I'll go see it, but I expect this to be the big flop of the summer.

He took it rather than doing the Mountains of Madness so it better be good.

Why do they need 2 pilots?

Just continue the epic Gundam/Big-O ripoff/homage and have teenaged pilots whipping arse.

Why? If Del Toro always delivers then what's the problem? This will not be the biggest flop of the summer. Book it.

Holy crap, that looks awesome!

That's the kind of stuff I wanted to see with the Shogun Warriors back in the 70's!

This movie looks like an adult version of Power Rangers.

And...?

I think this movie will deliver and I don't expect a flop.

As for the story, who knows? Like many people said, del Toro delivers on his movies.

If he can make a decent movie out of Hellboy 2, I have no worries.

Plus, the mech hits the giant monster with a fricking ship. A frickING SHIP!!

As far as we know, it is not a set of giant robots forming together to form an even bigger giant robot, a la Voltron or Power Rangers, so I'm sticking with my Gundam reference.

I'd go more with Eureka Seven since their mechs required two pilots.

Scruff, I didn't imply judgment about the quality of the movie or box office sales.

Just the first thing I thought of was Power Ranger battles.

And the Power Rangers were fricking AWESOME!

Except for the Blue one. He was completely worthless.
