Welcome to Gaia! ::

I dont know. I really dont want to make a judgement before I see the actual product, because I dont think I'm one to judge a book by it's cover.

Evangelion was meant to be a series/manga. It was made for anime. Imfo, no anime should go live action.
It ruins whatever integrity the original animated version had. I don't see why people think it's necessary, but whatever the case it happens anyways.

I just really hope they do something decent. Or like, if they were to base it around a certain angel attack or situation.

Then they'd be able to have the cliche, Enemy attacks, reluctant boy hero must save world with the company of a funny yet stern heavy drinking guardian, a silent weird girl, and a loud opinionated b***h.
Boy finally saves world, ememy threat is no longer, boy gets the girl, everyone is somewhat happy. The end.

Exactly what girl would Shinji get? Any ending where Asuka's just like "Oh, I give up everything I've ever thought on a whim because Shinji's just so manly" is not my kind of ending. And any ending that ends in incest is just creepy.

Maybe they could base it off the Zeurel fight. That involved all three pilots fighting it and would end with people being able to go "man, that Shinji kicked a**." I'd rather it was based off the Asuka VS Mutant Seagulls fight, but I think that would only please Asuka fangirls and boys (but then everyone could go, "Man, that Asuka was ********' awesome!").

Anyways, I've decided to reserve judgement until I've seen the movie, or at least some details are released. Until then, there's no point in getting worked up over it, really.

I shall wait to see after it comes out 3nodding


But... isn't it going to be produced in America? gonk

for all the people who say " i'll wait till it comes out." this is for news and people who will come randomly in and spam the boards saying how it will suck. we just need a place for this as it will eventually be needed.

I think we all saw this coming from a mile away. An American Hollywood company, in control of a bizarre storyline with bizarre characters and bizarre enemies, must filter out the yawn material and put more emphasis on the giant robots creating explosions. By the way, has anyone ever seen a really good anime based off of American art and direction?

Once more, as fans who are poking and proding for more information about this movie, there is not much left to see since the sketches. This is more of a topic to leave in the back of your mind, not in the middle. 2 years is a long time.

ill be there at the first showing on the first day in the cheapest theater here. if the movie bastardizes the series. all ******** hell will be brought upon them. and by them, i mean the unfortunate people who are in the theater with me

i see your point. but i have to disagree, if the movie fails the anime as a whole will lose immense potential profit. and will also be looked down upon. you have to remember that christians, which unfortunately make up a majority of this nation hate the anime(i know Ashram, dont bother). so we already have that working against us. all in all weve got alot to prove and an ignorant body to prove it to.


if we succeed im scared.
if we fail, well that would be better for the series as a whole
