Oh, I know that...that was pretty easy to realize.
But that didn't make any more enjoyable for me really, maybe because I was never into the things that it was throwing back to..??
It was just a bit too ridiculous for me. And it wasn't a "bad movie" IMO. I certainly didn't hate it and would see a sequel if there ever as one. I just didn't particularly like it a whole lot.

You should go into see Pacific Rim for one reason: to see giant mechs beat the shite out of giant monsters.
Rest assured, that's about all the expectations I had for it. I am very good at tempering my expectations going into a film, which is why I not disappointed too often. But this was one of the times that I felt something came up a little short after watching a film.

Meh, to each their own. I would have liked to have seen more fight scenes and more involvement with the other Jaegers but I was definitely impressed with the fight scenes we did get, the effects, and especially the way the action sequences were shot. Just a great visual ride, IMO.
To be honest, I don't really mind Battleship either. It's better than what I thought it would be, which is something I guess. Rihanna is an annoyance though. It's like some execs just said, let's put Rihanna in the movie...for, ugh...well for no fricking reason.
