It's pretty good, Gus.  And Charlie Hunnam is a bad ass always.

Never seen any of the Transformer movies except for the 1986 animated film with the naughty words.

I get the feeling my daughters would enjoy Pacific Rim.

My kids love it. They've watched the DVD dozens of times.

I have nothing but praise for the first film. Despite the stereotypical plot -- the plot still does its job.
ICEBREAKER THESIS CHRONOLOGY! -- Victor Suvorov's Stalin Grand Strategy theory, in lots and lots of chronological order...
Dawn of Armageddon -- narrative AAR for Dawn of War: Soulstorm: Ultimate Apocalypse
Survive Harder! -- Two season narrative AAR, an Amazon Blood Bowl career.
PanzOrc Corpz Generals -- Fantasy Wars narrative AAR, half a combined campaign.
Khazâd du-bekâr! -- narrative dwarf AAR for LotR BfME2 RotWK campaign.
RobO Q Campaign Generator -- archived classic CMBB/CMAK tool!

It was a very fun movie. Nothing to think about too deeply, just good, cheesy sci-fi fun.

It was ridiculous, but it had giant robots punching giant space monsters in the face. That's the sort of ridiculous that I can get behind.

Giant Robot using oil tanker as a club to smash Giant Monster = Winning!

Moviebob and I have our differences, but we stand united on the important topic of Pacific Rim's value.



QuoteOh, oh, I'm sorry, are we feeling bad for ourselves? -- are we grappling with the moral greys of heroism? -- are we struggling with the proper use of our power in a complex world?

"Okay, how about this? BIG ASS MONSTER, RIGHT OVER THERE! GET OVER YOUR $#!T AND PUNCH IT IN THE FACE! PUNCH! IT! IN! THE! FACE!

I never even thought to watch this with the kids. Have to watch Gladiator first, then this.
