Happened to catch this with my TiVo. The Sci-Fi channel now has their own anime block (Ani-Mondays) to cash in on Adult Swim's success. To launch the block they will be airing Ghost in the Shell: Solid State Society on Monday, June 11th at 11pm eastern. I can't even find mention of this on their website other than on the schedule. For those of you who don't know, Solid State Society is a direct sequel to GitS: 2nd Gig. Yeah, I would have preferred another season but I'm not complaining. No idea if it's dubbed or subbed. Here's what I could find...

So would I have to see 2nd gig to understand what is happening in the movie? I have seen the first season of "Stand alone Complex" but the second season is sitting in my Netflix queue.

Something scifi-ish on the sci-fi channel? Are you sure about that?

I've only caught bits and pieces of the two seasons, but I'll definitely set the DVR for this.

I couldn't tell you for sure. I can't really think of any 'dependencies' that you would need to know. 2nd Gig seemed to be pretty self contained.
