Whatever wanna tell yourself champ.
No where did I write box office success equals quality of the film.
I do however know that both films where funded and created with the intention of making money and not artistic pursuit. And on that front Pacific Rim was a failure. But if it had been runaway success and already had another sequel out and another green light you'd be in here trashing it because you're a predictable hipster euro faq.
But you're a pretentious hypocrite so no surprise you want to end the debate.
I'm pretty sure this debate only exists because of the news that WB and Del Toro are in fact making Pacific Rim 2. That kind of nullifies your whole point since clearly it did well enough for WB to pursue a sequel. And lol @ "the intention of making money and not artistic pursuit". None of that hat anything to do with the question whether the resulting movie is good or not. So who's really being the 'pretentious' hypocrite here, Mr.
"I didn't write box office success equals quality of the film, I only mentioned that Transformers is the more successful franchise and Pacific Rim barely made enough money in a discussion about their quality like that proves something"?
The funny thing about you is you try so hard to be different but you're just another hive mind doofus.
Heres you being the marvel stan you are and bringing up box office
lol @ you pulling up some instigating troll post.
If you had bothered to keep track you'd know I don't give a fukk about GotG one bit. Go back and check the official thread if you're not too busy getting caught up in your feelings. And you wonder why I'm ending the debate when you can't even stay on topic and resort to petty insults. Stay mad, breh.
You don't even believe that
AND lol at Idris Elba playing one of the most generic T.V. tropes of supporting lead outshining anyone in Transformers 1
I do believe that because Rinko Kikuchi despite her obvious language struggles is still a good actress. And pretend the leads in T1 aren't the most generic of blockbuster tropes. The only reason they might not be generic is only because Bay blows them up to such cartoonish proportions that they exist on an entirely different level.
I like Guillermo Del Toro movies, but I don't think he can make movies with a budget under $100 million anymore
I think the problem is that for all his creative vision, he lacks storytelling skills. The only truly great story he ever told was Pan's Labyrinth and I don't think he has another one of those in him.
