Here's the trailer for the new Guillermo del Toro directed giant robots vs monsters movie Pacific Rim. It is the greatest thing ever.

And yes, that is the GLaDOS voice from Portal. GdT apparently got special permission from Valve for that because he's a Portal fan.
 
Looks like a modern version of Ultra Man.

Definitely an influence. Lots of Neon Genesis Evangelion in there, too.
 
There's also blueprints for five of the 'jaegers.' It looks like different countries each build their own versions: the USA's Gipsy Danger, Russia's Cherno Alpha, China's Crimson Typhoon, Japan's Coyote Tango, and Australia's Striker Eureka.
 
IIRC, they have already approved the sequel and it won't hit theaters until this summer...
 
Giant robots fighting giant monsters? Awesome looking effects? Yes, I believe I'll be there. I believe I'll have to bring my 7 year old son as well.
