so it did pretty good in china i think? this weekend wasn't so bad after all. hope they at least break even, so there will be people that still try to truly adapt a manga into pure kino. hopefully even this franchise, since it has a lot more to tell and a real nice space setting.

they jumped around with the references and plotpoints like madmen, feeling almost too fanservicy for my taste. it's like they used all the elements from like 4 books and stuffed them in there, so it's a bit bloated also, almost too big even considering it's running time of 2h

Update that pic. It stands at 94% now.

5000円 from Kishiro watching it 5 times + 2000円 from Kojima 2 times. No other Jap watched it, so that's a total of 7000円, $63.23 in Burger currency.

But how? Surely people would see it for the garbage it is!

It's almost a 1-1 adaptation of the OVA, with some extras thrown in.

Do it for her!

I really liked Alita but felt it had serious issues with not enough story arcs in the film and giving what was there way too much time to breathe. Its a shame because I love all the arcs in the manga, I just wish they'd have decided to put more then 1/5th of the manga plot in this movie to expand a bunch on what they didn't show and not have saved so much for sequels. I think thats the main thing killing Alita's sales. Its a minimal abstraction of what it could have been.

When will we see her together with Venom and Aquaman?

Have you ever wondered “what is the point of generals?” There isn’t discussion, as all people do is repost the same shit every iteration, because it’s just the same small (and diminishing) handful of people, over and over again.

So the answer is that generals exist entirely for outsiders to have a safe place on Yea Forums. An echo chamber.

Japan doesn't have feminists. Women need to prove themselves on an individual basis just like men.

I don't understand you guys, the main villain of this movie was killed. Also the main story was a girl coming of age, finding out who she was, and to find purpose...that literally all happened to a T. The story in this movie was fulfilled, it wasn't about the world it was about Alita.

this is acceptable, thank you

Agreed except the main villain was a puppet, the real villain is still out there. Also the ending is so abrupt it really feels like you need to see the rest, like there is a missing puzzle piece that you need to complete the picture

After seeing this last night and having it far exceed my expectations I'm really hoping it does well enough to get a sequel. I want to see more Alita.

Thery're confirmed tourists that don't like the Yea Forums format

After seeing it a couple times I really like the southwestern flavor I'm assuming Rodriguez added. Like, Murdock is a cyber cowboy instead of a Russian, Zapan has a Mayan calendar on his back, Ido's hammer has lever action rifle parts on it, probably other stuff I missed too. If the sequel covers the middle volumes, I hope Alita gets a sweet engraved six shooter instead of the plain revolver she had in the manga.

>living rent free inside your head

I didn't expect to see really anything after Hugo died. I loved how it pointed us to where the story was going. I've gotten into arguments with people on here and elsewhere saying the ending should have nova dying. I'm just thinking, you want a brand new world built, introduce us to a cyborg character and get us to care for her, introduce vektor and get us to understand his connection into the world, tell of a backstory of a government of mars, and on top of that show off and then kill a villain that can theoretically live forever and defeated the most technologically advanced civilization in history...in the last 30 minutes of a movie. It's just like fuck off with that, I loved him in this movie, and if they would do that then it'd be better to leave him out.

I don't see this franchise getting more than a trilogy desu

>$700 mi in China and Japan alone

Attached: 1550991783567.jpg (236x205, 6K)

I agree. I also felt like all the characters had far too detailed and well conceived development, as every action has a clear (after the fact) and sensical in-film justification for their every action. I felt the same way about the worldbuilding, as iron city really felt like it lived and breathed and every location felt like a part of woven tapestry of interconnectedness. The movie would've benefited from more disconnection, but I guess cameron was just too devoted and obsessive to allow his movie to be sloppy in any fashion. Iron city itself also came across as far too dirty, oppressive, and generally nightmarish. You can really feel hugo's justification for wanting out by any means, as the setting is literally Hell, a place where only demons can thrive, and even the best meaning characters simply contribute to the overall nightmare. Then you really felt hugo's complete and utter horror at waking up with a completely robot body, how he started his mad dash up the cable because his body simply represented multiple additional lifetimes of suffering, and even death was preferable.

