zeo-mare Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 so this is for real they are planning a real live action movie? having the Weta team on it does not hurt, but i hope this does not come out as another G savior.
Anubis Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 Same stuff as before, but now with project on hold. They didn't even have a financer back before. It'll be a long time before anything new comes form this, if it ever does.
Mechamaniac Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 Weta Workshop has just released concept sketches of the movie, which has been put on hold for the moment:http://www.wetaworkshop.co.nz/projects/fil...lm/neon_genesis Cool, and let's hope it stays that way.
Blaine23 Posted April 22, 2005 Posted April 22, 2005 Dude, maybe I'm weird or something (okay, I'm sure I am)... but I think as far as preproduction sketches go... they look fantastic. I mean, you have to consider that preproduction sketches are pretty good ways away from finished film. The purpose of them is simply to define a world, get a feel for the look they're going for, etc. Costume designs, robot designs, settings - all of that changes dramatically once made to look "real" with CGI. WETA's a quality shop. If this movie had sucked nuts, it certainly wouldn't be their fault, IMO. It's the acting, script, and direction that is really hard to believe in for a project like this one. Anime to live action is going to happen, whether fans want it to or not. I think Evangelion would be a better choice than alot of the other anime I've watched simply because, for all it's weirdness, it is essentially a human story set in a world that is recognizable.
