Guillermo del Toro's PACIFIC RIM is looking better and better in each new glimpse of the monster flick, in what has been to date a very well run marketing campaign. Case in point is this second trailer which expands upon what we have already seen in the first iteration.
This trailer was released at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.
Here's the storyline for the movie:
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.
PACIFIC RIM is slated for release on July 13.
Hit the jump for the trailer...
