Re: Pacific Rim 2 - April 7,2017
I don't hate PR. The Robots/Monsters are super well done and they're fun to watch and they're the reason I give it a 6/10. I was just left wanting when I left the theaters. I get some people don't like the Transformers movies but those have never left me wanting anything but looking forward to the next one. To each their own I guess.
I left wanting after each transformers. I left wanting Optimus to be the one to beat megatron, not the humans. I wanted the Decepticons to be better characters, I wanted to actually care when Jazz got ripped in half.
I wanted Jetfire to be the bad ass scientist he actually is, I wanted Q to actually be Wheeljack, minus the stupid personality, I wanted Devastator to be Long Haul, Mix Master, Hook, Bonecrusher, Scrapper, and Scavenger. I wanted The Fallen to be the bad ass gigantic Tank he was in the comics, not the skinny twig the film put out.
I wanted Optimus to not be a death spouting psycho path, Shockwave to be a real villain, Soundwave to actually be Megatrons second in charge, not have humans kills transformers in the most stupid of ways, not have Megatron die like a ***** at the hands of a psycho path Optimus prime.
hopefully the 4th one fixes some of those but from what I hear it doesn't.
Pacific Rim wins on the fact it never made me angry, some of the things in Transformers makes my blood boil.
