Pacific Rim

That was a lot of fun. Really loud in the theater, but I guess that works for giant mecha fighting giant monsters. I appreciated that it wasn't a grimdark world, despite all the massive destruction and apocalyptic setting, and that the heroes weren't cynical. And I liked the aesthetics and design of both the Kaiju and the Jaegers. I hope there'll be lots of Raleigh/Mako soon.

And of course as much of fandom I see the endless crossover possibilities. If I was any good at drawing mecha, I'd definitely design an Iron Man inspired Jaeger with Tony Stark linked to either Pepper or Steve...

(And I need to make some robot-related icon somehow -- the Borg one doesn't really fit here...)

I totally want to see it again.

My favorite Raleigh/Mako fic so far: Brand New Empire
