MUST WATCH: New Trailer For PACIFIC RIM Will Drop Your Jaw!
I have to say that PACIFIC RIM has jumped ahead of every action movie I want to see this summer, including IRON MAN 3 and MAN OF STEEL. If you have any doubts yourself, check this trailer from WonderCon.
There are some visual spoilers in this thing so consider yourself warned. One Kaiju in particular is going to blow your mind, but don't take my word for it - have a look. If you dare ruin your theatrical experience that is!
Here's the storyline for the movie:
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.
PACIFIC RIM opens on July 12.
