User blog:Sonic L.B/Pacific Rim: Uprising

Greetings user!

Welcome to Random Blog #1!

Pacific Rim: Uprising was in all honesty a dissapointent to those, like my self, who enjoyed the first movie. Pacific Rim explained almost everything they talked about from the Drift to the Breach. Pacific Rim: Uprising puts in little to no effort explaining things. The new Jaegers are cool but lacking in some elements. The Precursors just come out of nowhere after being, supposedly or completely, destroyed.

Jaegers

The Jaegers in Pacific Rim: Uprising are cool but too cartoony. Their movements don't have that heavy feeling the originals did. When Gipsy Danger smacks Otachi with a boat you could feel the effect of that hit but in Uprising no such feeling exsists. The Drive Suits are poorly designed. Some of the concepts of Uprising are awesome but need more explaining and detail.

Precursors/Kaiju

[Spolier Warning]

At the end of Pacific Rim Gipsy Danger is detonated to destroy the Anteverse Kaiju cloning facility but its never clear if the Precursors are fully destroyed. As far we knew the Precursors had died in the explosion. In Uprising Newton is controlled by the Precursors to create the drones to reopen the Breach. While theres the obvious reason as to why they want the Breach open its never explianed how it can be repoened from Earth.

Characters/Plot

The characters in Pacific Rim: Uprising are by far the dullest. Not much backstory, Jake comes out of nowhere, and their reasons for having children be "cadets" is never clearly stated. Plus all their stories are cliche, they try to be funny, and aren't ever serious. Its hard to have any sense of danger with these characters.

In conclusion Pacific Rim: Uprising is a fun theater experience but the story doesn't make a lot of sense. Thank you for taking the time to read this blog post! I hope you enjoyed and can agree or disagree with this post!
