Unfortunately I also feel that would be so. Subtlety is not a factor in today's film making. Also with the trend to take any Asian film and transfer the story setting to an American location, it would not be Tokyo 3
rather New York or Washington. Which I feel would detract from the premise of the story.

As far as I know, the live-action Eva movie is stuck in "Development Hell" for the time being. A few years back, WETA (the guys who did the special effects for the Lord of the Rings trilogy) released some concept artwork for the EVA units, though a lot of the feedback was a bit mixxed. After folks found out that they were planning on completely Americanizing the Evangelion cast (such as renaming the characters into more Anglo-sounding names), there was a near revolt by the fans. No more news has come up about it in a couple years...
On a side-note, I love that jlist site... their t-shirts are great

I enjoy the Kit-Kats which have flavors only available in Japan, such as Sakura, green tea and Azuki.  
Oh and the Hello Kitty vibrators  Not..Not..Not that I've bought one or anything. 
Though I did buy a oppai {breast} mouse mat! surprising comfortable!

There was a small article about negotiations with the series creators Gainax to produce the live action version in the anime magazine Newtype USA. But as with all these projects creative differences seems to have put the project on permanent hiatus.
There has been a further anime film released in Japan, called Evangelion 0.1: You are not alone . However the reveiw I read stated that it was only the first four episodes of the series pieced together with a few new CGI sequences put in. The fact that the DVD release has been withdrawn just shows that it was thought fans were not going to pay for the same film again. As this is the first of four 'new' evangelion anime films, I can only assume that the others will be the same. A great dissapointment.

I watched the show, but could never quite get into the show. It's great overall. The animation and voice acting is solid. And the story is well done, but I just could not get into it.
I would probably have to watch the show multiple times to fully understand everything. |

I've always said that Evangelion is one of those shows that either make or break an anime fan... it's so heavy with metaphor and drama and angst that, it's almost an ordeal to watch the entire show (plus one or both of the movies), and in my opinion it's almost a right-of-passage for die-hard otaku to sit through all of it...

That was my reaction to the ending as well...
Followed by "This is fucking bullshit!" There I was, ready to accept the end of the world and it ends up being just a bad dream? Yeah, never had such an ending upset me.

It was not a bad dream, rather that Shinji, the main character was given the opportunity to recreate the world as he wished. But this turn out to be a false start and the true 'Salvatation' of mankind was shown in the two Evangelion films; "Death and Rebirth" and "The end of evangelion". The latter having a great soundtrack as well.

Indeed I was listening to the audio commentary on the last film and apparently the fans of the series were so pissed at the ending in the TV series that actual death threats were sent to the writer. It would seen that the writer then deliberately made the next ending even more ambiguous just to piss them off even more.

I can refer you to my earlier posting on this thread, which contains the web site of the producers of the live action film and a "MOCK" trailer for the film. if you have any further questions please feel free to ask

[Spoilers ahoy!... maybe...]
Another story I heard about Evangelion's original ending is that they had used up just about all of their animation budget before they even started animating the last two episodes, and that the director had a nervous breakdown and the end result was the confusing, yet optimistic, ending from the TV show.
Personally, I think it sort of seemed like the bleakness and finality (or lethality, as it were) of the End of Evangelion movie was Hideaki Anno's way of giving the middle finger to all those fans who cried "foul" after the hyper-confusing TV ending. It seemed almost blatant, like he was saying "You wanted an ending? Fine! Here's your g*dd*mn ending!"

In fact some of the death threats were showing briefly in the film as was the graffiti on the Gainax building. |
