Even in fantasy there is mechs. ...What? You gonna tell me that there is no Artificer, Wizard or Druid that never thought of building a golem and then pilot it from inside? Give it a big fuck-off sword or a siege weapon like a ballista and you have a mech.
"Go to Church" or better yet, let the Church come to You! Well the Veteran Crews getting crushed is apparently Charlie's fault as well. Aliens learnt not just the location but how Jaegers work and it allowed them to tailor their weapons to fight them.
I actually liked the begining of the movie with Becket, the thing of him piloting the Jaeger by himself after his brother gets eaten while having all his brothers feelings and thoughts from when he was being devoured stuck in his mind because their minds were still linked and then the sudden nothingness was very interesting. Mako being able to feel it too when Becket drifts with her was a great moment
I may not like Legend of Korra, but I can at least agree that it gets a bit too much hate. It has a lot of good ideas, it just doesn't execute them all particularly well in my eyes. Most of Book 2 was a mistake, especially that finale...
While I do disagree with you that Korra didn't execute its ideas well. Season 2 is my least favorite season, though I do want them to explore the dark avatar more in the future series.
The lore breaking shit book 2 of Korra did and its ending destryoed the whole Avatar lore and worldbuilding for me, i consider it non canon and i always skip this book while doing rewatches, shits ass
I thought it was terrible because it goes against the messages the original series taught us. It's almost the polar opposite of Avatar: The Last Airbender.
@@sebastiansuazo2734 The execution wasn't bad in my opinion though. Korra expanded the Avatar world a lot. I enjoyed how the spirit world was incorporated into the wider narrative.
Pacific Rim was so good that it was one of the few movies I watched twice in theaters. Both its story and characters may not be all that deep or unique compared to past mecha anime, but what it does have is heart and soul. I could tell because being a mecha fan myself, I'm smiling every time I watch it. It is a shame that Del Toro had to cut out stuff that could have made the other mechas and their pilots a bit more interesting, but at the end of the day, the movie was still a ton of fun.
As someone who watched Pacific Rim: The Black when it aired on Netflix for two seasons, it's a great watch. Enjoyable but simple plot that isn't nonsensical., likeable and decently well written characters characters, takes concepts from the sequel-that-shall-not-be-named and properly uses them, and introduces new concepts I think were a bit underutilized. Ending has a bit of an enigma, since I've seen thought out theories that question the truth of how real it is. Won't spoil anything, but the cast gets into a REAL dire situation, and something a few episodes prior may make the audience wonder if the seen can be believed.
It's funny to me how pretty much everyone agrees without any sort of coordination that the sequel doesn't exist, as if trying to collectively wish it out of reality LOL
Different dirrector, and one that obviously didn't have the same love of mecha anime that Del Toro had. If they have any sense, they will make sure he directs any future ones they try.
@@seki108 bro Steven had a love for mecha anime, he just didn't make his film in the same way del Toro did his own. Del Toro doesn't need to be attached to every project. They just need the right people in charge. It's like saying Honda needs to direct every godzilla film cause he was the first director
@@Kaiju-bm4ts Genuinely have no idea about Steven since I haven't seen much else like interviews about his inspiration or the like, which Del Toro had and it was passed around the mecha communities. My last sentence was more about the common consensus about the second movie compared to the first, since it doesn't really matter the director as long as the end product is good. Just del Toro would likely be the more sure shot for the future planned move to be good, but it's not like he's the ONLY one who could make it work..
The next time a Tarrasque acts as an endgame threat in your DnD game, have your party awaken the royal castle as it slowly turns into a giant mecha. Like Metroplex from Fall of Cybertron.
Granted considering how the general vibe of the Earth Empire vs everyone else kind of gave off another bit of that World War 2 asthetic it would make sense that the Earth Empire would have just as many crazy ideas as the Nazis but instead of being unable to accomplishing the realization of those ideas they would be able to bring them to life. Not to mention that the mech was able to move because of metal bending which is actually quite clever for that setting. Not to mention Season 1 literally introduced Mecha Tanks, I think we are passed the point of complaining for the technological advancement of this world. Considering the Fire Nation invented tanks, Zeppelins (at least through re-engineering and improving the original design), and battlecruisers, while everyone else was still using swords, shields, sailboats, and warbeasts.
