This is awesome..
She was @ AX a few years back for the 20th anniversary of Evangelion and did a great job on stage.. Own several versions of this series from the days of ADV.. platinum collection was the best version.. and no it's not cheap on the used market. I will be on the blue ray series pickup if it ever comes out in the US. |

In the US ADV Films had the license for Evangelion..
It's no secret that Gainax and ADV had a falling out, rumored to be because of the live action Movie fiasco. I'm willing to bet for the US at least that this has something to do with why we are not getting the Blu-Rays overseas. Whichever company acquired the rights from ADV when it dissolved is probably sitting on them, and probably due to the sour relationship between Gainax and ADV, the license will stagnate until is reverts.. and Gainax will sit on it until it decides its ready to play ball again. As for Madman... who knows.. only Anno knows when the final Renewal movie will ever get released.. if ever. |

It's still cool, though. It's the reason why I decided to continue watching NGE after episode 1. |

Well... if that doesn't peak your interest, you have to be dead inside. The imagery and art direction in eva still has no equal.

Anno has no drive or sense of urgency. I cannot blame him, though. He earns more revenue from merchandise alone than any other creator in anime (other than Miyazaki and possibly Kishimoto and a few others) and is likely wealthier than most A-tier Hollywood film directors as well. He can take all the time he wants or needs. When one is scraping by to survive, that is when artists produces their best work out of necessity. Younger artists also have more passion and something to prove. Modern day Anno is a shadow of his former self from the 90s in this regard, but that goes for everyone as they age. I expect we will see film 4 of the reboot one day... but it is best not to think about it too much because it is likely a couple years away from release.

Film 1 and 2 were in 2007 and 2009, then film 3 was in 2012, but Anno made a Godzilla movie in 2016 and so his fourth movie began production after that, so I expect movie 4 around 2020-2021. I wonder if it is going to be very good although the movies are very good the original TV show is still the masterpiece of the franchise.

If past experience is anything to go by, nothing makes Anno happier than hosing on fans of EVA, and that includes taking his sweet arse time making the so-called fourth and final movie which I expect will be yet another opportunity to sprinkle his golden revenge for past fan slagging's of his creation. If you're not a long time follower of this series and don't know what I'm on about just watch the older supposed "last movie" End Of Evangelion to see what.

Even if Anno was partly giving the middle finger to the overly passionate fanbase that gave him a hard time for those last 2 episodes, I still see The End of Evangelion as a masterpiece film. It may have been sad, but it did not at all betray the direction the story was going, and in a strange way was so beautifully executed that I'm able to watch it on repeat viewings. Not only did it help me appreciate the series more (those last 2 episodes included), it's what made me a fan of Eva in general. I'll wait as long as it takes for Anno to finish up the 4th Rebuild movie, as well as whenever someone licenses the original series (with End of Eva, of course!) for an American blu-ray release. |
