Yes, it's different.
They touched up the animation through out the entire series, fixed inconsistances with the colorings (like the one scene in episode 22 where the interior of Misato's car looks like it was colored with a Mr. Sketch marker >.>), included all the footage that was edited out, used the high quality Laser Disc versions for the video and cleaned up the audio amoung other things. However, as ADV will be releasing the remastered DVDs starting next month(I think) under the title Neon Genesis Evangelion Platinium Edition (aka. Renewal) hold out a bit longer and buy the DVDs instead of robbing the people who worked so hard doing all this work of their livelyhoods. |

From what I've read, both endings are included. The original TV ending, very though provoking, and the movie ending, eye candy, were both included in the Renewal project. The Japanese release is 9 DVDs; DVD#8 has episodes 25 and 26 as well as a whole lot of extras while DVD#9 has Death(true)^2 and Air:My pure heart.
As per ADV's not licensing the movies. I can only guess that Gainax, to make more money, sold the title rights as seperate franchises and Manga Entertainment wont the bid. Whether or not ADV has the rights to the ReMastered movies is anyone's guess, although I think Manga Entertainment has them. >.>; |

This isn't just a minor touch up, it's a complete re-release. The visual quality actually rivals current shows with this touch up. And the sound is just... amazing... :/ |

I thought they switched to the LaserDisc version of the video but if it's basically been completely re-animated that's beyond great. I knew about the 5.1 audio, shame since I only have a 2.1 system connected to my DVD player. >.>;

It's not reanimated; they've gone back to the original film masters, and rescaned them (I have no idea what the correct technical terms are for that, sorry :P), cleaned them, made a progressive master, and then shoved them back onto DVD.
And yar, 5.1 track. Mr Paper, this is the perfect excuse to upgrade! Haha. One of the higher points of the 5.1 track is in the control center during the Angel battles: Having status reports and what not come out of 5 speakers is coooool |

Unfortunately, a 5.1 system would be difficult to fit in what little space I have ^^; It would also entail me buying a new reciever and new speakers. >.>;
I could always grab one of these: http://www.futureshop.ca/catalog/pro...0&WLBS=fsweb13 The life of a cheap bum... Sales are nice >.> |

OMG thread revival. I actually jumped a little being like "what they remastered Evangelion AGAIN? and I was this close to buying the platinum box set too!" But then I realized that this thread is two years old, and I can go buy the box set without fear of an even better remastered version coming out.
As for your question, I'm not sure what you mean. If you're talking about their renewal of EoE, an article from like a year ago said it was going to be sometime this year. But I haven't heard anything else, so I don't really know. |
