it would be too early to reveal anything

Nobody knows. The movie could come out this summer.
It's not like Anno hasdn't done films in 2 years or less.
Or it comes out in three years. Only Anno knows.

Still, I'd say it seems like a good place to announce something due to the other stuff coming out. Seems like perfect hype building.
The TV show being aired, an artbook collecting the last ten years of art plus a talk show.

Btw, as I saw a few days ago in a message written by EvaMonkey on reddit, 1.0's release date was given less than two months before it came out.
It's 100% impossible to predict anything, so I guess I'd rather be an optimist.

I could see them giving us the official English title or the "color" of the movie.

Note: Don't remember when it came out exactly but the original announcement trailer for Rebuild of Evangelion specifically said 1.0 was going to be released domestically in Japan on September 1st, 2007.

I'm thinking this trailer came out in January of that year but 1.0 had a set release date way WAY earlier than 2 months. The release date could have even been given at the initial announcement back in August 2006 for all I can recall.

This March date sounds good for something though.

Maybe EvaMonkey misremembered.
I can't speak to that because in 2006 I was 10 and didn't even know Evangelion was a thing lol.

I'm still thinking the marketing will be unpredictable.

I go back and forth between thinking white is the color or that it has yet to be revealed.
The second 3.0 Groundwork book already used white as its color though (to differentiate it from the first, which was blue).

I totally expect the title to be positive. Something like You can (not) give up. Or maybe You can (not) run away. (that would be a nice way to bookend it).

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it announced that an external company would handle the film's marketing?
I suppose these marketing people will still be khara staff right?

It's white, or am I missing something?

It was scheduled for "Summer 2007" when the Rebuild of Evangelion project was revealed, the September 1st release date was announced by Anno on February 14th.

∆ I like how NEON GENESIS and 3.0+1.0 are opposites in color.

EDIT:
The Evangelion x Godzilla concert is coming back:

I'm trying to recall how the marketing for 3.0 went 5 years ago, did they start releasing those obscure piano 30second previews in the summer of 2012? Was that our first 'promotional material' for the 3rd film? It's been a while and my memory is hazy lol.

I think it was pretty much this:

- After 2.0 released they said Q wasn't going to be immediately released
- A bunch of "we're working on it" interviews in 2010
- A very unpolished new preview of Q was shown in summer '11 after a TV airing
- Name, poster and release window on January 1st 2012
- Release date announced on July 2012

If I recall, our first official promo piece was this Newtype cover from 2011: http://gallery.minitokyo.net/view/535268
Someday I hope that we'll be reunited if that is what's destined to be. Perhaps we'll discover that elusive bible. And then we will finally be free!

Oh that's right, I should've remembered that (since I own that issue lol). Right, and then in 2012 we kept getting something every few months (small PV, posters, names, color, piano bits and so on). Okay, so a year prior to launch is reasonable to expect for the news to start rolling in. In which case if this film is a fall 2019 production (which I think it is), then around Autumn of this year is when we might see some poster or magazine cover. That's my bet :wink:

puts on tinfoil hat So, GGWaiT (lol that short version tho) is relevant enough for a panel with Anno himself, this might actually mean that Another Impact could also hold some significance. And thinking of it, we have yet to see Unit/Mark 07...

The movies function on their own terms. If people can't accept them on those terms, and keep expecting them to be NGE, then they probably should have realized a while ago that they weren't going to have a good time. ~ Words of wisdom courtesy of Reichu

April 1st in Japan, no Shin Eva news in sight.

Looking at the positives: they didn't announce Shin Ultraman directed by Anno.

:tongue:

Not saying anything will happen, but its also 1:15AM in Tokyo as of this post, so I doubt any announcement would happen by now anyways.
I mean, predictability is the central attraction and the narrative hook that we've all come to expect from the Evangelion franchise. How come Anno can't realize this? Twice? - FreakyFilmFan4ever

The Eva/Khara twitter accounts posted about a re-broadcast of the Evangelion x Shin Godzilla Symphony at 1 am on April 2nd. Wouldn't really expect anything to come out of this:

Hey, it's something at least.
I don't think Anno cares about what is in theory the start of the business year though.
That was probably Toho's decision with Shin.
Shinji: "Sooner or later I'll be betrayed... And they'll leave me. Still... I want to meet them again, because I believe my feelings at that time were real."
Ryuko: "I'm gonna knock ya on your asses!"

It also looks like AbemaTV has announced another run of NGE. At the rate they're going, they should just rename themselves EvaTV. :lol:
