Pacific Rim : Must Watch!



As a precocious young boy, I spent a lot of time enacting my wide-scale destruction fantasies. I would construct buildings out of Legos or wood blocks, populate them with all my favorite action figures, and then unleash my dinosaur toys (yes, I was that kid) to wreak havoc. Multi-colored bricks would go flying, plastic arms and legs crushed under lizard feet, and my little mind thought it was the greatest thing ever.
Well, it seems that Guillermo del Toro thought it was a pretty awesome idea too, as he’s bringing all the demolition and giant lizards of my imagination to theaters in the form of his new movie Pacific Rim. Now it’s understandable if you’re not quite sure what the hell I’m talking about
After all, the trailers and TV spots that have been released look more like footage from a Michael Bay daydream than a film with a cohesive plot and mythology, which it very well may be. This thing looks like a jacked-up mishmash of so many different genres that it’s hard to tell what’s what. So in order to help you decide whether or not to shell out your hard-earned Jacksons, I’ve watched all the Pacific Rim trailers and broken down some of the film’s inspirations. Think of this as the Netflix suggestions in reverse – if you love any of these genres, you’re probably going to get a kick out ofPacific Rim.

Last hurrah: Jimmy Alapag hopes to bring glory in final tour of duty with Philippine team

Jimmy Alapag’s Philippine basketball career began in earnest when he tried out to become part of the country’s national team to the Asian Games in 2002.
While he failed to make the cut that year because of an injury, the Talk ‘N Text guard has donned the country’s colors in several competitions since, including the FIBA Asia Championship in 2007 and 2011.
Lebanon star Fadi El-Khatib even went so far as calling Alapag the best point guard in Asia during the buildup to the 2007 Asian tournament.
Now 35 years old, Alapag is the oldest player in the SMART-Gilas Pilipinas pool, and he cherishes the opportunity in what could be his last tour of duty with the national squad.READ FULL ARTICLE ON AKTV.
