Just my 2 cents but: I feel an ending where Shinji and the rest of the Wille crew endeavor to slowly heal the earth would have been interesting, but it also would have felt jarring. I've always felt Evangelion is above all a metaphor for depression and social atomization, with the SF elements basica...

It was announced today that Gundam: Hathaway will have a same day Blu-ray release next month. If only it could have been the same with Eva :/

I'd be really annoyed if NTE's universe straight up overwrote NGE/EOE's, personally (unless there were thousands of years in between or something, but I'm not sure I buy the idea that it's been that long for Kaworu). I think it'd devalue One More Final's resolution in every way. I'm not sure it has...

Shinji clearly caused the red earth. It doesn't exactly line up with what we saw in 2.0, but that's what happened, and the emotional arc of the last two films is built on Shinji's seemingly heroic actions turning the earth alien. But that's exactly the problem. WILLE not bothering to tell Shinji why...

If kaworu is looping that would suggest the whole setting is. We just don't know what the timeframe entails. Doesn't seem that limited.

They treated Shinji that way because he caused near third impact and they've been living in a post-apocalyptic landscape for more than a decade as a result. They see him as the trigger for a horrendous, global Holocaust. "But why didn't they explain the situation to him" Because structural...

Honestly I think it's hilarious that loop theory ended up being at least somewhat correct

Whoooooa, do people really think this??

Folks really don't know how film production works ^^;

I imagine that independents band together to be able to show things, though. I saw The Tale of Princess Kaguya at one indy venue in Oxford (they had alternating sub and dub days), and A Silent Voice , sub only, at another, also in Oxford. That wasn't so much a case of independents banding together:...

Though, I'd be interested to know how this works if anyone knows - like whether cinemas can request rights or if they have to wait for an announcement and where they'd find it. I'm curious because there's a small independent cinema near me and they're open to requests. I imagine any cinema screenin...

Anime screenings are actually very common in the UK, particularly in Scotland. One of 2.0's earliest English language screenings was in Glasgow. 3.0 was also screened several times. The LovesAnime film festival usually shows these movies.

A general, non-festival release tho? No.

The main "sequel looper dogma" fanboy belief is that Shinji created the movies by deciding to start over in EOE's instrumentality (like in several fanfics and Re-Take) to live a Peggy Sue second chance at wooing Asuka, becoming more like a stock shonen protagonist and pay meta-penance for...

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but how do I join this Eva discord? One jonesin' for more news on this

For myself, I'm really excited to see all this in context. End of Evangelion is one of my favourite films, but I'm not really in the Eva fandom. I've only seen the show a few times, and I love it, but I don't think I'm quite attached to the characters or the lore in the way others are. But I think A...

Fighting through the sets sounds like easily the most interesting part of this movie, to me. I've been really disappointed by how formally conservative Rebuild has been in comparison to the series. I'm mainly into Eva for the odd stylistic stuff. If they go for some intentional artificiality towards...

So I guess we're mostly likely to get a camrip when the film opens in Hong Kong or China. I wonder how long that'll be?

So wtf is up with the fight in Tokyo 3? Instrumentality? Time travel?

So essentially, Shinji constructs a world without Evangelions or Angels? Does he have memories of his previous life when he enters that world?

Do we have any idea what the final shot/line of the movie is?

Did a camrip happen for the Demon Slayer movie? I feel like that goes a long way for determining the likelihood of whether that'll happen for this.

Gudam has it too. See Turn A I'm aware, but that has never come up since, hardly matters to the show itself and was only done multiple timelines in, so the way it's done is not really relevant to the discussion at hand; you don't see people arguing that maybe the reason there is a hole in australia...
