So the need to see the old ones is based on how much of a mind-#### you're willing to go through. It's a remake of the entire series, composed of 4 movies, I believe The first 3 are remakes, the fourth apparently will be a new storyline altogether. new like "angelic days" manga or new as in "new" new Dunno, most presumably new as in "new".

Eva asks more of you, tha's all. another great point DS

Really? I was told rebuild 4 was going to be a drastic revamp of End of Eva: essentially the same, but with less mindeff. I'm kinda scared about 4, though. You can't end Eva without everyone turning into LCL. I actually mostly got the End of Eva...does that mean I'm screwed up? Also, It's not that difficult to get. Read a little on Revelations, the Kabbalah and listen to the song Zero-sum from NIN's Year Zero, and it's basically the same thing. The depth and complexity really lies in how the characters behave.

They may have gotten some inspiration from that, but how much, I'm unsure. Most of the series draws on Kabbalah (occult Jewish mysticism) in terms of the messed up relations between characters in Nerv and the Angels etc... I don't know what Zero-sum is.
