So I was browsing through one of my favorite trailer sites and on the first page was surprised to see this:

Since Evangelion:1.0 did not come close to our area in the theaters, I didn’t hold out much hope for a showing close enough to drive to, let alone a local showing. I went to the theater list and cheered out loud when I saw it would be shown in the city I live in. I’m excited and looking forward to the showing. As a bonus, I noticed the theater here will also be showing Evengelion:1.0 just before Evangelion:2.0. (Guess whose getting 2 tickets).

From the preview I saw on the FUNimation site and the below, it looks like it may be a pretty good movie.

The Illustrious Mari

I’m not sure what to think of the addition of a new character (Mari) but I’ll treat this as I did the first.  I’ll go in with an open mind trying my best to ignore the original series. I’d love to hear what you thought of the movie if you have seen it already or if you are planning to see it when it hits the theaters here in the States.

Amazon has already posted a page for the Blu-Ray release slated April 5, 2011…

Welcome to 2011! Hope everyone had a safe and fun New Years celebration. Lets dive in shall we… with this new year, Network is kicking it off with 4 shows for u-verse :

Demon Lord Dante
Kino’s Journey
Mahoromatic: Automatic Maiden
Samurai Girls

I’ve seen Kino’s Journey and even though it can be a bit odd at times found it enjoyable. I’m looking forward to watching this series again. As to the rest of the shows, I’ve only seen pieces so I don’t have an opinion yet.
