You already have one of those, and even it stretches the term "mech".

You can really see where the money went, though. The animation was beautiful. Even if the storyline wasn't great, from a technical perspective the movie was awesome.

the only way a robot war would happen is if I would make a mech that reached the sky limit.

I had no idea it cost that much. I thought the only movie that cost that much to make was The Hobbit.

Anyway, what of the city? Is it an idea with merit?

I don't know if it was really that much, but it was a @#$% ton. I read some articles about it before it came out, and that was mostly what they were about.

Okay, reply to the off topic part of my post but ignore the on topic part. No matter.

Yes, I suppose it would've been quite expensive, but it is a beautiful movie.

Got it in one. ^-^ Yeah, it wasn't great from a story perspective, but if you're looking for photo-realistic aliens, it was great.
