First viewing I thought it was a pretty sweet scene. Second viewing, knowing what was coming, made me cry like a bitch. I wish the whole movie could have been Alita going around and exploring the world, and finding things that made her smile.
someone riddle me this. these cringy threads are full of incels fawning over alita, yet you dedicate your thread to a pic of her kissing her boyfriend. are you all cuckold fetishists?
Charles Watson
You sound like you've been to the strategy sessions, user.
Reminder to the lurkers. Yea Forums and /ABAG/ DO NOT agree with pleb trash that shitpost The thread cycle is never wrong. >Plebs come to /ABAG/ to shitpost and spew their vitriol and negative opinions about Alita: Battle Angel. >The patrician regular /ABAG/ posters either do not take the bait or tell the plebs to fuck off. >The plebs get bored and leave because they have other threads to shitpost in. >All that's left are the regular /ABAG/ posters. >Plebs hate Alita: Battle Angel since it's a near flawless movie that will be discussed on Yea Forums for decades to come
The original story had style and substance after that it became generic sci-fi/martial arts garbage. Author completely lost his original focus no amount of better artwork is going to fix the garbage story direction and now he's taken the Kentaro Miura route and became a loli pedo
Jace Cruz
That's a lie. There is never just a singular thread with a meaningful discussion. There's always several threads and all you do is spamming pictures of Alita, mostly fan art. You're just spamming my board. It's obviously a shill thread. And it's worse than Abatap.
The only discussion ever happening here is someone like me getting mad at you. It's annoying to keep seeing this garbage. I even had to see the flick, because your shilling convinced me. But I was right! It's garbage for brainlets! The target audience is surely below the age of at least 20.
So maybe you are some teenagers just spamming my board. But in both cases it's still SPAM!
but since your problem can easily be fixed with a filter, there's really no need for you to keep posting here

How come theres almost no good alita mecrh or art? I want a t-shirt or at least a nice poster.

not all IMAX are that big, this one is only of the few one that can show 70mm movies, this is where I watched Interstellar in 70mm, the screen is 72 ft × 53 ft
>I see everything >I hear everything The vector brothers were indeed a formidable force to be reckoned with. Loved them in the movie, especially their tag team fighting technique.
I don't think you understand how filters actually work.
Dominic Bennett
I gave you a key to a reading of Alita that makes sense and explains the christian imagery appearing throughout the entire story. It also explains the "shitty tree ending", which obviously upset you.
The quality of your rebuttal makes me think your stuck to the surface level and you're just embarassed right now. But if you actually have something coherent to say, I'm all ears.
Jordan Hill

A good story can't be just interesting concepts mashed together, user. Gunnm was carried by its MC but even later it fell flat. Gally is the least interesting character in LO.
Eli Martinez
That's cure, but damn if it had only been the other way around you would have had the opportunity of a lifetime to drop that line.

Angel Brown
Yeah that’s one of the things I’m worried about with sequels; I don’t want her to lose the childlike awe
Would you booze it with Alita? What would she even like? or is she 2 pure for that?
Ryan Young
I'm still here.
Jaxon Thompson
It's kinda strange, but for most waifu's I've had, I'm just FULL ON BURNING ERECTION for them, but for Alita I just want to cuddle and do nothing lewd at all. I can't even imagine Alita in a sexual situation; it's just wrong.
>I even had to see the flick, because your shilling convinced me.
this is the most pathetic sentence I've ever read, holy fuck my sides are in pain
Angel Scott
I think the point of her character was to think of her more as a daughter
Ayden Thomas
Because Alita unlike the others, is a pure and innocent daughterfu.

>I don’t want her to lose the childlike awe Everybody is trying to kill her Her boyfriend turned out a jacker She saw her boyfriend get stabbed before her Her boyfriend died in her arms She saw her boyfriend get decapitated to save him Saw her boyfriend turn into a clumsy cyborg Saw her boyfriend get shred to pieces Saw her boyfriend fall to his doom and die a second time
I believe the Alita you know is dead
Luke Ward
This is blulshit! I want to surround myself with Alita things and I can't! Fuck this shit.
but we've already concluded that the best option for you is to just leave this thread and add "alita" to your filter. Do you not understand how "goodbyes" work? Are you autistic?

unless they, for some ungodly reason, set the sequel during the timeskip, it doesn't seem like hugo's death much bothers her.

