When it comes to science fiction, it may be strange but I’m more of a sci-fi viewer than reader. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy reading sci-fi thrillers. I just enjoy watching the movies or TV shows more. Not sure why.
With that in mind, I’m delighted today to be able to host a PartnersHub Family giveaway for a sci-fi adventure on Blu-ray that hits the stores this week. For the giveaway details, please see the end of the post. About Pacific Rim …
Go BIG or go EXTINCT!
Directed by Guillermo del Toro, PACIFIC RIM is an epic science fiction film set in the 2020s. Earth is at war with Kaijus; colossal monsters from an inter-dimensional gateway on the Pacific Ocean floor. Humanity unites to fight these huge monsters by creating the Jaegers: gigantic humanoid robots that are controlled by two pilots whose minds and memories are linked.
The story takes place in the later days of the war, following Raleigh Becket, a former Jaeger pilot called out of retirement and paired up with newbie pilot Mako Mori in a final effort to defeat the Kaijus!
PACIFIC RIM is slated to be released on Blu-ray and DVD on Tuesday, Oct. 15. You can have fun now with the Pacific Rim Blog App.

ReplyDeleteAlex, I thought about you when I was reading this information. I thought this might be something you'd be anxious to have a copy of. Have fun viewing.
DeleteMason - This is a generous giveaway. I'm not myself a sci-fi fan, but I agree completely that stories like this are so powerful on film/television. Thanks for sharing with us.
ReplyDeleteI also think sci-fi is better on the big screen (or DVD). I think it is hard to visualize the drama from the printed page, and the impact is greater in a movie.
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my blog today. Enjoy your week.
Great giveaway, Mason. I'm a fan of Idris and Charlie, so I'm looking forward to seeing "Pacific Rim."
ReplyDeleteThis would be something my guys would probably watch. Thanks for offering this giveaway.
