Oooh ... big thanks are due to Tracy for this one ... she just passed on the link for the new and improved WETA website - okay, I don't know how new this actually is since I haven't been there in ages - and a healthy gallery of production designs for the proposed live action adaptation of Neon Genesis Evangelion. There are a bunch here that I've never seen before, and they look fantastic ... sadly, the website notes that the film is currently on hold which is not really a surprise given how long and complex the story is, but if it ever gets made it's obvious that WETA will have things looking fantastic ... check out the full gallery here.

I'm really starting to get a picture of how this will turn out. The effects will most likely look fantastic but just as everything that relies on CG - especially in hollywood films; the CG will be way too 'clean'. I just hate it when films use CG and it looks good and all, but it's just too pixel perfect.
Eva is just doing a run on a local station and I'm watching it through the third or fourth time and I seriously doubt they are going to get anything Anno-like into this film, I can see how this will likely become a lot like all the recent comic book films with flashy effects but no soul.
