arrow Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 does anyone have news on the planned live action neon genesis movie? Quote
JB0 Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 All I ever heard about it was that it was going to suck. Quote
azrael Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 WETA is still doing design sketches. So far, there are no studios that have shown a commitment. http://www.wetaworkshop.co.nz/projects/fil...lm/neon_genesis Quote
Guppy Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 cool sketeches at the Weta site.. It's weird seeing adult women in the plugsuits, instead of skinny teenagers. Quote
ogami Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 Those design sketches are disgraceful to the name Evangelion... Quote
Keith Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 I think it's officially on "backburner," so I'd be surprised at this point it it ever went past the planning stages. It shall most likely join its bretheren of the Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball, Starblazers, & Akira live action movies. Quote
Commander McBride Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 I sorta like them, actually. I've heard the movie is on "indefenite hiatus" Quote
Skull Leader Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 Eva is practically it's own religion in Japan. I wouldn't doubt that the collective otaku community paid the Yakuza to "insure" that this would never happen. LOL a shame too. I was actually looking forward to seeing WETA put this into action.

Skull Leader Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 I sorta like them, actually.I've heard the movie is on "indefenite hiatus" LOL, pretty much consigned to the same hell has "Macross: Final Outpost Earth" live action movie. Quote
Gaijin Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 Those design sketches are disgraceful to the name Evangelion... Design sketches for movies almost always look nothing like what appears on screen in the final. But yeah, I know what you mean. Quote
Max Jenius Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 I like the designs. Very organic. The people look stupid. Quote
LinxCrossq Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 After watching that sketch of Misato I felt like taking my eyes out with a spoon. I didn't do it because I need them to watch more anime. Quote
Sumdumgai Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 Misato looks like she got hit in the face by a brick... Repeatedly. Rei looks alright to me. Asuka needs to be stabbed in the face just because I don't like the character. I'm terrified by the idea of seeing Shinji in a plug suit... Quote
UN_MARINE Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 (edited) The only thing I'm touchin' this thing with, is a NUKE Seriously, how many east-to-west adaptations have we seen that WEREN'T total disasters? I'm stayin' clear of this one. And the one after. And the next.... Edited May 31, 2005 by UN_MARINE Quote

bsu legato Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 It shall most likely join its bretheren of the Sailor Moon, Dragon Ball, Starblazers, & Akira live action movies. In Hell! Fixed it for you. Quote
Fort Max Posted May 31, 2005 Posted May 31, 2005 I was looking forward to it, WETA did some great work for LOTR and the West NEEDS at least one imagination firing (read OTT inspiring flasy ohh, ahh effects) giant robot movie to inspire countless clones and get the genre recognized. Quote

kanata67 Posted June 1, 2005 Posted June 1, 2005 I just saw part of the live action "la blue girl" the other day I don't think I want to see any more live action for a while Quote
