Patronizing? Charles Solomon sounds biased...
I don't know about the rest of you, but I think the "professionals" writing the editorial reviews are supposed to be unbiased. But, labeling the commentary about the live action EVA as patronizing is sadly a biased statement. I understand some people are unable to cope with the fact that Anime are being brought to America in a form of live action entertainment but, I find this to be quite enthralling. Think of it, beautifully rendered CG Eva models, charecters (hopefully) portraying our beloved Eva charecters in all their mind-shatteringly disturbing glory.On to the Review:I first watched these directors cut's off of a bootleg website in Japanese (I only understand like... what and hello in Japanese) and I was blown away. The story unravelled itself for me through the mere visuals of this astounding new Rebirth. Ah, I just caught the cornyness of it... Death, Rebirth, End, and Ressurection. I guess Anno could be less involved with death, couldn't he? Anyways, I have high hopes for all future Eva products. What a beautiful DVD! 5 and 1/2 Stars! (I always hate when people do that)p.s. If anyone can force the Anime Network to start broadcasting in my area I'd really appreciate it. (Broward County, FL)
