Wow, out of theaters entirely there? Or just IMAX? Also, depends on the theater chain, cause AMC dumps movies rather quickly, so that's not uncommon. But any other chain, that suspicious. I know Captain Marvel is strongholding theaters next weekend.
intention is irrelevant to the end result. The early trailers showed their (laughably bad) attempts at photorealism and they stylized it to counter audience revulsion. Then end product is clearly CGI and making no attempt to be realistic, in order to avoid uncanny valley.
And we can stop this right now, as every time you're faced with facts you can't refute, you'll just go "well I liked it."

It's truly a wonderful planet. It's been at war with itself for centuries. There are space nazis there, but they're just a front for an evil mastermind and his group of undead Panzerkunst masters. The rightful queen of Mars is a ventriloquist teenager with a teddy bear. She has an invincible bodyguard, who is a black female cyborg with a crush on Alita. Mars is much more normal than Venus and Jupiter, though.

Michael Ramirez
Eariler trailer was an unfinished product that were pushed out due to rush marketing. It was clear that Alita was not ready by that point but the deal with Disney was approaching so Fox pushed it out. Later on when the deal with Disney was delayed by Brazil hold-up that Jim was able to tell them to move back the release date so that CG work can continue.
The end product is not CGI no matter how many time you said it. The overhwelming audience and critics agree on this point about the visual. You are one of the few people having issues with it, probably because you watched shitty camrip.

Cooper Stewart
Again, the first trailer showed what they hoped would be in the movie, and then the audience reaction was resoundingly negative, so they spent six months modifying the design to something less horrifying.
Then audience reaction to the movie was basically non-existent. As it did sell millions of tickets, but only a tiny minority felt strongly enough about it to rate it on RT.
Leo Price
don't reply to the retards
Wyatt Campbell
the closest theater to me is a small non chain place with 4 screens, I never bothered checking if they had alita but they don't have it now. the next closest place only has imax screens and it went out yesterday. That's where I usually go even though the tickets are stupidly expensive. AMC and regal are downtown and who wants to deal with that.

Alright, can you regular posters stop engaging in passive aggressive arguments with tourists obviously hogging with no good intentions? Discussion is fine, but keep the threads comfy and fun.
Trailer was unfinished. You can clearly see the difference with subsequent trailers. They changed the eyes which recieve good responds from the audicences. Again your point about bad movie CGI proves that you have not watched it legally.
>Movie sells millions of tickets >Audience reation to the movie was basically non-exsistent That is a contradiction. Plus, you are looking it through the lens of American. The rest of the world did have strong reaction. Places like France and China proved you wrong.
But once again, box office number does not means the movie is good or bad. I hope you don’t go through with this line of arguement, otherwise, it will expose you to be not from Yea Forums
Daniel Bailey
Venusians are definitely the most fucked up of the bunch..
why are you pretending to know nothing about movie production? They identify trailer friendly parts for the movie and finish them first. So the design shown in the trailer was "finished." Hence the six month delay so they could rework it after audiences absolutely hated it.
The rest of your post is just a laughable quibble to try to obscure the fact most people who saw the movie didn't feel strongly enough about it to rate it. also 7.6 on imdb is utterly pathetic. Even transformers movies have higher than that.
Thomas Parker
These fags are probably samefagging the trash conversations. they've been called out
Pretty sure I'm going to go catch it a 4th time this weekend. I've only seen 3d so far. I love the depth on the big screen. Should I see it in standard the 4th time or just go all out and stay on the 3dkino train?
Early trailer is not representative of the movie, especially when subsequent trailers have noticeable improvements. I can’t believe you claimed to have been on Yea Forums for so long yet so clueless about film development process.
There are 2 shitposters and 1 doom poster that are regularly in /abag/. The one complaining about the CGI right now is probably the person posting screen shots from normie websites pretended to be a detective.
Any other Romantic Action film like Alita besides Drive and BR2049?
Caleb Edwards
Keep ignoring your original critism about the movie’s CGI, saying it’s not photoreal while using the first trailer as argument. I have responded to all your points, even exposed that you did not watch the movie legally to warrant true criticism on it. What say you?
>seeing movies multiple times in theaters when did this become a thing? nobody did this when I was growing up and back then almost everyone went to movies
Matthew Green
Imagine being Hugo and the movie just glosses over your body horror so you can get the Shrek ending with Alita and then you die again
Is it autism? Shizoid dishonestposter moved from BRAP2049 to /GABA/gool? Perhaps it's just another alita shill falseflagging as hater for replies and trying to stoke an imaginary fanbase war? This guy is here every day, every thread, posting for hours. That's some dedication.
Samuel Gomez
You literally seem completely unable to read.
Your argument originally was that it was photoreal, it wasn't. The initial trailer was finished scenes that were intended to be photoreal, they weren't and audience reaction was utter revulsion. They spent six months trying to get the design to not horrify the audience, by making ti less real, but audience reaction is now just apathy.
These are all facts. Nothing will change them.

Back from my second viewing, even better than the first
the movie doesn't seem to get across the idea that people value their humanity. Because it was made with the mindset of "why wouldn't people want augmentation?"

