But you have to understand – Godzilla 1998 made me so angry that I wanted to sentence Emmerich to a life of having his genitals leapt upon by fat guys in cleats, and yet, the need to channel and vent that nerd rage resulted in the first time I ever actually reviewed a film, so I also kind of owe it my current career – something I've just realized while putting together this article. I recently spoke to Beacham about both projects, and I may have lost some of my journalistic objectivity in the process due to my eagerness. In it, we'll see the first attack from the Kaiju – the monsters – as well as the rise of the Jaegers – humankind's giant robots, helmed by a pair of pilots working in mind-linked unison. He co-wrote the screenplay with Del Toro, and he's also giving us a prequel – Pacific Rim: Tales From Year Zero – in graphic novel form, due out on June 5. ![]() We have Travis Beacham to thank for that, since he was the impetus that got this ball rolling. ![]()
