I have planned to write a post about Pacific Rim
since I saw the film, a few weeks ago now. I wanted to recommend that you see
it at the cinema, in full 3D Imax glory whilst it was still running.
Unfortunately I think I may have missed the boat on that one. I left it too
long, and as time passed, whilst my love for the film remained, my argument as
to why you should see it above any others became a bit hazy. Try as I might, I
just wasn’t feeling this one. The only way to write a post like that is to do
it with a fire in your belly. Being the dumbass that I can be sometimes, I left
it too long and the fire receded to a smoulder. I had effectively boxed myself
into a corner, I promised myself I’d make it the topic for the next post and I
even referenced it in my last post. I’ve written other posts in the meantime,
and held them back (still holding, it’s nice to have a few arrows in the
quiver!) I thought the moment had truly passed, that was, until I saw Kick-Ass 2, and then I remembered what
my argument was all about.
