Micheal Bay's Evangelion ( Rumor / False )

I really hope this is just rumor, but what did you guys think of Micheal bay directing it?

Hmm...taking a whiny, pretentious, overrated piece of shit and giving it to Bay. A guy who prides himself on explosions and hot chicks...sounds like an improvement.

I don't know. I mean, we saw what happened to Transformers. I think people should stick to homages instead of making actual movies of classics, whether they be anime, show, or movie. I know not every one enjoyed this movie, but I'm gonna use Pacific Rim as an example. It was an homage to mecha anime of the past and it was really enjoyable because of all the references such as the Big O elbow rocket scene or the Voltronesque sword avatar scene. If it was anything more than that, I don't think I would have enjoyed it at all.

You forgot to mention how it took the two pilot thing from the last Eva movie.

OT:
Someone just needs to kill him.

I seriously hope this is just a rumor/joke. I know Hollywood has a hard on for "Americanizing" everything and they also have the tendency to fuck up good original stories with their pre-school humor and mindless action just like in the case of Transformers (I know, this is just my opinion).

Yes, Transformers movies do have some amazing CGI and action scenes in them, but the rest of the film is (TO ME) pure horse shit. Acting is bad, humor is horrible, the script and events are ridicules and without logic.

I personally think the description for Michael Bays Evangelion film, would be the same as it is for Transformers.

I would hope that doesn't happen, if they're ever going to make a live action they should at least try to make it good, not give it to someone like Bay.

If Michael Bay wants to continue to rape my childhood shows (Transformers, TMNT), he's better off doing Voltron. Leave my adolescence alone!!! I really hope this is bullshit.

Oh boy....that'd be the next Avatar or Dragon Ball Evolution.

Sure enough he'd probably get the explosions down fine (well maybe not, he seems to think the world is full of fireworks), but yeah I can see him trying to hit on the themes of the series and messing that up royally.

But yeah, couldn't see that ending well. Though I suppose at least it wouldn't be as bad compared to if M. Night Shyamalan was behind it.

Don't tempt fate. Not for a series like this.

This shouldn't happen. Michael Bay will manage to make the STAPLE of whiny MC's more unattractive than he was originally(well Shinji started to warm up a little bit later on) and the ONLY thing he will see if he's going off of End of Evangelion is explosions. Not an obscure look at the human morality and interpersonal relationships. Hopefully, this ends here as a rumor.

It can't be as bad as Uwe Boll directing. Even if Bay's movies are crap, most of you have to admit that you at least kind of enjoyed watching some of them. I had fun watching Transformers, even as my ears recovered.

I'm not gonna go into it expecting some thought provoking drama or timeless classic or Oscar bait or some shit like that. I'm going in there to see titties and explosions, which if you remember Evangelion, was what it was all about by the end.

Also, remember that rumor that Zac Effron would play Sousuke in the Full Metal Panic live-action? Remember how that played out? This'll probably do the same.

[size=8]Seriously, Uwe. It's really hard to fuck up a formula as simple as House of the Dead. Agents go in Science-y mansion, shoot zombies, save scientists, shoot special boss zombies every 20 minutes to make a well rounded 2 hour movie with every character in it. Not difficult. How the hell did you fuck that up so royally.[/h]

Good news, guys!

It's a huge relief that Bay isn't doing EVA. The man faps to explosions, what can you expect from him anyway. At least he's not getting his dynamite filled hands on it.

Good thing he's not doing it. He would've just turned it into another boring and mindless summer blockbuster explosion porno.

Good now we just need for Rebuild 4.0 to come out and be amazing.

Bay had his hay day with the transformers series, jsut because evangelion has giant mech too, dosnt mean he should direct it. i dont think he has the finess as a director to flesh out all the character complexities.

Not to be hating on Bay, but fuck that. I dont trust ANYBODY to do it. I dont care if Anno swears it will be a win himself. NO WAY BRO. Its not happening. It would have to be absolutely perfect, or I would never live down the shame.
