At this year's Consumer Electronics Show acclaimed director, producer and writer Guillermo del Toro joined Qualcomm® Chairman and CEO Paul Jacobs on stage to talk about advancements in cinema technology, and he gave us a sneak peak at an early trailer for this summer's must-see blockbuster, Pacific Rim, coming July 12.

As they say in the movie business, it was the beginning of a beautiful friendship, and it has led to an exciting relationship with Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures. Snapdragon mobile processors power the biggest stars of the futuristic Pacific Rim, the colossally sized Jaeger robots that battle invading alien monsters.

You can help the crusade and be immersed into the Pacific Rim world by joining the Snapdragon Jaeger program on the Snapdragon Facebook page. Take the Jaeger Pilot Aptitude test to see if you have the speed, endurance and visual acuity required to pilot Snapdragon powered bad-ass Jaeger robots.

Even if your pilot skills are less than Snapdragon stellar, you'll still have the chance to win a real world device powered by the Snapdragon 600 mobile processor—the Samsung GALAXY S4—and be entered to win a trip to Los Angeles for the premiere of the film.

We also had the pleasure of welcoming del Toro to the Snapdragon Lounge at the Electronics Entertainment Expo (or E3) today where he introduced exclusive content from the film for the first time:
