I think Hamlet would make a good anime. Death, family angst, revenge, more angst, death, yet more angst and a lot of death at the end.

The one with Gaghiel. And I watched it in German. I know a little, but not enough to understand an episode... but I could tell that Asuka was a bitch, and that they were going fishing for an Angel. I did make out "DAS ENGEL! DAS ENGEL!" a lot, and that Kaji (in his infamous "is Mi...

@Oedipusfoot - :nyao: (I need to stop using that smiley) It's okay, PuppetChaos. You can be a fan of inferior hunks of metal and circuitry. Search your feelings -- you know it to be true! The Evas aren't just more powerful (well, except for the really ridiculous things, like TTGL...

You stole my idea! Which I only told a few people who don't go to this forum! ..and in a friends locked LJ entry.

Or else it's GMTA syndrome.

Wasn't there a scene before the Ramiel battle in the original series, where Kensuke and a couple of kids sneak out to see the Evas deploy, and they're all cheering them on and telling them to beat the Angel? That and Kensuke and Touji sort of, you know, saw Shamshel? I dunno about you, but i...

Haha, so true.

Man, in those above posts, I seem rather frumpy. I think I need to get off the internets for tonight.

Oh my God, I've managed to get others to say "Haxmagic"

I drew it for the lulz, and that I sometimes get a little "nngh" when people think Evas can beat anything and everything (LOL AT FIELD LOL LOL SEED OF LIFE LOLOL YUI LOLOLOL S2 ENGINE). It just comes off as really fan-wanky whenever anyone goes into the whole "my imaginary gia...

I haven't even the damnedest idea what a 'Tele' is. @Oedipusfoot - Have you ever tried taping your picture to a wall, then setting the camera on a flat surface and then taking the picture, as opposed to just holding it? I think that might work in lieu of a scanner. - This is literal 15-m...

see thats why they should put a bomb in each eva in case they go nuts. Hell, they should have a separate system that is in no away connected to the evas nervous system that can blow up its spine or something. The plug's not responding my ass. I had this thought as well. Of course fans would jus...

I got the PM, but being slow sometimes, I didn't realize I wasn't supposed to reply to the PM, but post in here! Durrrrr.... I've got the rough design and abilities mapped out. I know what direction I'm going in, and I've got a good idea of the background/story. I call that troph...

Can't resist... Pretentious Communication Student who wrote an entire 12 page paper on mecha anime and got a good grade for it... Taking Over... If we take 'symbol' as a broader thing as opposed to just visual motifs (as per semiotic theory).... then, yes, Gurren Lagann has symbo...

* Powerfist type thing, you know, like the things in Fallout, Starcraft, WH40k, etc. Basically a big giant mechanical hand that goes over the Eva's. You could give it Progressive Claws, too. Put jets on it, and the Eva could theoretically have a Rocket Punch, too. :nyao: * Progressive Bayonets i...

Mr. Tines wrote:"might"? Which bits of episode 23 and EoE did you miss?

All the better, then.

It was unique when it first came out, mecha anime was being dominated by Gundam, Gundam and more Gundam; and therefore a lot of mecha series looked and felt like Gundam... but that was starting to get boring, and then out of nowhere comes this crazy new Gainax anime with these creepy-awesome mecha a...

@SSD - Oh, I agree, Eva having cheesy super robot-esque lines would be really... un-Eva. As for Eva's Super/Real Robot status (I could put a long thing here about how there's no 'true' super or real robot anime, but yeah), the jury's still out, but general consensus among...

I thought it was obvious in the original series that the public knew about the Angel attacks, they just didn't know much about anything else.

Spider-Elephant? I prefer Spider-Pig. Spider- Ham . Time for me to once again dip into my cauldron of MADNESS and see what I can find, kekekeke. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/puppet_chaos/1238202009549.jpg http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v322/puppet_chaos/1240192712205.jpg http://img.pho...

When people ask me: "Okay Joe, who do you like better, Asuka or Rei?" My response is: "Misato" To which they say: "No, really, answer the question, Joe." Me: "I DID answer the question." But they have to be wieners about it: "Misato's old. Wouldn'...

Evyao's right, Cars did use "Hell" at least once, and not really in a "We're talking about the burny place" sense. I don't remember this line exactly , but it definitively used "Hell", at some point Lightning McQueen says something like: "Help me! Help!...
