I LOVE Blommie’s design skills and VFX style. I hope he finds his groove and doesn’t wash out of Hollywood.

The problem is that he’s a shit writer. He’s a competent director, and an excellent VFX artist and cinematographer. But his writing is limited, starting with interesting concepts that stall out, or miss their own points.

Alien Isolation was pretty great. I loved that game.

The problem is he is one-note so far. He makes amazingly impressive fake-news footage.

That’s too bad. Elysium was not my cup of tea, but Blomkamp has such a distinctive sense of design (and such a strange sense of humor, when he’s not busy allegorizing) that I was more interested in his sequel than Scott’s religiously-tinged musings about life, the universe, and slimy monsters. I hope Blomkamp dumps…

I will take one more Ridley Scott Alien movie over ten Neil Blomkamp movies.

I’ve been subjected to the horrors that were Alien 3, Alien: Resurection, Alien vs Predator, Alien vs Predator: Requiem, and Prometheus.

Why does anyone even care about this franchise anymore? Like the Terminator it seems to survive purely on the love of its early installments despite producing nothing but crap for nearly 30 years!

I honestly don’t think anything from Blomkamp would have been worse than Prometheus. Not a terrible movie, but definitely not on a par with Alien.

I can just imagine Aryan wandering through Westros with a backpack that has lots of people’s faces in it.

Y’know....if the technology of the Pacific Rim universe was at least as up to snuff as our own...wouldn’t Jagers be piloted remotely by Bluetooth or something?

Yea, that was my thought... It took me a few minutes. I had to scroll back up when the names clicked in my head. George, Lizzy and Ralph. WTF?

I FIGHT FOR RICHARD BASEHART!

She is fully digitally analog.

That’s all fine and good but if that sucker isn’t still analog she’s screwed the first time a kaiju launches an EMP.

Cool. Now if they can have the fights take place during the day instead of in the middle of a night-time rainstorm or the bottom of the mariana trench, that’s be hot.

I recognize only one ‘bot with that designation:

Rampage? As in Rampage the videogame? The game I used to play at Pizza Hut that they had next to that one gun game that would let you shoot CDs at bad guys Rampage?

I hope so. I always figured that Arya would steal a bunch of people’s faces and that it would be a great opportunity to cast some semi-famous/recognizable actors to be in GoT for 5 minutes only to be revealed as Arya as she stabs people to death.