We're not getting a sequel. It ended on a high note. We know more or less what happens next. We can live with that.

Told my wife how some had said the movie sexualizes Alita. She scoffed and said Alita is the cutest, not sexiest, woman she has seen on screen in years. She was also angry at New York Times for trying to fit and breast shame Alita.

Sequential art is its own craft; I miss this sort of wistfulness in the midst of darkness, both in the movie and in the later series.
all that could happen next is hollywood OC. As they locked off all the manga plotlines with their arbitrary changes.

This is a good idea. I'm in.

To the user , here's that .webm you ordered. More soon.
personally I enjoy MC being about erika because she's one of the most important people in alitas life and exploring her is basically exploring the pre-conscious alita
and doing detours like the story of munster is almost required for long running mangaka to not lose their goddamn minds
Logan Clark
that's not the final design that's in the movie. they also only look good in still frames. in motion its pure uncanny valley.
Christopher Stewart

There's also this figure which is actually made by Weta. If the Hot Toy is too pricey for you this seems like your best bet. It sure as fuck beats those funko pop things.

THE AUDACITY OF PEOPLE WHO SAY THAT LUCAS IS NOT A GOOD WRITER
Brody Miller
right after alita is first lifted by hugo and she hides her arms and looks at the ground, then hands her arms over and finally speaks. and sounds so fucking innocent too. >Ido built all of me. Well, except my core, that's mine. >Hey, what are those things?
This would be pretty cool, I just wonder at the quality of it in hand
Noah Price

Nicholas Phillips
I’ve been seeing this thread everyday. There’s no way the movie was that good or had that much to discuss, so is this all waifufaggotry powered autism or is 90% this thread literal shills?

shitty movie. the comic is better suck it.

I could definitely date Alita, but I haven't thought of her in a sexual way. I'd want to take her to the park and the zoo, and have her try new foods and. So wholesome and fulfilling

the Cinemarks here in town have some black t shirts with alitas face and a warrior angel logo by the concessions. look nice but for girls I think.
>There’s no way the movie was that good It was that good Do yourself a favour and watch it Or call me a shill and regret later when you see the bdrip
Andrew Smith
The manga has a rather simple structure, which is repeated throughout every story arc.
Alita runs into some faggot. Faggot isn't honest with himself and wishes for some stupid shit. Nova grants faggot's wishes, which leads to a tragedy. Alita remains true to herself and open to the world. Alita grows as a person and moves on.
The final volume is slightly different, because it's a direct confrontation between Alita and Nova that ends in a conscious self-sacrifice.
The movie moves some pieces around, but it really captures this basic recurring story, with Hugo being the dumb fucktard who is manipulated by one of Nova's pawns. I think that's why most fans feel that this is the first movie adaptation of a manga that captures the spirit of the original.
>Does it bother you that I'm not completely human. >You're the most human person I've ever met. This particular kiss is an illustration of the boldness, rarity, and treasure that is a completely sincere non-sexual intimate love that preserves personal integrity, which frankly most people believe only exists in a fantasy or an image like that one.
I really don't know what it's like or imagine the possibility of kissing a woman I love without it at least preceding something sexual later. What is even going on in that picture? I don't know exactly but I am moved and persuaded by Alita to think it is something uncommonly prized and worth considering again in a ninth or tenth visit to the theater.
Seeing a movie more than once is a sign of mental disorder.
Owen Hill
I mean, CM will make more money, but Alita will have much more lasting power.
Thomas Campbell
Do you have a copy without the watermark in the centre?
Grayson Allen
I think fungus will probably make more money due to the mouse both shitting on Alita and hyping up fungus However, I guarantee you Alita will be remembered long, long after this shit is forgotten
Profit-wise? Cap Fungus, people would eat turds if they had a marvel logo on them Legacy-wise? Alita. When the capeshit bubble pops, no one will remember 90% of these movies. People will remember Alita very fondly though.

