I wouldn't say I hate it. I've seen it, read 1-11 of the manga and find it to be a well thought out piece of literature. However, I am not a big fan of it. It isn't my particular taste, and I think the anime was done very poorly comparitive to the manga. I understand the money problems they were having, but that excuse is wearing thin. I'm not very enthusiastic about an LAM in the first place, however, as said, I will see it just because I have respect for the art of the series, if nothing else. |

No, it's Evangelion. You keep spelling it without the E between the G and L. |

Omnia enim stolidi magis admirantur amantque, inversis quae sub verbis latitantia cernunt, veraque constituunt quae belle tangere possunt auris et lepido quae sunt fucata sonore. Indeed, the stupid most admire and love all that is scarcely discernible, hidden by abstruse words, and accept as true all things that sweetly caress the ear, and that are masked by a pleasant sound. --Titus Lucretius, De Rerum Natura, circa 80 B.C.--

Um...evanglion91, they already have a script. At least a rough draft. From: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Neon_Genesis_Evangelion_media#Live_action Development of a live-action film version of Neon Genesis Evangelion was announced in May 2003 by the Houston-based anime distributor ADV Films, who holds worldwide rights to the series outside of Asia and Australia. The film will be made by ADV, Gainax, and Weta Workshop Ltd.. Its release is currently projected to occur at any time ranging from as early as 2009 to as late as 2015. In December 2005, Fortune Magazine reported in an article about ADV Films that it had raised "about half of the $100 million to $120 million" needed to produce the film.[4] It's not completely clear if this money was raised by ADV alone or if part of that amount was contributed by Gainax. As of November 2008, the project is considered to be in "development hell", as a director has yet to become available or announced officially. In a panel discussion at Tekkoshocon on April 2, 2006 featuring Matt Greenfield and wife Tiffany Grant, many aspects of the project were revealed.[5] Greenfield recalled that Weta approached ADV about a live-action Evangelion film after completing work on The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, but the work was delayed by King Kong and The Chronicles of Narnia. It was revealed that three described "A-list" directors and several celebrities had approached the project, rather than the other way around, and the slug script was written by a writer of several other well-known science fiction films (though this is subject to be rewritten and tailored to the director's vision). Greenfield also reiterated his belief that they did not want to make the film for profit, because they wanted to do it and have it done right (as with Lord of the Rings), and promised effort toward a trilogy of Evangelion films (as opposed to trying to condense the story into one film and lose vast amounts of material), similar again to the Lord of the Rings trilogy. At Anime Expo 2008, ADV founders Matt Greenfield and John Ledford, in response to a question over the progress of the live-action film, revealed they had hired the producer for Appleseed Ex Machina, Joseph Chu, and pitched the idea to other producers such as Jerry Bruckheimer and Steven Spielberg.[6] They went on to say that interest in the project had been boosted by the success of the 2007 film Transformers.[7] Edited by mangachewie, Jan 1 2009, 05:43 PM.

You are not alone. I love Evangelion. I realize that the show has many flaws, both in storytelling and in its technical aspects, but I still love it anyway. I even like the religious iconography, even if it's just surface fluff added to make the show different from other robot shows. |

THE MANGA and the anime were made at different time and the manga was made to get people interested in the anime! Edited by Stryyder, Jan 2 2009, 12:00 PM.

I fixed this post to use quotes, so everyone knows where my statements end and yours begin. And actually, you are half right. The manga was indeed made to get people interrested in the anime, but they were both run at the same time, though the manga is still ongoing, due mostly to the Mangaka's delays. I actually prefer the manga over the anime, anyway. |

Some of the conversations might seem a bit jumbled up in this thread now because I merged it with the other thread that evanglion91 made. |

Even if it was planned from the begining, it's still mostly meaningless window dressing. Hideaki Anno stated that the religious symbolism was mostly meaningless and was used as a device to make the show unique. Remember that only like 2% of the Japanese population is christian so most of this stuff is meaningless to them anyway. It's just something extra to make the show cool. It was western audiences who assigned more depth to the show than was actually there. The statistic I stated above about 2% of the Japanese being christian may be different now. I got that info a few years ago. However, I'd bet that the number is still small. |
