Yeah, I don't like that. Naming your documentary the same name as a movie from the early 90's is a choice. A confusing choice.

you mean Ghost in the Shell, the anime that was named after the 1949 philosophical concept of a ghost in the machine, which the documentary is named after? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghost_in_the_machine

i find this comment fascinating because i don’t see what’s particularly confusing about the 90’s. why not the 70’s?

So everything that exists must have different names? It’s very common for things of all kinds to have the same name, no matter if they’re at all related or not. And it’s obviously much less of a “problem” when they’re not related and in completely different categories. You’re being mad over absolutely nothing.
