I'd argue the first film is an exemplary instance of 'adapting' the idea of anime to film. Like The Thing being a good reimagining, it might be a singular example.
Nah was a "big budget" movie with ScarJo as the major. It sucked, although the opening scene was very close to being a frame for frame copy [minus the nipples] as it was in the anime and there were other similar scenes throughout however the movie was just awful.

It's certainly a better live action adaptation of Ghost in the Shell than the actual GitS adaptation was.
I was fortunate enough not to know that existed. I shall now pretend to not know. Let me guess, Pedoflix?

Because something the 2017 movie really should have done is that sequence with the original song as many fans then went on to edit
