Ghost in the Shell

The&nbsp;Ghost in the Shell&nbsp;anime has been considered one of the classics since its release in 1995. After&nbsp;Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex&#39;s syndication&nbsp;in the United States, many Americans came to love the franchise&#39;s poignant themes and compelling soundtracks. That&#39;s probably why it made waves when it was announced that the live-action&nbsp;Ghost in the Shell&nbsp;production was finally coming to Western audiences.

Of course, the rose-colored glasses didn&#39;t last long.&nbsp;Ghost in the Shell&nbsp;thrust itself into controversy early on with its decision to partake in one of Hollywood&#39;s sketchiest traditions. Sure, almost any film is open to <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/controversial-casting-decisions/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">casting controversies</a>, but casting Polish American Scarlett Johansson as the Japanese character Motoko&nbsp;Kusanagi certainly didn&#39;t help much.

Whitewashing aside,&nbsp;Ghost in the Shell&nbsp;still has plenty of magic happening backstage. Its&nbsp;lauded visual effects will likely inspire the industry for years to come. Here&#39;s a list of everything you would&nbsp;want to know about DreamWorks&#39;&nbsp;Ghost in the Shell.

A Goofy Movie

There can be no doubt that Goofy is one of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-cartoon-characters-on-tv/greg-hahn" target="_blank">the best cartoon characters on TV</a>. Both <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/why-a-goofy-movie-is-the-best-disney-cartoon-ever/brandon-michaels?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">A Goofy Movie</a> and An Extremely Goofy Movie are probably some of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/my-favorite-cartoons-of-all-time" target="_blank">the best cartoons of all time</a>. That&#39;s partly some millennial nostalgia,&nbsp;but it&#39;s also that they&#39;re so heartwarming to watch. Goofy is an amazing role model and an even better father. That he cares for his moody son Max as a single father&nbsp;and still manages to show kindness and compassion at the hardest of times makes him an aspirational figure for fathers everywhere.&nbsp;

Death

Mortician Caitlin Doughty, known for her blog (The Order of the Good Death) and YouTube channel (Ask A Mortician), is a bit of a controversial figure in the death industry. Her frank and lighthearted approach to discussing death practices has made her a viral sensation - a sensation that compels viewers to question what will happen to their bodies after they&#39;ve passed.

Of course, there&#39;s no saying for sure how you&#39;ll meet your end&nbsp;(especially considering some of the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/morticians-reveal-their-weirdest-cases/lowe-saddler" target="_blank">wild cadavers morticians deal with</a>), but it&#39;s worth putting in some advanced thought. Doughty is a vocal advocate for natural alternative burials and funerals with plenty of family involvement. But that hasn&#39;t made her the most well-liked woman in the traditional death industry.

Hell

It may come as a surprise, but hell wasn&#39;t always the fire and brimstone world it&#39;s described as nowadays. The origin of hell as we know it is a combination of historical and artistic influences from far and beyond the Bible - and&nbsp;most&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-hell-looks-like-history/erin-mccann" target="_blank">paintings of hell</a>&nbsp;throughout history are not reflective of&nbsp;what the Good Book describes. When it comes to Christian myth, Satan himself wasn&#39;t even a fleshed out character until Milton wrote about him&nbsp;in his legendary story&nbsp;<a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/satan-in-paradise-lost-facts/inigo-gonzalez" target="_blank">Paradise Lost</a>.

It should&nbsp;be no surprise, then, that the origin of hell comes from the Valley of Hinnom, thought to be referred to in the&nbsp;Bible as Gehenna. This mysterious valley&nbsp;now known as Gehenna holds many secrets lost to history. Its child sacrifices, pagan gods, and ever burning fires have given rise to plenty of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/where-did-all-the-most-prominent-elements-of-satanic-imagery-come-from-/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">Satanic imagery</a>. It&#39;s enough to beg the question: is Gehenna hell?

No one ever said video games were supposed to be easy - or predictable. Classics like Dark Souls and Ninja Gaiden&nbsp;- which rank among the <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/hardest-video-games-of-all-time/ranker-games" target="_blank">most difficult games of all time</a> - have elevated gaming skills to rare levels.

Generally,&nbsp;though, games are&nbsp;expected to be beatable. Boss fights are just a matter of finding the right method or honing the right reflexes. That&#39;s why it&#39;s so shocking when a game&#39;s hero gets beaten down. Some games use that shock to <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/emotional-video-games/collin-flatt" target="_blank">dial up the emotional stakes</a>&nbsp;and motivate the player to make it to the end.&nbsp;There&#39;s nothing more tragic than the passing&nbsp;of a fan favorite, after all.&nbsp;

This list collects the most brutal takedowns - the vicious pummelings, the heartbreaking ends - of video game protagonists.

