The main staff of TTGL only did key animation/story-boarding (Nishigori) or were not involved in 2.0's development at all. :P

Oh and for what it's worth TTGL has better writing than Eva, Rebuild or otherwise.

But those are interesting details!

and talked to dolls.

I also think the idea that 3.0 is going to show or allude to the "mind rape" that may or may not have happened in 2.0 as a flashback to an event that happened in real time in 2.0 and may (like in episode 22) be a flashback itself to her past, is just goddamn retarded. Of course thi...

http://boonce.org/up/Original.jpg It's clearly a trace of the original scene from episode 19, and as for the production of that scene itself it's not any more likely that it was always planned that way considering what the time-frame for these movies was originally. But we'll never know...

you're not answering my question. Why do you think that the creators just changed their minds suddenly? are you talking about toji or Asuka. Not the one who said that but there is reason to believe that things weren't meant to happen as they did in 2.0 originally. Now the original preview &...

I wanted Rebuild to fix Evangelion, what I recognized as problems to be changed.

Well I didn't get that. Too bad I guess.

Source please? Besides, the bare bones of the plot (Eva-02 and Eva-05 appearing, Eva-03 and Bardiel, Eva-06 arriving from the Moon) is in BOTH 1.0's and 1.0 TV's Next Time Preview, it's just the first preview has mock-up footage (eg: implications of Leliel.) and the TV-v...

Yeah, it's absolutely the right move for Rebuild. There are those who think Asuka is shortchanged now , what would it look like if Toji was front and center? Toji would be gone and forgotten about and Asuka would still be in the last half hour of 2.0. This isn't better at all mind you. Obvi...

I'd say the only reason it's comparable to the original is that it IS eva after all, but in what way does it improve the series counterpart it emulates? The original series and pretty decent character animation, Rebuild has pretty decent character animation (it's not movie quality th...

Well I'd be glad in that case as I'd have no reason to ever re-watch 1.0 and 2.0.

I wonder how much things have changed since the original statement regarding Rebuild. Many different desires are motivating us to create the new "Evangelion" film. The desire to portray my sincere feelings on film. The desire to share, with an audience, the embodiment of image, the diversi...

Everyone agrees silently as they are making massive amounts of money.

Sadamoto has a thing for thin characters.

Oh boy.

And I find it interesting how there are complaints about dialogue when some of the lines in question were actually from NGE and not new lines to 2.0. ("I can't just kill somebody!" and "Fine! Dying is better than killing ____!" come to mind.) Are you suggesting that ...

I have been see the new films have been refered to as NME. What does that stand for?

New Movie Edition

Replace "Bardiel" with "Arael" and remember that NGE would like a word with you on how powerful flashbacks/mindrapes can be when done right. :asuka_thumbsup: I mean, there's no denying what we saw of Asuka's past in DC22 and 25 was powerful stuff, there's no reason t...

And yet, there's not much reasoning besides getting JUST the bare-bones of Shikinami. I'm assuming that Q will treat us with either a flashback to the Bardiel mind-rape(?) or a general flashback to Asuka's past in order to flesh her out more. Flashbacks are retarded in general b...

I think that where they go with her character in 3.0 will say a lot more than what we got in 2.0 but as it stands now... I feel slighted. They very clearly and deliberately play on fan expectations and flip them on you. The idea of surprising the old audience had them thinking what they presented in...
