Folks, fellow Rangers ... WTF is this crap: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVpQmZmKNmo You have got to be kidding! This is a Pacific Rim rip-off all the way! Should Del Toro and WB sue this blatant abomination to the genre of giant monsters?! And that iguana that attacks the Statue of Liberty is a joke ... plain and simple. Lets see what happens if we send Kaiju against the pet lizards of Atlantic Rim! Lynx Foxtrot out

In a way it is a cheap rip off, But, if i'm correct it came out a few years before pacific rim... same concept-ish... but pacific rim was actually studio funded and not cheesy...

Life cannot be contained, it breaks walls, crashes through barriers sometimes painfully, but uh... Life uh, finds a way

Actually Atlantic Rim was released on July 9,2013. A few days before Pacific Rim.

Most of those guys' movies are rip-offs / parodies, so yeah.

That's what The Asylum does; blatant rip offs. They rush the movies out as quick as they can to try and capitalize off of its success. Look up Transmorphers, or Paranormal Entity, for more examples. Pretty sure they had to change the title, though. I believe it's "Attack from Beneath" now, or "From The Sea"...something like that, and the movie is horrible, even by Asylum's standards. It's very much an unfinished film.

I'm surprised no studio has sued them for making rip off movies.