Hayao Miyazaki

Astrology is an ancient art that can predict the future, reveal secrets about your personality, and even match you to Miyazaki&nbsp;characters based on your zodiac sign. Maybe it's a little unconventional to star sign traditionalists, but nerdy astrology is far from unheard of. Your zodiac sign&nbsp;can even tell you <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/naruto-character-zodiac/crystal-brackett" target="_blank">what Naruto character you are</a>, or <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/patronus-based-on-zodiac-sign/allison-walter" target="_blank">what your patronus would be</a>. Whether you're a die-hard astrology fanatic, or just think it's harmless fun - pop culture astrology is here to help you understand yourself though the things you love.

Witchcraft

Whether they call it magic, magick, witchcraft, or Wicca,&nbsp;people have been practicing the supernatural arts for centuries. It&#39;s suspected that many of the rich and <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/famous-people-black-magic-occult/isadora-teich" target="_blank">famous</a> found the limelight&nbsp;by channeling gods and devils. For those of us who haven&#39;t made it big yet, that kind of success is a very tempting offer. Better yet, it may just be a few candles and a couple&nbsp;of&nbsp;prayers away from becoming reality.

Practitioners from all over the world come together on sites like Reddit to share their knowledge and experiences. They post spells, rituals, and techniques to help each other reach the outcomes that they desire. This list brings together some of the most interesting stories about spells that actually worked out for the caster. Who knows, maybe some up-and-coming magicians will be inspired along the way.

Fan Made

Vintage video games are revered for a reason. There&#39;s a timeless quality to <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-classic-video-games" target="_blank">classic video games</a>. Sometimes, it&#39;s gameplay&nbsp;or story, but far more commonly, the thing that defines a classic game is its art. The simplicity of pixels allows creators to focus on the artistry of a game&#39;s visuals, focusing on color and aesthetics rather than polygon count. The timelessness of pixel art is exactly why game developers keep coming back to it, even in the era of AAA open-world 3D spectacles.

But it&#39;s not just developers using pixel art. Fans have been making their own artistic renderings of games for as long as games have been around. In recent years, games like <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-overwatch-fan-art/brandon-michaels" target="_blank">Overwatch</a> have been getting more attention than ever for their fan art. But some fan artists won&#39;t settle for using the traditional mediums of art: drawing and painting. They want to make their mark in the traditional style of games.

Here are&nbsp;some of the best pixel art remakes of&nbsp;the most popular modern games around. From&nbsp;Guitar Hero&nbsp;to&nbsp;Horizon Zero Dawn, no game is safe from these beautiful blends of nostalgia and modernism.

Great Moments in Gaming

Graveyard Shift

It&#39;s not hard to find scares in throwback video games, especially since spooky moments aren&#39;t always restricted to the horror genre. While people go into games like Resident Evil&nbsp;or Silent Hill&nbsp;knowing they&#39;re in for some chills, not even the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-scariest-video-games-of-all-time-" target="_blank">scariest games of all time</a> can hope to reproduce the shock of finding something terrifying in an otherwise lighthearted experience.&nbsp;

This juxtoposition&nbsp;is part of what helped many&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/best-classic-video-games" target="_blank">classic video games</a>&nbsp;make names for themselves. Taking risks and surprising players with something unexpected (and often horrifying) helped the likes of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time&nbsp;and&nbsp;Super Mario World&nbsp;stick in players&#39; minds. Other games like&nbsp;Oddworld: Abe&#39;s Oddysee&nbsp;lay the horror on thick the whole time, offering existential terror at every turn. Like it or not, the most distressing moments in games aimed at children&nbsp;stay burnt into memories to this day.

Firsthand Accounts

Naturism is a movement dedicated to practicing nudity in a variety of social contexts. For some this means feeling comfortable without covering in their own home;&nbsp;for others, it means attending resorts and events in which they can be bare with other people. Many adherents stress that not wearing clothing is a non-sexual state of being, and in naturist communites there is great emphasis placed on making sure everyone is comfortable. There are even codified <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/nudist-colony-rules/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">sets of rules</a> unique to every community to ensure nobody&#39;s boundaries are crossed.

