You said "rim." Huh-huhuhuhuhuh-huh. Or is that reference too old for most of people on this board? ;P
I see a lot of people mention how most of this board is older dudes, I'd imagine the Beavis/Butthead reference was easily picked up!
huh? Don't get that at all. Everyone on this board collects toys. Some made in Japan some not. Who cares about labels? I think its quite comical to debate the merits of the word 'kaiju' or "sofubi'. My wife always jokingly says.."oh.....it looks like you got a new doll." I'm not about to get on a soapbox and defend what I collect and tell her.."no it's a 'kaiju'.
I'm gonna see it. It looks fun- and entertaining. People take things too seriously sometimes. Don't get me wrong- I too hope this doesn't increase the flood of money waving, gotta have it now or else collectors. But those ships have already sailed, haven't they.
I went to an early screening tonight and I loved it. Well balanced between the fights with the Jaegers and kaiju and the character developments. Neither was overly done. Graphics were amazing. There were cheesy parts, but I felt they were fitting to their situations without being face palm worthy.
Kaiju if its a boy, sofubi (sofie for short) if its a girl Theres a whole other Pacific Rim thread here on SB for general discussion not related to this "they cant use that word!" argument
It should be near the top of whatever section. Its not labeled Pac Rim but something like Guillermo Del Toros robot vs monsters film.
if just either one of you could make use of the search function, we would all be spared the melodrama of this "debate." 1) search before you post, and 2) if you're trying to point someone to an already existing thread, search for it, grab the link, and either pm or post it. i'd do it for you, but i'm too lazy
