Pacific Rim
In a world where humanity has chosen to fight monsters with monsters ( or robots if you will) ((and I know you will)) we see the events that allow this 20 year threat on earth put to rest.
From same director of Hellboy, we see the first (hopefully not last) western mecha movie. Guillermo del Toro gives us a film inspired by his childhood fascinations influences by Japanese anime, and television shows.
This movie is good, I can't say I was disappointed, I can't say I was satisfied but I was thoroughly fed in action and excitement wise. I Hope this movie gains enough revenue to get a sequel, because I think the American Film Industry can use more of these types of movies. No, I don't mean towering robots fighting monsters. But I mean movies that take such foreign ideas and the film maker is so inspired by, that they put heart in to there film inspired by their childhood nostalgia. This movie is just a perfect example of this, and bad example would be the 1998 Godzilla with simba, I mean Matthew Broderick . This movie "Makes This Work."
World War Z
It's not the best movie ever made. But it had something that is rare in a horror/thriller flick, it had heart. Now I've never read the book so I can't say anything about that. But what I loved about the movie was that here is a character placed in a life or death situation with only seconds to choose and all he is worried about is the safety of his wife and two daughters, that tells me that this movie had heart.
Decision
I have decided to do some thing with this blog.
At first I contemplated whether to just let this blog hide away in the every growing vastness of cyberspace, or to put it out of it's misery. But recently a new thought came to me, I have a voice, and an opinion on things like movies and games. So. I have come to the conclusion that I will continue this blog for uses of voicing my opinion on games, and films, and where else should I do this but here on an already existing blog. So with out further ado lets begin.
