The official trailer for Guillermo Del Toro’s Pacific Rim has been released and it’s full of geektastic scenes.
It is a bit strange hearing Charlie Hunnam narrate the trailer, if you’re a fan of Sons of Anarchy you’ll know what I mean, but the visual look strong even if the CGI is just a tad suspect.
Having Idris Elba close out the trailer with a great rallying speech was a wonderful choice.
I’m a big Del Toro fan to begin with and this looks like he’s just going to be having a great time delivering a monster movie he wants to make….
Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro teams up with Legendary Pictures to bring audiences a unique take on the monster film with this sci-fi production. Charlie Hunnam (Sons of Anarchy) stars as a washed out pilot of a series of robots called Jaegers, which are put into production when Earth invaded by a species of giant monsters, the Kaijus. The Brothers Bloom's Rinko Kikuchi co-stars as a trainee whom Hunnam is psychically paired with in order to pilot the last beacon of hope - a decommisioned Jaeger aimed to stop the Kaijus once and for all. Thor's Idris Elba leads the rest of the starring cast, which includes Charlie Day. Rob Kazinsky and Ron Perlman. ~ Jeremy Wheeler, Rovi

OMG, my fave biker is going ultra badass in this one. This looks incredible!
ReplyDeleteIt does! I really like everyone involved so I can't wait!
DeleteI loved Hellboy 1 & 2 and Pan's Labyrinth.
ReplyDeleteNot sure about this one. Looks kind of similar to Transformers and a little bit generic overall..
Still hoping that Guillermo gets his first big bonafide blockbuster hit. He deserves it!
Same here, I've been a big fan of Guillermo for a long time. Considering the director I don't think we'll have to worry about Transformer Bay level of nonsense.
DeleteI think this will be his big hit!
Looks like RobotJox vs Gamera, or something like that LOL
ReplyDeleteInteresting and entertaining trailer, could be a nice funfest!
That's what I'm expecting, a really fun film!
