The west has yet to create something that is on par with, let alone suprass it.

Well, no one likes giant robots in "the west". It's either vanilla fantasy or vanilla sci-fi and nothing else.

why can't we have nice things like a prequel.

Just make your own mecha stories. Why wait for corpo hollyjew to do it for you?

They should have just left it untouched.

Megas XLR
Transformers
Battletech
Things like Thunderbirds and Captain Scartett follow very, very similar leylines to typical mecha.
Strike Suit Zero is a straight up mecha game in the same vein of things like Armored Core but with influences from Freespace & Freelancer

The thing is trying to convince hollywood bigwigs to let directors like Del toro have more creative freedom and funding. It's still a miracle Pacific Rim was even greenlighted, but cause it didn't make a billion dollars, there's still hesitancy. It's a shame Uprising had too much third party meddling, the original creative team not present, and too many changes that killed any "soul"

I hope Del Toro comes back and does a 3rd movie.

The sequel was infinitely better.

What about a time lapse of the diabetes slowly eating up his legs.

Pacific rim gave us the single most unique mecha piliting interface. Such innovation from Del Toro :)

And then Pacific Rim 2 happened.

Remember that the non canon sequel was a pile of shit because jon oogabooga thought they should move like megazords instead of multi ton machines
