Evangelion 2.0 : Coming Soon

Hell yes, Evangelion 2.0 is coming soon. The much anticipated remake and retelling of the 1995 anime that became one of the most famous series in Japanese history.  What really made the anime stand out was their treatment of the characters, all plagued with complex psychological issues along with themes dealing with religion and morality.  Mix this with some of the best mecha action sequences you'll ever see and you've got a really well rounded offering.

This remake is a labor of love by the makers, trying to tell the story right this time around. The original series was plagued with scheduling issues that resulted in a bizarre finale due to the makers being rushed.  This movie will be the second of four movies to be released by the studio, with the fourth movie supposedly being a completely new ending and continuation of the story.

As of now Amazon is listing it as a March 29, 2011 release for the US on Bluray. Highly recommended if you want to watch a classic, in a new light. With a discounted pre-order on Amazon for the Bluray, I highly recommend picking it up.
