OHH LESGOOO
that's what I was wanting from the film but obviously the movie can only give you so much due to time restrictions. A show is kinda perfect.

I feel like movies for this sort of thing is just to whet your apetite. A proof of concept that the makers can use to get funding for the actual bigger project they probably wanted to make in the first place., yknow what i mean?

Yeah, though usually movies like these come from established directors who very likely could get the money for any length series.

That’s what sequels are for, but we don’t talk about that here 0_0

Mostly that they made it just like any other action movie.

PR was unique in the way that the movie really made you feel the size and weight of the Jaegers and Kaiju.

When you watch the second movie and see a Jaeger do a jumping spinkick off of the side of a building, I can’t do anything else but look in disappointment. They turned something amazing they had into any other generic action flick -_-

ahh...that fucking sucks.
did the second film have the same director? How'd he massacre his own baby like that? That's so cruel

sucks to see an authentic thing turn the same as its generic counterpart, but at least we got a cool new tv show out of it before it went to shit! (i assume that's the timeline, anyway...PR1, tv show, then PR2)
