‘Pacific Rim’ Writer Travis Beacham Wanted to Travel to the Other Side of the Rift in Sequels

While director Guillermo del Toro‘s lavish Kaiju movie was noticeably divisive online, it was embraced worldwide and became a modest box-office hit.

The Legendary Pictures production earned enough cash in China to produce sequel, Pacific Rim Uprising, which didn’t live up to the charm and personality of the first movie.

A disappointment for any fan of the original movie, especially considering del Toro delivers the goods with sequels — Hellboy II: The Golden Army and Blade II.

del Toro’s sequels get deeper, weirder, and substantially improve upon what came before, which I have no doubt he would’ve done with a Pacific Rim sequel.

I talked to Guillermo about it early on, because there were a ton of crazy ideas for where it could go.

I don’t know if you could just jump right in and do that, but maybe after a few movies.

While I wish del Toro got the chance to work more of his magic on this franchise, at least we haven’t reached the end of Pacific Rim stories. »

The concern is that mandatory vaccinations could cause parents with anti-vaccination beliefs to grow even more distrustful of health officials and the government.

For instance, the WHO has called on social-media companies to step up efforts to stop the spread of false information about vaccines. »
