just watch the NGE rebuilds dude, so good
you know, I watched the first one. It was really beautiful, but I actually found myself missing many of the more ambient scenes that they used. There was a lot of atmosphere and tension built into the original series, and I felt like a lot of that was lost as a result of some of the cuts.

I have no knowledge of the former, but NGE? and the movies? I wasn't a fan of GE, I think I only got around 16/17 episodes into it before I dropped it, and for the films, I've already seen "that scene" so that's put me of seeing it altogether. I just found the series incredibly dull, I thought shinji was, although realistic (to a degree) MC, he was an uninteresting one. I didn't like watching it, when I'm watching something boring, I tend to light up a joint. I did this for Chaos;Head, and I can tell you, I thought it was brilliant, until I started to come down, but with NGE, it dragged, one episode felt like 3, it was awful. In the end, there wasn't enough that interested me to keep me watching, I'm nto a massive fan of mechs, and I hate whiny children so I just stopped.
This is the problem: you didn't watch the whole series through. People dislike it for its slow build up, but its necessary, otherwise the show would not be as genius as it is. It's hard to describe this without spoiling anything, but - wait, why did you even begin to watch EoE if you hadn't watched past 16 episodes? You really need to just watch everything over again in order, and fight the urge to stop watching because you think it's "dull" (btw, if you let "that scene" put you off, you definitely need a better sense of context). Everything in Evangelion comes together perfectly, regardless of what anyone says. It's one of the most highly acclaimed animes, and the soundtrack is killer!!! I highly advise you reconsider your anime watching habits.
Also - Serial Experiments Lain is rockin' too. Watch it.
