Evangelion 3.33 Promotion Reel

So a pretty nice trailer for the third Rebuild of Evangelion movie was uploaded to YouTube (a mere five years after the movie was out). Unfortunately it has the movie name plastered on it the whole time, so I recreated the video. Here you’ll find the Vapoursynth script, usable with the Coalgirls (and maybe UTW-THORA) release of this movie. And here’s a torrent; the video can’t be uploaded to YouTube as it’s blocked instantly.
