Given that the trailer is a form of advertising, it seems odd to (a) restrict access to it, and (b) get uptight about the matter. But that's modern copyright law in action for you I suppose...

It's certainly a strange one. I wonder if perhaps there were any special deals behind it or something which has caused them to be a bit more overzealous with thinks. Just another day in "Media companies do the strangest things" I guess.

Mirai no Mirai is distributed by Toei I think, and Toei will do distribution for Shin Eva. That's the deal I think. [EDIT: it's actyally TOHO]



I was also wondering if they didn't originally plan to upload the teaser on September 1st, the anniversary of 1.0. The theatrical run of the teaser will end on August 31st. It would have made sense.

I think this practice is outdated anyways. I'd really rather they charged a little for acces to these videos.
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!"

Teaser confirms 2.35:1 aspect ratio for Shin Eva. Nice. It'll be cool to see the first half given a tighter aspect ratio, better suited group framing and more intimate scenes, while the last half is given a Cinemascope aspect ratio better suited for sweeping vistas and highlighting distances between characters.

It fit 3.0 perfectly and looked beautiful, I'm happy it's back.

If you don't mind my asking, what is so important of that particular aspect ratio?

It’s less the aspect ratio itself and more about how it’s used. (For example, watch episode 1 of FLCL and try to imagine it being produced in widescreen. I personally can’t imagine that because you can’t shoot close-up shots the way they did in that episode and have it look good in widescreen.) Anno’s use of CinemaScope/“TohoScope” photography (2.35:1) is just another important visual piece of storytelling that highlights how distant Shinji was feeling from everyone else. Also, I was wondering if the framing in Shin Eva would be consistent with the framing of Eva Q.

Which is great of them.

They were also threatening with legal action over the cinema capture of this video on social media. Which they have the right to do, but IMO is overdoing it.


What's with Japan's harsh treatment of leaked digital media.
EvaGeeks is a nightmare to navigate, still good tho.

^ One of Shin Eva’s distributors is Toho. Toho’s ALWAYS had scary lawyers. They are the only thing from Toho more menacing than Godzilla. They will sue anything that looks at their property/licensing funny.

Random thought of the day:

Now that it's official Final won't come out for up-to or over 2 years from now in 2020, I fully expect things to go pretty silent on the film info-wise for the next twelve months. The teaser did it's job - the movie is being made, it will have Evas and it will be released at some point in the year 2020.
Sure, things are different from when 3.0 was being made in 2012 so the Khara Twitter accounts may drop a juicy bit of info here & there but for the most part I expect things Final to go media silent for the next year or so. Perhaps they'll do something for New Years - unlikely yet always possible - but I think July 2019 is when the next major bit of Final news gets released.

So let's analyze those 10 seconds of juicy animation, fellow EvaGeeks!

I also expect silence till next july, and a trailer possibly dropping in 2019 depending on when the film comes out in 2020.
We might get things like interviews or something though.

It's amazing.
Back in 2007 I asked myself, if FFVersusXIII, Kingdom Hearts 3 or the final film of NTE will be released first.
Back then, I never thought that it would take longer than 2011 (the year I graduated High School).
Now look where we are, a lifetime of a whole generation squandered by some Japanese nerds.

I hope Khara won't be completely silent though. I mean, after all those years, they certainly have some things to share ? We've gotta have something to theorize and fanwank about !

I expect things like that Eva-02 drawing that came out before 3.0, that showed the head was not regenerated abd replaced with prothesis (don't know if that was discussed at the time).

In fact we already got this with what the new 08 suggests.
