pasisfic rim movie

Just went to this movie on friday night. I have to it was fragging asome to watch in 3d. I did really think zbout the but a lot of people have said the spundtrack rocked. The action rocked with gaint konji class robots besting the crap out of gaint monsters. Not a ton of plot to get in the way of the action whoch wss cool anf it was just enough to bridge the combat which was the hight point. I seen that nobody commented about this movie yet so I had to. It seems most movies of some type show fairlybquick on here.

How much did you have to drink this morning?

I saw it in IMAX 3D. Loved it. I usually avoid 3D movies at all costs, but this one was worth it.

Another Charlie Hunnam movie. I'm a fan despite the fact that I can't wrap my head around him being from the U.K.

The Ledge was surprisingly awesome and Deadfall was another good one.

It flopped domestically but it is an International hit however.

I liked it well enough. The fight scenes were really well done, no lens flare or shaky camera BS, you could actually tell what was going on. The plot was very standard, the characters were right off the Hollywood assembly line, and there were plot holes so huge you could walk though them in a Jeager, but if you turn your brain off and enjoy the visuals, it's fine. My 12 year old son loved it, of course.

Saw it opening day, very much enjoyed.

Where are the Fast & Furious style reviews complaining this action movie isnt realistic enough?

They've changed the type of 3d glasses that Cineplex Odion gives you to use with 3D movies (the physical glasses frame), they now work ONE BILLIOOOOOOOOOOOON times better when wearing your normal glasses.

I saw it in 2D. berkeley 3D. I'll never pay for it again. It makes the experience worse, not better.

Not drunk, no. That would not do this kind of fraggin asome damage to the English language. Not even a Pasisfic rim movie review.

Sorry but that is one hilarious post!

I saw it last night, and was a bit disappointed. The characters were stereotypical to the point of being cartoon-ish and the plot was predictable and boring. The special effects and the fight scenes were really good, but the movie didn't make me feel anything. Like, zero emotion. There was no suspense, no excitement, no twists, no surprises. I didn't think it would be possible for me to be bored while watching fighting robots, but I was.

Are you drunk or is your keyboard broken?

Saw it Sunday afternoon. It's a Godzilla movie. A good one, but still a Godzilla movie with lots of chrome plating.

I went into it expecting giant robots throwing down with Godzilla-scale monsters, and by and large it delivered on that expectation. My only complaint would be that there was too much of an attempt at making everything make sense and adding plot into it and that it dragged in the middle a good bit. Had it lost some of that and had another Jaeger/Kaiju fight (say, show us the fight that Miko heard in the 'rabbit hole' flashback...) I would have enjoyed it more. If you're going to have characters that are that cookie-cutter stereotypical, why bother with fleshing them out that much more beyond clearly establishing what archetype they are? Just get to the action and cheese it up.

The fights though were pretty good- especially the tag-team rumble in the bay outside the base. Was laughing my ass off at Gipsy Danger walking up to the Kaiju in the city dragging the tanker- One part of me (the engineer) is thinking, "OK, that ship would have fallen apart the moment they tried to pick it up, they're not designed for anything like that..." and the other is thinking, "Tanker-ship baseball bat to beat down a Kaiju... AWESOME!"

Sure, there were plot holes big enough to have a Jaeger/Kaiju fight in (you know where they Kaiju are coming from- why the BERK have you not mined the CRAP out of the surrounding area and put in place fixed heavy weapon platforms to annihilate anything that came through the gate?) and the engineering/physics had SO many issues- but it was a good, stupid action movie that I left the theater grinning about, so I'd call it worth the price of the GF and I seeing it.

Not to mention the idea that Gypsy Danger is an "analog" Jaeger. Yep, you could build something that big and complex without any computers, of course....

And the idea that you can build a wall all the way around the Pacific Ocean.

And that such a wall would work.

And that, with the fate of all humanity at stake, there are only about 5 people actually doing anything about the Kaiju.

And that the Jaegers always started every fight by punching and kicking the Kaiju instead of using the missiles, plasma cannons, and other distance weapons that they had.

Like I said, I enjoyed the spectacle, but the overall scenario was just a little too dumb for me to fully suspend my disbelief.

This is exactly what I was thinking in the first season of G1 transformers when Optimus Prime throws a Tanker @ Megatron.

No E36 M3. After the first scene that they had to wait to charge the plasma cannon, I thought it was incredibly stupid to walk into a fight without already having the cannon charged. And the one scene when they guy is like "Duh, we're out of weapons, duh." and the chick's like "Nu-uh, we've got a sword!". How did the dude that's piloted that thing a hundred times before forget that it had a sword? If I was a giant robot pilot, I sure as hell wouldn't forget about the sword.

Because she's Japanese and he isn't. He would have rememberd the Single Action Army revolver.

Very true.

I like how our avatars look WAY more surprised than anyone watching Pacific Rim.

I assumed that it was something that had been added when GD had been refitted and rebuilt after it was trashed in the fight at the beginning. But yeah- that they didn't START with the sword seemed pretty ridiculous and obviously just a plot device. Especially the freaking CHAINSAW SWORD they used in the last fight. Give one of those (or two...) to each of the other Jaegers, and the fight in the bay would have ended with all four Jaegers largely intact.

Try and imagine this thread having no clue what any of you are on about.

It sounds TERRIBLE

That's just not true. Chainsaw swords has my mental gears turning..

they can make this, but i'm still waiting for them to make a Voltron movie.. Robotech could also be awesome as a live action movie..
