Michael Bay Rumor Confirmed False by Michael Bay

By The Eva Monkey on Wednesday, July 9th, 2014 in Live Action Evangelion, News, Rumors.

A rumor has been circulating for close to two months now, that Michael Bay wants to work on Live Action Evangelion, and insinuating that it would be his next project.  I never got around to posting about it because it was infuriatingly bogus, and I didn’t feel like I should have to write about what […]

By The Eva Monkey on Friday, August 12th, 2011 in Live Action Evangelion.

I’ll be damned. For the first time in about five years, we actually have news about Live Action Evangelion.  You know, that thing that everyone was buzzing about for a good two years?  That thing where ADV, Gainax, and WETA were going to make the next huge film trilogy?  Yeah, that.  Apparently, ADV still exists […]

I watched this video of a panel from Tekkoshocon, and I’m surprised to say that the word on the Live Action Evangelion Project seems pretty good. I’ve had severe hesitations, and have on more than one occasion acted as a sort of harbinger of doom in regards to the project, convinced that there is no […]

Not to be confused with an April Fools…

By The Eva Monkey on Sunday, April 4th, 2004 in AMVs, Live Action Evangelion, Video.

Now, before you get all excited, let me just tell you that this is a FAKE MOVIE POSTER. It is probably one of the more competent fakes I’ve seen, and the only reason I’m posting it is because I want to avoid any and all rumors from starting. Much like FofR over at TrivialBeing, I […]