I still remember this one episode of Game Grumps, where Arin and I think it was Danny, were promoting this voting poll to get a sound effect for one of the mech's weapons. I voted for the one that reminded me of Ramiel's laser beam.
12:02 To be fair, war progresses technology by a crap ton. I still think it should've been a little bit later but don't underestimate how technology changes during wars.
To be fair, if anyone else tried "my mech is so fucking awesome and driven by the pure willpower and emotions of my friends that I'm standing on these galaxies to fight Anti-God" BESIDES motherfucking Studio Trigger, people would laugh them off the stage. But when they do it in Gurren Lagann, THAT SHIT IS BALLER!
The funniest thing to me is that I don't like mechs all that much, (I'm not into Mecha anime or anything like that I just find it boring) but I do love the mech in Korra. I find it amusing that I'm the polar opposite of most meca fans in terms of taste. I did enjoy the Pacific Rim franchise though even the movie that didn't exist.
The kaiju attacks started in 2013. So it was supposed to be present day and an AU. So it getting really bad too soon isn’t really that far fetched in a setting where it’s been going on for nearly a decade
I can never forgive this movie for basically saying "Bee Tee Dubs, Dinosaurs. Lol. Anyway..." And then never revisiting that sentence. Apparently there's some sort of novelisation definitively says they're kaiju prototypes, but as a movie goer you can interpret what was said as "They extincted the big, tall, fleshy proto-jaegars" like, wtf is going on, those are TWO, VERY, different, VERY, important implications for what is less than a second of dialogue. I know this is some nerd shit to get hung up on, but Del Toro knew going in that we nerds were going to be his core audience. Heck, he's supposed to be one of us.
If you want to do a reaction for the "sequel" next, then you're not alone, Jack. We'll tag along with you on that abomination. Gonna be a rough ride on that one though
3:10 I actually wish they had focused more on it. Showing more destruction and her madness. Maybe because it is a children's show they limited what could had easily spend at least 4 more episodes.
ok i have homework for you, watch Charlie Hunnam and Elijah Wood in "Green Street" from 2005. when people talk about charlie hunnam movies they never talk about this underrated masterpiece
We need more live action mecha/robot movies that can actually deliver the hype that surround it. Pacific Rim and Transformers 1 are perfect examples alongside the Iron Man Trilogy. If the live action Warhammer actually comes to fruition, I really hope that it can be on par with the animations.
I just wanna say, i love your videos, and would just wanna talk with you about hoyo and just the experiences we made and just idk maybe give you so.e more ideas 🎉. I enjoy your content and camt wait for more
Ngl I didn't hate the sequel. John Boyega was absolutely a highlight TBF but it felt like one of those "so bad it's good" movies almost. There's enough little nuggets of good dialogue and interesting concepts that I can ignore the execution being shoddy and just have fun.
Cinema in a nutshell. 1st Film: do it right, profit 2nd Film: CG make it cheaper profit more 3rd Film: F*ck the fans,cheapest CGI possible, cheapest writhers possible Dubble the ticket price and add a commercial break in the middle of the movie to profit more.
I actually induced a coughing fit at how much Zilla 2014 WASTED the run time when you mentioned it WHY. WHY DO THESE PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK WE GIVE A DAMN ABOUT THE HUMANS? Hell, make a 30 minute movie with the best CGI monster fights for the whole thing and I guarantee an instant cult classic, so WHY? WHY?!
Akshually 🤓 the Chinese and Russian Jeagers got clapped so hard only because of the connection with kaiju the nerd guy did. Thx to that aliens had all the info on the designs of the Jeagers stationed at the base so they designed hand crafted made kaijus to hard counter them.
I got confused there for a second when you started to talk about the "universe of Cyberpunk" since it's a whole genre. Honestly makes me a bit a annoyed that the game and table top are titled that way.
And the Live Action Gundam is still in development hell probably because the author and creator Tomino is still alive, and for the current social climate the amount of "War Crimes" In Gundam alone (Not adding the other series) is way too much for the general audience
Pacific Rim, Transformers, Iron Man, and Real Steel? Robot movies were goated years ago
Even in fantasy there is mechs.
...What? You gonna tell me that there is no Artificer, Wizard or Druid that never thought of building a golem and then pilot it from inside? Give it a big fuck-off sword or a siege weapon like a ballista and you have a mech.
An anime I grew up with called Vision of Escaflowne kind of does that. Except they take the Eragon approach, using dragon hearts to power some mechs
@@TheChillzoneXI have dance of curse stuck in my head from that
I think the only other fantasy mech I can think of is dunbine
I mean the titans have been called flesh mechs
Would that anime about girls piloting dragons that turn into Jets and Planes counts as a mech anime?
"Go to Church" or better yet, let the Church come to You!

