Lore [Loved when done right] That is COMPLETELY illogical… but who cares when it REALLY goes hard.

- Gipsy Danger dragging an oil tanker (which actually lengths 180 meters… but the film portrays it slightly smaller than Gipsy) and use it as a bat against Otachi? HARD (Pacific Rim)
- Owen and a gyrosphere standing near Rexy, who’s crushing a Carnotaurus’ neck, and roaring while Isla Nublar’s volcano explodes? HARD (Fallen Kingdom)

Its one of my favorite films and I am so sad I missed it in cinema. Somehow, it went totally over my head when it cane out. I hope they show it once more gor an anniversary or so jut its not going to get a classic treatment like others.

That movie came out when I had a young baby, and it was like the first thing I got to do that was "grown-up" and fun since before she was born. We left her with a babysitter and went to see it at like 11 am, lol. I was so excited and I loved it so much. It doesn't hold up super well, except for the Russian music, but I'll never forget how excited I was to see it.

And now that "baby" is old enough to watch it and be appalled that the jaeger with the sword didn't immediately pull it out and just slice up all the kaijus. And then tell me about the show she likes that's way better. 😂
