Pacific Rim was the biggest summer smash of this year, and Cherno Alpha Productions has taken it upon themselves to re-cut the film into a Pacific Rim parody romantic comedy trailer.
The film received a lot of attention for not having any romantic subplot between the male and female leads and for making female lead Mako Mori a well-developed character independent of her male counterpart. Cherno Alpha Productions and Tara Afshar have taken it upon themselves to remedy this apparant issue. The cute parody trailer features girly text and bubbly pop music as it turns Pacifc Rim into a story of romance between two soldiers blocked by Mori's disapproving father, Stacker Pentacost. This cute and funny Pacific Rim parody video is a great tongue-in-cheek joke about an action-packed movie.
