World dream

Although there is no connection, after watching this

movie, I look forward to Cameron's remake of [Gunmeng]. The fantasy background of the doomsday is really unsatisfactory. It is like the huge and untouchable Salem floating in the air 300 years after the end of the war. I can see the restoration with CG, I can only exclaim that it’s too cool,

but I can’t imagine that if all of this becomes a reality, we who are poor and powerless may have died a long time ago,

so I think this is a [world dream], cruel And beautiful, but never become real

Pacific Rim quotes

  • Raleigh Becket: This is worth fighting for. We don't have to just obey him.

    Mako Mori: It's not obedience, Mr. Becket; it's respect.

  • [first lines]

    Raleigh Becket: [narrating] When I was a kid, whenever I'd feel small or lonely, I'd look up at the stars. Wondered if there was life up there. Turns out I was looking in the wrong direction. When alien life entered our world, it was from deep beneath the Pacific Ocean. A fissure between two tectonic plates. A portal between dimensions. The Breach. I was fifteen when the first Kaiju made land in San Francisco.

    [pause]

    Raleigh Becket: By the time tanks, jets and missiles took it down, six days and 35 miles later, three cities were destroyed. Tens of thousands of lives were lost. We mourned our dead, memorialized the attack, and moved on. And then, only six months later, the second attack hit Manila.

    Newscaster: [on TV] The acid factor of the Kaiju blood creates a toxic phenomenon known as Kaiju Blue

    Raleigh Becket: Then the third one hit Cabo. And then the fourth. And then we learned this was not gonna stop. This was just the beginning. We needed a new weapon. The world came together, pooling it's resources and throwing aside old rivalries for the sake of the greater good. To fight monsters, we created monsters of our own. The Jaeger program was born.
