Not terribly interested in seeing another giant monster destroys cities movie, or another giant robot destroys cities movie. Not sure how I feel about this movie being both of those things. Maybe they'll pull a Godzilla on Monster Island and send both sets of giants to duke it out on some reserve or Planet X or whatever.

I'm expecting this to be either highly deconstructed emo weirdness like the back half of Eva or just a bunch of fanservicey explosions like the first few episodes of Eva. Either way, I hope it's going to be reminiscent of Eva.

Anyone else remember the story in the New Yorker about bootleg Chinese films that cobbled together disaster footage from real life and movies into crazy all-star cast supercuts?

ha yeah that reminds me of another old NYer story about the bootleg Chinese Harry Potter books which had gotten up to something like Book 16 and had Gandalf in them, Harry screwing Hermione, etc. I still wanna read those!

So I enjoyed this tons more than I expected. The visuals weren't as breath-taking as the first but the fight scenes were excellent and still did a great job of conveying the scale of the Kaiju/Jaegers. The plot was as b-movie as ever but goddamn did John Boyega make the most of his role.
**Spoilers** I was pumped to see the continued pilfering of Neon Genesis themes/visuals, even if PR is unwilling/unable to grapple with all the crazy shit NG gets into. The scene where the Kaiju brains take over the Jaeger drones were ripped straight from when Shinji went berserker and his Eva's inner angel started to break loose.
