Pacific Rim
Movie Quote Quiz

Stacker Pentecost: Today at the edge of our hope, at the end of our time. We have chosen to believe in each other. Today we face the monsters that are at our door, today we are cancelling the apocalypse!

Raleigh Becket: There are things you can't fight - acts of God. You see a hurricane coming, you get out of the way. But when you're in a Jaeger, suddenly, you can finally fight the hurricane. You can win.

Yancy Becket: Don't get cocky, kid.

Herc Hansen: We're not going anywhere! Now, you and I are only thing standing between that ugly bastard and a city of 10 million people. Now, we have choice here, we either sit and wait or we take these flare guns and do something really stupid!

Stacker Pentecost: Haven't you heard, Mr. Beckett? The world is coming to an end. So, where would you rather die? Here, or in a Jaeger?

Stacker Pentecost: One, don't you ever touch me again. Two, don't you ever touch me again.

Factual error: During the Hong Kong battle, one of the Kaiju disables the Australian Jaeger and the base by emitting an EMP blast. Becket claimed that the Gipsy Danger was immune because it had a nuclear core and was therefore "analog". Being nuclear powered has no bearing on whether a machine is analog or not, and the EMP would certainly affect all the electronic circuitry needed to control the Gipsy.

Question: Is it ever established why the Kaiju attack cities? Why they perceive a challenge, a threat, a resource worth taking there specifically? If they are a decent biochemical match to Earth life, and are hungry, why don't they attack schools of fish, or fishing/whaling vessels, if nothing else, they should attack the cannery row? If they are after a non-living resource, like minerals, why don't they root through the seabed or attack mines?

Chosen answer: Because they are scouts for an invasion of Earth from another dimension. They are testing our response to their arrival and military capabilities and the best way to attract military attention is to attack population centers.
