PACIFIC RIM 2

lol fuck no. That movie was Epidemicā€™s wet dreamā€¦just CGI mechā€™s that all looked pretty human, punching random kaijuā€™s that looked like animals in the face. Round one, punch a gorilla. Round two, punch a bear. Round three, punch a crocodile. Round four, punch a bat. Round five, punch some fish.

Are you talking to me?

I didnā€™t say it wasnā€™t boxing-like, I didnā€™t even mention boxing in my post.

I just said Godzilla was slower, and that giant robots shouldnā€™t be going super fast because it would be stupid.

Also, having the robots bust out the god-mode swords would be lame for the same reason letting Godzilla use his Atomic breath uninterrupted and early in fights is/would be lame.

It removes the entertaining back and forth of the fight, it turns it into a boring stomp instead of a legit brawl.

And take advantage like how? Give us some brilliant ideas that donā€™t involve them punching each other really hard or using swords for everything.

Iā€™m trying to imagine what you expected to see when it was clearly presented to everyone exactly what the movie was going to be before it was even released.

How hard can someone miss the message of a movie?
Since you did this so bad

Iā€™ll break it down a bit.

The few fighting, supporting, and if necessary, dying so that the many would live.
Every time a 2-pilot Jaeger ended the life of a Kaiju, thousands of people were kept safe.

This was more than about the fights, it was about WHY they were fighting.
As Pentecost said, for each other.

If you could step into a Jaeger and keep those you cared for safe by putting your life on the line
would you do it?

Think about it.

explain to me why u need two pilots to control a mech that mainly just punches shit in the face until its weak enough to FINISH HIM?

How can it be boxing when the mechs are all about elbox drops, hip tosses and stupidly short range long range weaponary?

actually now i think about it, not 1 jab was thrown in the whole film :rofl:

I dunno how a guy who fucks stuff the size of Kaiju can complain about the movie being too slow, itā€™s right up his alley.

Because one pilot alone is not enough; the first Jaegerā€™s pilot(a single pilot type) died from the neurological stress in seconds after turning it on.

That happened in the prequel comics.
The more you know!

Loved the first movie, was it perfect no, but damn if it wasnā€™t entertaining and probably the best western based representation of Kaiju film ever.

Godzilla (2014) was good, probably more entertaining then it had any right to be, but Pacific Rim brought the goods in what I wanted to see, giant monsters getting torn the fuck up and destroying shit.

Not too jazzed about a potential animated show unless it is as good or better then the animated Hellboy movie Blood and Iron they did a few years back at least, but I would actually pay to see the sequel in 3D IMAX that first weekend.

Literally the first 5 minutes explained this.

Again, you donā€™t have to like the movie, but itā€™s not bad because you didnā€™t listen.

And that isnā€™t to say there arenā€™t bad parts maybe, just that you canā€™t judge it as bad when you didnā€™t even listen to it.

wait how they gonna do a sequel when all the mechs are destroyed and the alien dimension has been nuked? I totally forgot about that

The nuke closed the portal, not the whole dimension.

They can just build more.

The sequel can be set at literally any time.

Thereā€™s even been talk that maybe the roles would be reversed. Consider that the Gipsy Danger was left in the other dimension, and even though it blew up, itā€™s not like thereā€™s no chance of parts of it surviving.

Thereā€™s lots of directions it could be taken

I think if they were smart theyā€™d ditch the Kaiju dimension for this next movie and take it to Space or something like that.

An instant ā€œNope, turns out it didnā€™t workā€ would be kind of lame, iā€™d rather it be a surprise in the third movie, if there is a third movie.

Striker and Gypsy are out of the picture, but Crimson Typhoon(in the Hong Kong Bay, missing itā€™s head and one of the small saw hands) and Cherno Alpha(lying at the bottom of the Hong Kong Bay as well, got messed up a bit/armor got rocked a bit, dat acid, still about 60-70% undamaged though, RUSSIA MAKES YOU STRONG) are still mostly intact.

Movie in the limelight for the repaired versions?!

Itā€™s a movie bro. Relationships happen when they make eye contact or accidentally touch.

I know WHY they used two people in the mechs. Iā€™m not that dumb. However I do wonder what that triplet was doing, consider two pilots controlled two different brain hemispheres.

What I meant was they could have just automated the mechs, and let them do the punching.

Cuz 99% of the time, all they did was punch. Even that one rocket punch was slow as fuck. Was there even one mech kick in that movie?

No kick, but there was an elbow drop, a monster toss, a headlock, sword bisection, saw blade chops, boat bat swing to the face, tongue ripping, a rocket punch, plasma projectiles, and a robo-judo throw amongst other little things I canā€™t remember, but mostly punching.

Then the monsters had their own shit that I donā€™t feel like trying to remember or search for to list out.

When you have robots built to resemble humans(somewhat) with arms and legs and shit, punching things really hard until theyā€™re weak enough to kill seems like a logical course of action.

Especially when they made it a point to show that the monsters could tell when the robots were pulling out their big guns, as the gorilla looking motherfucker used an EMP to stop the Australia-bot from using itā€™s anti-kaiju missiles, the flying one used its tail to kill the chinese robot before it could use itā€™s big hand to kill it from behind, Cherno got acid blasted before it could activate itā€™s big weapon, and knife head stabbed Gypsie through the arm to prevent it from shooting itā€™s plasma gun. The Kaiju in the water were also doing that bullshit, to the point of the big one personally trying to intercept the nuke carrying robot. The only reason they cut the flying one in half was because it wasnā€™t looking down at them while it was flying. Multiple times where the heroes try to pull out their crazy shit only to be shot down before activating it.

The monsters could tell when the big guns were coming out, because there was a lull in the punches they were receiving to the face

Sovi3t workin real hard right now.
