Evangelion is live action too, you can read more at www.twilightskies.net, and see the trailer too >.>
Oh god damn...I hate Hollywood even more now...they are fu*king up a good anime...and why do they have to have more Evangelion movies? There's already 3 or 2.
there are 2 of the old movies, end of eva + death & rebirth. a summary one + backstory and the proper ending one.
the new eva movies are the anime remake movies which are being done by GAINAX.
the live action is being handled by ADV w/ werk for visuals, and ADV wanted it to be something the fans of eva would like not some crappy thing thats changed for the casual audience.
seriously the new eva movies are fine as they are all handled by GAINAX except the live action which has been promising in terms of what we have been told they would like to do with it.
hollywood has nothing to do with the live eva.
EDIT: eva trailer on this fools site was the rebuild of eva the animated one by GAINAX and not the live action one, more fail on his part for being unable to distinguish between animation and live actors
