Pacific Rim ~ K-Day: Trespasser in the Fog.
First off, I loved Pacific Rim, and thought it was a welcome relief to the movies we see today, and I give it an A+. However, I found the trailer slightly misleading, and the first few minutes as a whole rather disappointing. The sequence with the first kaiju destroying the Golden Gate Bridge was the money shot for me, and I thought we were going to get a 10-20 minute Kaiju-attack prologue, a whole-lot of city-destroying epicness, and not the ridiculously short 3 minute prologue montage featured with only the golden gate bridge scene and brief one-second images of San Francisco's destruction (for friggs sake Trespasser didn't even have the same horrifying monstrous roar in the first trailer when we saw the scene in the movie, and that irked me).
In this fanfic, I want to add and expand upon K-Day, the events in the Bay area, and my own characters story. I've also taken the liberty of modifying the official stats of the story and the kaiju Trespasser (which do not make sense in comparison to the Golden Gate, even though physics in this movie are really out the window). Trespasser will be between 360-390 feet in height (determined in the story somewhere), and his path of destruction will be vast in comparison to both the movie and the comic. He will also retain his original roar as seen in the very first trailer instead of the weak metallic version in the movie. Trespasser was the first Kaiju to attack humanity, and the only one to cause the extent of damage and destruction probably only rivaled by Onibaba in Tokyo. I think Trespasser deserved far more screen time just to showcase the terror and immensity these kaiju could bring about, and I think this was a wasted sequence, quite frankly, however much I applaud the movie as a whole. All original elements belong to the makers of Pacific Rim, with creative elements by myself.
Synopsis-Seventeen year old James Ukeriah and his friends from Santa Rosa High School go on a Saturday field trip with his class to the science center in San Francisco. Needless to say, this fieldtrip takes a turn for the worst when a certain axe-headed kaiju arrives in the Bay Area. They will have to try and avoid its rampage and get back home, and the journey will be far from easy or forgiving.
