I agree. Stompy fun! And Someone said it best else-forum:

Then the horns kicked in...
...and my shoes began to squeak.
The shot with the skeleton on the aircraft carrier, and the fact that one of the robots had 4 arms definitely gave off some Eva vibes.
Not that this makes me unhappy

"Today we are cancelling the Apocalypse!"
I just about busted a nut simply from that line. (Which reminds me, it'd be way cool to see The Salvation War made into a series of movies -- if only to hear the fundies scream bloody murder about them.)

Big Brother is watching you. And damn, you are so bloody BORING.
I will admit I geeked a little over the glad os dialogue. I hope that actually makes it into the movie.
I also note there was only one scene in the trailer with shaky-cam. I really hope thats true for the movie too.
For what it's worth, the Wikipedia article on GLaDOS states as confirmed that the voice actress, Ellen McLain, is voicing an AI in Pacific Rim -- not just the trailer.

And Del Toro confirmed it too. I believe it was in
this interview/trailer analysis somewhere.
