thanks, i appreciate it. Good to know the different projects aren’t too dependent on one another

Most GitS installments are unconnected. The only actuel sequel to the original movie is the followup movie “Innocence” which is a very different beast. You can find a complete relation graph on AniDB.
My recommendation would be to watch the “Standalone Complex” series (2 seasons + 1 special) from the early 2000’s. It’s top tier even though the CG does show its age. Then if you want more you could go ahead and watch the “Arise” tv show from 2015, not bad but not as good as SAC.
I would strongly advise against watching the recent Netflix SAC_2045 : it’s painfully bad and ugly-looking.

I second this and also advise diving into SAC head first. Easily has one of the best soundtracks out there to boot. Yoko Kanno did some incredible work in my opinion on that one. Stay away from SAC_2045 though. It really was pretty terrible.
