And thank god they all stopped doing that once the oughties came around, and we all suddenly realized Rob Liefeld was a terrible artist.

Wow, so you're allowed to call the movie silly and terrible, but I'm not allowed to defend it? Fuck off, asshole. It's far less forgettable than you claim it to be, and the fact the damned thing has maintained a 72% at Rotten Tomatoes means I'm not the only one who sees it as more than a silly robot movie. I never

Ironically, it was delayed, wasn't it?

Except it is. Guillermo del Toro is a good director, and majority of his storytelling is visual, not spoken. Yeah, there's tons of exposition via dialogue, but the frames tell the story as well. As a 20-year old whose exposure to good cinema is probably minimal, I don't expect you to understand.

Wait, was she not wearing a merkin?

Now playing

I most certainly did. I'm guessing you're too young to have seen shit like this:

Look, they can make it anything other than jeggings and a jacket, is what I'm saying. Make it a full-body suit, make it less form-fitting, I don't care. Just... don't bring back the 90's teeny jacket, ok? Get it?

I understand the allure of an intriguing mystery. But after trying to chase down Death Cargo for more than two weeks, I was left wondering why even the most fervent fighting game fans are still holding out for this title. Is waiting for the next real Mortal Kombat game really that bad?

John Talbain and Felicia are just two anthropomorphic animals in a game roster that includes a mummy, not-Dracula, two succubi, a punk zombie, and a fucking sasquatch. That game looks like wall-to-wall furry.

It's not about sexism, it's about how a leather jacket and jeggings barely qualify as a superhero costume. Update it if you must for modesty's sake, but keep it as a superhero suit.

Boring fights? How did you expect 300-meter robots and monsters to fight, at the speed of fucking light? And since when is using a boat as a baseball bat, or rocket punches for that matter, ever boring?

The wall was obviously meant as a jab at politicians, who tend to do the stupidest things all in the name of some lobbyist's agenda.

War knowledge? You mean he's military-trained? That's not really going to count as an advantage, since the X-Men are portrayed in the comics as going through regular, hellish training in the Danger Room (a shapeshifting piece of alien tech that eventually became sentient). As for maces and axes, again I say:

Er, BeefBroccoli was making a Total Recall reference.

Well that's sad. Looks like my purchase this month (aside from the Painkiller currently at 80% off on Steam) will be Wolfenstein: New Order instead. For shame, Ubi.

Or maybe they thought Kotaku's editors were busy posting about a new Japanese burger. :P

Congrats, you're kinda getting the point of Pacific Rim.

Were you asleep? The movie was awesome. Anyone who's a fan of kaiju, tokusatsu, and giant mecha can appreciate this movie for what it is: a giant love letter to genre shows of the past.

Fuck off. It worked for Mazinger Z, Voltes V, the Power Rangers, even goddamned fucking Godzilla.

Post-Archangel Angel was actually ridiculously overpowered. He had a healing factor aside from the wings, so unless Nth metal negates regeneration, I'd say it's still an equal match-up.
