Sounds Like Comics Ep 275 - Pacific Rim (Movie 2013)

04/03/24 • 28 min

Directed by Guillermo del Toro, Pacific Rim is the science fiction monster film which is regarded as an homage to kaiju, mech, and anime media. Luke and Nathan return to the not-too-distant past to revisit this movie which is set in the not-too-distant future - the first in the Pacific Rim film franchise. To fight the Kaiju, mankind developed giant robots called Jaegers, designed to be piloted by two humans locked together in a neural bridge. However, even the Jaegers are not enough to defeat the Kaiju, and humanity is on the verge of defeat. Mankind's last hope now lies with a washed-up ex-pilot (Charlie Hunnam), an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi) and an old, obsolete Jaeger.
