Regularly labeled as one of the busiest men in Hollywood, Guillermo del Toro is attached to direct not one, but all of the aforementioned pictures. While the probability that all will come to fruition is minimal, a critically and financially successful Pacific Rim greatly increases their likelihood. del Toro proved himself to be a truly visionary director with Pan's Labyrinth in 2006, and I believe visionary directors deserve the artistic freedom to create movies any way they please (not the way the studio elite dictate cough The Hobbit cough). A successful Pacific Rim would allow del Toro the ability to develop his passion projects, and for that reason alone, I'm hopeful del Toro will deliver an imaginative, crowd-pleasing adventure.
