Please tell me that this is a joke
Now I am not one of those people that hate Keanu, but he simply cannot be Shinji! For two big reasons:
No, this has to be a joke. This is too stupid for words. Well, if you did have to have a white guy, Pachino is ot a bad choice for Gendo.
Nah, this can’t be real.
Ugh, copy and paste the image url.
They are probably changing the characters of the three Eva pilots and making them older in the movie. That’s probably a good move since it will be quite hard to get teenagers who can pull of the roles of Shinji,Rei and Asuka the way they are done in the series.
I doubt the film will be as good as the series but unless it gets truly horrible reviews I will probably check it out.
Anyone else has more information about the film?
Gads, that is horrid. Animes should stay animated, and little Japanese boys should not turn into white men.
Isn’t Keanu half-Asian?
Anyway I think the film should be judged on its own terms. There is no way that they will be able to buld up the characters and story like in the series but if they get some good writers and director there is no reason why you couldn’t get a decent film which shares the same broad theme as the series while making some big changes.
It must be a joke.
There’s nothing in IMDB, the closest thing is this, which is Danish, and doesn’t have anyo of the actors mention on that poster.
It’s a joke. Hideakki Anno would probably kill the perpetrator of such a film with his own bare hands. Besides, the linked poster doesn’t look at all professional.
Keanu Reeves would do an even worse Shinji than Spike Spencer (the English voice actor). Besides, with Keanu as Shinji, they would have to get River Phoenix to be Kaworu, and he’s dead.
The film seems to be real enough but the poster in the OP is probably a joke.
Egads! As if that series wasn’t confusing enough as it was, they’re going to try to cram it into a two and a half hour version? Dumb. Very, very dumb.
I’m picturing Keanu in a live-action version of those last two episodes.
I think I pulled something in my brain.
In the “not one of the highest achievements of Lilim culture” column…
