I liked it well enough. A lot of the problems that people have with it are that the film turns into a confusing mess while being judged as an individual movie unlike 1.00 and 2.00.

Third impact didn't happen and kill every one of those pricks

..? It turns into a confusing mess while judged as the third part of a series, too

I'll tell you what wrong. The true story behind it all. Hideaki Anno, Tsurumaki and the big names behind behind Khara stopped concerning themselves about writing a story that had meaning, or a message. Instead they focused on giving their own favorite characters (Asuka, Kaworu) the best possible representation, and their least favorite character (Rei) the worst representation.

They are, as everyone who knows them will tell you including their spouses - otaku. Huge otaku, who care intensively about character popularity - hence this is the only comment any of them has made on the reaction to 3.33. Rei is the most iconic and most popular character in the franchise and in Japan, and this drives them mad. Their new EVA works, notably 3.33, is their way of "evening the score".

That's why Kaworu has around 26 times more screentime and focus whilst being elevated to a "God Tier Looper" who knows everything.
That's why Asuka is rewritten to have her flaws removed, and becomes a super human with glowing eyes with tons of action scenes.
That's why Rei is severely downsized in terms of combat ability, split into two characters, deferred to as a clone doll, and portrayed as a pathetic existence no one cares about (but still obsess over).

Either 3.33 is a perfect microcosm representing how much Asuka, Kaworu and some Eva fans hate Rei, as well as Shinji for caring about her, or it's quite simply Anno and Tsurumaki taking advantage of their positions as writers to peddle their favorite characters.

At any rate, that's what went wrong with 3.33.
tl;dr: they focused on kaworu and asuka pandering to the point of ruining Rei's character in the story and dropping any attempt at creating quality characters.

This as well.

Brainlets couldn't handle timeskip.

Don't listen too this retard, he is just mad about waifus. Everything he wrote is willfull misinterpretation to justify his rei-faggotry. He writes the samething in every Eva thread.
