I saw Pacific Rim Uprising today and (like most of you?) I was disappointed. Woe
A few actual thoughts:
Mako’s pointless, fridge-y death pretty much put me off the rest of the movie. And then she barely gets a mention again until the end? Gah. It’s honestly kinda insulting, is what it is.
I’m assuming the blonde military girl is the child of the Russian pilots from the first one, although it’s never said
There was definitely something between Jake and Nate. Like, Jake even outright says “he’s handsome and sexy!” and their joint backstory is so vague anything could’ve happened? But this is a Hollywood movie, so, nuffin’. I hope it takes off as a ship though.
Sorry to fans of Newt, that kinda sucks, especially if a threequel never happens (Uprising hasn’t actually broken even yet so who knows)