much like the mighty eucalyptus, we will rest in the dirt until the fire calls upon us!
Isaiah Lee
Fucking god like digits there and absolutely Alita pilled.
Alita is going to become one of the very few classics of this era. It's a smart, visually pleasing movie and it's also very comfy, which makes it extremely rewatchable. People will be watching Alita in 10-20-30 years, while captain woke will be forgotten in 3 weeks. I mean fuck, the only reason people are passionate about CM is because the Mouse is doing everything it can to sabotage Battle Angel.
Me and a couple guys were 20 minutes late getting to the theater last night, because I'm the only one who tries to be punctual. I'm sitting in the back seat, praying we make it in time to see the beginning. After finding a parking space and buying our tickets, we still had to sit through a good 5 or so trailers before the movie started. Praise Alita. She postponed the movie so we could enjoy it in full.
To the user who requested this .webm, here you go. Little toy doesn't want to play anymore. I'm taking a break from making .webms until tomorrow. Check previous threads for my other files. Thanks everyone!
who is this ugly old dyke supposed to be?^ arita's gf?

Was she training with another cyborg here or was her instructor a normal Martian?
Hunter Watson
>tfw hate how funkos look >tfw still took the free one they gave away during the early fan screening
Look at her fingers. She's also a cyborg. They're training in Panzer Kunst, which is a fighting style designed speciically for cyborgs.
She doesn't look older than Alita by more than three years. I think she's the secondmost QT in the movie.
Parker Ward
quints confirm a laifu filled with waifu and sequels
Gabriel Robinson
shes very much another berserker dude. michelle rodriguez. also did yall notice how she and alita are at the head of each squad when climbing the tube at the end?
you either haven't read the manga or you can barely read. or you're just dumb.
nova's shtick in the manga is finding people with desire sets that aren't standard human bullshit and giving them the ability to fully realize those desires. The "dishonesty" you falsely identified is why nova regards them as failures. As no matter what he does to a human, its still human, and longs for the same basic things that caused two apocalyptic events. He's a madman in a mad world raging against the insanity of human nature. The basic premise is no amount of technology can solve humanity's social problems.
The movie loses absolutely all of this. The scrapyard is no worse than any major city. The "WASTELAND" outside the scrapyard is fucking farms, verdant jungle, and beatific lagoons. The humanity tradeoff is lost completely because the people behind the adaptation see no good reason why anyone would avoid cybernetic augmentation. The struggle to survive in what is literally is absolutely not present, because people can come and go as they please and have time to play street motorball. They even made the mistake of showing the border/entry to the scrapyard in a way that mirrors the mexico/US crossing. People lined up to get in, no one trying to get out, etc.
The movie is a treatise on potential wasted by hollywood bullshit. Nova is the king of salem (directly stated in the movie), his motivations are literal mustache twirling, and his actions in the movie is to commission cyborgs to kill alita. Because alita's mission in the scrapyard is to kill the king of salem. They tried to make the narrative tighter but ended up just crushing it into a formless wad of literally nothing.

Did anyone else feel disappointed about the music? The only really good theme that I cannot stop hearing is the Motorball one. I wanted to hear more cyberpunk-like music; however, what I got in the most part was normal ''epic music'' (if that is a genre).
Charles Myers
I looove how she screams in anger while being held by the head. >RAAAAWR

I thought the music was incredible. Loved tom's score, sounded similar to James Horner. youtu.be/YGNda0tb_lU?t=135

Josiah Hughes
You're the nigger getting upset and trying to make Yea Forums your safe space Jerome.

I think it's mostly fine. The first minute of this as she wakes up is weapons grade emotional though and probably my favorite part of the ost. If there was more motorball action some Perturbator type darkwave would've been rad too. youtube.com/watch?v=jdQLd94Ix1w
She looks so smug there. I fucking love smug Alita. The bar scence was pure bliss.
Aaron Turner
yeah, it's kinda forgettable, I hope they get some music with character for the sequel
Oliver Nelson
the fact you think anyone who says things you don't like is a black person outs you as an autistic spic, friend.

I was annoyed by the orchestral track the first time, but its grown on me. theres a few scenes, like right after she kicks nessianas head in and grewishka stares at her, where the music builds tension real well. >TUN TUN TUN sounds like that

Just ordered my second ticket. Seeing it next Tues.
Thay's pretty neat too, I must admit. It works for the first minutes of the movie when she is discovering the world. After that, that piece of music it's plain forgettable for me.
Yes, that kind of music would work out in a sequel as says.
