Well.

I... kind of want this, I think.

Just as long as it isn't a series of films that ruins itself in the third entry.

Aw, damn it, couldn't make it through the whole post without referencing Rebuild 3.33.

The fourth Evangelion film is now officially delayed until after we're all dead.

I don't know. It was even on several Japanese news channels, so it may be legit. I hope it is, I know he's a big fan of tokusatsu and kaiju films, and he'd probably make a great one.

I came here to type EXACTLY this. I hope it's more like his 90's works and not like the abomination that was 3.33.

Wish they would get the director of the 90's Gamera trilogy to do another Godzilla film. All Monsters Attack is really one of best of the series. Not sure if Hideaki Anno is a good fit for this,but we'll see.

How about they make a movie of the Big G fighting Eva Unit 01 Berserker Mode?

Seems very much like an April Fool's joke to me.

Japan's fiscal year starts on April 1st.

Considering the immense love Anno has for the live action special effects film branch as shown by his later works, I can only see this as a good thing.

Yeah, who could have predicted 3.33 wouldn't have a plot?

This right here^ I'm tired of hearing everyone BS about Eva 3.33. I'd rather have something ambitious and ballsy in its execution than the same thing over and over. Of course all I'm doing is feeding the trolls, so yeah, I'm going to end it right here. Also am looking forward to this film as well!

I disliked 3.33 at first but I like it now. Confused

Anyway this should be great. Now give me a live action Eva film, Q,
and 3.33 stateside and I'll be happy.

Oh no, he's becoming self aware!

Words cannot express how excited this announcement makes me. And I really, REALLY hope it isn't an early April Fool's joke.
