Re: Shin Ultraman
So I've had basically no experience with Ultraman but would love to check it out ahead of the new movie. Which works would anyone here recommend? I'm specifically interested in things that are known to be relevant to (or likely to be relevant to) Shin Ultraman . It seems like a movie you shouldn't w...

Re: 3.0 + 1.0 Reactions
somewhat perverted.) I'm kinda miffed by how Shinji supposedly just did what he wanted during the ending, because obviously everyone's alright with it? To me, the implication was that creating an Eva-free world was a necessity more than a desire. A world with them (and the possibility of instrument...

Re: NTE as a clear message plus embellishment
In the recent documentary, Anno credits his father for his own fascination with "incompletion." His dad lost his leg in a freak accident which greatly impacted his life. So Anno finds value in broken/mysterious/incomplete concepts. Shinji's lack of understanding drives all of his problems,...

That's not the interpretation I want when I say I love my mother. The word can describe all kinds of relationships and feelings.

Re: Sooo, the new Rebuild dubs....
I think the word "love" is ambiguous enough in this context. Is it romantic love, or something else? Changing it to "like" waters it down instead of making it more ambiguous. As for the defense that it's what Khara wanted, they're not always the best arbiters of translation. For ...

Re: Sooo, the new Rebuild dubs....
So, at about 01:04:35, they left in two line readings by Fuyutsuki's dub actor, yes? He says "The reactivation of the Unit 13 is only a matter of time"... and then says it again, a little differently. I thought someone would've pointed this out already, so am I missing something? Otherwise...

Re: 3.0 + 1.0 Reactions
I don't think Anno abandoned retelling NGE/EoE at all. He took a hell of a left turn, but by the end, the story is thematically, visually, and musically referencing EoE. That movie is basically running in the background while Shinji makes healthier choices. To me, that's the "point" of Reb...

Re: 3.0 + 1.0 Reactions
I think the idea was to address some of the loose ends in the original series, like Toji/Kensuke dropping out of the narrative and Gendo becoming almost irrelevant in EoE. These are very minor flaws (if they're flaws at all) but it's nice to reassess them. Gendo becoming more involved is, I think, o...

Re: The little things that made you laugh in 3.0+1.0
I also thought Shinji colliding into the "sky wall" was a great reference to all the walls Toho has turned into skies Oddly enough, the first thing I thought of was The Truman Show, where he tries to sail away from his fake constructed world and the boat suddenly hits the wall and he real...

Re: The little things that made you laugh in 3.0+1.0
I loved the "imaginary" fight between Shinji and Gendo taking place in different iconic locations. If anything, I wished they went farther with it. Shinji and Gendo fighting in the aquarium! Shinji and Gendo fighting on top of a full-sized Eva's helmet while that Eva fights an Angel! I als...

Re: Amazon Prime Video release
Come to think of it, does the UK ever get dubs in a “British accent”? Only dub I've ever seen from the UK was Arrietty, from Studiocanal. Literally no idea why it exists considering there is another English dub so what's the point in two, but I am glad it does exist. Olivia Colman and Saoirse Ronan...

Re: Amazon Prime Video release
I asked for "just one tweet" on the dub cast and boy did I get one, and then some! At the time I remember there being controversies about how Kanemitsu translated NGE for Netflix, like changing Kaworu's "I love you" to "I like you". I hope there are no such issues with ...

Re: Amazon Prime Video release
It keeps getting discussed because it's mystifying. But I take your point, it's not like an Evangelion discussion to keep retreading the same old ground, over and over again.

Re: Amazon Prime Video release
The secrecy around this stuff is so weird. I don't see how it adds one dollar of profits to keep the dub cast and the versions of the films under wraps til release day. As far as the dub cast is concerned, I just don't think Khara is interested in advertising any of the dubs and probably has it sti...

Only if one prefers technicality to clarity. "Maya would never act like she does in the new theatrical version." "Oh, which of the four does she seem out of character?" "Four? There are more than that. I'm talking about the new one!" "Oh, so Evangelion: 3.0+1.0 Thr...

Re: Waiting for Evangelion:3.0+1.0
Plus, "New Theatrical Edition" becomes awkward if a subsequent Evangelion series hits theaters after 2021. When "Guitar Ace Aoba" comes out in 2025, better for Rebuild to be called "Rebuild".
