Little Art is not too far for Clevelanders when it comes to Evangelion

My kids were into Anime. Frankly, I could never understand its appeal. Evangelion is a name that has crossed my radar a few times. Apparently there is a remake of it and it is coming to the Little Art Theatre in town. Huh... I didn't realize there was a first movie. Nevertheless, "the English version of this first installment of the four-film, big-screen re-imagining of the groundbreaking 1994 anime series 'Neon Genesis Evangelion' started showing at select conventions and theaters on the east and west coasts and across Canada. However, new showings have been added to the movie's schedule, and a couple are a day trip away!" according to the Cleveland Examiner. And guess what, Clevelanders see us as being within their range for going to the movies.

"The Little Art Theater in Yellow Springs, OH will be showing the film next weekend, September 11-13. Showtimes will be at 11:00 pm Friday and 4:30 pm Saturday and Sunday. Ticket prices are $7.50 on Friday ($6.50 for children 12 and under and seniors) and $6.00 for all patrons the rest of the weekend. You can not advance purchase the tickets online," the article said.

Flashback to American Splendor, the indie about Harvey Pekar the underground cartoonist. There was a character in the movie, which coincidentally was set in Cleveland, who was prepared to drive to Toledo to see a movie.
