"Dwarfing jets, tanks, and helicopters alike, the Jaegers and Kaiju (Pacific Rim’s skyscraper-sized mecha and monster combatants, respectively) battle it out one pose at a time, like enormous obsidian action figures in the hands of an unseen child. Robot jocks throw punches, colossal fists crack gargantuan jaws, cities crumble, kaiju roar, and the screen becomes a twirling tangle of machine and monstrosity." — Art of the Title
As the smoke clears from the epic battle, we venture through an array of monsters, machines, and their monumental feats in this stereoscopic 3D graphic-novel inspired end title sequence. An closing homage to director Guillermo del Toro's awesome vision, this piece presents his colossal creations in stylistic fashion.
A foreboding war room map collapses inwards, enveloping the emblems of fallen heroes in this ominous prelude which ushers us into the apocalyptic world of Pacific Rim.
