Pacific Rim Trailer - if you don't know what 'Kaiju' means....

The first Pacific Rim trailers are up, and while this blog isn't meant to be a news site or anything you need to see it!



Something I really like as we move forward: in my travels talking about the comic book / soundtrack I'm a part of (Kodoja), a suprisingly large amount of people are unfamiliar with the word 'kaiju'.  I've been stopped frequently for people to ask what that means - and these are people that know their stuff! I didn't realize it but it's quite a niche word.

I think that's about to change - 'Pacific Rim' is going to great lengths to introduce this word to a much larger audience. My hunch is by the end of 2013 the word will be thrown around by all kinds of people, casual fans and diehards alike.

Er, unless this is real footage and the apocalypse is coming. And kaiju are the reason.
