Reasonably priced, good-looking Eva shirts?!

Uniqlo, a Japanese retailer with branches throughout the world, has begun selling t-shirts to celebrate Evangelion 2.0. They look pretty cool too. No more crappy Evangelion T-shirts from Ebay and overpriced Japanese imports from the official Eva store! Want one? Head over to Uniqlo UK's website ...

Not saying that it's a bad idea, but face it: you can't compare a coward to a hero. Ash is a happy-go-lucky loser who throws balls at generally unintimidating animal-like creatures for jollies. Shinji rides a giant human-like creature to save all mankind because the world can't do it wi...

Anyone familiar with TOR (The Onion Router)?

I'm working behind the Great Firewall of China at the moment, and I wanted to know if someone could submit a big long list of bridges to me via PM so I can get TOR running. The ones I'm getting via email from torproject.org aren't working anymore. Please and much thanks. Even if you don&...

Shinji actually cared a lot about Asuka. "Father, you need to lose someone important too! Then you'll understand what I'm feeling!" He says this to the guy with a dead wife. You don't see a self-centered jackass element to this? No, not really. In the heat of the moment, peopl...

I find it pretty impossible to sympathize with Shinji if I'm supposed to believe his thought process is "Boy, I sure am upset my dinner-date with father and Ayanami had to be called off because that foreign girl who obviously has no friends and repeatedly tried to get closer to me picked s...

About himself, maybe. Shinji whines that Gendou tried to kill Asuka with his hands, and then later he whines about Gendou trying to replace him with the dummy plug. When I see the temper tantrum scene, I don't get the feeling that Shinji is being a drama queen out of pure selfishness. He's ...

Okay, my same point still applies. Actually, I think that makes things even worse. Also, thanks Shinji for being totally disinterested in her condition or the prospect of seeing her when Misato asks him. I agree. I don't think Shinji knows of Asuka's condition. Do I think Shinji is a douche...

Part of me wishes you hadn't solved this mystery, but I'm grateful that you did. How did you even know to look on that CD, or was this some kind of general web browsing coincidence?

Coming to the series in my mid-40s, I found it could evoke issues that I'd thought were resolved a couple of decades before -- the real difference is whether familiarity would dull your responses, compared with the sudden surprise that is the first watch through. The replay value in Evangelion ...

Evangelion means different things to me each time I experience it, but the one thing that never changes is that I'm able to find comfort in the story and the characters. No matter how messed up I am on the inside, someone in the world knows just how I feel, and even more people have survived the...

When he did killed his friend to save the world. And yet that verison of Shinji is the one that was called a "bitch" and seen as a nasty character. Despite the fact that he did what is considered now the right choice, he barely got any consideration for it at all. Shinji didn't kill T...

Anyone else disappointed there there are only supposed to be around 30 playable characters in this one? One of the best things about MVC2 was the amount of characters you could match up.

My Dad had me watch the Shining when I was a little kid. It was the scariest thing I'd ever seen, and it remains the scariest. A love for Kubrick was born within me at a young age, before I even knew the name "Kubrick." When I saw 2001 many years later, I got the same eerie feeling tha...

I did like the film (gave it an 8), but it's too over the top in its approach. Symbolical or not, von Trier's overt use of shock has been distracting for some viewers and the form is borderline hilarious at times because it is often so pompous. Alienation might be a good approach fo...

Not great, or not good? And why, please?
