Pacific Rim: The Official Movie Novelization
Pacific Rim: The Official Movie Novelization | Alex Irvine
4 posts | 3 read | 1 reading
The official novelization of the upcoming sci-fi blockbuster Pacific Rim from visionary director Guillermo del Toro! When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes-a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)-who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse. "I wanted to make not a war movie, but an adventure movie, with a huge, romantic sense of adventure, a sense of grandeur, and operatic battles..." - Guillermo Del Toro

Tonight's book recommendation is the official novel adaptation of Pacific Rim. This is one of my favorite movies and this book is surprisingly good. I know that is rare. Usually the books like this where the movie came first are watered down and formulaic and boring but this one captured the characters well and gives insight into their thoughts. I was impressed. #pacificrim #kaiju #jaegar #movienovels #adaptation #movecamefirst
