whether or not you like pacific rim, you can’t deny it dropped some of the rawest fucking dialogue ever spoken in cinematic history
“fortune favours the brave”??? “numbers are the closest we get to the handwriting of god”??? “TODAY WE ARE CANCELLING THE APOCALYPSE”????? pacrim knew it was extra af and embraced it with open arms
That’s just how Guillermo Del Toro talks in regular conversation.

the part in pacific rim where the jaeger picks up a giant freighter and uses it as a baseball bat is the Greatest Moment in cinematic history
#pacific rim was too excited to hold back #’HERE LOOK AT WHAT WE MADE’
shout out to pacific rim for showing me what i paid to see
Guillermo del toro once again had my back
Guillermo del Toro’s last five films have been:
1. A dark fairy tale as a metaphor for the effects of war on children, set in the midst of the Spanish Civil War
2. A superhero movie that features a war between mankind and magical creatures
3. An action movie where the heroes have to share their minds and bond emotionally so they can punch aliens from the sea better. Also Charlie Day is a scientist.
4. Basically what would happen if all three Bronte sisters got hammered and wrote a book with Lord Byron.
and 5. An adorable woman falls in love with a fish man. Not a merman. A FISH MAN.No one in Hollywood is having more fun.
I know we’re always talking about how Pacific Rim embraces the ridiculousness of the human race because “just build a giant robot to punch them in the face” is probably the most full-on human bullshit response we could have thought of to an invasion of giant aliens, but can we pause and also consider that the aliens are basically doing the same thing
like they wanted to invade us and their first thought about how to do so was “let’s genetically engineer giant fucking monsters that will crawl out of the depths of the ocean and trample cities”
Pacific Rim is just the story of two species that on a scale from 1 to 10 respond to every problem with a 17
It makes me stupidly happy whenever I find out iconic lines like this are ad-libbed, because I feel like it helps demonstrate how thoughtful and invested the actors are are about their roles.
I love that Charlie calls himself a hotdog.
Listen, you are a brave girl. I was so lucky to have seen you grow. But if I’m going to do this, I need you to protect me. Can you do that?
“It’s really about trying to tell the story with something else than the screenplay and the dialogue. When you’re dealing with a genre movie and you’re working with types, you need to deal with them and tell the story in a very simplified and very effective manner. And I try to do it with design, gestures and colours. These things are the things that I lay down in every movie and I hope people notice that they’re there.” – Guillermo del Toro

PACIFIC RIM CUT SCENES WITH TOPLESS IDRIS ELBA?? YOU FUCKING MONSTERS.
I only vaguely know what Pacific Rim is, but I know exactly what a great tragedy this is
AGONY
#no no no #this is so important #because Raleigh has those scars too #they’re the only two pilots to ever ride a Jeager solo #and doing to burned the circuitry of their suits onto their skin #I think that’s part of mako’s staring at Raleigh shirtless #like part was obvs he’s hot as hell #but he’s the only one aside from her father to pilot a Jeager solo #and she must know about Stacker’s scars #so she’d be curious about Raleigh’s #sorry I’m having a lot of feelings right now
I am totally reblogging this for the important meta tags
