Rebuild of Evangelion

[Archangel]

I just watched the first one and i guess it was alright.

I was never a big fan of this series for it's worthless, wimpy, pussy, (etc.) poor excuse for a protagonist and it how looked so desperate to make its viewer find it intellectual and complex, but this version is visually quite stunning with good fight scenes and impressively animated angels and evas so i found it to be pretty entertaining

The thing that i noticed the most was the lack of the scene where Eva-01 protects Shinji from the falling debris while it's empty



Does this mean that the Evas were built in a different way on this version?

As for 2.0, does it stray even further from the original plot? If i dare to dream, does shinky become less of a pussy? I'll settle for still a pussy but somewhat more rebellious like his manga counterpart. And does the megane girl in the end play a big part? She looks hot.
