Going to be honest though, I'm not liking the distinct lack of giant cannons and huge ass swords so far. I was really happy about that one scene, until I realized they were just swinging a oil tanker...

I'll be pleased as punch if this is like the anti-Darth Maul spoiler idiocy and they pull out some giant ass swords in the movie unexpectedly.

they have giant cannons....sorta. Now i cant check every trailer but there are scenes where you see couple jaeger open their chest with some sort of artillery battery/giant cannon....thing.

And as Homsar said, seems like only the australian one has something similar to swords

EDIT - nevermind. seems like the australian one has swords AND giant cannons

check minute 2:15 of this video

Australia has the uber Jaeger, there is a list of stats, which lists everything. US has the most kills/oldest? Australia is the most powerful, Russia is pretty much a tank, and Japan is the weakest haha. not sure if this is the right ones

Edit- my memory sucks

yes i know but didnt remember it had both. The american is the "strongest old mech". It's the only Mark-3 in the list infact. Japan, China and Russia are Mark-4. Austr is the only Mark-5 and pretty much OPed

and yes, the japanese being the weakest is a big fuck you to the country who invented the genre haha

the russia pilot is pretty hot btw

I posted it earlier but there could be an explanation like Japan never gets attacked thats why other countries have so much more kills where where the portal is

its not a matter of kill count tho, its also a matter of having the weakest stats. even weaker than Gypsy danger that should be outdated

EDIT - jeez. rereading this conversation make me feel even nerdier than the nerd i thought i was

Ya, the Japanese mech seems pretty weak sauce. Maybe at the end of the movie it will reveal that they had actually been saving all their resources for a Mark-6 model and it's basically a 200 foot tall ninja.

Or maybe jerking off to tentacle rape with mechs somehow magically DOESN'T make you great at building the real things....



edit: Well, I guess no reason to wait for this to release after all.

It's from Asylum, it's amockbuster. That's what they do. Here's your report "It's shit".

Everyone should do themselves a favor and google image search mockbuster. Some gold there.

I'm amused at how people think that Pacific rim will be great but Atlantic Rim will suck as if they were two different movies

I've got ratio to spare, and brain cells to kill. Downloading it now, I'll watch it, probably tomorrow night, but if not this weekend for sure.

It seems to me that those movies would do a lot better if they had abundant nudity, but alas.

But if japan isnt really getting attacked they could pretty much just use it to assist ect

The Japanese mech looks awesome.

But someone should make a Guillermo Del Toro meme with the troll hat "Designs protagonist mech to look like gunfighter, has no guns."

The Japanese constitution prohibits them from using giant mecha to fight Kaiju, unless it is for self-defense purposes only.
