16's poster

Oh man, I watched it when it was released on VHS by ADV--not quite as up to date as you were, but still quite there?

The movies are such enormous love--watch them when you get the chance to.

I keep thinking that I'm the only one who loves Shinji the way I do.^_^; There are people who say that they "don't dislike him" or "empathize with him," but I have yet to hear a: "SHINJI IS CUTE/HOT" without the words "WITH KAWORU" tagging along (nothing against Kaworu/Shinji, but can we have Shinji without sides sometimes?)

You're not the only person who liked both endings. I liked them, too--one seemed like the "happy" end for me, and the other the "sad but happy" end. In fact, the art books do have an "after the movie ended" picture in there, and I love the ending more because of that. The TV series' ending made me think (the second time around): "Oh, he's happy...it's just so sad that it came that late...but he's happy."

Yes, the new movies will have a new ending that supposedly Gainax/Color says: "Will not piss people off." There are going to be more kids and EVAs showing up, too.

Without spoilers, I'll just say this--the movie is awesome, and as an EVA fan for the past 12 years, I loved it.

Sorry about the tl;dr. Passionate about EVA--I ran out and bought all the manga today, including "Shinji Instrumentality Project."

Haha, it's no problem. XD I never get to talk to anyone about EVA since none of my friends seem to like it or even want to give it a chance.

I do love Shinji... But I don't have the hots for him. If there is anyone I have the hots for in Evangelion it's... Rei. >3

It's nice to hear someone liked the endings. What made them even better was the fact they pissed people off... But I think that's just because I'm a little sadistic.

I actually worry that they say, "The new ending will not piss people off!" because sometimes that translate to, "We're going to cater to the fanbase, even if we have to sacrifice having a meaningful ending." :(

By the way, did you actually get to see the movie in the cinemas? I'd love to be able to do that but I'd definitely just settle for fansubs. XD

I hardly get to talk about EVA to people cuz I tend to look too deeply into it and go on tangents. It tires them out.^^;; I'm a bit of a Miss Know-It-All when it comes to EVA.

I don't think I have the hots for Shinji, persay. It's more like "oh, he's very hot now," but not in a "oh god hump" way.

Why in the world should the movie piss people off anyway. They wanted explosions, they wanted explanations of how in the world everyone died--they got their answer! And everyone is still dead! (Which makes me have mixed feelings about the new movie endings. Cuz will that mean people will survive and it turns into a romantic junior high school hijinks love comedy?! O_O ...probably not. But fans will be pissed off either way, I think)

Yes! I live in lovely Japan and managed to see the movie twice now!^_^
