Off of the release of his new number one album Yeezus and the birth of his first child, Kanye West took time to see a pre-screening of the upcoming film Pacific Rim. Kanye gave the movie very high praise and to the director, Guillermo del Toro. Here is what he said:







It's important to note, that he didn't say this while Iron Man 3 or Man of Steel were not receiving an award. So it seems that Mr. West loved Pacific Rim, what are your thoughts? Do you think this film looks amazing or not? Comment below. Peace and remember...








When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity’s resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee — who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind’s last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

Did you really need to comment? Or did you comment as an excuse to insult the article?

Either way, made you click on it didn't it?

*Michael Bay starts tweeting*
*Gets a tweet from Kanye West*

"Sorry Michael Bay, but Pacific Rim is one of the greatest movies of all time" -Kayne West.

At least that's how I see it.

Kanye West is overated crap.

Hoping Pacific Rim is not cut from the same cloth.

What the GA is too ignorant to understand is that GDT doesn't make a bad film (achem Mimic... ok but studio meddling etc)...

This is probably (judging by his past record of marrying character development/interaction, narrative, visionary spectacle, heart & soul) going to be THE movie worth seeing this year...

Problem is most people are too ignorant to realise this and the box office will probably suffer accordingly.

@WorstUserNameEver I think the first weekend is going to suck, but if this movie is a good as Del Toro's rep, then most likely you'll see the numbers rise weekend after weekend.

Yeezus is crap but after giving me College Dropout, Late Registration, Graduation, 808s and My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy he can go ahead and make another crappy album for all I care.

The real question is what type of movies does he think are good in the first place?

I hope he's right about this movie - remember he told us he was an asshole on 'Get Em High',we didn't believe him now look...

This is pathetic.
No more articles on Kanye (dumbass) West or any "celebrity" who has no connection to a CBM property.

All jokes aside either way i can't wait for this movie! Del Toro is a great Film Maker. And hopefully we get to see Hellboy 3 Sooner than we think.

If we can have Obama's opinion on TDKR, Feige's opinion on MOS, post countless negative reviews on TDKR, MOS, IM3 and Avengers, why can't I post Kanye?

Lol you fruits.

My God many news sites have been reporting this and this site has been reporting Pacific Rim shit nonstop. Quit your whining and go buy some tampons.

On the subject of UGK, love them. Slightly prefer Outkast over them which is why my favorite UGK track is IPA. Still love them though & rest in peace Pimp C.
