The re-edited 3.333 and Shin Eva will screen back to back January 22nd going into the 23rd for a midnight release of Shin Eva.

Ticket sales for the midnight screening begin January 13, but we could get ticket sales potentially earlier for single screenings. This is important because it gives us a good chance of figuring out the total runtime of the movie.

The eight year gap is actually because right after 3.0 released in theaters in 2012, Anno went into another depression and didn't even visit his studio for the entire calendar year of 2013. Right when he came back, he was exhausted from working on Eva for so long that put it on hold and decided to work on other projects. He was a VA for Miyazaki's The Wind Rises and directed Shin Godzilla in 2016. He didn't get fully back to work on Eva until the beginning of 2017. This gap was by no means planned; the very first original plan for New Theatrical Edition had 3.0 and Shin Eva supposed to release together as a double feature; and when that fell through they were supposed to release extremely close to one another. When 3.0's release date was announced, Shin was announced to release in 2013, but that obviously didn't happen and we were stuck in Limbo until we got more information in 2017/2018.

To further drive home how important 3.0 and Shin are too each other. The first two movies got a resource book (Complete Records Collection) released right after their DVD/Blu-ray release that details the entire behind-the-scenes process of the movie. 3.0 never got one because Anno has stated he'll release it together with Shin since shedding any light on 3.0 would massively spoil Shin Eva.

Eva is important to the industry because of just how many different works were inspired by it. There a re numerous rip-offs, spiritual successors, and love letters to Eva in Anime; and a lot of the tropes, clichés, and ideas/themes can be found in so many different titles that aren't even mecha related. The only problem is that the industry didn't really "learn" anything from what Eva/Anno was trying to teach them despite Anno being memed massively for fucking around with his audience. Thus, when 3.0 released in 2012 and Anno did what he does best with Eva, everyone freaked out and 3.0 sits at a solid 3/5 or 5/10 in most review circles. Not because it's just a "meh" movie, but because people either praise it to high heaven as another masterpiece by the God Director, or it's 0/10 garbage dumpster fire and Anno has become a massive hack.

You'll have to explain that one to me. Why's it so important to the industry? I'm guessing if the movie took eight years to animate then it may have something to do with production quality standards in part?

I haven't watched Season 2 yet, I'm going to binge it with family on Wednesday.

With that being said.......FUCK THE SEQUEL TRILOGY.

That video terrified the Hell out of me.

Anything for clout.

Music of Shin Evangelion to release February 10, 2021. Sagisu's score comes on three discs this time!

Preorders already sold out on CDJapan.....

That would explain all the Spanish memes on Google.

Anno has stated that Q and Shin were meant to be viewed together, so part of the confusion from Q is we're missing an entire half of one whole part. The original plans for NTE were to have Q and Final be two halves of one whole movie (like how EoE is two episodes making up one movie). Also keep in mind we'll finally get a CRC for both Q and Shin after it relases. The whole reason we never got a Q CRC is because it would spoil a lot in Shin. I'm honestly surprised they came out with the storyboard books considering a couple of the scenes that we were shown in that.

"One Last Kiss" wont release until the day after Shin premieres in theaters so it's getting the Sakura Nagashi treatment that Q had. We can expect a release trailer when the movie premieres in Japan but we should probably get one more big announcement/trailer probably around a month to two weeks before release.

Lmao Old Hickory isn't going anywhere. Butthurt aristocrats from Virginia & Massachusetts can stay seething.

He literally made a comment about how he was going to murder a child or some stupid shit like that; didn't even bother to type "In Minecraft" or anything.

Oh yeah, Ian reported a post of mine to the fucking FBI and I got a nice visit from a plainclothes agent. Could've ended up in jail for years if I wasn't a pleasant, polite person. So that was pretty messed up.

...what?

Spike acted like a selfish child. He wasn’t being “badass” or “cool” he was being a hopeless romantic that wasn’t living in the sane world anymore. Chasing after his suicidal ex who gets herself killed only to end up biting collateral is ridiculous and makes him come off as the anime version of Forest Gump. All of this is further insulting when he tells Faye to move on and not chase the past, it’s so fucking hypocritical. “Do as I say, not as I do” appears to be his motto here.

That’s a loser worse than Forest Gump because at least Forest was retarded and didn’t contradict himself.

Essentially yeah, it’s just glorified retail. One guy knew someone who got Covid so he has to quarantine for two weeks despite feeling perfectly fine so I have to cover his shifts. I’m not complaining at all though cause they’re all closing shifts so I can sleep in and it’s an extra $1.50 per hour too.

Do you work in retail? Because thats what it sounds like.

How much is it? I still haven’t figured out what to get my brother for Christmas and this looks like a good idea.

Looks better, consider side-decking TTT. If you're still having trouble with the deck I'd consult with the subreddit; they're much better at deck building than I am but they'll still give you the same spiel on hand-traps.

I mean you could take him to civil court, but in that scenario you'd have to compile evidence on your own and hire your own lawyer and then argue against whatever a billionaire with a millionaire lawyer has to defend themselves with. I sincerely doubt any government officials will a bring a case against him, at the end of the day he's still an Elite with many connections.

Plus correct me if I'm wrong but I heard somewhere that once he becomes a private citizen again he's eligible to be taken to court? Given his tax returns and mounting debt it would make sense he would want to avoid those crosshairs as long as possible. Could be talking out my ass on that one though. Happy to be corrected on it.
