I've waited for this trailer like a five year-old, bug-eyed, waiting for his pancake. But in frankness, I was afraid that mom would burn it; that Pacific Rim would look too cartoonish and nonsensical (Transformers, pick one, anyone?), and I was glad that nothing looks anything too bad. This marked more wait, but it would be worth it, I'm a strong believer.
The trailer that Warner Bros. released is attached below along with some new posters for the film.
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 and an untested trainee 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.
Starring Charlie Hunnam (Deadfall *read the review*), Idris Elba (Prometheus, Thor), Rinko Kikuchi (The Brothers Bloom), Charlie Day (Horrible Bosses), Ron Perlman (Hellboy) and more, the movie will open in 2D, 3D and IMAX theaters July 12 next year.
Directed by Pan's Labyrinth director Guillermo Del Toro (he's one to look up to if you delve filmmaking) and written by scribe Travis Beacham (Clash of the Titans)
