‘Monster’ Fun Behind the Scenes Look | PACIFIC RIM

Look, its pretty simple actually, if you haven’t heard of Pacific Rim yet, and if you don’t rate it second ONLY to Man of Steel in terms of this years most highly anticipated films, then you have a problem… But that’s why we are here 🙂

15 images from the set of the Monster vs Gigantic Robots geek-fest of a film directed by Guillermo del Toro have surfaced online. No doubt a marketing push 😉 We get a good look at the Director doing his thing; hugging people and other ‘stuff’ in a very ‘directorish’ way. Please, don’t just take our word for it,  behold:

Plot: “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.” Collider

Pacific Rim opens in Kenya July.  Get your senses ready, it will be one heck of a ride!
