In "Ring One", the most popular appearance is the American Emperor's Mecha Dangerous Rover, which is the big guy who is most in line with everyone's traditional setting of Mecha. Symmetrical design, lines full of heavy feelings, energy reactor on the chest, bring the protagonist at a glance.

In comparison, the second part of the mecha is obviously reduced a lot. You know, mechanical feeling and heavy feeling are hormones for mecha fans. Why do you want to get rid of such a pleasing heavy mechanical design and choose a compact design instead? There should be two main reasons: changing directors and telling stories.

Let's talk about the first one, that is, changing directors. Guillermo del toro, the director of Huan Yi, is an out-and-out monster fan who is keen on designing and collecting all kinds of monsters, so that the pronunciation of "monster" in the movie is Kaiju in Japanese. As a monster fan, Guilmault's movies must be full of heavy feelings, from fist to body. Guilmault exaggerated the design of the mecha to 100 meter, that is, the height of skyscrapers, so in "Ring One", the mecha can wave a boat as a stick, and the mecha and skyscrapers generally walk through the city, and the famous jet boosts the "Tianma Meteor Boxing". The battle between monsters and mecha is full of power, which is also the place where Ring One attracts many people.

The director of "The Ring 2" became Steven S. DeKnight, that is, the director of "The Brave", and Guilmault took a back seat, so the design idea naturally changed a lot.

Say the second one, just to tell a story. Will soon return to the setting of the Pacific Rim. It is worth noting that "Ring One" only captures the best period of the American and Japanese mecha (that is, the dangerous rover) in "Chronicle of the Pacific Rim" (the dangerous rover successfully blew up the wormhole and the war clock went to zero), and during this period, the dangerous rover was the only three generations of mecha still in service. In the setting of the Pacific Rim, the higher the level of the mecha, the better the mobility.

Dangerous vagrants were dug up from the forgotten cemetery after the defeat of the Beckett brothers and put into use again. It became the only third-generation mecha still in service. Other mecha, such as China's Storm Latosuo (4th generation) and Australian Eureka Raider (5th generation), are much more mobile than dangerous tramps. For example, storm latosol can cause complex over-the-shoulder falls:

Level 5 eureka raiders can punch quickly with extreme agility.

The only mecha still in service, that is, Cherokee Alpha of the fighting nation, is still in service, thanks to its excellent defense ability and the attacking ability of the fighting nation from head to toe. It can be seen that Cherokee Alpha is heavier than dangerous wandering.

Going back to the trailer of "Ring 2", the mechs appearing in "Ring 2" are all at least level 5, and the main players are all level 6, that is, the body is basically the same size as the Eureka Raider, and the natural combat performance has increased a lot, but it has also brought a consequence that everyone is quite dissatisfied-the mechanical weight of the mechs has been lost.

The protagonist, the Avenger of Gypsy, retains most of the dangerous elements of the original Gypsy, such as the nuclear reactor on the chest, the gray-blue painting, the plasma electromagnetic gun and the chain sword. The number of nuclear reactors has become two, and the mobility has been greatly improved.

The other two mecha, Saber Athena of the swordsman, and Phoenix (the one who threw the hammer can be removed as an optional weapon), even the relatively heavy Phoenix Guardian design is very compact.

The most agile mecha, and also the first female mecha, Athena the swordsman can even do complex maneuvers.

On the other hand, since we want to tell a story, we have to answer a question, which is the second biggest concern of everyone:

2. Why are there monsters invading?

The story of Huan Yi blew up the crack in the wormhole with a dangerous wandering, interrupted the passage of the monster invasion, and ended the monster invasion. It is worth noting that the dangerous rover dragged the big Boss five-level monster through the wormhole identification and blew it up after entering the monster world, so the wreckage of the dangerous rover also stayed in the monster world. At the end of "Ring One", the director revealed that the monster has got the wreckage of the rover and mastered the mecha technology to make a comeback, so in "Ring Two" we will see the mecha-to-mecha. This is also confirmed in the trailer. In the lens of the first little girl Anguo, we can see the figure of a mecha flashing the color of the monster symbol-monster blue in the distance.

In addition to a flash close-up, the missile released by the monster mecha seems to have blown up a headquarters.

Out of the warehouse flashing monster blue mecha.

And this insect-like small mecha, it seems that there will be a gun battle scene of ground troops. Is it necessary to take care of a small ground force like Transformers?

The monster's re-invasion further contributed to the upgrade of the mecha. It can be seen that the heavy mechanical arm used to monitor the leg movements was removed from the control room of the mecha and changed into holographic projection electronic induction, which is convenient for the driver to make more flexible movements.

Like skipping rope

By the way, the cockpit director in "Ring One" really made a one-on-one cockpit for actors to enter, and the cockpit itself was very heavy, so the mecha driving in "Ring One" was full of power. The director also used a high-pressure water cannon to impact the actors, simulating the powerful momentum of the monster's attack. Actors hate this cockpit. But if these things are cancelled in Lord of the Rings 2, it can be said that a major feature of the film has been lost.

3. Why is there Jing Tian (heavy fog)?

This question is the most talked about by people after the publication of "Ring 2". As we all know, "Ring 2" has been skipped several times, because it costs too much money, and the performance of the first one is really poor. So Legendary Pictures has been planning to shelve this work. It was not until Wanda acquired Legendary Pictures that China Capital came in to make this film. Thanks to Wanda's father for seeing it. Everyone asked not to expect too much for the time being, and not to expect too much. .....

Finally, talk about several interesting scenes in the trailer.

In the trailer, four mechs are equipped with flying devices and have shots of flying in the air to perform tasks, and the first line in "Ring One" is:

"When I was a child, whenever I felt small or lonely, I would look up at the stars and wonder if there was life there. As a result, I completely misread the direction. "

When I was a child, whenever I felt small or lonely, I would look up at the stars. Wondering if there is life there. It turned out that I was looking in the wrong direction.

Eventually the war returned to Japan. The only thing in the trailer without the driver's shot is this mystery. At present, it has been confirmed that Rinko Kikuchi, who plays the first true son, will return. Officials say that true son was saved by the general and will appear as the protector of son of the general this time. It is indeed very appropriate to choose the Japanese whose generals saved Mako.

In addition, the female mecha swordsman Athena's grip on the sword is familiar.

The hero has decided not to return, and Mako is probably the driver of the swordsman Athena in the final war.

Bracer Phoenix also adopted the three-channel mode of Storm Red. Two people control the movement of the mecha, and one person specializes in controlling weapons, which is also the secret that it can throw a meteor hammer.

The name of the Wristguard Phoenix equipped with a hammer has changed, and it has become a Titan Redeemer. It seems that the Wristguard Phoenix can also be equipped with heavy machine guns.

You can also see the Gypsy Avengers fighting a mysterious black mecha in the trailer. According to the director's explanation, this mecha may be made by those monster admirers in the first film. In the first movie, various sub-cultures brought about by the appearance of monsters were displayed. They worship monsters and oppose killing them. At the same time, monsters also extended a series of prosperous black markets. These underground workers have mastered excellent monster knowledge, and the difference between the second part and the first part is ten years, which is enough for them to master the advanced technology of manufacturing mecha.

You know, there are many conflicts in the world. When this movie started, the disaster area in the first movie was still recovering, and there were Kaizhu worshippers we saw in the first movie. This is a criminal factor. You know, everyone is seeking to use the technology led by the Pan-Pacific Defence Corps. So there was some evil activity there-I can't say exactly what happened, but the other Jagger was quite bad.
