By The Eva Monkey on Tuesday, March 29th, 2011 in Evangelion 2.0, Rebuild of Evangelion.

So, yeah.  Evangelion 2.22.  On DVD and Blu-ray.  Pick your poison… which in my case would be both.  Now available at fine retailers everywhere.  You now have no excuse to not have seen this film.  It’s been in theaters.  It’s been camripped.  It’s been fansubbed.  It’s been re-released to theaters.  It’s been dubbed and released […]

New York Times Reviews Evangelion 2.0

By The Eva Monkey on Wednesday, January 26th, 2011 in Evangelion 2.0, Rebuild of Evangelion.

The New York Times published a brief, and somewhat scathing review of Evangelion 2.0 online on January 20th, and in print on January 21st.  While I, and some of my peers, would likely go into fanboy-mode and defend the image of Evangelion to the New York Times, citing certain misunderstanding or oversight into the franchise, […]

Rebuild 2.0 Trailer Leaked

By The Eva Monkey on Sunday, March 15th, 2009 in Evangelion 2.0, Rebuild of Evangelion.

Just as before, our first real look at Rebuild of Evangelion 2.0 is from a cellphone camera. This time, we don’t even have sound, and I think the quality is actually less. If I could pick apart everything that happens in this movie, it would amount to a mind boggling amount of stuff. Bardiel, Zeruel, […]
