Personal: Pacific Rim · 5:15pm Apr 26th, 2014
So I just watched Pacific Rim. And it was pretty dumb. A lot more effective ways to kill giant sea monsters than punching them with giant robots. But you know what? I don't care, because it was cool as shit.
... I should totally write a story about a world in which giant magical pony robots fight giant monsters. Cuz friendship. And awesome.
Don't forget to make it
dumbcool as all shit too.And then have the Rarity-based robot fight a giant crab-based monster because lol and memes and all that fartwind.

Dude, I'm already planning what the Jaegers will look like X3
2049097
You don't like?
2049109 I can't help but feel this concept has been done before. You're welcome to write a silly dumb story (Lord knows most of mine are dumb and silly), the question is, should you?
Sorry, that sounds kind of douchey of me.
2049134
Not to mention extremely hypocritical considering the content of 70% of your stories. *Deadpans*
We're doing this as a collab, right?
2049081
yes!
Pacific Rim was an incredibly dumb movie, but solidly entertaining. I loved it.
I was a little disappointed that the final monster wasn't Cthulhu, though. Del Toro, I am disappoint.
2049154 Believe it or not, I have turned down ideas my head comes up with before.
2049180
I know right?
>Also super disappoint there were no shoulder cannons or wrist missiles or eyes lasers
2049176
We totally are man. Lets talk ideas later Cx
2049201
One word. Flutterbannana
2049210 There definitely should have been some eye lasers. They did have the sword-thing, though. And saw blades, for some reason.
2049220
Yeah, that was pretty funny how that badass Chinese robot got taken down in seconds. Also: Australians have missiles and double swords, Americans have plasma cannon, rocket elbows, and sword, Chinese have three arms, full rotating midsection and saws. Russians have... Piston fists and splinter cell uniforms?
Oh damn! I watched that a few weeks ago and didn't even know what it was! lol
I only say some of it, though. I thought it was pretty dumb too. :D
2049228
They forgot to bring their giant AK
2049239
Btw. We should totally have the princesses have their own super badass ultra jaeger :V
2049246
I was just thinking that.
That can definitely be the 'suddenly swoops in to save the day' moment. ^.^
*ponders how to make a plot for this thing -- other than just generic, meaningless robot violence -- without ripping off Pacific Rim*
Heh, we could tie it in to the mysterious box in the show.
Say it's a sort of a pandora's box, filled with giant monsters.
Highly compressed giant monsters.

I'll set a Gdoc after my party so we can discuss. But I've been thinking about it. I have some ideas.
2049274
I like that idea. Maybe it could do some space time disruptions all over so monsters appear at random instead of one static location, so it makes the robots more necessary and static defense won't be as effective.

I think you guys need to have an Aloe and Lotus Jaeger. Something tells me they are really good as working as a team, and deep tissue massage is only one step away from all out assault.
Also, Wonderbolts Jaeger?
2049307
Vinyl & Octavia jaeger.
Complete with bass cannon.
2049307
Totally. Hell, the Wonderbolts are primarily supposed to be a special emergency response team, so maybe the jaegers are piloted by the Wonderbolts emergency response teams. (no one ever specifically said the Wonderbolts didn't have ground teams or that they were all pegasi :V)
