It took the military 6 days to kill the first Kaiju and they still had to nuke it- Not exactly something you want to do to your cities on a regular basis.

Were they real that difficult to understand? I don't know, seemed like basic technobabble to me, very easy to follow, very easy to extract the necessary plot info from what they said when they said it.

i liked the characters. the characters in del toro's other movies are always way too melodramatic. but they worked here. charlie day was the least annoying ive ever seen him.

yeah, it would have been cool if one fight scene didnt take place at night in pissing rain.

so it lost to grown ups 2, but isnt it doing really well over seas?

i liked pacific rim way better than man of steel. but there were both flawed films.

BAD STORY TELLING.

I thought the fights were incredibly easy to follows unlike the much favoured fast editing and cutting of recent summer blockbusters. I also enjoyed Day and Burn Gorman even if they didn’t completely work they were a nice light aside from all the EPIC destruction. I can see where you’re coming from with your other criticisms but I don’t agree with them 100% it seems like nit-picking. I wanted a gorgeous looking film with giant robots smashing giant monsters, Pacific Rim did the job. The biggest disappointment is the current US Box Office Top Ten…Grown Ups 2…(yes I am being a snob).

– Why would they use pure iron and no alloys? Pure iron is absolutely useless?

– Why would they make on of the Jaegers analogue? Analogue has pretty much no benefits and do btw get affeted by that EMP pulse.

– On of the jaegers had dieselengines? Seriously? Diesel? No way any current or future diesel engine could ever produce enough torque to move these robots at that speed. I dont care about how much better engines are in 20 years time. No way they are going to produce that much power.

– No current material(alloy or not) could ever sustain as much force as these robots are put under when they fight and move quickly.

– Modern helicopters(even the most powerfull ones) can only lift a few tons of weight. No way those 5-6 helikopters could ever lift those robots, which must weigh thousands of tones. It just wont happen.

– The ship, which were used as a weapon, could never be picked up without breaking in half. The construction is designet to be in water or in a dry dock. It could never be picked up, without shatter to pieces. The construction just wont hold.

-As the writter of the article above, i wonder in which way the mind brdige thing helps the pilots? The robots arms and legs is controlled by the pilots's limbs and and the ekstra gear is controlled by buttons. Only the plasma cannon has no obvious "button", but that can be the only reason for all the mind sharing stuff?

– Why are they not controlling the Jeagers wirelessly? Seems like one of the biggest problems is that the pilots are getting batteret to death inside the Jeagers, so why not just control them wirelessly?
And dont say that the neural connection probably would be too much for w wireless connection. All the mind control stuff can be translated to simple commands to move a leg forward and so on. It is obviously possible to do.

– Why did the geeky professor guy(not the Kaiju loving one – the other one) need 10m2 of blackboards to create something which seemed very similar to a exponential mathematical function? Seriously, this is something that you learn at the age of 17 or something – Not something you need einstein to figure out…

– A nuclear reactor does NOT explode like a nuclear bomb, just because it melts down. It melts and there will probably be a smaller explosion, but not a 1,2 megaton explosion. Just look at Chernobyl. It did melt down, but it didnt really explode like a nuclear bomb. So blowing up that gypsi Jaeger would never work.
And to the guy who wrote the article above: blowing up any man made bomb(konventional, fission or fusion doesent matter) inside the core of the earth would have no impact at all. The forces inside the earth are so massive that it just wouldnt matter. But it is not the case anyway since this were an another dimension and (weird) stuff.

Overall this movie were just too much for me. I am okay with badass action fun, but this were just stupid. It is very clear that whoever wrote, ceated, produced, instructed(and so on) never had any idea of how the real world function.

It were fun, mainly because it were stupid… And great effects obviously. Thumps up for that.

Namely, it's pretty dumb to imply or think that Del Toro was ripping off Sharknado in any way, shape, or form… given the relative production complexities involved, Pacific Rim probably entered production BEFORE Sharknado, and they both got released around the same time.

Secondly, what's so hard to understand about The Breach? It's a DIMENSIONAL PORTAL, yo. The nuke didn't go of in 'the center of the Earth', and even if it did, the Earth is huge, and sees forces much more powerful than that on a regular basis (do you know how much energy was released when Krakatoa exploded? Mount St. Helens?).

Put your thinking caps on tighter next time, a lot of this stuff isn't THAT hard to get.
