wow this was one of the shittiest movies ive seen last couple years. you tasteless fuckers actually like this pile of dick up your ass. story was stupid, choreography was ass and didnt make any sense (bay movie style?), the acting was trash (people acting like that chink chick could act good, she was ass and ugly, yellow fever fuckers), the action was boring as fuck. the movie in general was terible. i know you could always lower your standards and enjoy mediocre shit, but this is way and well below mediocre.
0.5/10
Naw.
well*
Your taste is suspect and this:
sounds like projecting.
It’s a movie about monsters and robots. Go watch an old Godzilla movie, and talk to me about acting and action, and we all like most of those movies. PR was great for the genre it is meant to be a part of. Does Nando still post here?
Somebody check this man for a pulse.
Getting a non-aerodynamic mech that weighs several hundred thousand tons off the ground and combating earth’s gravity is even more daunting imo. It’s not like Robotech/Macross where the mechs are a 100 times smaller and can transform into more aerodynamic/ maneuverable forms.
Space battles would be easier (although acceleration/ decceleration would take immense power (No Zone of the Ender’s blinding ninja-like movements here), but the Jaeger would have to be constructed in space piece by piece. Conventional rocketry couldn’t take these behemoths into space whole. I would take some real physics-bending to make a behemoth Jaeger beat the escape velocity of earth.
You sound like you had a bad day. Is there something you wish to tell the posters here?

Oh it would be hard to do, but they already ‘cheated’ physics with the sheer mass of the jaegers moving, so ‘to me’, making them fly (like the Kaiju that was flying WITH a jaeger) is less a ‘leap’ and more ‘just a step’. I mean just digging a little deeper, it was obvious with the 'Stralian jaeger being the newest and the fastest, that if interest was renewed and focused on after the success, something like flight, would be ‘in the cards’
booya, fuck ya’ll snipers on eBay, still won my auction bishes! Sorry, auction just won -Will
As it stands, there are NO jaegers left, so with the jaeger program’s success, I’d expect them to go ahead and build a few just in case and with newer tech. The irony of me joking about Voltron, is that logic with say
We’ve fought kaiju in the air and in water, we’ve fought thru emps as well, so it would make sense to create jaegers designed specifically for underwater fighting, aerial combat, emp/elec proof, etc. Which conceptually reminds me of the Voltron lions having specific strengths.

lol some asshole actually said this movie had too much talking and not enough action?
Is he banned yet?
There are a couple things that don’t quite add up to me. First the illustration thay she maps the the left side of the left pilot’s brain to the left side of the Jeager and the right to the right. Shouldn’t those be reversed?
Also the rate of kaiju appearance and the number of them that have supposedly shown up. They’ve been fighting Kaiju for like 12 years but they’ve only had Jeager for about 10. The rate of appearance in this movie is supposed to be higher than ever before. But, when you look at the kill count of some of the Jeagar dozens of Kaiju would have had to be coming through the breach on a pretty regular basis. Stacker said he ran 12 missions and he was piloting in the Mark 1 days. Striker Eureka is the newest Jeager but has the highest kill count. So just how many Kaiju were coming through and with what kind of regularity?
Shut up nerd.
Er, not quite. It’s sort of a misnomer with regards to ‘control of your body’. Also, its not exactly , my left - your right…the ‘neural handshake’s’ purpose is for ‘load’ - so don’t think of it as ‘control’ of the jaeger being based on left/right, think of it as the strain to control it is spread over that part of the brain.
And in terms of ‘count’ there is also something to be said of location…certain areas would see a higher concentration of the jaeger attacks.
My ‘assumption’ about this is that the rift is around the ‘middle’ of the Ring of Fire, which means Australia is the closest ‘continent’, and that the US WC would be #2…so the majority of attacks would go there…Mexico would be around #2 with Cali, and the Arctic would be #3. The counts/details spelled out for Russia and Asia should therefor be lower (which it sounded like it was). My point being, nothing says there was an even distribution of kaiju attacks. More evidence of that is that Australia had a wall up before anywhere else it seemed.

Never get tired of watching that, one of the best fights in the movie, too short though.
Now that you mention it, one of the most lacking areas in Pacific Rim is fights that take place during the day.

Should have checked out this thread earlier, Im going to watch the shit out of it this weekend.
I loved this article.
I agree, but I think the fights that are at night work best at night.
The Knifehead encounter wouldn’t be as cool in the day, something about Gipsy walking the whole night before coming to rest in the early morning on an Alaskan shore is really fucking awesome. And the Hong Kong fight wouldn’t be as cool without all of the city lights and bioluminescences on the Kaiju.
Man I really want to see a Mecha-Knifehead.
Someone with some talent get on that.
Also the glow-ey Kaiju parts wouldn’t be as cool at night.
edit: I mean’t as cool during the daytime
