I really liked the first one. Kind of surprised at the dislike. Much better treatment of the whole mecha/robot thing than what we usually get in America.
But maybe people dislike the genre.

Me too. Then again, I had zero expectation going in beyond awesome special effects sequences of giant robots fighting giant monsters. They could have removed all the filler/story in-between and I wouldn't have cared. My inner 12 year old came for the fight scenes and left a happy camper!

Can you point to something in the genre from the past 20 years that was better?

Not the point. If he's fine with the genre, there must be something in the genre better. Right?

keg in kc has done a pretty good job with the responses. I'll let his words stand for me, to this point.

The first one was fantastic to me. Hopefully this is just as good.

I was disappointed by the first one. Hopefully this one hits the mark.
