Should I watch the original first? Or 2.0? Just curious which would be better.
Never mind, after asking about 10 people. 9 of them said 1995.

Add one more to that total. The use of CG was to damn jarring and it's not like the 1995 version is bad looking by any means.

Go with the 1995 version first, then watch Stand Alone Complex (both seasons) and the other movies.

You'll probably watch them all again someday.

Just finished the 1995 version, and watched 2.0 last week. I liked 2.0 better. The graphics looked cleaner, and honestly, I didn't see too much switching between CG and not (but if there was, I just didn't notice it, so maybe it was integrated more seamlessly after the first scene). But the real dealbreaker was the dialogue: the dialogue was much more clear in 2.0. So much easier to understand.

I recommend 2.0 instead.
