Well, the original design philosophy for the EV As was "incredible power under restraint," or something along those lines, and Giger doesn't really do restraint. Still, he could probably come up with some sick (in every sense of the phrase) armor designs, and would definitely have to do the "unmasked" EVA designs.

[up][up] The only things I can remember are Shamshel the Purple Penis and Rei's forehead vagina. That doesn't really make up a motiff.

No. Those designs have to be WICKED SICK. Evas are GODLIKE beings. I mean HOLY SHIT, those MONSTER KILLS...  *

Remeber when EVA 01 went on a RAMPAGE? Remember when Eva 02 went on a KILLING SPREE and beat NINE equals in like THREE minutes with No One Could Survive That! wounds that they only recovered from because the director was a dick?

We need a clip like this for EVA. I'm sure it's easy to do.

Well, it'll most likely be penises with eyes instead of vaginas.

Fight smart, not fair.

You mean with eyes inside of forehead vaginas.

Or a dick with a vagina for a slit with an eye on the inside. With a dick sticking out of the cornea or something. Cause, fuck your sanity.

"fuck your sanity" is what Eva is all about...

So...

End of Eva?

This weekend, Spork. Don't worry, I'll do it.

It's not exactly naive. And it can happen. But it's tough. And definetly worthwhile.

Awesome. I fucking love that movie to death, but I know it can really bring out a wide range of entertaining reactions from people, all the way from nerd-rage to "the fuck?" to hysterical laughter.

Was there a point in reviving this thread?

I don't think so, but it's cool to see it back. The fact that the thread is subtitled "from a non-otaku point of view" is kind of Hilarious in Hindsight, as Juan kind of is an otaku by now.

Just so you know, I'm doing a re-liveblogging of the series with him right now. You can find it here.

[up]His schedule kind of caught up with him and kept him from working on it, IIRC.
