    I had no idea Guillermo Del Toro was asking 150 million for "Mountains of Madness" or that Tom Cruise was attached to the project. It seems like a story you could do for far less and that probably help make it more true to the book(Good point about District 9 Ralph). I was disappointed when the film was canned but would rather wait for a Tom Cruise free version.

    Back to Pacific Rim...My girlfriend and I saw it last week and had a blast. We both went in expecting a Giant Monsters Vs. Huge Robots and the film delivered just that. We both would like a sequel to happen but if this is all we get that's fine.

    Saw it this weekend and it's just another movie to support my opinion that GdT is vastly over-rated.

    Me too ! And judging from the overseas box office, it will happen. China gave it the highest grossing WB single day box office at 9 mil, and its done over $140 mil as of last weekend overseas, plus $80 mil domestic = sequel :D

    They've already discussed a sequel. The humans use the drift to tap deeper into the minds of kaiju and use them as weapons against other kaiju. Supposedly, of course.

    ^ Thanks for posting Michael ! I freaking love Guillermo. The look on his face in the store when he's holding all his boxes of toys is priceless. I think we can all relate :D

    ^ The Criterion version of Guillermo's film 'Cronos' has a mindblowing tour of his 'Bleak House'. Here's a snippet...

    I really liked Pacific Rim.
    Anybody go out and by the NECA toys?
    I'm looking forward to the 18" Gypsy Danger.
    I wonder how many Jaegers and Kaiju they will produce.
    So far there is Series 1 and 2.

    Anyway... good quality downloads of this have popped up over the past couple of days. I guess iTunes released it early or something? I'll be buying the DVD anyway so I don't feel bad talking about this haha.. Good viewing for this weekend!!