In Imperial 40k, the church goes to you.

@@Psycorde what sequel?
@Psycorde are you alright? Talking about imaginary things...
Pacific Rim was peak,but i saw one day on TV there's a so called sequel of it that was playing. I really doubt it was a sequel

26:27 Brazilian bossa nova jumpscare
For anyone wondering the music is - É assim mesmo - Clara mendes
Tudo fica melhor com Bossa Nova
Pacific rim THE MUSIC IS JUST SOO PERFECT IN THAT FILM
The next time a Tarrasque acts as an endgame threat in your DnD game, have your party awaken the royal castle as it slowly turns into a giant mecha. Like Metroplex from Fall of Cybertron.

Pacific Rim got me into the Mecha genre without me even knowing. What a gem.
Oh yeah I've been waiting for this reaction for over 1000 years let's goo it finally here!
"Sequel? What are you talking about? let's go watch Pacific Rim in theatre"
Fun fact: at 9:27 those weren't galaxies they where universes, so yeah gurren lagann's biggest mech dwarves universes
fine, ill rewatch pacific rim
Everyone gangsta until the trollolol song starts playing
Pacific Rim was the best movie I've seen in a theater, so epic
What made it even worse for Raleigh is because he and his brother were still connected he felt him die...literally felt him die. that can mess you up
Cody being a total Mecha nerd is so amazing
Didnt expect to her the Philippine National Anthem on a reaction vid.
12:02 To be fair, war progresses technology by a crap ton. I still think it should've been a little bit later but don't underestimate how technology changes during wars.

If it was just a little bit more mainstream, BattleTech could thrive as a Netflix series.

Can't wait for you to see his uprising video
Elba dude (i have zero clue how to spell his name) “remember the game is fixed” P.S i love cyberpunk plz don’t take this as me hating.
Funniest thing about 2nd movie is the reason why Raleigh isnt in it.

Warhammer mechs will always be my favorite. Doesn’t even feel right calling them mechs, they’re too holy for that
ok i have homework for you, watch Charlie Hunnam and Elijah Wood in "Green Street" from 2005.

What was that one Keanue Reeves scene (12:35) from?
It's from the Armored Core episode in Secret Level
@fabulous55641 thanks. i really need to get around to watching that series.
Cody plays Battletech
*Visible Happiness*
Not Shia Labeouf. Tom Holland, for sure 😂
4:09 this Jaegers design look like an ac (armored core)
Wish they would've shown tacit ronin more
I just wanna say, i love your videos, and would just wanna talk with you about hoyo and just the experiences we made and just idk maybe give you so.e more ideas 🎉. I enjoy your content and camt wait for more
4:16 Could you please stop sharing the same braincell as me? Kinda need it to work tomorrow, thanks!
Oi broder. You should react to Warhammer 4k Secret level. You know, for The God-Emperor and all that. ( It's really good.)
must've sucked to live in Hong Kong in both Pacific Rim and Godzilla movies lmao
Whenever the theme song play it always peak!
Also Pacific Rim does not has any hollywood sequel.
Ngl I didn't hate the sequel. John Boyega was absolutely a highlight TBF but it felt like one of those "so bad it's good" movies almost. There's enough little nuggets of good dialogue and interesting concepts that I can ignore the execution being shoddy and just have fun.
9:00 best part
I want to see a war hammer titanicus movie in my life time.
Pacific Rim is a good movie indeed, I'm glad they didn't made a sequel of that because why would they? Right?
Cinema in a nutshell.
1st Film: do it right, profit
2nd Film: CG make it cheaper profit more
3rd Film: F*ck the fans,cheapest CGI possible, cheapest writhers possible
Dubble the ticket price and add a commercial break in the middle of the movie to profit more.
I saw what I think was the Dies Irae and clicked on it but stayed because giant robots
If you haven’t you could reaction to the Pacific Rim video made by the channel CGY
Shinji should obviously be played by Michael Cera
I actually induced a coughing fit at how much Zilla 2014 WASTED the run time when you mentioned it
WHY. WHY DO THESE PEOPLE SEEM TO THINK WE GIVE A DAMN ABOUT THE HUMANS? Hell, make a 30 minute movie with the best CGI monster fights for the whole thing and I guarantee an instant cult classic, so WHY? WHY?!
Damn, what is this song in 9:03?
U should watch his monsterverse reviews
Could you please do a goji center reaction
OK
Akshually 🤓 the Chinese and Russian Jeagers got clapped so hard only because of the connection with kaiju the nerd guy did. Thx to that aliens had all the info on the designs of the Jeagers stationed at the base so they designed hand crafted made kaijus to hard counter them.
👍🏻👍🏻

Please react to codys tranformers the movie
13 seconds
I actually like Pacific Rim 2!
I am so sorry to hear that (I also liked it)
What the heck is pacific rim 2?
What is this pacific rim 2 you speak of?
vamos a ofrecerlo en sacrificio
Take the meds man there is no Pacific rim 2.
We got Biden instead of giant Kaiju. I'd have rather gotten the fucking Kaiju honestly.
Also covid but yknow minor details
