Pacific Rim 2 Shelved Indefinetly

>>78776920
One was plenty. Be glad it got made at all.

Don't care, make Hellboy 3 already.

still waiting on a saturday morning cartoon

We still have the series

Well, at least we got Godzilla Resurgence this year, that new Kong movie, Godzilla 2 in 2018 and, hopefully, the Versus flick sometime after.

Man, life as Del Toro sucks recently.

Silent Hills, Justice League Dark, movie studio wanting Mountains of Madness to be PG-13, now this.

Also, none of your movies making back budget.

>>78776920

Maybe they'll throw us a bone and greenlight Pacfic Rim animated shorts by different anime studios like the Animatrix or Halo Legends.

>>78777175
Do we? Shelving 2 might have shelved the series as it lead to 2.

Good to see Universal is wisely investing their money in movies I don't want to see. I've got to keep that streak going you know.

>>78777321
I give absolutely ZERO shits about anything related to that last fiasco of a western Godzilla flick, it was a shameful lie they paraded as a Godzilla film.

Didn't Legendary get bought out by Chinese? Pacific Rim was made by Legendary. Japs and Chinks love robots and monsters, so there's a chance. Also Warcraft, which is being made by Legendary. So you know that's getting a sequel regardless.

I don't know, I kind of like it. Actually looks like he's suffering from radiation crossed with the original '54 Godzilla.

>>78777761
Yeah, I suppose.

That's what happens when you take a script about some terrorists stealing nuclear materials to make bombs and insert Godzilla into it I guess.

These are confirmed leaks of the new Godzilla. TOHO came forward and said it's real.

>>78778194
OHh okay, I misunderstood and thought someone was bashing the new cgi godzilla, praising heisei, and claiming THAT thing was heisei
well i'm surprised and pleased to see japan is still doing puppet movies.. even if.. wow that is ugly.. but yeah I guess he's just healing? kind of a Rocky sort of a comeback movie?

No, I was saying this is 2016 Godzilla and my favorite (Heisei) was over 20 years ago and still looked infinity better than this one.

Fuck you, if you're going to play it play it fucking right on the Neo-Geo.

>>78778383
Then play some War of the Monsters on PS2 (it had some emulation problems last I tried it, maybe it works fine now though)

>>78778434
Then play on Mame, but yeah I forgot it was on that. I mostly remember it on SNES from when I played as a kid.

It did well at the box office and is getting two sequels, one with Rodan, Mothra and Ghidorah and one with Kong.

>>78776920
Hasn't this already been indefinitely shelved twice already?


It's upsetting either way though, I had hopes for the animated series they were planning.

>>78777760

Clearly you don't get what they're going for.

My guess is that "shin" Godzilla is actually the original skeletonized Godzilla and he has slowly been healing from a skeleton, hence why he looks so emaciated and much more mutated.

Jesus motherfucking christ.

Poor del Taco. Guy can't catch a fucking break.

>>78778992
Shut up, Boco.

Fuck I really wanted a second. I know it was bad, but the concept alone is what makes it worth watching.

I think they went overboard with the whole "he's a fucking nuclear abomination" angle. GMK Goji is scarier than this thing. It looks like a kid shoved toothpicks in a green and red Play-Do ball. The only good thing I like about this Godzilla is the long neck.

Was anyone else diappointed that the reveal of the baby kaiju didn't lead to any new development?
I was expecting it to be free of the alien control, or to see that scientist guy as its mother, or reveal that the kaiju are more than canon fodder, or anything.
Instead it just tried to kill the guy but died by accident. It's only kill is undone in the mid credits sequence. And it conveniently offers a brain for the scientist to use, but I wonder why the movie couldn't just say that the mother's survived.
Similarly, during the bunker part I was expecting Otachi to actually want to protect the guy after connecting with him.

My biggest if not only problem with Pacific Rim was that the kaiju had no presence after they turn out to be canon fodder created by some evil aliens. I was hoping the sequel or the tv series would put more effort into them beyond their designs, to make them individuals and morally grey as imo kaiju are supposed to be.

Guess my only hope now are the comics.

But seriously, who doesn't want stories were baby otachi and scientist nerd have a relationship like Zilla jr. and Tatopoulos in that Godzilla animated series?

I'm glad. I honestly didn't like the film. The actions sequences themselves were alright but nothing else was.

Crimson Peak being a gigantic flaming bomb probably doesn't help things, honestly.

Turns out making a 100% accurate recreation of stuffy old gothic romance stories doesn't have a market. Who knew, besides literally anyone Del Toro could have talked to?

