I got, like, a glow stick you can wave around and be amused by, since that’s all it appears to take.
Pretty sure you have to have hand eye coordination and at least some semblance of stamina to be able to entertain someone in that manner. Both qualities you are incapable of ever possessing. Kinda like impulse control and good eating habits.
A brilliantly scathing flame, no doubt the byproduct of years of absorbing only the most compelling and worthwhile of fiction.
Neerp, just absorbing my vitamins and minerals from eating things like salad and fruit.
Perhaps you should give it a try. I hear certain plants are natural anti-depressants. Maybe eating enough of those will cure your chronic bitchitits.
way to aim high
I for one can’t wait to see them take something as badass as giant fucking robots and giant fucking monsters, then reduce them to repeatedly:

throw in a kill after that repeating gif, and u got a Pacific Rim movie 
No pleasing some people, which is why moviemakers don’t listen to lowest common denominators, they
appeal to them in the basest of ways.
Why are there still people in here bitching about the first movie? That’s not even what this thread is about, take that shit to the Pac Rim 1 thread, or the movie review thread.
Most of the people in here are just fans of semi-mindless violence on a grand scale.
Giant robots and giant monsters beating the shit out of each other.
We don’t give a fuck if the robots punch a lot, or if the plot was cheesy and stupid, that doesn’t deviate from what we want or what we got.
I don’t know why you people keep coming back to a thread about something you clearly dislike so much, but are still going to watch any way, do you want some kind of prize or something?
Why not be hype with us? Because you’re obviously going to see this movie, and if you aren’t, you’re just wasting your time in a thread about it.
Just be happy like the rest of us.
Because fuccbois don’t got anything better to do with their time when they don’t got dick in their assess.
Pacific Rim is movie I can do the whole enjoy it for what it is mantra.
The movie doesn’t try to be more than it is. Del Torro also doesn’t act supercilious and deride the intelligence of the audience…I’m referring to Michael Bay–the fucking king asshole in Hollywood at the present
Ah yes, the “please don’t post if you don’t agree with us” garbage.
Also, at everyone else: calm your fucking tits. All I said was that it was mediocre, on account of it being mediocre. I even said I’d probably watch the sequel (omg on-topic!).
^ Only one person was directly talking to and about you, what do you mean “everyone else”?
My posts have been about what needs to change going from PR1 to PR2, I see no reason why I can’t post here besides butthurt.
The first movie took giant monsters and kaiju and made it boring. They need to fix that or I don’t see a third movie getting free lit.
Keep in mind a new studio is working on this so obviously the first studio had similar thoughts.
@angelpalm did u really go THAT overboard on Specs over ur lack of reading ability? Got damn that’s sad.
What’s boring about this sort of thing:
?
Pretty sure you’re just saying that to be subversive. Come on.
I mean, that double hand clap made Leatherback go cross-eyed.
What more could you possibly want than this sort of quality? lol
This dude in here talking about fighting techniques and shit, don’t even know how to throw a proper punch. Get the fuck outta here with that shit chump. If you want to see mother fuckers in the “crane stance” karate kicking people then your ass needs to stick to Ralph Macchio movies.
LITERALLY LMFAO AT SPECS VS ANGELPALM
You keep saying that, but you really aren’t saying how.
You’re argument is kind of dumb when all you say is what’s wrong, without giving any kind of examples of what can be done to make it right.
You think they punch too much, what do you think they should do instead of punching that they haven’t already done? If you say kicks, that’s not really much of a drastic change.
And I mean within reason, because these are human modeled Mechs piloted by humans, they’re going to fight like people do, except with a few super weapons.
Literally EVERY fight was repeated punches to the monsters face, while the monster acted somewhat animalistic. Then when that didn’t work, they would suddenly pull out a random weapon, and use it to win. Why not start the fights off with this shit? I mean that Plasma Cannon killed everything it shot, why wasn’t each fight starting with that? Why didn’t humanity build tons of those cannons to keep Kaiju at bay? Why do you have a sword that requires no ammo, and can one shot kaiju and remove limbs instantly, but you forget you even have it?
My main problem with the movie, was they treated giant mechs as giant people, rather than mech’s. Watch any Gundam’s, MechaGodzilla, or any giant mechs in most movies/games/etc, and they have an arsenal of weapons. Which they sort of gave to the mechs in this movie, but they barely used them.
They could have just created a potion that makes people big, and it would have been the same thing to me. Giant people punching monsters in the face, then moving on to a real weapon when they realize how ineffectual that is.
besides the fact that the first THREE AND A HALF MINUTES of that clip are nothing but punches and occasional tossing/shoving/pushing?
Then he realizes that ain’t working, and uses a real weapon…why are you guys showing me clips of EXACTLY what I am arguing about, then saying I’m wrong. “oh noes, the fights are way more than what you say, you must be trolling” proceeds to upload clip of 5 minutes of punching
I’m not saying that the fights should be non stop weapons, or shit like that. But more variety. If I watched a WWE event, and a fight was just 5 minutes of punches, and then somebody uses their finisher and wins, I would want my money back.
If you want to punch, go ahead, but mix more shit up in there instead. Punch it a few times, throw it into a building, shoot it with some guns, toss some cars/buildings at it, punch it a few more times, etc. Keep me entertained. It’s giant fucking mechs. Trillions of dollars of research, design, and all that jazz, and the best we can come up with is 100 foot tall rockem sockem robots?
The vicious monsters that fight like actual monsters should instead fight like pro wrestlers.
If you watched a WWE event I guess you probably would also think this movie is a real life documentary and be hiding behind your curtains n shit.
PR isnt that far in the future, maybe the mechs power source cant use those weapons often and they need the kaiju weakened up a bit first, so like they dont just rip of the plasma cannon as it powers up lol.
In the other thread I actually said a lot of the points you made, IE get plasma weapons mounted on all the walls or covering the portal and call it a day, but as far as easy on the eyes popcorn action movie goes, this flick does the job :tup:
the monsters were somewhat done well, my issues were more with the boring ass Mech’s (all of which got pretty much instantly scrapped).
And to whoever said that CommieBot and ChineseCommieBot were still ok, you’re retarded. CommieBot got melted with acid, broke into pieces, flooded underwater, crushed, then blew up.
