I want to punch Studio Khara's collective ballsacks. You could have ended the tie ins with the Eva horse, and you'd have ended em on a high note. Now you're just trolling. Either way I suspect I'd still be waiting on that 4th movie all the same, but I guess what I'm saying is that I really liked the Eva horse and all this extra crap is just them dangling an unnecessary carrot in front of my face.

I'm gonna chalk this up to me being bad at internet. I was screwing around. Not really bothered that much, even if I do feel like the short felt like more buzz for a movie that's got plenty of it already. It was nifty, the music was good, and it gave us more to look at in the post-whatever Impact Tokyo III we're at now. It just makes the wait harder, is all.

4.4 is just going to be a two hour run of Star Fox 64, closing with a boss fight against the polygonal head of Hideaki Anno, laughing.

When he's beaten the screen goes white except for a portrait sized square of black in the middle of the screen. Insults and derision appear in scrawled handwriting on the white border, as you hear them whispered out loud by the cast. The black of the portrait square deepens, and you see your own face in the reflection of the screen.

Alternatively, 4.4's blu-ray case has a single floppy disc in it containing a Windows 95 screensaver of Pen Pen floating in a pool, on a lilo, drinking beers.

Funimation has it back up on their website for pre-order so it may come out a mere year behind schedule.

Nope. The movies were always licensed from NTV with Khara holding power as original creator (along with Anno). It's basically that Funi hosed up so badly with translation/dubbing to the point where Khara's English staff wanted it to be re-done differently and Khara's own subtitle track used. If you want someone to blame for the delay, Funi are your people.

I'm a sucker for alternate what-ifs and production background stories, so apologies if this is the 6000th time this has been asked in the thread before, but: was the TV series story arc planned from the beginning, and if so, how closely did the series adhere to the plan?

There were some short episode synopsises included with the original proposal for the series from 1993. They start notably deviating from the final product around episode 12 (some similarities remain though). Here they are in all their haphazardly translated glory:

Neon Genesis Evangelion Proposal posted:

Episode 13: What comes after fear: The great defeat Shinji had expected to come. The breakdown of the Eva unit-01. Shinji gets trapped inside.

Episode 14: An illness that leads to death, and: A rescue from the damaged unit-01. A drama of people. Shinji learns true fear and hopelessness.

Episode 15: Shinji, once again: After his recovery, Shinji's decision to ride the Eva unit-01 once again. The Eva unit-01 is given an overhaul remake job.

Episode 16: In the heart of the enemy: Shinji is taken into and Angel and for the first time, communication is made. Part of the Angels' objective is brought to light.

Episode 17: Asuka's 1st date: Asuka goes to an amusement park for the first time. Misato's past. A romance comedy.

Episode 18: the choice of life: Shinji fights the Angel-controlled Eva unit-03 piloted by his friend. The choice Shinji makes.

Episode 19: A man's battle: Asuka is heavily wounded protecting Shinji. Shinji tries to prove himself to her. The Evas' first aerial battle. Kaji's death.

Episode 20: Nerv's birth: The Eva unit-05 is sent to Nerv from Germany. A story of what happened 15 years ago: The evaporation of the Dead sea, the creation of Nerv and the Evas. A story of Shinji's father.

Episode 21: At least, like a human: An underwater battle around a sunken ship. Shinji receives a mental attack by an Angel. A story of Shinji's mother.

Episode 22: The cat and the transfer student: The first humanoid Angel (child with a pet cat) Nerv's accidental allowing of the Angel's entry into the laboratory. Shinji's dilemma of fighting a humanoid Angel. The laboratory's greatest secret is shown.

Episode 23: "The Human Instrumentality Project" The secrets of Eva and the Human Instrumentality Project unveiled, along with the truth behind the goals of Ritsuko and Shinji's father.

Episode 24: "Now, the Promised Time" Rei breaks down. Her secrets are revealed. At last awakened, the twelve strongest Apostolos descend from the Moon. Both Eva Unit-06 and the American continent vanish completely. Humans acknowledge their helplessness in the face of the Apostolos' crushing power. The promised time, when people will return to nothing, approaches. A human drama in the depths of despair.

Episode 25: "Arka, the Promised Land" The laboratory holds the ancient ruins of Arka, which have become key. In order to stop the twelve Apostolos, the United Nations' head members annul the Human Instrumentality Project and resolve to destroy the Apostolos. Shinji's father objects. Shinji and the others stay at the laboratory for Rei. A drama of people conflicting over incongruous objectives.

Final Episode: "The Only Neat Thing to Do" On the stage of the destroyed laboratory, all mysteries and drama are concluded. The denouement.

EDIT:
Other notable differences is that episode 1 would have been more like the manga version, with Shinji witnessing Rei fighting the Angel in Unit-01, and episode 4 would have apparently have centred around Gendo refusing to say "Congratulations!" to Shinji on his birthday.
