Yes.

Yes.

I don't know about this. There are plenty of contenders for that title but I will add this to my "must see" list.

I have no idea, on several levels. But someone told me it was the same voice that's in the Portal game. Is this what you mean?

This looks amazing, or like it should be amazing.

If you want to churn out some Glados dialogue in anticipation of the movie, you might be able to use

The robot has a rocket engine in it's elbow so it can punch monsters with rocket engine force! (2:03) It's pure genius, I say! Image

Y'all must not watch Sons of Anarchy, the voice-over is Charlie Hunnam.

This looks awesome, can't wait.

It was the voice of the robot suit I referred to. Only heard briefly in the trailer. And it is indeed Ellen McClain.

Yes, that is pretty much my favorite way of armed robots punching. :D

A seriousely good director going in a slightly different direction (pure sci-fi as opposed to more fantasy type stuff) - has got to be a major 'must see' on the big screen.

"Let's go fishin."

Second trailer.

Extremely awesome. Yes, he's beating on a kaiju with a container ship.

Okay--another must-see popcorn film on my list for this summer.

I wonder if Mr. Del Toro would be interested in directing a Fallout movie?

I've been skeptical of this because of the concept, but it is del Toro, and it's getting very good reviews. I'm going to go see it.

A couple of friends went to see it and said it was great. True summer action flick with a pretty decent story even. And they said the fight scenes are awesome
