Duke Pentecost and Mako Mori at a fictional funeral for Stacker (if there is even one organised) and general angstness=(
I’m so excited for John Bogeya to be in Pacific Rim 2 though I’m kind of sad not to see any of the surviving casts’ names in the list=(
So this is just wistful thinking but ever since finding out Stacker has a son I kind of hope that with Herc and Stacker co-parenting together, in the end Herc isn’t entirely alone in the world as he had Mako and Duke and sometimes if you mesh together two broken pieces hard enough they just might stick. Because the alternative is his only companion left would be a bulldog that is growing old. My heart D:
The best thing about Ellen McLain voicing the AI in Pacific Rim is it means that someone (in verse) either painstakingly programmed the voice to sound like her because they thought it would be funny/ironic, or they were just that much of a nerd
Jaeger command: make the AI interface sound nice, guys. feminine, maybe, but competent. reassuring. someone you’d trust to keep you safe.
Jaeger programmers: we’re going to make her sound like GLaDOS.
Like, they’re both in the drift while working the jaeger, right?
So when Mako says “For my family” it’s really for her family but it’s also for Yancy, too, isn’t it?
Because there’s lots of reasons they’re drift compatible, but part of that is a deep understanding of fear and powerlessness and helplessness and pain in the face of the kaiju, of trauma that cannot necessarily be seen but is felt nonetheless.
Like, ugh,I really love this, why did it take me three years to see it
Because neither of us will ever, ever stop loving Pacific Rim, this crossover was inevitable. There is a shared line: “Great, kid!/Hey, kid! Don’t get cocky.”
