Taurus: “This is a battle, a war, and the casualties could be your hearts and souls.”
Gemini: “That you are here - that life exists, and identity; that the powerful play goes on and you may contribute a verse. That the powerful play *goes on* and you may contribute a verse. What will your verse be?”
Cancer: “Poetry, beauty, romance, love… these are the things we stay alive for.”
Leo: “Boys, you must strive to find your own voice. Because the longer you wait to begin, the less likely you are to find it at all. Thoreau said, “Most men lead lives of quiet desperation.” Don’t be resigned to that. Break out!“
Virgo: “Seize the day. Because, believe it or not, each and every one of us in this room is one day going to stop breathing, turn cold and die.”
Libra: “We all have a great need for acceptance, but you must trust that your beliefs are unique, your own.”
Scorpio: “We don’t read and write poetry because it’s cute. We read and write poetry because we are members of the human race. And the human race is filled with passion.”
Sagittarius: “Listen, you hear it? - - Carpe - - hear it? - - Carpe, carpe diem, seize the day boys, make your lives extraordinary.”
Capricorn: “I stand upon my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things in a different way.”

i took a few notes from guillermo del toro’s commentary on pacific rim:
- gypsy danger was designed to look like a machine from ww2 and to have the gait of a “gunslinger”
- he talks a lot about how in movies “form is content” and that he designs not for “eye candy, but for eye protein”; narrative is submerged in the audiovisual details and the details are everywhere in pacific rim
- he is constantly juxtaposing massive elements w small details for scale; like a giant battle and a little red shoe, to contribute to the sense of “awe and majesty”
- the movie deals w types “the pilot…the scientist” so the characters had to be textured w minimal gestures; mako and raleigh (two of the main characters) have some of the fewest lines in the film
- ww2 aesthetics; bomb refuge, overalls, working for rations were all incorporated
- not a movie about one hero but a composite of humanity; the world saving the world; a movie about togetherness, connecting, and trust
- Mako is coded blue bc of her origins in the kaiju; blue stains her heart and her hair
- every character has to learn to trust all the others
- all the characters get a Hero Moment
- re: the fighting stick scene; “if this was a 19th century movie they would be dancing the waltz”
- the little red shoe is the absolute heart of the movie
- quiet power is still power; mako as a strong character w quiet determination
- the Russian jaeger team are so hard-core they have no escape pod
- some of the Battle of Hong Kong was done in miniatures and models not just cgi
- “This film is the most controlled joyful exercise in image creation of my life”
- one of guillermo’s fave moments is when newt and hermann drift
- “No one carries the suit like idris elba”
- “No matter how many times you drift with someone you still have to say I love you”
- structured the three fights for raleigh as; losing a partner; gaining a partner; saving a partner (”it won’t happen to [him] again”)
- it was important to guillermo that the humans saved the world, not machines or ballistic power; humanity.
