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
― resident hack (Simon H.), Saturday, 1 December 2018 18:24 (five years ago) link
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?
― flappy bird, Saturday, 1 December 2018 23:56 (five years ago) link
there's possibly a new english dub: https://comicbook.com/anime/2018/11/30/neon-genesis-evangelion-netflix-dub-rei-voice-actor-comments/
― lowercase (eric), Sunday, 2 December 2018 00:08 (five years ago) link
hell yeah bring it on
someone should let me oversee the translation though j/k
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Sunday, 2 December 2018 00:18 (five years ago) link
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
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Sunday, 2 December 2018 00:21 (five years ago) link
I really like the original dub cast, this is a bummer.
― flappy bird, Sunday, 2 December 2018 00:27 (five years ago) link
huh maybe next year i'll start that evangelion podcast i've been wanting to do for years
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Sunday, 2 December 2018 00:54 (five years ago) link
you cannot settle for anything less than the original whiny Shinji voice actor

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?
― calstars, Sunday, 2 December 2018 22:45 (five years ago) link
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
― vision joanna newsom (Stevie D(eux)), Sunday, 2 December 2018 22:54 (five years ago) link
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
― lowercase (eric), Sunday, 2 December 2018 23:14 (five years ago) link
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
― lowercase (eric), Sunday, 2 December 2018 23:19 (five years ago) link
Don't read the manga before you've seen the show
― flappy bird, Sunday, 2 December 2018 23:34 (five years ago) link
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.
― flappy bird, Sunday, 2 December 2018 23:35 (five years ago) link
Cool thanks
― calstars, Monday, 3 December 2018 00:09 (five years ago) link
only go for subs, the early episodes of the old dub are extremely rocky
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Monday, 3 December 2018 00:53 (five years ago) link
the manga is written by the series' character designer after the show was finished; it's as much of an embellishment on the original story as the rebuild movies. mostly for ppl who are already fans
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Monday, 3 December 2018 00:55 (five years ago) link
was written*
ah sorry. just noticed the wiki page lacks citations regarding that so
― lowercase (eric), Monday, 3 December 2018 01:14 (five years ago) link
my stock "what to do before it's on netflix" suggestion is "watch kare kano"
― lowercase (eric), Monday, 3 December 2018 01:18 (five years ago) link
lol i was just thinking about kare kano today. i still have all the dvds. it's... idk if it's a great show or anything but it was very important to me in high school
― jolene club remix (BradNelson), Monday, 3 December 2018 04:38 (five years ago) link
i nearly owned every volume of the manga and read it to the end. it's fine, wasn't exactly worth it lol

yes this great show about the end of the world
― american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 22:41 (four years ago) link
idk about you but i cannot wait to watch a remastered eoe on my goddamn television
― american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 22:42 (four years ago) link
Excited. I haven't watched it in 15 years.
― jmm, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 22:44 (four years ago) link
any trailers yet with the new dub? I'm assuming subbed versions will also be available? right?....
― flappy bird, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 23:02 (four years ago) link
nope, no trailers with any dialogue
― american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 23:21 (four years ago) link
never tried to watch anime on netflix but boy i hope the sub is available
― american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 23:23 (four years ago) link
oh wait never mind, i have, aggretsuko counts, it had multiple language options, can't see why they wouldn't do that here too
― american bradass (BradNelson), Tuesday, 18 June 2019 23:31 (four years ago) link
ok cool
― flappy bird, Tuesday, 18 June 2019 23:43 (four years ago) link
very excited for this. planning to marathon it with pals.

fuuuuuuuuuck i wonder if i can talk my boo into this
― Good morning, how are you, I'm (Doctor Casino), Wednesday, 19 June 2019 01:02 (four years ago) link
will be watching
― calstars, Wednesday, 19 June 2019 01:23 (four years ago) link
Twitter thread posted up here by Nhex is amazing
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Wednesday, 19 June 2019 08:50 (four years ago) link
y'all i'm so excited
― american bradass (BradNelson), Thursday, 20 June 2019 17:18 (four years ago) link
and i own two dvd copies of the show and have watched it in its entirety at least 20 times if not more
― american bradass (BradNelson), Thursday, 20 June 2019 17:23 (four years ago) link
I'm even looking forward to the discourse cycle a little. It will be cool if the show finds a big new audience.
― jmm, Thursday, 20 June 2019 18:00 (four years ago) link
Pretty much a guarantee I think. I'm looking forward to it, too. Remains relevant (and amazing obviously...)
― flappy bird, Thursday, 20 June 2019 19:22 (four years ago) link
according to early reports: apparently streaming rights for "fly me to the moon" must be incredibly expensive
― american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 21 June 2019 08:39 (four years ago) link
and since my cats woke me up, i watched a few scenes of the new dub. cast is completely different but misato and shinji are weirdly sorta similar-sounding to allison jaffe and spike spencer (their old adv dub actors). old anime dub fans (and power rangers fans) will recognize johnny yong bosch in the cast as touji
