high five, hero

Just re-watched Pacific Rim last night — I didn’t really notice the first time around how much of it is sort of the Stacker-Herc-Tendo show.

Also, can I just say how much I love how they SHOUT THEIR LINES WITH GREAT ENTHUSIASM!!!

I mean, sure, the whole “canceling the apocalypse” speech deserved to be at top volume, but there is a lot of shouting going on in this movie. THEY JUST FEEL VERY STRONGLY ABOUT THINGS! NOTHING WEIRD ABOUT THAT!

This was a particular favorite:

“Now, we have a choice here. We either sit and wait or we take these flare guns and do something really stupid.”
-Herc

Except it would probably more accurately be quoted as this:

“NOW WE HAVE A CHOICE HERE! We either SIT AND WAIT or we TAKE THESE FLARE GUNS and do something *REALLY* STUPID!!!”
-HERC

In conclusion, Pacific Rim was even more fun the second time around.

I have to say, that was one of my favorite lines in the movie. :D

I think it's the way he says it -- the emphasis, the expression, the accent -- it all comes together to be sheer awesome.
