Because Pacific Rim creates such a rich world, I think you could also do a separate, stand-alone film that explores a different aspect of that world. For instance, you could make an entire film about Hannibal Chou's Kaiju-scrapping operation. Hell, maybe Hannibal gets into the Jaeger scrap business and cobbles

Gordon: "You will have…one hour to deliver a..PERFECT rambling monologue whilst at. the. same. time. assaulting the most…STUNNING officer of the peace in this ultimate dreaded pressure test. If you fail, at least ONE OF YOU will be leaving the Master Chef kitchen. Your time…starts…NOW."

One thing I loved was how Charlie Day and Burn Gorman were essentially R2D2 and C3PO in human form, respectively.

For the sequel, Jaegers vs. Cthulhu! Imagine Jaeger pilots going mad in the drift when confronted with the disturbingly non-euclidean geometries of R'lyeh!

Duh. The final five are Saul and Ellen Tigh, Tory, Anders, and THE CHIEF!

Hell of a drug.

I said "WHOAH! I'm just not ready for that kind of commitment!"

Gordon's lines appear to be made using a Gordon Ramsey Soundboard, one word at a time. I'm not convinced that they haven't replaced him with a Gordon Ramdroid.

@avclub-e1228be46de6a0234ac22ded31417bc7:disqus Casey's recitation of the MLS teams at the time is yet another jarring reminder that yep, it's been 13 years since this show aired. Probably most glaring is the inclusion of the Tampa Bay Mutiny and the Miami Fusion. God, the names were bad back then.

In the time I was in college between 2001 and 2005, I witnessed the gradual death of the video store. When I arrived on campus, there were four video stores within three miles of campus, and my room-mate and I took full advantage of them. By 2005, all but one of them had closed, and that one only lasted another year.

I know. Though I love Dan, I find his opinions on soccer to be abhorrent. Why couldn't his breakdown have altered his appreciation for The Beautiful Game?

Saul Goodman and Barry Zuckercorn should totally go into business together…After all, Barry needs someone who can pick him up from the City of Industry.

TAKE TO THE SEA!

That would explain a few things, but sadly, no.

Yeah, the post-break-up division of friends can be rather awkward, especially when social interaction is mostly limited to the same circle of people. Sometimes, it can get hilariously weird. For instance, I have a good friend whom I met because he lived in my then-girlfriend's basement. When she and I broke up, her

Exactly. There's a feeling like all the atmosphere is manufactured by higher powers at most american sports, whereas soccer has an atmosphere generated by its fans, for its fans. This also has the hilarious side-effect of making it a lot harder for broadcast networks when fan chants veer into profanity.

Do it, ROCK-A-PELLA!

A separate, but related problem is the increasing tyranny of the Jumbotron in baseball, football, and basketball, which mesmerizes the crowd and prompts all cheers and chants. Thus, the vast bulk of fan activity is controlled by the team's FO, rather than emerging organically from fan organizations. Contrast this with

I know about football things because I spend my evenings playing Football Manager. This is the nerdiest possible way to be a sports fan.

What was Wenger thinking, bringing Wolcott on so early?
