Not defending Anno but Christopher Nolan talking about intellectualism is a joke.

>“I’ve never gotten anything out of his works. They have felt constructed, faux intellectual, and completely dead. Cinematographically uninteresting and infinitely boring. Nolan is a fucking bore. He’s made his films for the fans. One of the movies, The Dark Knight Rises was screened here in London. It was mind-numbingly boring.”

Say what you will about the overall quality of the film but even it's biggest detractors will admit the cinematography is great.

>Evangelion isn't a masterpiece because it is genuinely good, Evangelion is good because it is flawed, terribly written and very, very honest. Hideaki Anno wasn't an scholar or a particularly smart person; Hideaki Anno, during Evangelion,'s production, was a depressed and angry college drop-out with little education that poured all of his frustrations and disappointment into a TV show inspired by everything he loved in life, this everything being Go Nagai manga and Tomino anime as we all know that Evangelion's story is nothing but a joint of quotations of Go Nagai and Tomino stories. Anno's childish temper, anger, lack of talent and restraint and depressed nature are the reason Evangelion is brilliant.

It's even funnier when you realise that Ping Pong the Animation has better characterisation then anything Anno could even dream of.

>>124585030
it was brilliant beyond words just as eoe was, if this was a real quote (which its not) he was saying it out of anger that his source of inspiration was mentioned to his face.

It absolutely is terribly written. Eva has one of the most childish, amateurish scripts in anime history. This has been the consensus of anime scholars for many years now, step up senpai. Anno is a good director and animator but devoid of ability as a writer.

4. Ingmar Bergman on Jean-Luc Godard:
“I’ve never gotten anything out of his movies. They have felt constructed, faux intellectual, and completely dead. Cinematographically uninteresting and infinitely boring. Godard is a fucking bore. He’s made his films for the critics. One of the movies, Masculin, Féminin, was shot here in Sweden. It was mind-numbingly boring.”

5. Orson Welles on Jean-Luc Godard:
“His gifts as a director are enormous. I just can’t take him very seriously as a thinker — and that’s where we seem to differ, because he does. His message is what he cares about these days, and, like most movie messages, it could be written on the head of a pin.”

6. Werner Herzog on Jean-Luc Godard:
“Someone like Jean-Luc Godard is for me intellectual counterfeit money when compared to a good kung-fu film.”

you could write a book describing the conflicts and theories of each character, including the side ones, in NGE. If you included what they contribute to the main theme and the juxtaposition with other characters it'd be a series of books.

Why does /tv/ only consist of memes?

>>124585963

>>124585963
Because television and movies are as popular as it gets. Just like video games.

>>124585963

Because it's funny, /a/ tries and fails to have serious discussion that quickly degenerate into circlejerks about animated chinese schoolgirls. /tv/ doesn't try to have serious discussion, it recognises the inherent folly of attempting that on 4chan and instead engages in fascinatingly postmodern series of every deepening meta-memes.

Mainstream medium attracts the worst userbase, like how 4chan becoming mainstream led to /b/ and /b/ equivalents being awful. /a/ only stretches towards decent because anime isn't nearly as popular a medium and most shitty anime fans choose to use sites like MAL or various fansites intsead.

Being made up doesn't mean something is meaningless. That would make every story ever made meaningless.

Wrong. Schyamalan made better movies than Nolan.

I seriously doubt Yuasa and Nolan said any of those things. But if they did, it just means they are that much more pretentious than Anno is. Anno, despite being an eccentric weirdo, usually is pretty respectful to other creators' works.

>>124593972
Yeah but for some stories there are intentional meanings like Animal Farm. Or they try to lead the audience to learn something new. I'd argue that Evangelion sorta does that maybe. Also the Kabbalistic influence seems appropriate in Evangelion because Kabbalah is abstract and vague as fuck, even Wikipedia doesn't know what it means.

I would claim that most stories contain both intentional and unintentional meaning hidden somewhere in their folds, but yeah, some are certainly more direct and specific about it than others.
