if you want to go there AVATAR was Dancing with Wolves just with blue aliens and space ships.
The plot was nothing like Top Gun. The whole idea was they built monsters to fight monsters---and that was NEVER shown to be necessary... ever. The jaegers got their asses kicked every time. It was only firepower that killed the monsters. The giant fighting machines served no purpose except to make a movie about giant robots. The mind meld stuff was ridiculous also. Their minds are connected but they have to tell each other out loud what to do. They have enough technology to build giant robots but not enough to have modern controls where they don't have to basically "row the boat".
It was garbage. The effects were ok though.
Btw I love Godzilla movies-- the ones with the man in the suit and miniature models, not that "we can do it better"cgi crap!
And trust me, I'm one of the few people who will never ever see Avatar!

I'd give Krissy a "pacific rim"
Re: Pacific Rim And The Wolverine
i have all the original godzilla movies :) mecha godzilla vs godzilla woop :)
I havnt seen either film but i guess they will be average CGI trash ...enjoyable for a few hours i will get them both on itunes when they come out in a few months ... now if you want big robots fighting etc .. and christian will probably appricate this if he remembers the movie ... "Robot Jox" they should reboot that with a decent story :) that was movie of epic proportions :) and is definately ripe for a reboot now the effects exist to make it so :)

Re: Pacific Rim And The Wolverine
I'm still trying to figure out how Pacific Rim was as good as it was. I thought the idea was over the top corny and it would be terrible, but here I am wanting to watch it again.
I know the one guy here is questioning why the robots were needed since a big ass plane could serve the same purpose, and probably better, but I think my enjoyment has to do with wanting to see the big guys throw down.
In the UFC, the little bitty guys put on more exciting fights, but the big lumbering heavyweights create the most excitement because of their ability deliver those huge, knockout blows. In Pacific Rim, there were definitely some thunderous blows delivered.
It was just a good time in the theater. I'm probably going to go out and see it again.
Ron Pearlman was funny in there too. We were like, "it's the Son's of Anarchy."
Re: Pacific Rim And The Wolverine
I agree with that---Pearlman was entertaining, as usual.

Just when I thought Liberty couldn't get any sexier, she goes and appeals to the major nerd in me. You had me at Robot Jox, Liberty. You had me at Robot Jox.
:Bowdown:
By the way, the best part of that preview is "I'm gonna get in this thing, and I'm gonna kick! your! ass!" LOL. I totaly wish Mystery Science Theater 3000 had gotten ahold of that movie.
Re: Pacific Rim And The Wolverine
Pacific Rim was a awesome move. It was Robot Jox vs Godzilla but a great movie no matter what.

I saw Wolverine last night. It was okay, but not great. Way too many dream sequences of Famke Janssen that made little sense. I wanted to fuck the redhead japanese girl the entire movie. so sexy.
Clan Wolf > Clan Jade Falcon
Although Legend of the Jade Phoenix was a good set of books. I always thought that Battletech would make an awesome movie if done right.

I remember watching the previews for that as a kid and praying it would be Battletech, and being a little let down.Still was an entertaining movie though. I wonder if Netflix has it...
