Check out Del Toro's Pacific Rim trailer commentary


3:00 PM on 12.14.2012



Remember that awesome trailer for Pacific Rim yesterday? Of course you do because it was awesome! The problem with all trailers though is that they raise all sorts of questions that need to be answered immediately or I'll have a stroke. Like why are there so many Godzillas fighting the Power Rangers' Megazords or why is there a little brunette girl in every one of Guillermo Del Toro's movies? 

Thankfully, Del Toro sat down with MTV to discuss some of the more interesting aspects of the trailer (although he doesn't explain the brunette girl or GLaDOS) and gives away some story tidbits. You should totally check it out and realize how much joy Del Toro has from all this.
