Evangelion 1.0: You Are (Not) Alone


UN Spacy

Recommended Posts

So other than the new logo designs and re-takes on the Evangelions, how do you think the Rebuild will differ from V1.0?

They say they'll be adding a new character... I wonder just how much 'new' they'll be installing between the angel battles. There's already one difference- Shamshel (the fourth), disappears rather than 'dies'. So the whole scene of examining the angel is probably out (and Shinji observing his father's burned hands will be re-located/rehashed).

Screw new character I want MANA~!

from the original Iron Girlfriend Eva dating sim.

but whatever, I just wonder if it will be interesting.

BTW the rebuild won't differ from 1.0 cause that's what it's actually called... Evangelion 1.0 check out the topic title.

I thought it meant "hey, original series (v1.0), you're not alone!"

Didn't Gainax make GfoS1? While I think it would be neat to have Mana and the Trident robots show up in canon Eva, I think there will be many people who voice the contrary and would just rather have GFoS disappear entirely.

I think Eva fans should simply treat the ReBuilt Project as an A-Grade Eva porn. The Omuff factor won't be the story line or new character. I am guessing it will be a galore of stunning cinematography. Many of the TV scenes had great potential but I was never quite satisfied with the quality or length. I am stocking my pop corn already… :D

Won't Kaworu be making a much earlier appearance? The picture from the first page of this thread seems to indicate that and I think I remember reading it somewhere as well...

I have hope for Shinji in these new movies... hope for another chance to prove that he isn't just a gimp.

What will the 2nd movie end battle be? The Eva ballet? :lol: (asuka and shinji double team up on a poor Angel).

And the start will be a kick ass re-do of the batteship fight!

It's interesting to see 3D animation applied when the animators deliberately attempt to make it a cartoon.

I find the 3D usage pretty damned jarring, even in the low quality trailer. It's especially contrasting with all of the desaturated pallet tones. The characters look like dead right copy's from the manga though!

That would be alright with me - she and Eva-02 will probaly make a very big entrance with the next movie.

This should actually be a good strategy, more screen time for Eva-01 - I never got enough Eva-01 action in the TV and movie.

Asuka isn't in the first movie because it will only cover the events leading up to episode 6, i.e. before Asuka's appearance.

I hope the fight scene between Eva-01 and Sachiel is as brutal (if not more so) than in the tv series. I remember the first time watching Evangelion, being blown away by the animation quality and the brutality of that first fight, which I loved.

Me too, the first time I saw how an Eva move and attack, I had tinkles down my spine.

But I was also very confused because the Eva-01 vs Sachiel scene were spread over a couple of episodes and they were jumping between different sequences (some were Shinji’s flash back and some were Misato’s report), it just didn’t have the fluidity and length it deserved.

Lets hope we’ll see the fight in its entirety with bone crunching sound effects (and John Woo’s slow-motion choreography – the Youtube clips seems to indicated that the director had added this new dimension to the new movie)

Damn, it is moment like this that you wish you are a Japanese and living in Japan.... which I am not either :(

Actually, anyone knows who is in charge of this movie and how much influences will be coming from Anno?

The Japanese fans might have wanted to kill him but I think he is still the father of the Evas and we need him to make Eva quirky - please surprise me with another stunning opening scene, the masturbation scene in the hospital was a touch from the devil.... :rolleyes:

Less than a month to go folks.

Actually, was it ADV who put out the D&R and EOE? I thought it was Rei's English voice's (what was her name...) company that took over the EVA. You reckon there will be a battle for this one?

Even though the movies aren't done yet, I'm really surprised ADV didn't announce a license aquisition at the summer con season.

Manga Video put out D&R as well as EOE.

I wonder if ADV will shell out for this one since they just picked up Gurren Lagann as well.

In the current state Manga is in, I seriously doubt they'll snag this license. Hell, I'm surprised they were able to get the movies the first time around. Manga did use most of ADV's dub cast though.

Amen...

It wouldn't be so bad if it was Rei visiting Auska at the hosiptal.... :lol:

But please, no more jerking off Shinji. That was bad the first time :lol:

Oh...and I still think Utada and her pop tunes are spoiling EVA.

Could be worse, could be Ayumi Hamasaki... not that I don't like Ayumi, but comparatively, Utada's voice is a better match.

Personally, I think it would be wonderful if the movie just opened up with Zankoku na Tenshi no Teze or even Tamashii no Rufuran. Who knows, maybe Yoko Takahashi's agent asked for too much?

Yeah, a remix of any of these two would complete the package for me. I just think since the first 2 movies are more like a remake than a new story, it would be more appropriate to keep the original main themes or scores. Takahashi might not look the hottest, but she can sure belt out those Eva tunes.

Anyhow, just spotted this on you tube:
