Re: Last Movie You Watched

Eternals (2021) Seems like a mix between Terence Mallick and Puella Magi Madoka Magica. The plot is different from the original Jack Kirby version as well as the Neil Gaiman adaptation, and it has its own unique style, which makes it interesting to watch. What is confusing is that it tries to add i...

Re: What anime are you watching right now? Summer 2016 to now

I caught "The Boy and the Heron" in IMAX and quite liked it. Felt very immersive and honestly as more people watch this I'll be curious to see what people make of this thematically. To me is seemed like this movie had a lot of weird sexual subtext. Like I had been jokingly calling this mo...

Re: Gendo and Shinji Being Alike

Yeah I agree there are big differences. Also want to add the fact that in thrice upon a time, Gendo has completely lost his eyes - therefore completely dissociated with reality. There's also a reddit post about him having sanpaku eyes in the series (probably not relevant): https://www.reddit.com/r/e...

Re: Shinji creates a new world in the ending of Evangelion 3.0+1.0?

In other words, I've seen some take issue with the fact that a narrative pre-occupied with the conflict of not running away then concludes that way ... but I find it hard to believe such a pointed decision was made in error. Or at least, I don't believe it's a contradiction. Yeah I think it could b...

Re: Gendo and Shinji Being Alike

Please elaborate~ I'm being a bit pedantic, but, it's a sort of fallacy of perspective. Music is part of the outside world and is made by others. Engaging with it as self-isolation alone requires actively ignoring what part of listening to music is an engagement with those outside yourself and what...

Re: Last Movie You Watched

Maestro (2023) I really think this movie should be acknowledged as just focusing on Leonard Bernstein and his wife Felicia Montealegre as I think many people go into it with the expectation that it would be about his musical career. It evocatively depicts how their relationship develops, as it flic...

Re: Last Movie You Watched

The Holdovers (2023) Perhaps one of the few feel-good Christmas movies that deserves some actual praise for delivering sentimental impact without being corny. The story revolves around an irascible teacher at a boarding school who has to look after students who have to live at school during the Chr...

Re: The Script for Rei and Kaworu at the Train Scene

Nuke definitely translated to the most accurate translation, but I mean we shouldn't ignore the confusing fact that the final product clearly derails from the contents of the script. The script mentions "multiple couples of men and women" but in the final scene, Rei and Kaworu are the only...

haha true. The Killer is more in the spirit of what he does best. Mank was a passion project but not entirely interesting. Looking forward to his future Netflix projects.

Re: Use of Religious Imagery in Rebuilds

Correct me if I am wrong (my memory isnt the best), but I remember reading an interview about the use of christian symbolism in NGE and the reply by Anno being that it was just for the cool factor and that if they knew it was going to be popular in the west they wouldnt use it as much.

Re: Last Movie You Watched

The Killer (2023) This movie by David Fincher with a script penned by the writer of Se7en, Andrew Kevin Walker, is an adaption of a French graphic novel and recently released on Netflix. I definitely think the character could have been a bit more developed and nuanced rather than a boring stone-col...

Re: NTE's interpretation of the characters

I do believe that at the centre of forum discussions on NTE, the divisions mostly relate to the characters of Asuka and Mari. The majority of NTE 1 and 2 remained somewhat faithful to NGE, but I think the character story arcs for Asuka and Mari are the most unique in the NTE rebuild series, in that ...