Praise the lord, for Alita has healed me twice now Chiren having a brain still grinds my gears though
source: the fact the movie sold a lot more than 15k tickets. so unless you're going to seriously try to argue those 15k positive reviews were from people bought hundreds, if not thousands of tickets each, then the fact remains that audience reaction was apathetic.
less than 8 on imdb is not a respectable score.
Joshua Reyes
saw it in reald 3d shit first and then IMAX 3D. Much better with IMAX . Almost like a diferent movie. Gonna see it in 4DX tomorrow the third time.
Jaxson Hernandez
patience, based boatman will explain everything in due time
The movie is photoreal. It is fact. The final design is photoreal, if it were to be less real, the uncanny valley will become more apparent. Why are you arguing against logic.
>photoreal Man did you see this in a Dolby Cinema? Maybe wait to see it in 4K OLED before you say something like that. In Dolby Vision Alita is real af.
Theaters improved in quality, especially when people stopped going to theaters altogether after the turn of the century. That's when they busted out with premium screens, 70mm IMAX that wasn't just in museums, recliner chairs, 3D, not to mention stadium seating and digital. Analog film reels would actually degrade in quality after a couple weeks. Not digital. It's just as good as release day.
Gavin Bennett
just came back from my 2nd viewing. what I didn't notice at all the 1st time is how much alita's character changed when being transfered to her berserker body. she stopped acting like a carefree, playful teenager and turned into an adult woman that meant business. I loved that change.
>audience reaction was utter revulsion [citation needed] Where's the first trailer anyway? Can't find it on Fox's channel anymore. Was it deleted/unlisted?
Connor Brooks
The manga goes for a different angle - he can't handle it, goes crazy, that's why he ends up climbing up the pipe

you kinda forget Alita is not real after a few minutes. It's really good. They put a lot of asymmetries and imperfections that makes her very human and really cute
Dylan Perez
1st: review counts are more >20k 2nd: no film will have all the people watched it reviewed it on RT. You can’t make a conclusion that only a tiny group of people like it. 3rd: Cinema score is another metric to gauge audience’s reaction and it is good. 4th: 7.6 is a respectable score in IMDB for an action blockbuster. 5th: stop saying your opinion as fact.
Easton Wilson

You only need to cite what isn't self-evident. The fact they delayed the movie six months to rework the design is proof of the fact audience reaction to the first alita design was resoundingly negative.

it's covered in a biotechnological membrane that keeps the atmosphere in, this is maintained by a neutral priesthood that sacrifice themselves as pillars to uphold it the planet has orbital sun mirrors to warm up the surface, but they ran out of resources during the making of so the lords have to barter with each other for solar irradiation rights, winters are like -50 C if you don't have any mirrors the planet is extremely german, but not like nazi or prussian german, more 1600's germany with a million little princes everywhere, also references to hegel, nietzsche, kafka, von clauswitz, jung, etc there are several genetically locked giant mecha called the ethnarchs in ownership by the major lords, during the story one is made to run rampant and it kills like 3 million people
it's generally a shithole and filled with war crimes
Photorealistic CGI is CGI. I don’t understand your point at all.
Parker Cruz
It was negative because of eyes and it doesn't matter how much they improve them, it would still weird out the average normie when they see her for the first time. That said, aside from her eyes, which you get used to after couple of minutes, the rest of her looks photorealistic.

He just doesn't care about the suffering he inflicts, he understands it very well. He might not be evil evil, but he's completely ruthless. At least his main goal is somewhat noble.

is there alita toys or just those statuettes? just ordered the mangas and an alita shirt, can't wait to rock it.
he made a lot of changes to the OVA with respect to the fact it would be a one-off. Nova isn't in the OVA, nor is makaku, and even zapan got dropped. Basically everyone with a story that would go beyond the second volume of the manga was changed into a different character.

Not alot going well in my life right now but had been waiting a long time for this movie. I think I unwillingly put too much hope into Alita being great but there wasn't much else for me.
I've seen the movie three times now and it never fails to make me happy. And ever since the first viewing, things around me have been seemingly getting better and I've been less stressed out at work. Thank you Alita for saving me too
so your attempt to counter the statement that kishiro changed things and dropped characters/themes/arcs for the OVA is to say that kishirio changed things and dropped characters/themes/arcs for the OVA...

when did i say it's the biggest weekend for alita? i thought the theatre would be packed since its friday, i went to the first evening show and since yesterday there is only one room for alita, but nope, there were like 8 people in total. a shitload of people went to see the dragonball super movie, no kidding
Jacob Gray
He's literally Lucipher in both the movie and the manga. In the movie, he learns people's wishes by looking through their eyes and deceives them to enact his will on the world. In the manga, he tests people's resolve to overcome their hubris by granting them their wishes in a perverse way (think temptation of Christ). Alita is basically Jesus because she follows the Logos. She speaks the truth regardless of consequences, while Nova obscures and perverts it. This attitude towards truth is even expressed in both characters' eyes. Alita has those wide eyes to indicate that she seeks truth, while Nova obscures his eyes with a visor with those tiny eyes to indicate that he's focused on achieving his own goals by manipulating other people and doesn't really care about truth. It's also worth noting that as Alita learns more about herself and the world, she becomes more competent and more responsible.
The manga, the OAV, and the movie tell the same basic story in different ways, which is why only brainlets reeee about changes to the plot.
Is that really so different than a thumbs up and a thumbs down system?
It makes sense for a voter to vote at the extremes because statistically it gives your vote more weight. If a movie you think is a 6/10 has an 8.3/10 with 1000 votes and you vote a 0 then that 0 vote has almost as much weight over the outcome as if four other people other voted a 6 alongside you. It's really just a weakness with voting systems that go beyond a binary positive and negative system. Any vote other than 10 or 0 is making your vote count for less.
Evan Clark
the argument being presented to you is he made a change to the OVA so that future arcs of the manga wouldn't be spoiled. There was no time to have anyone even react to the chip, so showing it would've just spoiled the manga for no purpose. So chiren had a brain, and the OVA is considered an entirely different canon from the manga.
Bentley Cook
>Lucipher your ESL is showing.

You know if the movie looked like this and was produced by pixar or dreamworks it probably would have done better financially.
