Brendan: Idris Elba is aggressively quick in changing his mind to let Mako be the co-pilot. He’s like, “No you can’t! Oh, I have a nosebleed. You know life is short, go ahead.”
Diana: There is a deleted scene that I think was in between there about his realization.
Andrew: Oh really?
Diana: Also in the deleted scene he’s shirtless so that’s the real crime against humanity.
Andrew: What? There was a shirtless Idris Elba scene?
Diana: There is a cut, shirtless Idris Elba scene!
Brendan: Yeah he’s cut! (Get it?)
Diana: I do! But yes, he’s shirtless and it shows he has the same burn marks as Raleigh because he piloted a jaeger alone, but they cut it and I’m like, you fools. This would have made $100 million dollars more.
Andrew: You’re goddamn right it would have! That is shocking and disappointing.
