I’ll be honest, the first trailers for Pacific Rim left me feeling cool. I don’t know why. On paper, it looks like a great movie: Guillermo del Toro directing giant robots fighting giant monsters? Starring Idris Elba? What’s not to love? Yet, the trailers made it look like another Transformers movie. But all that changed with the latest trailer. This is Transformers done right. Transformers as it should have been. Check it out.
I’ll be looking forward to this one with a big bucket of popcorn, eager to let my inner 12-year old out for a couple hours of fun.
