Basically, swap the two leads around where Mako is the main character so that her story plays out where she starts as a kid who watched her home get destroyed by the monsters, then rescued by Idris Elba, grows up to become his mentee and be the one to avenge the death of her mentor at the end.

After they broke it down like that, yeah I agree. That would have been badass.
It's crazy how little changes like that can really shift a narrative.

Pacific Rim was awesome. There'd have been no way to improve it.

Also, don't be a weeb.

Shit, man. Corniness can be great when embraced properly (which is how this film did it for the most part). It's the reason I enjoyed how gleefully stupid the OG Power Rangers series was.

No.
An even more cliched protagonist story line would not improve the movie.

move all remaining groundhog mercenaries to the front lines. Have sheep troopers squadrons A and B flank the cows. They're using DC-17 hoof blasters.

I actually agree, Mako was a more interesting character. It would've been better though if all the fights didn't take place at night or in a dark setting.

Pacific Rim is bad because it provides too much exposition and backstory to a story that should have very little.
