When you release a film where giant human-piloted robots take on skyscraper-sized monsters from the deep your promo needs to be suitably epic.
The trailers and posters we’ve seen so far for Guillermo del Toro‘s Pacific Rim have fit the bill nicely, but now a truly enormous banner poster has been released – so big it can barely fit on screen.
For use in cinemas, this “Super Banner” is a whopping 14543 x 1024 pixels – that’s eight HD TV’s wide! It depicts Jaegers (us) battling Kaiju (them) in the pouring rain, while the sea parts, motorways shatter and buildings crumble.
Crimson Typhoon, the Chinese Jaeger, looks particularly impressive with its spinning claws. The Aussie Jaeger, Striker Eureka, is also seen being launched from a large fortress-like building.
The entire banner can be viewed by clicking on the thumbnail below. We’ve also cut out the best bits so you can get a closer look at the action.
Pacific Rim stomps into Kiwi cinemas on 11 July – one day ahead of the US.
