yellowlightman Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Saw 1.1 tonight in a theatre. Glad it ended not being a totally shot-for-shot remake, but the first half of the movie seemed like a waste. Oddly I saw a lot of females in the audience, and not just ones that were dragged their by their boyfriend. Weird. Quote
wolfx Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Eva definately has its female fanbase. On the screening i went, i heard female gasps and gushes during the few seconds of Kaworu screentime. Quote
Gubaba Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 Saw 1.1 tonight in a theatre. Glad it ended not being a totally shot-for-shot remake, but the first half of the movie seemed like a waste. Oddly I saw a lot of females in the audience, and not just ones that were dragged their by their boyfriend. Weird. I know...when I saw 1.0 last November, I spent the first half scratching my head, thinking, "Yeah, it looks wonderful, but why did they bother?" By the second half, I realized that they were going to screw with the formula a bit, and by the next episode preview, I finally understood that they were simply giving us something familiar before REALLY pulling the rug out from under us in 2.0...

Beltane70 Posted May 4, 2008 Posted May 4, 2008 The first movie was totally worth it just for the Ramiel fight alone! Quote
wolfx Posted May 7, 2008 Posted May 7, 2008 I think the pasta is awesome! http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2008-...lion-menu-items Quote
Mowe Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 (edited) I came across this very interesting article on a documentary about Anno talking to elementary school kids. Haven't seen the documentary, but from the article, you get the feeling that Anno was really in deep trouble prior (or may be still is) the making of the Eva TV. I am just amazed how such a talented and accomplished person could have such low self-esteem....wow, a real life Shinji... http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/buried-treasure/2007-05-03 Edited May 10, 2008 by Mowe Quote
Gubaba Posted May 10, 2008 Posted May 10, 2008 That IS interesting...wish I could see it. And yes, according to Anno, he spent four years more or less unable to get out of bed. According to his Gainax partners, though, it wasn't that bad. I'm not sure who to believe here... Quote
IXTL Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 (edited) Possible first clear look at Rebuild EVA-02 and EVA-06? Edited May 14, 2008 by IXTL Quote
wolfx Posted May 14, 2008 Posted May 14, 2008 Possible first clear look at Rebuild EVA-02 and EVA-06? Thanks for the pics. I don't really approve of the recolored torsos idea...... And abit disappointed that EVA 05 is the same but with different head. Quote
electric indigo Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 EVA-06 has horns. The head of 06 looks very "generic anime robot" like; did they kick Yamashita out of the design team? Quote
Mowe Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 (edited) Ummm....Unit-02 looks like a snell with those little horns. And Unit-06's head and colour scheme are a major disappointment... But I do like the leaner look of the bodies. Edited May 15, 2008 by Mowe Quote
CoryHolmes Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 http://zepy.momotato.com/2008/05/03/evange...or-high-prices/ Naked Rei reels are going for super expensive on the net. These people hurt my thinking place... Quote
Gubaba Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 Possible first clear look at Rebuild EVA-02 and EVA-06? I dunno...I can't quite explain why, but they look fan-made to me...At any rate, I'm suspicious. Quote
Phyrox Posted May 15, 2008 Posted May 15, 2008 That eva -06 looks pretty uninspired/uninteresting. I won't even comment on how lame the little horns look on -02. Quote
Gubaba Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 That eva -06 looks pretty uninspired/uninteresting. I won't even comment on how lame the little horns look on -02. Agreed. As I said before, I'm 99% positive those are fan-made. Quote
wolfx Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 Have u guys seen the next episode preview of 2.0? You see them and the images are quite accurate. But the images could be fanmade i agree. Quote
Gubaba Posted May 16, 2008 Posted May 16, 2008 Have u guys seen the next episode preview of 2.0? You see them and the images are quite accurate. Well...in the preview, you only see the EVA-02 in silhouette, so "quite accurate" is stretching things a bit... Quote
uminoken Posted May 26, 2008 Posted May 26, 2008 I'm a bit behind the times, but wasn't 2.0 supposed to be out this year? And has anyone heard word of ADV getting the dvd release of 1.0? Quote

It's still scheduled for this year, but there's no confirmation on when, yet. I'm expecting it to be released sometime between September and December. Quote
Keith Posted May 27, 2008 Posted May 27, 2008 I'm a bit behind the times, but wasn't 2.0 supposed to be out this year? And has anyone heard word of ADV getting the dvd release of 1.0? ADV can barely afford to put out the shows they already have right now. If they couldn't hold on to Gurren Lagann, there's little chance they'd be able to swing licensing the new movies. Hell, just what did they do with all that money they got from repeatedly re-releasing Eva? Quote

Keith Posted May 28, 2008 Posted May 28, 2008 I wonder just how much money they did lose on the developement of that. Truly one of the alltime bonehead moves. Quote

It's from the series where they do all the EVAs in Type-F armor. Quote

Mowe Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 They look foul, even to an Eva sucker like myself. Quote
IXTL Posted August 4, 2008 Posted August 4, 2008 (edited) k well that's good to know cuz the mass production is fugly Here are more pics from whatever series those ugly EVAs are from. EVA-00 and 02 are given the Type-F treatment in addition to EVA-01 and MP EVA. http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_451.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_450.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_449.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_448.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_447.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_446.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_445.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_444.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_443.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_442.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_441.jpg http://s151.photobucket.com/albums/s137/ul...FS_2008_440.jpg Edited August 4, 2008 by IXTL Quote
