Rewatching Pacific Rim

I still don’t understand why people insist on casting non-Australians as Australians when a) our accent seems to be almost impossible to mimic and b) there are so many, so very many Australians in Hollywood. And there’s a fricking movie studio in Sydney that is regularly used by blockbusters so it’s not like it’s hard to find us.

Also, while an Australian called ‘Herc’ strains credulity, one called ‘Chuck’ breaks it beyond fixing. He would be a Charlie. Let me tell you. Stop giving Australian characters stereotypically American names like Chuck or Hank 2K16.

Also Mako Mori remains utterly boss.
