I mean... evangelion always sucked. Ham-handed philosophy, faux-existential whining, devolving into gibbering nonsense the further on you got. It's the epitome of focusing so much on artistry that it forgets how to be cohesive.

And its well-documented budget issues really, REALLY start to show more and more with each passing episode

Out of every Anime out there, Cowboy Bebop can be adapted into live action probably the best. I mean, Firefly was basically live action Cowboy Bebop

They redubbed and it's complete shit. Not to mention they censored it, changed some of the dialogue like Kowaru being gay for Shinji, and literally removing Fly Me to the Moon from the credits.

Yeah, Cowboy Bebop is carried by its strong characters and semi-grounded sci-fi setting. It's got some wild shit from time to time, but for the most part it seems really simple to adapt. Just stick to the script, hire strong actors, don't make any ludicrous changes to the backstory, and everything should be fine.

I never liked it. Maybe part of it is because I watched it as a kid and the themes flew over my head, but even looking at it now it doesn't seem that fantastic.

It's an unfair comparison. Death Note is amazing, but it was created as a comic book. The anime is just an adaptation of the comic, and IMO is not that good.

Evangelion is the opposite, it was created as an anime.


^ he's talking about the live-action Death Note movie on Netflix

Eva blew my fucking mind when I was 13 years old. Jesus Christ. Metaphors upon scifi theory of technology and mind upon metaphors and a real kid who was scared for good reason.

I still love it, but I wish I could watch it again for the first time.

-Light Turner
-The whole movie takes place entirely in highschool
-Misa (called Mia in this version) is a manipulative bitch towards Light and nothing like her anime/manga counterpart at all
-William Dafoe as Ryuk is great, but he literally doesn't do shit in the whole movie. He's just there just so they can say William Dafoe is Ryuk >_> He adds nothing to the plot after he gives the Death Note to Light
-L turns into this emotional baby halfway through and literally reveals his face to Light for no reason when he had everything to lose doing it >_>
-Also, the orphanage subplot for L came out of nowhere and literally leads to nothing anyway so it feels like a waste of screentime.
-There's over the top gore in a bunch of scenes just to be edgy when the original rarely ever showed any gore at all.
-Light acts like a dumbass most of the film and then magically pulls out this 2000IQ stunt at the end which feels completely out of character to what he has shown for 90% of the movie.

The whole movie is a complete mess. I don't think it's even that fun to watch for a "so bad it's good" factor, imo.

Those battles really aren't anything special. I've seen better on the worst Gundam series.

Do you want a Death Note where:
-light is a legit dumbass. A horny dumbass.
-light's only motivation for being Kira is to get in Mia's pants
-the cat-and-mouse game between L and Light straight up doesnt exist
-L decides the best way to deal with Kira is to pick up a (laser?) gun and chase light on foot through the streets. With no proof.
-ryuk spends the whole movie trying to get light to give up the book and pass it to someone else
-did I mention light is about as smart as a lobotomized goldfish? The dude literally brings the death note to school and tells the first girl who asks exactly what it is and how it works

Death Note might be a legit so bad it's good movie.

The scene where L just straight up chases Light on foot to murder him, despite zero evidence, is comedy gold.
