I don't regret getting excited about it one bit. It was fun, and honestly, if you weren't aware of the possibility of something like this happening, you haven't been paying attention. After the Funimation delay, this is a pretty minor disappointment. If anything, I hope Anno keeps the ve...

I appreciate you replying instead of just deleting it... That would be nice to have in this section. I understand wanting to keep this one free for news, but a second thread for more goofy stuff could be fun. I don't even know if anyone's interested in using one for that, but apparently ther...

geek out here, I guess?

Split from news/updates thread. Y'know, it would be nice to have someplace just to geek out, heading into the preview. Having fun at moments like this is what it's all about, in my view, even if it offends those more tidy-minded. The teachers telling us to keep quiet during recess is defini...

Some people's near-certainty about Final is the most surprising thing to me, post-Q. After that I thought, "well, no one's going to make grand predictions about the plot anymore" . Heh. Whether it's the ending, or how certain characters will figure into the next film, I just do...

It's likely the final time with an Anno-involved Evangelion, anyway. So, the end of REAL Evangelion, even if there's more.

I was being a tad reductive, I didn't mean they were literally going to use the same footage, just in that 1.0 way where they might as well have. But there are of course plenty of "new" elements in most shots.

That's essentially describing another, abandoned project. The original plan was to do three "trace job" edits of the original series, a la You Are (Not) Alone , with only the fourth entry (half entry!) featuring radically new scenarios and animation. With those more mod...

Maybe they're waiting on the series' completion before continuing the CRC. That way, they won't have to second guess every comment being a potential spoiler, and can speak freely. I imagine quite a lot of Q's conception ties into Final.

I feel like EoE's millisecond flash of hate mail has given Eva fandom a big head. Since then, we assume EVERYTHING Anno does is with an eye towards needling the fans. It's solipsism, constantly thinking, "Oh God, oh God, is that about US? Is he saying fuck off to US?" The man certa...

Gendo. Gendo is carefree at the end of 2.0, that's true.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea that the "original" Q was scrapped is complete fan speculation, right? Until we hear something supporting that idea directly from those involved, I think it's better to take things at face value. It would be weird to not mention it at all in th...

Well in any event, a "proper" preview would spoil things for da noobz, so I'm glad there isn't one. Has Anno no shame? He shouldn't have any! Whether it's a red herring designed to make Q all the more shocking, a glimpse of events between films, or the groundwork for an &qu...

It's better to preserve the surprising elements of Q for viewers who aren't aware of it, IMO. The original preview may even be an intentional misdirect with that in mind.

If the whole "fan fiction" angle is to be seen as something beyond just sour grapes, referencing specific works of fan fiction that have specific parallels with Q is necessary. If it's just, "well, some people have written NGE fics with a post-apocalyptic flavor" or "fan...

You can't just generalize everyone who disliked the film like that. I'm sure there are plenty of people who bristled against the timeskip, the Wunder, and the tone as concepts more than how they were used. As with the original series, the list of reasons people like and dislike the story goe...
