With the Wrestling Year over I can prepare for Christmas But Until then I have 5 reviews still in me.


And this is the first.


We Start off with a prologue read by Chris Hunman, It's Six years into the future, and the world is under siege by Kaiju, giant Sea Monsters from a another world.


"It all Started when a Kaiju Outraged San Francisco...."
Kaiju are anti-LGBT Rights!


In the 6 day fire fight the Kaiju destroys 3 cities, even it's blood, Kaiju Blue is toxic. 6 Months later, Kaiju attack Manilla, Bangkok, and Cabo.


South East Asia? Cabo? They didn't come to kill, they came to get laid!


So humanity unites only because of our hatred of the aliens (Jason Manford was right!)


....And Created a New Weapon, A giant robotic suit called Jaegers. Remote controlled by a psychic link from the pilot. At first the Psychic Strain is too much, until a 2-man programme proved to be more successful, each pilot controlling a side. Humanity was winning, and as always, Humanity turned soldiers into heroes and the enemies into caricatures that are mocked and ridiculed....Until now


Alaska 2020
Rayleigh and Yangzee Baker (Both Hunman) are the pilots of the Gypsy Danger, And Things have changed. The Kaiju attacks have intensified from 6 months to a fortnight apart. Even Though only 1 exits the breach 1 at a time, the ferocity of the attack has also intensified, meaning Jaegers are being destroyed quicker than those being repaired.


The Jaegers are , as mentioned controlled by a Psychic Link but not anyone can control a machine. They must be strong enough to survive "Drifting" A process were all the memories of the 2 pilots are combined and digitised to sync the control- As the Baker Brothers share the same memories, they are the best men for the job, as overlooked by Commander Pentecost (Idris Elbra). The Gypsy Danger Makes Landfall


And the American built Jaegers Look incredible, it's dark and tough, the closest thing to Iron Man's HulkBuster Armour without the Nazi Rat calling it's Lawyers!


So the Gypsy disobeys orders and saves a boating ship from Codename:Nightwolf but its horn severs the left arm and eats Yangstee like a peanut! On his own, Rayleigh makes it to land, stunned and badly injured as the title drops


5 years Later, And Pentecost is in conference with the U.N. Seattle Siberia and Macau have being nuked from existence, the Kaiju are attacking every 4 days and Mechanical and human resources are running out, Lives are lost everyday and the government is putting it's eggs into the Wall of Life, a Coastal Barrier around the Breach and they are closing down the Jaeger program in 8 months and moving them all to Hong Kong.


Back in Alaska, Rayleigh gets a job as a weilder on the American Portion of the wall. When he collects his Rations, he sees the news. A Kaiju in Sydney tears through their wall like it's wet Kleenex! Naturally the workers are pissed. The Kaiju was destroyed by Striker-A Commonwealth Jaeger retro built out Blighty's Best-the train and Sleath bomber. The Pilot Chuck Hendrix calls out the U.N for decommissioning the Jaeger Programme


A chopper containing Pentecost lands on the site. All of his pilots are dead and wants Rayleigh back until be can find Drift-Ready recruits, he lets him in on a secret- They rebuild the Gypsy Danger! So Baker Reluctantly accepts, when he arrives. A Mysterious Japanese Girl waifs into his view and into his life forever!


So we meet our other crew members-Our McCoy-Herman-Serious, Analytical, and walking with limp from an undisclosed Kaiju Attack and Newton-aka Nuke-A man with-how should I put it-A HARD ON FOR KAIJU!-NOT LITERALLY, OF COURSE!-But if this film was based on reality, he'd be pesky hippy trying to save the man-eating tigers, before ultimately getting eaten!

So in Hong Kong's Shatterdome we met the other Jaegers, China with it's Red Star, manned by triplets, Russia retrofitted from Cold war Tanks and The Commonwealth, Manned by Ozzies but on loan from Britain and Taxed to the hilt because of it.

So Nostalgia chick was right. All the Jaegers are Racial Stereotypes! Why do I get the feeling the Irish Jaeger will be Powered by Bona Na Mona Peat Briquettes, Made out of A Massey Ferguson tractor and a  DeLorean, and will be a shitty version of the British One?

So the plan is to attack the Breach-The underwater entrance in the Pacific ocean that is a portal to their world-Something that was tried before but failed because of the environmental conditions.

Herman gives Pentecost Good News and Bad News, the Bad is that the rate the attack increase, In 4 days the Kaiju will attack every 4 hours the good news, the increased traffic will widen the Breach to safety land a Jaeger to launch a missile to destroy the nexus. Nuke interjects that a kaiju is not breed of animal: they are modified clones of the same animal, something intelligent is changing their appearance to make them fit for purpose. Now if the commander could only allow Nuke to Drift with A life Kaiju or even it's Brain...But of Course Pentecost doesn't let that happen!

WILL HUMANITY UNITE TO DEFEAT THE KAIJU?
WILL NUKE DISOBEY PENTECOST'S ORDERS?
WILL THE KAIJU'S APPEARANCE IN RESORTS FORCE MTV TO MAKE A "KAIJU SHORE" "REALITY" SHOW?

ONLY 2 OF THESE QUESTIONS WILL BE ANSWERED IN NOVEMBER, ONLY ON BOGGER BOX OFFICE!
