Pacific Rim films

[Cal427eb]

This wasnt going to be that film xeno.

Del Toro was totally channeling the silly War of the Gargantuas rather than the somber super serious tones of Godzilla.

a kaiju gets a BOAT TO THE FACE.

This was never going to be a super serious film.

The super serious Godzilla comes out next year.. hopefully that'll be more to your liking.

Wait. Godzilla is supposed to be a movie I take seriously?

Have you seen the 1954 version?

The 2014 film is also going to be SUPER SERIOUS going by the director's and cast's comments.

As serious as the Nolan films where a guy puts on a bat suit and fights crime.

I also read interview where he pointed out that del toro didn't want to make a movie where scientists sit around a table and discuss radioactivity, he also mentioned that he wasn't a big scifi guy.

Urg I disliked Gareth Evans "Monsters" I get he feeling Godzillas going to be a lump of shit.

The 2014 film is also going to be SUPER SERIOUS and melancholic apparently. 

I bet half the score will consist of

Any movie with giant monsters(especially Godzilla), I will not be able to take seriously. The cheese level is off the charts.

Wait wait wait... Isnt Attack on Titan a "serious" take on giant monsters? (I havent seen it of course).

[Cal427eb]

I suppose so, but it's an anime. So, I leave most logic at the front door with that. 

[Blacklabel]

Okidokes. I recommend watching the 1954 Gojira. (the original version without the spliced in american character.)

See how you do with that.

I'll try it out. Just Godzilla himself, knowing it's obviously a man in a suit, is going to mess with my immersion.

Godzilla 2014 is CGI.

And the monsters in Pacific Rim are obviously cartoon CGI. So what.

They were designed around the fact that they were mo capped from a guy in a suit, del toro had said he still wanted that feel.
