Any actor I admire and enjoy working with - Sergi Lopez as the bad guy in 'Pan's Labyrinth,' or the little girl who played young Mako in 'Pacific Rim,' it makes no difference - I like actors with a very strong centre.

Some eco groups suggest that as many as 73 million sharks are killed globally every year. Hammerheads, blue sharks, mako sharks - they're disappearing, and they ain't coming back.

Stacker Pentecost: Mr. Becket, this is Mako Mori. One of our brightest. Also in charge of the Mark 3 restoration program. She personally handpicked your co-pilot candidates.
Mako Mori: [speaks Japanese to Pentecost] I imagined him differently.
Raleigh Becket: Hey.
[speaks Japanese]
Raleigh Becket:

Better or worse?
Mako Mori: [speaks Japanese] I apologize, Mr. Becket. I've heard a lot about you.

Stacker Pentecost: Do not let my calm demeanor fool you, *RANGER*! Now is not a good moment for your insubordination! Mako is too inexperienced to reign in her memories during combat.
Raleigh Becket: That's not why you grounded her. I was in her memories. I saw everything.
Stacker Pentecost: I don't care what you think you saw.

[Cut to scene of Mako's memory of being rescued as a child by Pentecost]
Raleigh Becket: I know what she means to you. I saw it, I-
[Pentecost turns and leaves the room]
Raleigh Becket: Hey. Hey!
[Raleigh follows him]
Stacker Pentecost: This conversation is over.
Raleigh Becket:

Marshall. Marshall! Can we just talk about this for one second?
[Grabs Pentecost's arm from behind. Pentecost pulls his arm away as he turns to Becket]
Raleigh Becket: You rescued her. You raised her. But, you're not protecting her now. You are holding her back.
Stacker Pentecost: One: Don't you ever touch me again. Two: Don't you ever touch

me again. Now. You have no idea who the Hell I am or where I've come from. And I am not about to tell you my whole life story. All I need to be to you and everybody else on this dump is a fixed point. The last man standing. I do not need your sympathy or your admiration. All I need is your compliance and your fighting skills. And if I can't get that, then you can go back to the wall I found you

crawling on. Do I make myself clear?
[Becket nods in resignation. Pentecost turns his head toward him and points to his ear]
Raleigh Becket: Yes, sir.
Stacker Pentecost: Good.

Russell Franklin: So here's the riddle. What does an eight thousand pound mako shark with a brain the size of a flat head V8 engine and no natural predators think about?
Carter Blake: Well, I'm not waiting around here to find out!

Carter Blake: That's the answer to the riddle. Because that's what an 8000 pound mako thinks about. About freedom. About the deep blue sea.
