Does anybody know when this is coming out?

No, no new news has been brought up about the production and development of this movie thus why the thread died, so stop necroposting these topics. The movie is currently still being made, I say wait 2 or 3 years and it might hit theaters eventually...

Reading back through some of this I found that several people were worried that Americans, or more precisely Christian Americans, would be offended by the theme's of this show and thus they would have to omit all the religious references.

I happen to be an American, more precisely a Christian American. While this means I earn the direspect and contempt from several of you and maybe even Toecutter's hate, it does not mean that I take offence to the themes of Evangelion. I watched the show, watched both movies, and currently own the Perfect Collection and EoE. If I should make an AMV one day, it would probably be to Eva. I realized the purpose of the referances, which are more referances to mythology than the Bible are meant as a means of telling a story. Even the referances aren't anti-Christian once you understand the point of it all.

Anyway, just wanted to point out that the movie could be true to the original story and still be successful. Contoversial- yes, but it's that already.

If some of you are still wondering how they would cast Rei, I remember this one character from
the Farscape series who was sort of an albino. They should use some of the same make-up
techniques for Rei.

If there is any controversy because it has some religious themes and someone got bent out of
shape over it, it would probably result in a short run in the theaters and go straight to video. This
happened with a movie called Max, I think that's what it was called. It was about a man's
relationship with Hitler when he was a young artist. The plot followed him as he degenerated into
the mad dictator. A lot of critics loved it, but the general audience hated it because it made Hitler
human. Since no one liked it, it went straight to video, need to see it sometime. Who knows, a
similar deal might happen with the Eva movie.

I remember someone said in a parody casting, Keanu Reeves would play Gendo.
Fuyutuski: So what are we going to do about the old men?
Gendo: Don't worry. I know kung-fu.
Fuyu: ...uh, sure you do.

Makoto: Unit-01 has arrived at the surface.
Gendo: (upon seeing 01 for the first time)WHHOOOAAAA! EXCELENT!

Yeah, that's Gigi Edgley. The name of the character she played was Chiana (sp?)

As for the Eva movie going straight to video, I highly doubt it considering the amount of money they're going to be spending on it. If they've got the special effects guys who worked on the LotR movies, you know the price tag of the Eva film is gonna be huge.
