Am I being stubborn or too picky? Eva is quite hyped up and discussed everywhere, so I feel as if watching the dub might cheapen the experience due to mistranslations and lack of nuance in voice acting, but then again quite a few people seem to have seen the dub only and love it regardless. I think...

Hey guys, do you remember the time Amanda Winn-Lee (who played Rei) came to EvaGeeks to chat with us, and then HAL 9000 ran her off because he was a total dick?

We could have gotten some fascinating insights into the creation of the EoE dub. Alas, it wasn't meant to be...

That's because only the final episode is soul crushing.

What really? I havent been keeping track of stuff so much so I didn't notice this. The only airing shows I'm watching right now are the lupin, bakemono and durarara sequals. Is there any good original anime shows airing right now? I don't know about right at this moment, but there have been several...

Watanabe never said the English dub was perfect or superior. I don't have access to his quote at the moment, but it was something akin to "quite good." For me, the English dub is the definitive version, but the Japanese cast are no slouches. You can't go wrong either way, because Bebop is ...

Lucasfilm has never (as far as I know) taken action against fans for fan-edits or film preservation projects. I doubt they are going to start now.

This post from Answerman is pretty timely on the subject of voice acting. It turns out English and Japanese VAs both suck! http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/answerman/2016-02-26/.99020

I never understood all the rave for "character development" which especially occurred in Anime fandom (nowadays less so, though). I'd rather have an interesting character that doesn't change at all, (but provides great insight in his interactions and inner live as well make him/her relata...

I think it shows that the current state of the anime industry is simply an example of a far larger problem with TV/movies in general. I just hope that there is a attempted recovery before a possible crash and burn since anime I feel is still small enough to go through changes without their being a ...

Came to EvaGeeks for the fanwank, stayed for the dragon dildos.

Fem-Kaworu is an ancient EGF joke. As the discussion thread theories grew more and more outlandish, eventually Fem-Kaworu would get thrown in as a solution/confounding factor for every theory. It was also meant to provide levity. Basically, the longer a thread on EGF got, the more likely it was that...

The first one came at a time when they were able to showcase mind-blowing CGI effects, and most blockbuster films had not yet jump aboard that train. It is remembered for the scene when the White House is blown up (also Goldblum hacking the alien computer with his mac). It isn't remembered for its p...

Awesome movie with so much great satire going on. They actually did a RiffTrax Live event of this film a few years back. I went with my friends, but I kept wondering how can they make it funny when it's already a satire film? Well, most of the jokes were pretty shallow. It was funny, but I think the...

Jackie Chan's Project A. I'm trying to dive deeper (earlier) into Chan's films, and haven't seen a lot of the earlier 80s ones. This wasn't as amazing as I had been led to believe by various online reviews. Sure, the choreography was good, but they didn't do anything particularly memorable in the fi...

They've been doing this kind of thing since the dawn of harem shows.

Shamsiel-kun is too new to the forum to understand Fem-Kaworu. At least the one we all know and love.

Thanks, everyone. This is all a bit disorienting.

Filthy noob.

People leave and return, such is the ebb and flow of life. As we get older and get jobs, spouses, kids, etc. things like EvaGeeks hold less appeal. It's only natural.

I leave for an unspecified amount of time, and when I return, the whole look of the forum has changed. WTF, you guys?

I finished BioShock: Infinite and the Burial at Sea expansions a couple of days ago. The games were pretty good, but a bit derivative of the original. The thing that kind of pissed me off was in the story how Elizabeth becomes a complete psychopath, and goes across infinite universes killing all the...