>>78780166
I thought it was going for a John Carpenter's THE THING thing.

>>78777760

He's horrific, malformed and utterly mutilated by the bomb. I love it. This isn't a heroic godzilla, nor is it a super cool villain. It's a tortured monster.

Inb4 edge

Get over it you fucking pansies.

>>78781376
>Similarly, during the bunker part I was expecting Otachi to actually want to protect the guy after connecting with him.
Wow, so you didn't realize that it attached that particular bunker in an effort to specifically KILL Newt?
Newt learned too much from drifting with the partial brain, and with the hivemind the aliens knew this. So they sent one of the Kaiju to kill newt before the humans could use the information he got. It never "connected" with Newt, its particular mission was to KILL him.

Welcome to /co/ newfriend.

/co/, do you really see a future in kaiju stuff? The US Godzilla flick did okay enough to warrant those followups and a new Jap film, but can they reasonably expect a big success, or is the genre going to quickly peter out again, leaving only the hardcore fans caring about it?

Things don't look bright for PR, but as for Godzilla, Anno's touches and the added monsters could launch the brand to new heights just as easily as they can alienate audiences even more.

>>78782835
Didn't the execs want him to do shit like add a romance plot and PG-13? They probably would have wanted him to give it a happy ending too.
In that case I'm kind of glad he sticks to his guns about refusing to make it if he was forced to add that garbage.

>>78783008
There are only men in the expedition iirc, they wanted to add gay stuff or some bizarre alien/human connection.

What the Hell happened?

>>78782379
I assumed that, but the scene when the monster finds him by using its flower-like tongue seemed surprisingly "beautiful" and "paceful" suddendly, so for a tiny moment I wondered if there was going to be a twist that the monster wasn't actually sent to kill him, but received his signal and now had bonded with him.
I wanted the movie to surprise me with the kaiju, but they were just used to advance the plot, both the kaiju brain link and the reveal of the baby could have been used to do something interesting. I really hated the alien invaders twist.

ATMoM is basically Alien in the setting of John Carpenter's The Thing done as sci-fi instead of a slasher flick.
Considering it's what inspired both of those movies you'd better bet your ass its film adaptation needs to have a comparable sense of dread and danger to it.

Del Toro is a mexican who grew up on Mazinger. He said in interviews that the movie was not meant to be an homage to Japanese monster movies Pacific Rim's Kaiju were the same as any 70's & 80's monsters of the week in Super Robot anime. They were meant to be to look cool when they were introduced and to be beat up, not be super individualized and sell toys themselves.

A sequel would have done well with a more threatening adversary to be sure, and based on what they were talking about for a sequel after the first one's release (the aliens developing Kaiju/Jaeger hybrids) I bet we would have got that in the form of a Kaiju that had some of Gypsy Danger's parts.

- STRAYA has a couple of scenes but gets wrecked

To be fair it wasn't the sort of monumental success some fanboys are making it out to be.

But neither was it a complete failure like some other retards are saying.

More of a moderate success with many shortcomings that left people disappointed, so the sequels can go either way.

I thought Pacific Rim was okay but I didn't think it was great. It was a little too deliberately cheesy to the point where it felt like it was trying too hard, and the whole movie was very dark with lots of metal junk everywhere like a Transformers movie.

This thread made me cry. Literally.
Only worse thing would be that PR2 got jobbed by a new Adam Sandler movie. Again. Thanks a lot America.

No, you fuck off, you shithead mongoloid. The things you're calling lame are what the franchise literally IS. You don't get to come in and shit all over the entirety of it just because you believe your precious western knockoff is superior in some way. The most recent Legendary edition was fine, but 1998 was irredeemable horseshit.

You don't walk into a thread discussing kung-fu classics and then say "fuck your lame shit The Tuxedo is the only good martial arts movie"

>>78821037
The last movie was only dull because they barely showed Godzilla. They always tried cleverly hiding him with directors tricks, like having him SKREEONK on the other kaiju and then cutting off to the human protagonists' family watching the fight in the TV, or have the fight shown from the point of view of the refugees who have their van doors closing, and so on.

But the ~10 minutes of the movie that has constant kaiju fights without stupid interruptions? Those are gold and make the whole movie worth it. Especially when Godzilla uses his nuclear breath.

I do like the 1998 movie though. It's only fault was being called Godzilla - if you don't associate it with the Japanese king of monsters, then it is actually a pretty fucking fun monster movie. Then again I'm partial to Jean Reno.

