Thanks, champ.
My body is ready, but I'm not sure if my eyes are.

The models for the Jaegers look nice.
It is going to suck, though; Yuke's will see to that.
Prometheus was so bad. It kinda hurt me to watch it. It's like Ridley Scott forgot what made of the cast of Alien work and tried to make a bunch of scientists into the cast of Alien. It would have worked so much better if he had just watched John Carpenter's The Thing.
And I still liked the movie. Can't explain why.
I shouldn't be surprised that the robot on that poster looks like a Transformer.
That's probably because they got the original versions from ILM themselves. They still managed to down-res them to terrible levels tho.
Indeed. I'm not even going to bother honestly. It'll be as crappy as the Iron Man games.

I'm pretty sure that's just the Iron Giant's evil form.
They're not even trying, are they?

They should have gotten the Kaiju Combat guys to do this game (ex Godzilla DAMM folks)
I seen a couple interviews witht eh guys behind the Asylum. They give no fucks and jsut have fun.
And not used that "canceling the Apocalypse" line in promoting the game.

Movie looks like a lot of fun and it's one of the few actions movies that actually has color opposed to the boring blue and grey tint/filter you see so much of today. My only issue is some of the effects look a bit like cutscenes from video games as opposed to the "higher end" budget Hollywood movies. The GIF below is one example.

That's like my favourite shot of the movie.

Trailer footage isn't necessarily final CG.
And bullshit, you wish video game cutscenes looked like that. You know how long they spent on upgrading the water simulation pipeline alone? ;P
This is what I'm worried about. I bought my ticket for a similar showing.
That print is so damn gorgeous, I neeeed it.

...what videogames have you been playing lately?
I'm tempted to do so as well... but if it turns out I don't like the film I'll be pissed at myself for wasting the money on it. :lol
You just brought on a giant wave of college nostalgia. I think that one production company had so many rip-offs.You mean Transmorphers

That music is the WORST. Whichever marketing bureau is behind the Pacific Rim campaign, I hope they get banned for life. Appaling job so far, especially with the tv spots.

I knew I was gonna to anger some people with that comment.
For the record, the movie mostly looks great. But that GIF is one example of a scene to me that looks on par with a cutscene in Halo 4. Specifically, the helicopters dropping the mechs in the water and that whole scene seeing them from the front. Also the part where you see the mech in the background dropping into the water when seeing them from the side. Once the scene shifts to when they're fully submerged underwater, it looks good.
It's just a nitpick. Movie still looks awesome all around.

The 3D was great particle effects and rain drops hitting the screen.
I thought Man of Steel destruction was crazy. Pacific Rim raise that bar.
Now I want Russian jaeger toy and pilot armors

Yes its awesome. There is a build up and some side story that was lacking from Man of Steel.
Its a summer movie expect lots of eye candy action.
EDIT: i wonder some times if this was an Evangelion movie but turned last minute

Yes, but he's very much playing against type. He's certainly not a dealbreaker if you're not a fan.

I probably would have also bought the Striker if they had it
He's the wildcard of the movie.
ScraftyDevil

They wouldn't have it because I would have already bought all of them.
It deeply saddens me that they don't sell Striker Eureka hats on the online store
I'll have to settle for a Gipsy Danger one.RatskyWatsky

You have bad eyesight or something. What you are saying does not match the gif you posted in the slightest.
