Anime Goes Hollywood

wait wait... you haven't heard about the Evangelion movie?

Okay, for those of you who haven't heard of this (don't know how that's possible), here's the lowdown:

ADV approached a major film Studio (Universal I believe), with the idea of creating an Eva movie or movie series; the also approached WETA Workshop (the people who did the Lord of the Rings movies' special effects). Although the companies are dying to do it, especially WETA, they've put it on hold for now, because WETA is working on another project, and they're waiting for James Cameron's Battle Angel Alita movie to come out and see how that's recieved before going ahead with the Evangelion movie. In effect, they wanna see how ready the American public is for Anime-based movies, considering how Comic-based movies are becoming normal here in America.

And don't forget, Studio GAiNAX is also involved in the production. Or was and will be, as the case may be.
