I enjoy PR in spite of Hunnam's character, who I consider another Bland, Mildly Handsome, Decently Built, Slightly Rugged White Guy Lead. There are way too many of these. Garrett Hedlund in Tron Legacy, Taylor Kitsch in Battleship (and to a lesser extent, John Carter), Aaron Taylor-Johnson in Godzilla. Despite my nickname, my problem isn't that they are white or male, it's that they (or at least, their characters) have all the charisma of a Ken doll. Interesting characters and stuff happen AROUND them, sure, but they aren't interesting in the slightest. They aren't even compelling as audience surrogates in the way that Mark Hamill was as Luke Skywalker.

Magic blood

Why not just magically resurrect him in defiance of all logic, even in-universe logic, like Sean Connery in Highlander II?

It does seem to be the solution to everything nowadays.

Oh boy...

How could I not see the answer before? SECRET PAN-PACIFIC DEFENSE CORPS CLONING EXPERIMENTS. Worked for Ripley...

These are some fucking bad actors stuck in cliche characters. And this is my problem with this movie. I do hope del Toro casts new actors for new characters way better than he did the last time.

And now the Gorilla one arrives. Shitty Kaiju.

 

The other one is incredibly cool, tho. 

 

And now all of the Jaegers are gonna get their asses kicked in 10 seconds. 

[ddddeeee]

The 'Australian' guys are probably the most entertaining part of the movie.
