So... This movie... wow... I'll let the captions do the talking.

There is a missing 14 years of footage between 2.22 and 3.33. It shows. |
|
The world is dying!... again! |
|
Starting to get really upset about the lack of exposition, and who decided on that eyepatch anyways? |
|
MOAR EXPLOSIONS! MOAR! |

Friends don't let friends explain things symbolically... |
So in summary... very pretty WTF action. Also the entire movie could have been avoided by having the supporting characters spend about 40 seconds of their free time explaining the situation to Shinji in the beginning.
Also would it kill them to not treat like dirt the person with the capability of destroying the earth?
Who also wants to be their friend?
Who also has a tendency to do anything for the first person to treat him decently?
Also this hate being displayed towards the main character... didn't you cheer him on at the end of the last movie and witness his innocence to the things you are hating on him for?
Perhaps the missing 14 years sheds a bit of light on the situation but that footage is conveniently missing.
All in all I enjoyed the film (it was really pretty), but character development was non-existent compared to the previous movies. I'm also curious to see where they are taking the story now that they are 14 years in the future. I guess I'll see when the last movie comes out.
