Evangelion: 1.0 You Are (Not) Alone kicks off Hideaki Anno's cinematic retelling of the Neon Genesis Evangelion television series by more-or-less recreating the first few episodes of the show shot-for-shot. Ian and Joseph take it as an opportunity to introduce Eva to film critic and festival programmer Logan Taylor. She helps the hosts answer the question "What is Eva like for a grown person who hasn't seen it before?" Her answers may surprise you. Along the way she introduces the hosts to the cocnept of 'generous filmmaking,' while the boys indoctrinate her into the 'screaming geometrically' Ramiel meme fandom. The trio also takes apart auteur theory rather than rebuild Anno's mystique.