They may choose to raise their children with the practice. Often it is a choice for the child, and families may wish to set rules to make sure everyone is comfortable. Former children of these communities have taken to Reddit to share their stories, and we&#39;ve collected some of the best ones in this list. From embarassing anecdotes&nbsp;to feelings on&nbsp;body image&nbsp;to the mechanics of keeping your neighbors from spying, it&#39;s all here.

Many people fear what they might discover from taking an online DNA test, and for good reason. Those&nbsp;willing to set aside their reservations often find there are substantial benefits to online DNA tests. Families reunite, personal discoveries are celebrated, and genetic diseases are detected early. Genealogy websites have even&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/genealogy-sites-solve-murder-cases/jodi-smith" target="_blank">solved murders</a>&nbsp;and revealed&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/shocking-secrets-from-genealogy-websites/melissa-sartore" target="_blank">shocking family secrets</a>. Despite the bright side of genealogy websites, there&#39;s also a danger that they can reveal&nbsp;truths&nbsp;never meant to come to light.&nbsp;

On Reddit, users are sharing their troublesome 23andMe, Promethease, and <a href="https://track.flexlinkspro.com/a.ashx?foid=1142336.8058120&amp;foc=1&amp;fot=9999&amp;fos=1&amp;fobs=2760249&amp;fobs2=comlink" target="_blank">AncestryDNA</a> results and the stories behind them. It comes as no surprise that many of these stories&nbsp;are downright upsetting. Is it better to be sure of your ancestry, even if the results could devastate you?&nbsp;These Redditors took a leap of faith&nbsp;that unfortunately fell a bit short.&nbsp;

The Life of an Actor

Sarah Paulson

Sarah Paulson is an actress who rose to fame with the success of FX&#39;s&nbsp;American Horror Story. Fresh off the heels of <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/american-horror-story-apocalypse-recap-every-episode/maggie-clancy" target="_blank">AHS:&nbsp;Apocalypse</a>, Paulson prepared for her role in 2019&#39;s&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/everything-we-know-about-the-glass-trilogy/bailey-benningfield" target="_blank">Glass</a>.&nbsp;But how did her career begin?

Paulson was born in Tampa, FL, in 1974; she moved to New York City with her mother several years later. She made her TV debut&nbsp;in the early &#39;90s on&nbsp;Law and Order. Throughout most of the early 2000s, she bounced between film and stage, appearing in comedies like&nbsp;What Women Want. After making it big with&nbsp;American Horror Story,&nbsp;Paulson began to entertain more significant roles. Movies like&nbsp;12 Years a Slave, The Post,&nbsp;and&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-bird-box-memes/rebecca-high" target="_blank">Bird Box</a>&nbsp;have cemented Paulson as a figure to be reckoned with in the acting industry.

SpongeBob SquarePants

It should come as no surprise that there are hidden themes in&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-and-funniest-spongebob-episodes-list/reference" target="_blank">SpongeBob SquarePants</a>. There are plenty of complex <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/spongebob-squarepants-fan-theories/jordan-love" target="_blank">fan theories</a>&nbsp;out there, including one claiming Pearl was adopted by Mr. Krabs and another postulating that the residents of Bikini Bottom are&nbsp;immortal. It&#39;s even possible to connect each of the characters to one of <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/spongebob-characters-seven-deadly-sins/erin-wisti" target="_blank">the seven deadly sins</a>.&nbsp;

But the real message of SpongeBob SquarePants&nbsp;might be even more profound: One fan theory states that the show actively deconstructs the very economic system under which it was created. From the caricature of Mr. Krabs as an extreme capitalist to&nbsp;Squidward&#39;s relationship to his art, some aspects of SpongeBob SquarePants have led fans to believe the Nickelodeon cartoon has a secret mission to convert kids to communism - or at the very least expose them to the injustices of workplace mistreatment.

This list compiles notable instances of SpongeBob revealing its anti-capitalist agenda. Surprising as it may seem, there are many.

Know Your Demons

King Paimon is one of the many spirits found within the <a href="https://www.thecut.com/2018/06/witches-discuss-the-demon-paimon-in-hereditary.html" target="_blank">Lesser Key of Solomon</a> who still inspires modern minds. The demon supposedly promises endless knowledge in all manner&nbsp;of hidden secrets, and he&#39;s made his way into pop culture through his integral role in the movie&nbsp;Hereditary.

With Hereditary&#39;s ending now explained, some may be wondering how someone can summon one of the four kings of hell.&nbsp;Though there are no guarantees when it comes to successfully summoning Paimon, people have provided methods and facts you&#39;d need to know before attempting it.&nbsp;Be careful, because while&nbsp;not everything written about demons is true, some of it might be - so summon at your own risk.

