Gotta collect my damn mind about this trailer, under the cut, cause some people don’t wanna read a fucking essay lmao, just looking at details and hypothesizing.

alright, first of all, I hated that other trailer where they were like, “Join the Jaegar Uprising,” cause I thought it was gimmicky and dumb

Opening on 15-year old hacker Amara, who later is piloting her mini-solo jaeger? It might be Scrapper that DeKight talked about. It looks like maybe she built the bot herself and military ppl with those jeeps are coming to collect it, so she busts out of that warehouse?

It also looks like there might be a Jaeger on Jaeger fight going on behind her. I appreciate this opening bc it feels more like the original than the rest of the trailer. The scale is so large, you understand how big they are. In the rest of the trailer, they feel like little colorful toys/cartoons, which I kinda eh.

Can I just say, they fucking sidelined our girl Mako in this trailer?? One very wide shot of her with Boyega, and then her walking on the side of a shot next to Tian Jing(?) Not feeling confident they’re gonna do her any good.

I like the new Jaeger port they have, with 4 of them lined up next to the sea. Not sure how I feel about the fact that basically everything we see is in the daylight.

Wonder whose home Boyega is in with those Victory posters. Possibly Amara? She might idolize the old heroes since she was only 5 when the Battle of the Breach occurred. It’ll be interesting to see her and Boyega teamed together like they are later in a Jaeger since he doesn’t wanna live up to that.

Looks like some type of Jaeger/Kaiju hybrid is attacking the Chinese(?) base.

Can I just say that zooming dutch angle onto Amara and Boyega just looks so cheap and dumb? lol, like wow DRAMA!

Then there’s my beautiful wife Mako again, dressed real fancy, i love her. The smirking guy in red looks like an ass and we’re all gonna hate him. EDIT: lmao FUCK ME that’s Newt, I couldn’t tell cause he looks like a totally different character. So I guess Mako, Newt, and this Liwen Shao character are all working together? Innnnnterestingggg.

I don’t really like the new pilot suits, but that’s just me, the original suits were fucking cool as hell.

Interesting that the synopsis names Eastwood as a “rival pilot” but Eastwood calls them best friends. I guess there will be a past falling out they have to get over? Possibly that after the Breach, Eastwood got involved with the new PPDC and Boyega dropped out?

Then we get shots of Hermann and Newton. I can’t wait to see what they’re up to. Gorman said Hermann is very much still affected by the drift with Newton/Kaiju, so that should be fun *cough* gay *cough* Tho I guess Newt is in the private sector instead of with PPDC, so maybe some rivalry? I mean probably. I suppose Mako and Liwen might be working in the private sector too? Tho Mako looks like she’s wearing a very official uniform, so she could just be escorting them to the Navy, combing private and public sources?

Bracer Phoenix looks cool, the 3 pilot jaeger, I guess it doesn’t have a third arm, but the third person can drop into the cannon chest to operate. They don’t seem related though, so I wonder how the drifting technology has advanced, especially since Herman and Newton’s drift? Could be interesting. (We also see Boyega pilot with 2 different people, so same question there).

Then it looks like the four jaegers fucking blast off from the seaport?? They’ve got what looks like rockets on their backs. Wonder what that’s about? Maybe more flying Kaiju like Otachi??

The Jaeger with a whip looks cool, but, do they really need real whips inside the cockpit? also, picky note: they’re totally not in sync when they were doing that lol one has his arm straight up when the other’s is at a 90-degree angle.

But the Kaiju they whip looks cool, and then there’s a quick shot of those weird mechanical slithering things?? Then I think it’s Eastwood again with the gun on the street?

Is it just me or is almost all this fighting in the daytime and at like the same place? Even in daylight, I feel like I can’t see those 3 Kaiju very well.

There’s that Jaeger vs Jaeger fighting. I think its Guardian Bravo(?) fighting Gipsy Avenger. Sidetone, I wish they had changed Avenger’s name to not include Gipsy. Could have called it Stacker Avenger to honor Pentecost? Idk.

There’s the very quick shot of the office building being sawed by the blade, which is a direct contrast (to me) of the Pendulum scene in the first, where the buildings were empty. Maybe since this is Jaeger on Jaeger, it was unexpected? There wasn’t a warning for people to get to shelters like in the first? Maybe those shelters were shut down bc they thought Kaiju were gone? Who knows.

Then they cut to them fighting in the snow?? Interesting scene change, wonder why that happens.

Bunch of quick shots I don’t have much to say about, but THEN!! Are those Kaiju healing themselves or are they actually combining?? Also, that Kaiju with the long spiked bottom jaw with all the eyes looks Fantastic!!!!

Overall it looks kinda like Transformers actually with the action. With the 4 jaegers standing together, idk it looks a bit gimmicky and silly.

There has been a lot of writers working on this movie, so I’m worried that the story is going to be lackluster, but I hope it's not. I’m also not a big fan of that song they played over all the action. also… did Newton get fucking contacts??

Last picky thing: Some of those Jaegers are a bit Skinny, look like they’re gonna fucking break in half

EDIT: I have more to say

Also, Jake calls the Jaegers monsters?? But like with real bite, not like they’re just big weapons. What has the Jaeger tech been used for since the Battle at the Breach? Because the newest ones were Mock 5 in PacRim 1, right? But there’s only 1 Mock 5 in this one, and they’re all Mock 6 now. So they obviously kept building? Were they used to fight human wars? Police the populace?

EDIT again lmao: I didn’t say anything about it, but I’m still sad that Raleigh and Herc Hansen aren’t in this. Herc, my beautiful man who watches his son die in the sea for the cause :(((( I wonder if they’re going to explain it away, have them have died before these events, or maybe just not address it? Tho I think not addressing it would be a bad move since so many characters are returning and interact. But I don’t want them to have died in the interim either??? Ugh, idk. As long as they don’t sideline Mako too much it should be fine.
