I don't have anything else to say yet...I ordered the import version from Amazon and now it is showing "out of stock" and they don't know when they will be getting it. So outside the movie I haven't heard it yet.

Yes, I understand it's being referred to as "The Rim Job."

You're a riot, JP. Can I sit next you in assembly? smile

So Warlok stated something in this thread (http://filmscoremonthly.com/board/posts.cfm?threadID=97308&forumID=1&archive=0)"


"A jumbled up (!) version of the score is currently available, but I notice too that an "expanded" Japanese import is on track for some time in December. Anybody have any more information on this?"


I want some information if this is true!

The listing I found imparting that description was on either Amazon.ca or .com.

I blind bought "Pacific Rim" on Blu Ray and I really liked it, Both the video and audio are demo quality. Rim is the movie that the horrible "Transformers" should have been; a movie that I detested! "Pacific Rim" was fun, with fabulous special effects, excellent del Toro direction with an appealing cast of characters, headed by Charlie Hunnam. I also liked Djawadi's music score it fit the visuals without being particularly memorable.

If only Pacific Rim had Megan Fox instead of the Asian chick, who falls for the White dude in the most offensively racist way...

But then again, Transformers 2 had the "nigga" Autobot twins and Transformers 3 had that gay Asian dude.

Fuck those racists.

You noticed that they had FEELINGS for each other but at the end HUG instead of KISS. Del Toro specifically states that they are friends and that they obviously have a bond that eventually will grown in the sequels.

Megan Fox? Really?!

You misunderstood the whole point of the the Mako and Raleigh storyline.

To drift, one must be compatible and we see that by the teams, The Father and Son [Australia], The Triplets [Japan], The Wife and Husband [Russia] and Brothers [USA].

Mako and Raleigh connect because both lost family to the Kaiju and it is just that... a connection and sure they had some love like feelings but mostly they were busy trying to stay alive and fight.

I don't agree that the nature of the relationship was racist, but I did think that Mako was too stereo-typically "Asian". She is like an interpretation or fantasy of a Asian women from a western point of view., which didn't make any sense. She is Japanese, but the majority of her life she's been raised by a black British man, apparently in a very multi cultural environment.........or she just might be a really bad actress.

Saw the film. Liked it but didn't love it. But it miles better than 2014 Godzilla or 2015 JW. This is closer to an enjoyable popcorn movie than those to.

Never been a Djawadi fan. Don't think I own a single score by him. This one is decent. Kinda of an above average RC style score.

I agree on all counts. It was a fun film and I even liked the score.

Out of the recent robots and monster movies (Transformers, Godzilla, Battleship), this was the only one I didn't see at the cinema because I didn't think much from the trailers. It looked like another desperate attempt on an idea to add to the genre... Giant robots fighting giant monsters.

When I finally saw it on DVD last year, it turned out to be my favourite of the lot! Wish I'd seen it in 3D at the cinema now, since hearing it was one of the best in that format.

Great soundtrack album as well.

GdT is out of the Justice League: Dark project, so I hope he gets to Pacific Rim 2 sooner than later.

It might be later since Perlman is pushing for Hellboy III again and he's not getting any younger!