The Conjuring Franchise

It&#39;s not every day that a demon gets name-dropped on the big screen, but&nbsp;Valak&#39;s&nbsp;certainly been making a splash. For those who want to know <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/ways-to-summon-the-devil/brandon-michaels?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">how to summon</a> Valak, the internet has your back. Be careful, though: The <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/who-is-valak-the-nun/maggie-clancy" target="_blank">demon from&nbsp;The Conjuring universe</a>&nbsp;isn&#39;t quite how he appears in the movies. In fact, a grain of salt <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/apu-should-be-taken-off-the-simpsons/anncasano?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">should be taken</a> whenever learning about demons, whether it&#39;s on the internet or in films. After all, demonology isn&#39;t&nbsp;a precise science.

That&nbsp;said, whatever happens when summoning&nbsp;Valak&nbsp;happens at your own risk - possession and all.

Succubus

Succubi are female demons who&nbsp;take the form of beautiful women and invade the dreams of men. According to folklore, they feast on men&#39;s bodily fluids and take their life force along the way. Needless to say, <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/scary-stories-about-succubi/cheryl-adams-richkoff" target="_blank">succubi are scary</a>. However, if someone wants to summon a succubus, a little precautionary folklore isn&#39;t going to stop them.

Unfortunately,&nbsp;the internet is full of misleading &quot;<a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/ways-to-summon-the-devil/brandon-michaels?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">how to summon</a> a succubus&quot; rituals, and everything read should be taken with a grain of salt.

Pushing Daisies

Pushing Daisies&nbsp;is remembered for its lighthearted and romantic atmosphere that touched many viewers. Like countless&nbsp;other <a href="https://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/tv-shows-canceled-before-their-time" target="_blank">great TV shows</a>, it was canceled before its time, running for&nbsp;only two seasons before becoming a casualty of the Writers Guild of America strike of 2007. Helmed&nbsp;by&nbsp;Hannibal&nbsp;creator&nbsp;Bryan Fuller, Pushing Daisies&nbsp;has developed something of a niche following in the years since its cancellation. Dedicated fans&nbsp;have&nbsp;eagerly petitioned for it&nbsp;to be picked&nbsp;up again, and Fuller himself&nbsp;has&nbsp;even&nbsp;<a href="http://twitter.com/BryanFuller/status/1001538522631749632" target="_blank">pitched a reboot</a> to ABC via Twitter.&nbsp;

The premise of Pushing Daisies is unique, to say the least. Ned the pie-maker can raise people who have perished by touching them - but only at the cost of another life. Furthermore, if he has physical contact with the reanimated person a&nbsp;second time, they are gone for good. When he learns his childhood sweetheart, Chuck, was slain, he revives her. They rekindle their relationship, but they can never touch again. The couple&nbsp;teams up with a disgruntled private investigator and Ned&#39;s brightly dressed employee to solve&nbsp;cases for reward money.&nbsp;

The show&#39;s quirkiness often overshadows the most disturbing scenes from Pushing Daisies. From sinister stories of macabre snowmen to darkly humorous tales of magic tricks gone awry,&nbsp;the creepiest Pushing Daisies&nbsp;scenes&nbsp;are what make the show&nbsp;so unforgettable.&nbsp;

The U.S. Department of Justice defines "outlaw motorcycle gangs" (OMGs) as "organizations whose members use their motorcycle clubs as conduits for criminal enterprises."

Outlaws on Wheels

biker gangs

The bōsōzoku, which are Japanese motorcycle clubs,&nbsp;have&nbsp;existed since the 1950s. Born out of&nbsp;post-war counterculture and an expanding automobile market, bōsōzoku&nbsp;riders&nbsp;took to the streets on heavily customized bikes to show off&nbsp;their social influence.&nbsp;

While traditionally boys&#39; clubs, the&nbsp;bōsōzoku&nbsp;have a version of American biker&nbsp;&quot;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/old-lady-members-of-biker-gangs/jacob-shelton" target="_blank">old ladies</a>,&quot; and in recent years, the Japanese motorcycle clubs have become more inclusive through necessity - their numbers are steadily declining. Nevertheless, members of the youthful Japanese counterculture have made their presence known via&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/explore/tags/b%C5%8Ds%C5%8Dzoku/" target="_blank">#bōsōzoku</a>&nbsp;on Instagram, and they continue to ride freely through the streets of Japan.&nbsp;

