EXACTLY

I bloody love that anime. I now need to watch it again!

Looks absolutely awful.

Standard American cliché sci-fi:

Trailer starts with major US city (New York?) being torn to shreds
Enemy is a physical "monster" (if it bleeds we can kill it)
Only the USA can save the world

Its got jet powered fists in it.

I cant imagine a single film now that wouldnt be improved by the inclusion of jet powered fists.

"were putting the apocalypse on hold"

Has the lad that plays Jax Teller in SOA, Charlie Hunnam. Seems a different turn for him. It looks an awful lot like it could be another transformers meh movie to me.

He also played Frodo's mate in Green Street, so anything would be a step up from that (apart from Green Street 2).

Transformers meets Godzilla. Hmmmm.

This 100%.
Shame they aren't having young Japanese school girls piloting the robots.

Reminds me of Battleship, very similar plot by the sounds of it, but I do like stuff like this so will watch it.
