Re: Godzilla & Kaiju General!
What I want to know is why no one can make a Godzilla movie with more than ten minutes of Godzilla. Doesn’t matter if it’s $100m worth of CGI, a rubber suit and puppeteers, or animation. A Godzilla movie is not a Godzilla movie unless the meetings about Godzilla run longer than the Godzilla scenes....

Re: Godzilla & Kaiju General!
Major spoilers Actually, I thought that Godzilla Prime and Godzilla Filius looked really good. The bark-like skin, the leaf-like spines, and the thorn-like tail tip... I was skeptical when I heard that these Godzillas had evolved from plant-based life, but they made them look awesome enough for me t...

Re: [Theory] Why did Anno and NGE's other creators choose to define Angels as Human?
They certainly act like non-sentient machines driven only by pure programming lacking the capacity for morality. Not really. Sachiel falls back in surprise when he’s first shot, and later cocks his head out of curiosity at a rocket barrage. When Sandalphon “attacks” Asuka, he may just be sucking on...

Nah, it begins as soon as the opening credits of episode 1 start.

Re: [Theory] Why did Anno and NGE's other creators choose to define Angels as Human?
This post made me realise something pretty important. A major theme of Evangelion is the difficulty we have in understanding others. And the Angels are the ultimate manifestation of that. We don’t understand them at all, not even their biology. We don’t even know that they’re Human until EoE. The An...

Re: Does Shinji deserve all the hate?
There’s a lot wrong with Shinji. Like his Father, he’s very selfish, only ever concerned with his own issues. When Asuka is lying comatose/sedated in hospital, he doesn’t visit her out of concern for her wellbeing, but instead to ask her for help. Later on, when he strangles her, the trigger isn’t h...

Re: Star Wars Episode II - A New Thread
I thought that was some kind of clamp or docking device. Maybe in the new canon something in there has been stripped out to make it faster? I reckon it’s a clamp for shipping containers. After all, the Falcon is a modified YT-1300 light freighter. It would make sense for the shipping container clam...

Re: a possible inspiration for the design of Leliel
I’ve known about dazzle camo for a while, but I never made the connection with Leliel. Good catch. I wonder why dazzle cam wasn’t more common? It seems pretty effective to me. Determining distance and angle on bow was essential to aiming with torpedoes, and dazzle cam definitely makes that harder, j...

Re: Shikinami or Soryu relationship with Shinji ?
The relationship between Shikinami and Shinji is better from their point of view, but Soryu and Shinji is better for us, the audience.

Re: About ' EOE : I Need You '
If that is Asuka's way of showing affection towards someone( caress his face first, then call him disgusting), then she has a bit of a twisted way of showing it. But I guess that is her definition for care. The “how disgusting” line was made up by Yūko Miyamura, Asuka’s voice actress, after Hideaki...

Rei and Mari could be quite interesting, given that Rei is something of an introvert, while Mari is an extrovert.
