Tokyo's Shinjuku Wald 9 theater has announced that all nine
of its screens will show the Evangelion: 3.0 You Can (Not) Redo (Evangelion
Shin Gekijō-ban Q Quickening) movie at midnight on November 17. The Shinjuku
Wald 9 movie theater has a total of over 1,800 seats in the facility. On the
same day of the movie's release, Shinjuku Wald 9 will also screen, for the
first time in a theater, Evangelion: 1.11 You Are (Not) Alone and Evangelion:
2.22 You Can (Not) Advance (the latest versions of these two previous films)
for a limited time.
Tickets for these midnight screenings will be available
through the LAWSON Ticket servce starting this Saturday. Further details will
be posted on the official Rebuild of Evangelion website.
The previous film, Evangelion: 2.22 You Can (Not) Advance,
earned 4 billion yen (about US$50 million) in box-office revenue in 2009. The
title of the third film was first revealed with a teaser that ran at the end of
the second film's theatrical release. The "Q" or "Kyū" in
the third film's title is a wordplay in Japanese; the first three films'
subtitles are the names for the three classical movements (Jo-Ha-Kyū or
Introduction-Exposition-Climax) of traditional Japanese music such as gagaku
and Noh.
