princess-oliver-jonas:vrabia:#hey guys remember this part #where the so-called weak lady character#dives off her fucking pod #goes over to the dude’s#pop’s the lid of his snow white coffin off #and basically hugs him back to life#and he gives her this soft little smile #and they forehead bump#and instead of fucking wedding bells #it’s military choppers overhead#in a vee formation (via quigonejinn)I remember there was this post going around a short while after the movie came out criticizing Mako for breaking into tears over Raleigh’s supposedly dead body, instead of like, keeping a cool head and going into first aid mode. First of all, enthusiasts of the Mako is feeble and submissive line of disgusting reasoning: she does keep a cool head. The first thing she does is check if he’s breathing and look for his pulse. It’s only when she can’t find it that she breaks down in tears over Raleigh’s supposedly dead body. Which leads us to my next point, i.e., the fact that Mako’s lost how many people she cares about over the last couple of days? And I mean, culminating with the death of her father and asshole adoptive brother, both of whom basically died protecting her and Raleigh. Whom by the way is dead too for all she knows.But god forbid a woman should emote on screen under the pressure of real human feelings of grief and love and loss and at the same time be a qualified badass warrior, lipstick-wearing pretty girl with perfect eyebrows. Everyone knows those things are incompatible. (Basically everything about this scene was perfect in every single detail, and if you think Mako having a breakdown at this particular point somehow diminishes her character, don’t talk to me.)#Dont talk to me about this scene.#they were under budget at the end of this movie#UNDER FUCKING BUDGET after building the entire street the kaiju destroyed#after building the massive set for the bby kaiju scenes#these geniuses were under budget#so what do they do?#this scene. this scene was something del toro was thinking about and p sure wasnt gonna make it into the movie let alone filmed#but then they got to it#they set it up in a pool and bring s the resolution to the whole fucking kaiju war to a close#in the same fashion that we’d been fighting it w#together. for each other. unable to even move the weapons we created w out a partner#this scene shows u that after everything they’ve been through after all the loss and pain#they are not empty shells former husks they are ok they saved the world together#and lbr whether u lost someone or not u’d be crying in that moment. because its over.#pacific rim (iloveeverythingwaytoomuch) -- source link
