They're not even being subtle about it.

about what?

;)

Nobody complained back then so what's the point of complaining now? It wasn't subtle back then either

The Jaegers now looks EXTREMELY similar to the robots from Evangelion

New Gipsy in particular really looks like Unit 01

>>79295299

He a fucking liar though, actually I'm now curious if Anno even commented on Pacific Rim in any way

>>79295299
For all the geeky shit that guy gets up to you figured he would have at least seen that show. But I mean I believe him, he is on the older side.

>>79295183
>new jaegers
muh dick

>>79295347
>>79295354
Yeah, he claims to be aware of it, so we could have taken some inspiration.
He's definitely seen other mecha anime.

>we want the anie may audience

i only watched evangelion and the movie once

and even when i saw the first movie it was evangelion lite

im certain these new jaegars are gonna be reversed engineered kaiju too

>Anno, however, is not a fan of live-action films derived from his anime. He dismisses “Pacific Rim,” with its “Evangelion”-inspired tussles between giant aliens and human-piloted robots, as “not so interesting.”

Pretty tame and not surprising. And it's funny because from what I understand Evangelion is a big nod to Anno's own love for live action sci-fi specifically Ultraman.

>>79295183
Evangelion is better as an anime anyway

the red robot in the background does still look a lot like eva unit 2 though

There was barely anything resembling Eva in the first film, what are you talking about?

>>79295320
they aren't robots

It's not about them copying anime, it's about them being a bunch of unoriginal fuckheads ripping off pre-existing designs.

I hope they get sued to hell and back.

>>79295183
>>79295695
The twist is the new jaegers are built on top of the kaiju bodyparts

>>79295663

>There was barely anything resembling Eva in the first film

That didn't sto ppeople from making the comparisons, there were things like Rinko's blue hair streak = Rei, the Kaiju on the back of the aircraft carrier in reference to Asuka's first appearance, etc etc

>>79295183
Who gives a shit?

>>79296032
retards with too much time on their hands.

>>79295995
The comparisons are still slippery and speak more to a lack of familiarity with Evangelion's influences than Evangelion's actual unique qualities.

Pacific Rim had more in common with Getter Robo Go than Evangelion (not that I'm denying Evangelion inspiring Pacific Rim).

>>79295986
>it's about them being a bunch of unoriginal fuckheads ripping off pre-existing designs.
Anime steals from the West all the goddamn time, you filthy weeaboo.

>>79295183
this is clearly movie lore. The world is gonna idolise jagers and create toys out of them.

>>79296142
that already happened in the first one though

>>79295993
and then they turn evil by getting possesed by kaiju spirits like in that godzilla vs kiryu movie

>>79296138
they don't steal, they reinterpret and deconstruct

when fat retards at hollywood take "inspiration" from other works it gets watered down and simplified

>>79296202

You can't water down trash even more than it already is. If you were talking about classic eastern europoor cinema then it would make sense.

Thanks doc

Is Evangelion Any Good?

>>79296706
Why don't you watch and decide for yourself?

>>79296724

Because I don't wanna waste all that time only to find out it's shit

>>79296706
yes, it's the best show of the 90s


Rebuilds on the other hand should not be watched

>>79296739
it has one of the most unlikeable main characters in stories ever (shinji).but is good

>>79296706
No, it's pseudointellectual trash for edgy as fuck pseudointellectual teenagers rebelling agains mummy and daddy for the first time

hahahahahaha wow. you must be a blast to hang out with.
>>79296706
Eva's great and it's influence on other anime is hard to overstate - it's only 26ish episodes so I'd say give it a shot and if you can watch "the end of evangelion"

>>79296924

Misato and Shinji should fuck

I read a Misato and Shinji doujin once and it turned me on. Is that wrong?

>>79295320

OP's picture is shooped you idiot. Gypsy is still blue.

>>79297007
>Gypsy is still blown the fuck up
you mean

disclaimer: i am american citizen of chinese descent.

The first one was an unexpected hit but this one will straight up bomb.

WHY THE FUCK would you have Boyega as your star when your biggest audience are the asian countries, specifically China? Couldn't they have at least picked a handsome looking black guy!? Boyega's facial structure is exactly like those stereotypical black caricatures you see in the shiieeetttt cartoons all the time. Star Wars made money because it's Star Wars not because of him.

I was crazy excited for the sequel but I can tell you that no Asian wants to see an ugly black lead in a movie.

>>79295183
So why the fuck are the kaiju back? I thought they nuked the ayys

>>79295183
>shiny plastic Jaegers

What the fuck is this shit?

>>79296797
>edgy
Not really. It can be grim, but the original series actually ends on an unambiguously uplifting note.

>>79297093
Newt cloned the kaiju because he's a kaiju groupie, and now there's kaiju.

>>79296706

its good if you're in your teens

Tried to watch Evangelion but the pseudo-intellectual talk was too much.

>burger ev- jaeger - muscle car of mecha
>chink jaeger - three-handed kung-fu shit
>straya jaeg- who the fuck cares about those cunts anyway

>ruskies mecha is a fucking retarded mountain of shit welded together, that not even a drunken slav could conceive in his inebriated mind
>not to mention the pilots that stick out like Liberty Statue in the middle of Red Square, who also are the only ones that don't wear helmets
>but they can pull a nuke out their ass at the drop of ushanka

As expected of an ignorant /tv/ pleb. Anno's been involved in more than one solid anime. Just because Rebuild is crappy and he's the Japanese George Lucas doesn't mean Eva and EoE are the only good things he's ever done.

>>79297362
same here, why would i want to actually watch this garbage. I come for the robot fights

Coming from the person who made the shitty rebuild flicks
