Synopsis;

When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes-a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)-who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Hey its the guy from Prometheus looking like hes in Mass Effect in a Gundam movie?

**Hatedregret** · 2012-07-04 04:10

Voltron/Power Rangers/etc etc. Gimme great CG fights from giant robots. The fact it isn't Michael Bay is a plus.

**Jakson** · 2012-07-05 01:53

GDT should still make ATMOM, and put Elba in that too.

**BadKarma** · 2012-07-05 10:56

Charlie Day? Sold.

What accent will Idris have this time? I'm a fan of Del Toro's work, should be good.

Warner Bros. has pushed Guillermo del Toro to convert his epic looking robot vs. monster movie, Pacific Rim, to 3D. You might remember the director talking about why he didn't want to convert the movie to 3D at Comic-Con this year, saying,

I didn’t want to make the movie 3D because when you have things that big, the thing that happens naturally is you’re looking at two buildings at 300 feet. If you move, the buildings don’t go like this (moves his hands closer together), there’s no parallax. They’re so big that you barely notice anything no matter how fast you’re moving, so to force the 3D effect on robots and monsters that are supposed to be that high, you’re making them miniaturized, you’re making them human-scale. I knew that the 3D effect sounded like a great idea, but it was gonna be counter.

Warner Bros. obviously doesn't care what Del Toro thinks. After listening to his reasons as to why it won't work, I don't think it will be worth it to me to pay an extra $5 bucks to see it in 3D. The studio just wants to make as much money as they possibly can from the film, and seeing how popular 3D is with audiences these days, especially overseas, it's going to pay off for the studio.