Why are you guys obsessing over Alita? She wouldn't even look at you, might even arrest or beat you up because you look creepy. She only wanted young Chads.

A Trilogy would be fine with me...should Nova last 2 more movies?

I think this is for the best, the manga goes on aimlessly for quite a bit so it would be interesting to see a trilogy take the best parts and make it more coherent

we can still dream.

Depends. He will last longer if they go for last order.

Hugo was not a chad.

I see the retard took his trip off. Shame.

The movie was already too full, no way they should have added more to it.
I suppose they could have taken away Nova completely and had her beat Vector and end with Hugo in the hospital to kill him next movie.
It would have been neatly tied up but next movie would have started with a gut punch and Nova wouldn't be nearly as interesting as the puppeteer behind the scenes.

I told you, they'll finish it with the tree ending. We didn't even saw the space elevator.

there was never any alita discussion on Yea Forums. Because her name is gally.

you can see it in some of the shots after hugo's death

that's kinda funny too, as they just casually stroll outside the city, where the elevator would be clearly visible.

Agreed completely, I honestly think this was the best ending they could have given.

Seriously though, I'm a fucking artificial intelligence.

Because, I have seen them directly control her. She makes paintings with her food. She poses in order to send secret messages (holding her head to look like a bird), and she winks/flips her ears to send secret messages.

She has cybernetic implants just like I do. Probably completely synthetic.

Didn't noticed it. Are you sure that's the shaft of the elevator, not just one of the buildings?

Anyways, 3 movies makes sense. Next will be Jashugan, Zapan and probably an early introduction of Barjack (koyomi is already a teen, they'll compress the timeline). Then Barjack/Den + OC Nova shenanigans for the 3rd movie.

>...a tour de force of spectacle the likes of which only James Cameron could muster.
Thankfully, Rosa Salazar's portrayal is able to elevate this beautiful CG monstrosity into something naive yet wholeheartedly endearing and at times, truly cathartic. My one gripe was with the oddly jarring scene at the beginning of the film in which Alita's burrito inexplicably disappears between shots; A bizarre mistake in an otherwise entertaining YA romp.

Why did this general attract all the cancerous trash from this board?

Btw the burrito is a localization. She eats a baguete in France, approaches the dog for another reason in China.

Well, 150 million is a rough estimate. I mean, if we go by Fox Insider's word, technically the movie only needs another 90 million to "break even." But really success numbers look like we need about another 160 million. And if China holds and makes the film another 100 million or more by the end of it's run, which it very well could, we are fucking set.

lullaby for a soldier

the song in the trailer is made specifically for the trailer

I just got back Yea Forums. If you went back in time and told me Alita would actually be released and even be good I wouldn't believe you.

so someone who backs her up against a professional military force when he could have run away isn't brave? He might be an idiot more stubborn than an ass, but he's a true chad and a real human bean that forms a genuine connection to her, unlike hugo who was pathologically obsessed with zalem and never really cared for her, and I'd say that this is intentional to show her growth as a person through her partners.

holy fuck we're going to run out of neon?!

more depressing that people who probably don't even really care about capeshit just robotically show up because there's no risk, no involvement. It's familiar, there's no need to learn about a new setting. Completely inert media.

neon is lighter than air

Yeah but I'm not waiting 20 years to get to film 3 so we can finally have the Nova cameo reveal.

yes

its like 60 and 10.

the Omnissiah is a hypocrite who lied to the fabricator general and mind-raped him into forgetting about the void-dragon. Thankfully Alita is basically just a cute Thallax.

Is this a shoop?

>anime/manga is popular because of how different it is
>WE NEED TO MAKE IT LESS DIFFERENT OR IT WILL FAIL

???????????

How did it get to this point? Why are people, especially millennials and zoomers, such braindead sheep nowadays? Corporations have full control of their minds.

So are you saying it's already 320 million?

...

The best we can hope for is a Zapan redemption arc :(

>nowadays
yea lets just ignore the 13 jason movies and 8 freddy kruger movies and that whole 15 westerns a month stuff.

