surely no oscars for that movie but—what fun! ha ha ha.

You know what? I don’t even remember anything specific about Pacific Rim except for cool fighting and terrible dialogue about whether or not the operators are — what’s the term? Compatible, basically, but I forget how they say it. ??
Anyway, sounds like you feel about it the way I feel about Kill Bill (never seen the Grindhouse movies). Maybe I’ll Give it another shot.
There’s a sequel coming out in like a week I think.
