They on the same planet, dammit.

They on the same planet.

32, are the kaiju actually a metaphor

describing sea level rise

and the attendant risks of global climate change?

I think that was an intention.

That's absolutely what it is.

Hit the nail on the head, 32.

How to draw kaiju.

Oh do we have to do this?

No, no.

No way we're doing--

Alright this is my moment.

This is why I got into acting.

Pretty good kaiju, isn't it?

That is really good.

That's like a kaiju mixed with a My Little Pony.

(laughing)

Which kaiju was pregnant?

It would be insensitive to pick one out, wouldn't it?

You never want to go up to a kaiju and be like,

are you pregnant? Are you pregnant

or have you?

Yeah, you look pregnant.

You're really gonna get your city stomped if you do that.

It's your eyes, isn't it?

No, that's when-- No, no,

it's their blood, right?

It's blue and then people get high off of it.

Oh, kaiju blue.

And then that's a thing in the first movie.

And it stains everything, yeah that's what that is.

It's good stuff, right?

Yeah, it's also a form of depression.

How much would it cost to build a jaeger from Pacific Rim?

One billion dollars. (buzzer)

One billion, no.

No?

Maintenance on that?

More?

Yeah.

So not affordable at all.

Not affordable at all, not affordable at all.

These things are stuck together

I don't know what was going on.

It's kaiju blue.

It's kaiju blue.

Kaiju blue all over these.

What if kaiju were real?

What if man, good question bro.

What if kaiju were real?

What if they were real?

(laughing)

Kaiju blue.

Well we'd all be in big trouble.

Big trouble. It's true.

What does kaiju mean?

Oh I know that, monster.

How are kaijus made?

I mean they're biologically

put together, weaponized, monsters.

I was thinking a little...

(laughing) kaiju...

Well yeah, that's the confusing thing

because one was pregnant, at the same time

we do say they were synthetically designed

so they designed a pregnant one.

You're picking holes in it.

Yeah, yeah, sorry.

Are Godzilla and Pacific Rim related?

Talked about it, we say yes.

Yes.

14, was Godzilla a kaiju?

I think so.

I think so.

I mean, seems like it.

Oh, well you can get your cards from Tops.

What were they?

I used to sell them in school.

They were trading cards,

and they also done Pokemon cards as well.

Oh I did Pokemon cards too!

Did you? Yes!

Oh I would have taken full advantage of that.

(laughing)

Who are jaeger competitors?

Well you know Musker's doing quite well, isn't he?

Yeah, Tesla, you probably gotta watch out for--

Yeah. Yeah, definitely

watch out for that sneaky.

Does Pacific Rim pass the--

The Bechdel Test?

Oh hell yeah.

Yeah, Amara and Vik talk about--

They're life, what they've been through.

Tech, Jaeger tech.

We pass!

How are jaegers named?

It's like your stripper name.

There's the street you lived on--

The street you lived on--

Was it your first pet and--

Yeah, some of that, pet and the street you lived on.

Or the street you lived on and like how you felt about it.

How many jaegers are there in Pacific Rim?

Oh. Aw.

I'm not gonna get the exact number,

but I'll get close to it.

Nine.

(buzzer)

Nah, there were not 21 jaegers in the film Pacific Rim.

21, where are they?

Okay, well then.

I don't know why I'm laughing at you

I'm supposed to be on your team.

I'm like.

Why did the kaiju want Newt?

Why does anyone want Newt?

I had info, I'm, it's--

Well you're loud too in the middle of--

Yeah, I was trying to,

Not about it.

Well that's a few more extra hours on the toilet.

Okay, six, if the government

wanted to cover up a kaiju attack

on a major city, how would they go about it?

Fake news.

Yeah, fake news, they would start saying like,

so you're city didn't get stomped by a monster.

It's just these liberal softies want you to believe

that the problem is the monsters,

the problem is we don't have enough guns.

That's what they would say.

Why jaegers need two pilots.

Jaegers need two pilots because you actually can't control

a jaeger with just one, you need two minds

to be able to control it's power.

Unless you're piloting Scrapper,

then Amara's got it figured out, so.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, what's the line?

A single neural load.

Single neural load, that's what Scrapper runs on.

Are Newt and Gottlieb drift-compatible?

I saw some dark things

drifting with that little character.

But I think we could pull it off.

What kaiju are you?

Mega kaiju.

Yeah, I'm that mega, I'm that mega.

You want me to do it?

Yeah, do it. Let's do it.

The thing people are asking the most

is how Pacific Rim should have ended.

Should have ended?

How Pacific Rim should have ended is the question?

How should Pacific Rim have ended?

Or how should Pacific Rim have ended?

Or ended dot dot dot dot?

I was pretty happy with how it--

Yeah, I thought it ended okay.

The number one searched Google question is

what does jaeger mean?

Hunter, hunter.

Oh! Bang!
