‘PACIFIC RIM’ Trailer is Online

One of my most anticipated films next year has to be Guillermo Del Toro’s Pacific Rim. I just cannot wait to see huge robots fight big monsters in 3D. I plan on seeing this in the biggest theater screen possible as I feel like a normal one will just be inadequate. While part of me worries that Del Toro has a lot riding on this one and the fact that a lot of his big budget forays haven’t done him much good, I really think this one will do just well. It seems like Del Toro and Legendary have a great partnership and they understand each other. Enough of me carrying on, check out the trailer below.

We linked to the UK trailer as it is easily embeddable but the same trailer can be found for the US on the Apple Trailer website. July 12th, 2013, I am counting down the days.

Synopsis

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.