>>78803835
funny thing is, when we came out of the cinema after watching Godzilla 2014, I overheard people talking about how the movie was like Pacific Rim.

>>78821833
I would prefer a chart about the ratio of Godzilla:Not Godzilla time in a movie rather than just Godzilla time, but this is good too.

>>78821488
From what I've heard, the 1998 Godzilla was fairly popular in Eastern Europe. The franchise doesn't have much history there, so they basically advertised it as "look at those crappy Jap flicks about a fat rubber monster, now LOOK AT WHAT EMMERICH CAN DO!"

Huh, I never realized that. Is THAT why the heisei movies are my favorites?

That wouldn't explain why the fuck I love Godzilla vs. Monster Zero so much though.

>>78822784
The Jaegars were plenty marketable. People were posting constantly about how awesome they were expecting China's and Russia's to be based on the blueprints. The problem is there wasn't enough time in the one movie for all of them to shine. If they had tried to make a particularly notable Kaiju, besides the looming threat of a Category 5 that they foreshadow throughout the movie, then the other Jaegars would have had even less screen time.

The problem is, and I hate that it's the case, but mecha series focusing on lots of machines and/or monsters just work better as serialized entertainment rather than one off (and if you're lucky sequel every few years getting) movies.

>The problem is there wasn't enough time in the one movie
The major problem with this movie is they spent so much time not showing that stuff we wanted to see. I was really sad having gone to see this movie hyped up. The team of Jaegers was literally just 1 doing all the fighting. Half of them die right away in first deployment even and the ultimate job of the last living one was to be a pack mule. So where did all their time go? Into extremely wooden acting from out main cast dragged out in the most painful way possible.

>>78823045
I think one of the problems with the marketing was you say like 80% of the awesome moments in the ads. I don't think Grown Ups 2 was responsible for the movie's failure (I mean come on how much overlap is there in the "geek" fanbase and the Adam Sandler fanbase?).

I'm from eastern Europe and I really like the 98 Zilla flick. Not so much as "look at how better it is than the Power Rangers", but because it's a movie I can watch and have fun with. The story makes sense, the script doesn't have humans being retarded at every other minute, the characters all act appropriate to their profession, the special effects are nice to look at even today, and it is a monster movie with a little bit of Jurassic Park thrown in. On top of that they don't try to hide the monster behind camera tricks and such bullshit either, he gets proper screen time.

And the movie has Jean Reno in it.

Like I said, the only fault of the movie is that they called the monster Godzilla.

Hollywood literally has millions of ideas, they just know that you'd rather see a low budget comedy/horror/romcom instead of something new expensive or weird. They're only giving the plebs what they want and the plebs want more Paul Blart.

>>78832968
For the updated chart 1, or in general?

You're lucky I love you, Anon.
I don't think release date is more readable than screen time, but to each their own.

Also, for anyone curious the (rounded) average screen time is 13.793 minutes, and the average film presence percentage is 13.973.

>>78777761
okay im sick of this fucking bullshit right here. The entire movie was about the introduction of godzilla, it wasnt SUPPOSED to be a hour of monster fighting you fucking spergs. I honestly liked how they kept the suspense by showing bits and pieces and suggesting his presence until he was revealed

>>78834025
some people forget about the lessons Jaws taught us

>>78783761
as that really a twist? Or are you just a special kind of stupid?

>>78834108
The difference is that we all know about Godzilla. It's like making another Spiderman film where half the film is his origin story. WE'VE SEEN IT.

>>78833836
I don't remember Godzilla Raids Again being that long.

>>78832495
Something about that Dragonzord just rubs my rhubarb the right way.

>>78834884
Oh, that's apparently because google lied to me. Maybe it got confused by the DVD that had original and english edit versions on it? I dunno.

>>78835040
I can understand that, but if I were in your shoes I'd have done a double take if I saw a sci-fi monster movie from the 1955's that was over two and a half hours long.

>>78835158
Probably, only excuse I have is I wasn't thinking particularly hard about the data- just wanted to help whatever anon with the chart request.

I won't burn more images for the sake of dumb graphics but here's the changes.

Godzilla Raids again showing 12.195%
Average showing 14.178%

I also liked Alf

>>78834909
Perhaps the fact that he can turn his head?
I like the Zordon Concept, and I'd love to see the Megazord fight a creature that isn't some kind of pun. Something actually monstrous, like the first movie, but better CGI.

>>78828100
Hey, at least this was a failed pitch

>>78777393
This.

I hope that means we can have Del Toro on JLD now though and Hellboy 3 finally too.

That sword was OP.
