Re: Waiting for Evangelion:3.0+1.0

Yeah, it's definitely aimed for casual movigoers than superfans like us, but I like it nonetheless.

Re: Waiting for Evangelion:3.0+1.0

Oh, that reminds me. The 1.0-3.0 recap is actually a part of the 155 minutes runtime hence why it's always shown together whenever they stream a preview, plus the film's end credits is around 9 minutes long so the actual story content is 140-ish minutes. People who've watched the first 18 minutes st...

Re: Is the Artwork in the Promo Pamphlet The Epilogue and/or Canon?

Maybe there's additional context to Iwanaga's words? But yeah, it only says "Kaji Jr. and Kensuke may have a nice conversation in the future".

Re: Is the Artwork in the Promo Pamphlet The Epilogue and/or Canon?

He has a ponytail so I think the other guy is meant to be Kaji Sr., he does look shorter than Kaworu but maybe that's just the perspective at play here. Interestingly, the art with Kensuke giving Kaji Jr. a car battery is the one that I can easily see as a canon moment or can be slotted in to canon,...

Re: Is the Artwork in the Promo Pamphlet The Epilogue and/or Canon?

The woman in Asano's art is definitely Misato, aside from looking like her with a short hair, she also has the Wille captain hat. https://i.imgur.com/RRxEhW5.jpg There's also Kaji and Kaworu in the background so this is most likely Asano's interpretation of a world based on Kaworu's (and Kaji's?)

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

All I can say is That's Just How Business Works™ but if you're planning to discuss this further, we can do that in a more appropriate thread since it's better to keep this one consistently about 3.0+1.0's BO discussion.

(Edit: wrong linked thread lol, ironic I know)

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

Nope, we're getting 3.33 and that's also the version currently up on Prime Video Japan, maybe to keep things even for now.

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

Last Run campaign among other things is also an excuse to release the updated 3.0+1.01 version theatrically which is also the cut we're getting for Prime release, so even if the film could've came out earlier on streaming I'm glad we jumped to the superior version immediately (not that there are man...

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

It's currently at 9.77 billion yen and is expected to reach 9.8 by either Friday or Saturday with the current pace, they also confirmed the stage greeting on July 11th will be live-broadcast to other theaters so expect a considerable boost on Sunday, but after that will be the ultimate uphill battle...

Re: Waiting for Evangelion:3.0+1.0

Very well then, I also missed the earlier part a bit so not like it's a complete recording anyway. :tongue: I'm most impressed how Anno's very eccentric way of shooting live action - very wide shots cut next to extreme closeups and lots of interplay between out of focus foreground elements very clos...

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

The number of screens are significantly decreasing as of today since several new films are premiering (Tokyo Revengers, Godzilla vs Kong) but it still has a good hold, the current total is 9.661 billion yen . They're launching other programs like a "director's cut" of All Night Nippon radi...

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

They also said #ShinEvaLastRun ends on July 21 which I'd assume means the end of the film's theatrical run, that's the first day of summer vacation. Some theaters are probably gonna be packed with fans as the end date is closing in, but will they be able to reach 10 billion in just 19 days? :bigeyes:

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

^^^ Dammit, I read that in Kaji's dub voice lol Meet-and-greet doesn't seem to give an extended boost compared to benefits since it's a one-off event, so it's either moar freebies for ticket buyers or them releasing a mythical 3.03+1.01 version, even like 3-5 minutes of new scenes can bring dozens o...

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

9.6 billion yen as expected , the official Eva twitter account also revealed that the film will be leaving IMAX screens for the final time in a few days so it will be an uphill battle for 10 billion with how stacked the July list is. https://twitter.com/evangelion_co/status/1409805155441156104?s=20

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

When the film "left" IMAX screens back in April (with an announcement beforehand) to make room for Detective Conan before then being revived, there was quite a boost in audience number in the final day, I can see that happening again, I bet many people will consider to come and see the fil...

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

Capping off the weekend with 9.56 Billion, surpassing Jurassic World as the 42nd highest grossing film in Japan , Sunday numbers tend to be lower but it should also be noted it surpassed all newly-released film over the weekend so that's quite encouraging. I do think there would be a considerable s...

Re: Deleted Scenes and Unused Plans - 1.111/2.222 Wishes

Also, I am curious, is the 3.333+Shin double feature screening considered one film by Eirin just like how Death(true)^2 and EoE released as one film a few months back or are they considered two separate films? I believe they're considered as a double feature, literally just two separate films being...

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

People are definitely putting their return viewings on hold until Saturday, would be cool but also not surprising if Saturday-Sunday will see some massive jump. The stage greeting will have actors who didn't show up in the previous one like Maaya Sakamoto (Mari) and Miyuki Sawashiro (Sakura), both a...

Re: Shin Evangelion beats franchise record for the first day at the box office

Shin Eva surprisingly did better than yesterday and so far it's doing just fine, pocketing around 201 million with a total of 9.38 billion yen, most people are definitely holding until Saturday since that's when the new posters will start getting distributed. It is predicted to surpass 9.4 billion ...