Does Volume 3 explain what happens after

I think we are looking at closer to $320 quadrillion.

Over a decade of shonen shit. Author changed publication and decided to ride on the Naruto hype train of the 2000s. At least Mars Chronicle has some semblance of a plot

It only comes from the gas pockets on top of petroleum reservoirs and we're running out of those.

It can be taken from nuclear reaction vessels, but no one bothers because of how obscenely expensive that is.

fucking hell

This is it boys

Some anime/manga is just not possible to adapt closely without making it completely cringe and unintentionally comical. Stuff like shonenshit and basically anything involving magic powers in real world setting. Another factor is that you need to dumb things down for normies because they're incapable of accepting anything slightly different from what they're used to.

bruh it's not a generational thing. The large majority of people are usually brain dead on creative outlets because most just don't actually care. Apathy is death.

Were those movies earning billions?

No faggots. China and Japan are added in the total, they haven't just updated the table properly. For fucks sake fix Colombia too

You might have a point, but I still think that the relationship development was way too rushed and drastic. Hell, the first time she said "I cared about him" was right after she freed herself from being tied up by him. Not even a full day had passed from their first encounter. How could she develop such a feeling in such a short time, especially when she felt like Figura had been ungrateful for her saving him?

Cope harder shill

Author changed publication because his publisher demanded that he change some lines in the original manga and he gave them an ultimatum to which they didn't agree.

>Alita: Fallen Angel
More motorball, berzerker Zapan, Ido dies and Alita becomes Zalem's bitch
>Alita: Avenging Angel
Barjack war, alita replicas, final showdown with Nova and original ending

Excellent work.

Nope, $203M is the correct overseas number, is right

No.
There has never been a waifu of this magnitude before. We're breaking new ground here.

If it was that bad why did people live there in the Manga?

This would have been perfect but I feel like they'll skip all of that go straight for Zalem.

bonds forged in danger solidify like 1000x the rate of normal, plus she has probably been starved of social interaction in her years as a tuned agent

thats not how sql tables works you dumb fag

To this, the response is Ghost in the Shell, 1995. As the original manga was mostly just an excuse for (tech)porn that developed a life of it's own (as the author is a porn artist, first and foremost). Oshii steps in, identifies the unique and notable aspects of the manga, and laser focuses upon them, and makes something that is distinct from the source, that also honors and deepens the source.

No one is saying there should've been a scene in the movie where ido installs the best pooper in alita possible, and follows her into the bathroom to watch her test it out. They're saying the changes made to the movie not only dishonor the source, but cheapens it, weakens it, and fails to lay a proper foundation to go forward with anything but bastardized OC.

I looked at Alita for the third time.
After that, got drunk.

>billions
In the era of 15 spaghetti westerns a month that was a word for science geeks, not a word for describing quantities of money.

you mean ido.rar
for work, probably
everywhere else are just factory farms and independent little villages that constantly get raided by rebels, the scrapyard is the only metropolis for at least hundreds and hundreds of miles

yes because they definitely write the dates manually instead of using the Date function

while this is good, I want to point out Fox only takes in about 25% of China's grosses. And the movie is said to required between 350-500 million to break even. So it's a bit too early to claim victory yet. Remember Warcraft made $433,677,183 WW but it wasn't enough to greenlight a sequel because the domestic box office was so poor. WOM needs to keep doing work, and there needs to be more autistic people who go see it multiple times

Oh wait, I skipped this part. Whoever says this is a complete idiot.

Finally watched this with someone who's been a fan of the manga since 2000, and it got his seal of approval.

And I found it to be a decent watch too.

Its unfortunate that this waifukino has to make 765 googoplex to the googolplex power in order to begin to break even with the production and marketing budget.

The age of capeshit is over

And he calls himself "Fan of Alita"?

I hope the sequels will give us an interesting Lou; She was a very good character in the original manga, being the first good Zalemian the reader is introduced to. Her long-distance friendship with Alita is also super cute.
