Mega Shark Vs Mecha Shark

A person doesn't even need to write a clever headline when a movie title is that direct . . . and awesome. Granted, this is the latest in a long line of big-shark movies from The Asylum, so Basementites shouldn't expect high art. Then again, we're Basementites: high art isn't in our vocabulary. Mega Shark Vs. Mecha Shark is directed by Emile Edwin Smith and stars Christopher Judge, Debbie Gibson, and Elisabeth Röhm. And it's about a giant shark fighting a big robotic shark. What more needs to be said? Mega Shark Vs. Mecha Shark arrives on Blu-ray, DVD and Video On Demand Jan. 28.

Jason versus Pacific Rim

What boy of the nerd variety didn't dream of that glorious day when giant robots would throw down with giant monsters ? For the longest time we were content to watch said combat unfold in low budget Japanese movies and kiddie cartoons. Then along comes director Guillermo del Toro and the game changes. As a war between humankind and monstrous sea creatures wages on, a former pilot and a trainee are paired up to drive a seemingly obsolete special weapon in a desperate effort to save the world from the apocalypse. OK, Pacific Rim is far from perfect. The first half focuses way too much on the puny humans and Top Gun rivalries. And lets' face it, we know we're watching nothing but a bunch of special effects when it comes to the smashing. This makes it hard, at least for yours truly, to get too wrapped up in the action. These quibbles aside, Pacific Rim is the cat's ass. This movie is fun. And it fulfilled my childhood dream of watching monsters versus rob...

Um . . . wow! The Pacific Rim Wondercon trailer delivers

I was sold on Guillermo del Toro 's Pacific Rim because of the giant-robots -versus- giant-monsters concept. The first trailer delivered that. Now we've got the Wondercon trailer and oh my Christ does this ever look fucking awesome. Pardon my French, but wow! Yes, we get more of the story -- like THAT matters in a movie like this -- but, most importantly, we get more giant-robots-versus-giant-monsters goodness. THAT is what we're paying to see on July 12. THAT is all I care about. And del Toro WILL deliver. This trailer tells me so. When an alien attack threatens the Earth's existence, giant robots piloted by humans are deployed to fight off the menace. Cut, and print! Be honest here, who's excited for Pacific Rim? All of you? Good. Source: JoBlo.com Related articles Hot Trailer: 'Pacific Rim' Giant Robots! Pacific Rim Looks Insane! WonderCon Trailer Here's The WonderCon PACIFIC RIM Footage And It Is AWESOME!