Game Is Life

The video games industry -&nbsp;like many others -&nbsp;is still trying to figure itself out. There&#39;s no tried and true method to creating a great game, as players&#39; interests change across generations and fun is always subjective. On the plus side, this means the next big game can come out of left field;&nbsp;PlayerUnknown&#39;s&nbsp;Battlegrounds&nbsp;started off as a mod for the military simulator&nbsp;ARMA 2&nbsp;but ended up establishing an entirely new genre of <a class="edS-cl" href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-online-multiplayer-games/ranker-games?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">online multiplayer games</a>. Unfortunately, it also means developers often opt to take the safe route by only creating games that are in line with what&#39;s currently hot.&nbsp;

One of the main reasons <a href="http://www.ranker.com/list/why-good-developers-release-bad-games/joesph-langdon" target="_blank">why developers make bad games</a> is they&nbsp;stops taking risks to theoretically maximize profits. This is a leading cause of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/stale-gaming-franchises/robert-carnevale" target="_blank">stale game&nbsp;franchises</a>&nbsp;and some of the most annoying video game trends every big-budget release seems to glom onto.&nbsp;

What&#39;s most frustrating is many of modern gaming&#39;s worst trends simply weren&#39;t issues in generations past.&nbsp;Before early access and day one patches, new games had to be finished and playable before they shipped, and there was no chance the best parts of a story would be locked behind paid DLC. Hopefully the&nbsp;good developers will learn from the past before gamers end up with an industry built on&nbsp;hot garbage.

Things Modern Games Need To Stop Doing

Even lovable, lazy, lasagna-loving cartoon cat Garfield cannot escape the creepy artistic treatment.&nbsp;The internet is&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/scary-pictures/brian-gilmore" target="_blank">no stranger to scary pictures</a>, nor is this the first time Garfield has received <a href="http://dubblebaby.blogspot.com/2013/10/blog-post_21.html" target="_blank">the nightmare treatment</a>. But now, artists like William Burke&nbsp;and Lumpy are spreading the gospel of eldritch&nbsp;Garfield to the masses - apparently uncaring about the sleepless nights they&#39;ll cause.

Burke started with an eldritch Garfield portending doom and the end of the world. Lumpy&nbsp;was more than happy to remix that idea into a horror game straight from Satan&#39;s Game Boy&nbsp;case. Among them are other artists, taking nightmare-fuel Garfield in different directions, including warped and distorted&nbsp;3D models&nbsp;and <a href="http://www.mezzacotta.net/garfield/?comic=2088" target="_blank">Zalgo Garfield</a>.

In fact, NBC has made some of the <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/the-greatest-sitcoms-in-television-history" target="_blank">greatest sitcoms in television history</a>.&nbsp;It comes as no surprise to most &#39;90s TV viewers that the&nbsp;Cheers&nbsp;spinoff&nbsp;Frasier&nbsp;is near the top of that list.

Oh, there&#39;s an adult playroom that doubles as a bathroom? Somehow, the realtor has to make that seem like an investment for the savvy buyer. There&#39;s a strange man living in the basement? Potential tenants can charge him rent and earn an additional form of income.

The point is, realtors see some pretty outrageous things, and they share their amazing stories on Reddit.

TV Trivia

The rise and fall of Spike TV is a tragic tale. Now rebranded&nbsp;as the Paramount Network, Spike had a 15-year run that produced&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/best-spike-tv-shows/voteable" target="_blank">some pretty great programming</a>, but that wasn&#39;t enough to stop the channel&nbsp;from <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-happened-to-g4-tv/melissa-brinks" target="_blank">going the way of G4</a>.

Spike TV&#39;s downfall can be attributed&nbsp;to its niche branding and&nbsp;public image. Executives wanted you to know that they ran a&nbsp;network that was very male-dominated. While this was well-received in 2003, the pitch isn&#39;t exactly&nbsp;attractive&nbsp;in an era when masculinity is often viewed as regressive. It doesn&#39;t help that, in its later years, the network was forced to directly compete&nbsp;with more modern channels&nbsp;like Viceland. At the start,&nbsp;Spike TV was touted as &quot;<a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20071016204031/http://broadcastingcable.com/article/CA293348.html" target="_blank">the first network for men</a>&quot; by&nbsp;founder Albie Hecht. Given what happened to Spike TV in the decade and a half that followed, it&#39;s safe to assume that the channel can also be referred to as the last of its kind.&nbsp;
