neon genesis evangelion

also: i'm largely responsible for the literal end of the world hooray?

how disgusting

i have to watch all of the reboot movies

The final Rebuild movie is coming out in 2020!

https://kotaku.com/the-next-evangelion-movie-will-be-out-2020-1827741974/amp

promo art just looks like end of evangelion, which is great

steve did you watch the other rebuild movies? curious as to what you think of them (i was on the fence until 3.0, which i didn't even like at first but now think it's one of the boldest things anno's ever done, somehow)

ready for the madness

I’ve still only seen the first one

I just rewatched 1-26 + EoE w my new boo and he’s like freaking out. We finished EoE 15 minutes ago

RIP

I told Brad that I think shinji canceled instrumentality bcz it felt good and that was unfamiliar to him and he just wants to only feel pain

and he’s a fuckin little pipsqueak

well i finally got around to seeing shin godzilla, which is incredible and completely essential viewing for anyone who likes eva imo

i don't know if i'd go that far. it's a fun watch, but largely a satire of japanese government / the original Godzilla film

idk it totally has the feeling of an early evangelion episode

and the shot of godzilla's tail at the end is the francis bacon hellscapes of end of evangelion briefly swarming into the movie

and it may be a satire but it's also an extremely earnest one, the way it manages that tone is remarkable

also "angel attack" plays throughout for some reason

Party Rock Anthem has the same BPM as the Evangelion Opening and I hate it pic.twitter.com/UC2WzNF3zN

^will make me very unpopular at home

Good. Good. Now give us the dang blu-rays!

Wow. Great news.

I just finished the 2nd Rebuild movie this morning and WHOA

The Rebuilds are fun so far but 2 movies in it's like all action and no psychological turmoil

don’t speak too soon

lol!

when the FUCK is the next movie coming

projected date on the wikipedia page is 2020, which i sorta believe

<potentially too dark joke> which means the u.s. release will probably coincide with the actual end of the world </potentially too dark joke>

is Netflix doing dubs/subs or both? and better transfers of the movies?

there's possibly a new english dub: https://comicbook.com/anime/2018/11/30/neon-genesis-evangelion-netflix-dub-rei-voice-actor-comments/

hell yeah bring it on

someone should let me oversee the translation though j/k

feel bad for amanda winn lee though

as much as the dvd transfers for death/rebirth and eoe were dogshit and as much as the dub included some dodgy sound effects choices on her part, the people who translated the films did it perfectly

I really like the original dub cast, this is a bummer.

huh maybe next year i'll start that evangelion podcast i've been wanting to do for years

you cannot settle for anything less than the original whiny Shinji voice actor

i was just reading about zettai ryōiki on wikipedia yesterday

fucking weird shit

Do it Brad!!

I don’t know anything about this but saw the manga for sale today and the title looked familiar from SNA. Is it worth getting or is this more a film kinda thing?

brad if you ever decide to do an Eva pod I would be happy to supply technical assistance!!

brad if you ever decide to do an Eva pod I would be happy to supply myself as a guest

xxp iirc the manga differs from the series not insignificantly & ik some people who hate it-- recently saw it described roughly as "eva if the nerds w a shallow, unfeeling understanding of it & its characters were correct"-- but i can't offer up an opinion myself. prob safe not to get it

for context altho the first vols of the manga came out before the series, the latter & eva as a concept was conceived originally by hideaki anno, & the manga, written by someone else, is basically an alternate version

Don't read the manga before you've seen the show

Just in case they fuck up the dub you should try and find the series now and watch it. unless you're going subs anyway. I just have a sentimental attachment to the original English cast, and tbh they all held up nicely when I rewatched the series earlier this year.

Cool thanks
