They actually USED the damn escape pods! Holy crap! Logic!

I can't remember why, precisely, but I seem to remember a reason why the Marshall and the Aussie didn't eject. Cherno Alpha didn't have escape pods, though and the Chinese Jaeger's head was crushed basically without warning, which killed the triplets instantly.

I have a blog. This is its URL. You should read it. It's about education and skepticism and books and it has a lot of pictures of Batman and Robin in it: https://baldermoon.wordpress.com/

I thought of that too but I realized it would have been pointless since the Nuclear blast probably would have disentegrated the escape pods.

HALE YEAH

Shonkier accent work than Django, but an absolutely fantastic movie. The difference with that is this was with real, trained actors, and Tarantino is a director. Ugh. But still, fantastic. So thick with tropes it was delicious. I could feel every beat of the movie. And the theme? Unf.

You know, that was a great article, and now I want this damn movie to hurry up and hit Blu-Ray so I can watch it and pick it apart.

It was interesting, but I wish it went more in detail.

Little late to the party, but finally got to see it in IMAX 3D last week. Holy crap, that's the loudest movie I've seen in a long time; I had cotton ears when I left the theatre. Really loved it though, loved the scope and size and scale of the whole spectacle.

Almost went and saw it on Friday, but my girlfriend wasn't feeling up to it. I believe we have it planned for Wednesday.

So who posted this link on Facebook? Indiana?

That was pretty awesome and although I kind of spoiled it for myself a bit, I'm pretty excited for this movie now.

Oh, guess I missed it the first time around because I was avoiding spoilers. Now I kinda wished I had continued to avoid them, I saw it last night and pretty much saw most of it coming, except for that mid-credits scene. :D

Anyway. Freakin' awesome. If some friends wanted to see it again, I wouldn't say no. Of course there are some plotholes/cheesy moments/necessary supension of disbelief, but overall, I loved it.

It would be sweet if it ever got a sequel. I was also thinking it would be really great to get the spinoff treatment, a la Animatrix. Maybe detail the war against the Kaiju up to this point, show us some of those other Jager teams and whatnot. Of course we know how it would have to end, but damn would it be epic.

Damn I keep putting off seeing it, but none of my friends want to see it. I will try to see this by Friday.... hopefully in 3D

Slight point of confusion:

Spoiler: Move your mouse over the container to reveal.

I was reading the Pacific Rim Wikia, and it states Mako was 13 when her family was killed and she was saved by Stacker Pentecost. WTF? That must be an error in the wikia. She looked like she was 10 AT MOST. It would've lessened the emotional impact of that scene by a lot if she was a young teen instead of a small child.

I'd say an error on the wiki's part, or an error in multimedia canon--I haven't read the prequel comic, but it might have something in there.

Yeah, maybe there was confusion in the making of the prequel comic and that's their source. Or maybe they're just bad at math or dates or something.
