MOTORBALL EDITION
I haven't been to the cinema since 2007, because here in Ukraine they show most movies only with Ukrainian dub these days. And it isn't even my native language.
But Alita convinced me to change my mind. The movie had some flaws, but overall, I liked it. Even Ukrainian dub wasn't that bad - in fact, it was better than some of the Russian dubs that I've heard in recent years.
Still need to watch it in English when the Blu-ray comes out, and then I'll probably start reading the manga.
>Manga boxset dispatched today
How the hell does this general get 80+ people in the afternoon? Magic?

Mang that's good shit. I love stuff like this. Even before this was written, I realized that Cameron and I guess Rob decided they want to create an entire narrative and story of the traditional heroe's journey in the western tradition using eastern source material. Entirely ignoring the faithfulness and arguments about 1:1 translation from the manga to the screen, on its own the movie works phenomenally well and paying attention to all the details you know that they deliberately inserted all the symbolism, themes, motifs and religious/spiritual iconography.
This was no accident.

Are you the original artist with a latest version, or did you do your own version from the original image? Alita's face is different.
Apparently Captain Marvel takes a shot at James Cameron's film True Lies. No wonder the crew is fucking pissed at the movie and isn't afraid to like posts denouncing CM.
AU REVOIR ALITTAHHH
t.Ido
I'm Ukrainian, but my native language is Russian, and in the recent years I've almost completely switched to English as my primary language for media consumption.
I wonder the same. The modified version's Alita looks better, but lacks the soul from the original one.

I'm merely reposting. No idea who changed it but I like the more accurate face better.
are you mad bout the floof
I brought it from 2ch, Russian imageboards. The local user changed the face, I'm not the author.
Alita is holding well in China. Theaters should absolutely do it instead of throwing empty screens away on Captain Fungus.
haha he posted it again, guys. Look!
>No wonder the crew is fucking pissed at the movie and isn't afraid to like posts denouncing CM.
what are you talking about? what crew?
2ch.pm
This post.
No that would be petty. I am mad at the lack of true cyberpunk. The scrapyard (renamed Iron city for no reason) is like a modern day comfy city in South America or Mexico when it's supposed to be a literal Hell like a 40k hive city
My book arrived today! Not as heavy as I expected, the BR2049 artbook weighed just over 2kg (4,5lbs?), this is little over 500g.
Neither was the OVA, you dumb nigger
I haven't had any urges towards pornography since i watched Alita last sunday.
Is this the power of healing?
It's funny since Elysium copied the idea from Alita.
Wait, is Metropolis considered cyberpunk?
Scan the whole thing, please.

My local theater has been around since the early 80's, hasn't been renovated since. Still has bullet holes in the bathroom that caused them to put up a "no guns allowed" sign on the doors.
Can someone re-make this, please?
Replace the Metropolis (1927) poster with the anime heavily influenced by it, Metropolis (2001) poster.
Replace Tron Legacy with Blade Runner 2049
Replace Total Recall (the shit remake) with the original Total Recall.
And replace Elysium with Alita: Battle Angel.
Go, go, GO!
proof?
Tron Legacy was good you asswipe. So was Total Recall remake.
>I see you also live in Iron City user, we should meet
holy shit i was in a dead thread.
i had to rename the webms.
anyone have the webm of her standing up on one arm?
i think it's my favourite part of the movie
I think this part where Hugo put the skates on Alita was cut from the movie because the video about the production showed it.
Tron Legacy had the kind of OST Alita would love
Also, making it too grimdark risks making the setting comically dark. I've read some "social realist" literature, where the author over-did it and created a hilarious slapstic comedy.
The desperate human drive to make things cozy and pretty endures, even in the worst shitholes on Earth.
I can not think of a more retarded looking and sounding language than Kraut. Like holy shit Hitler you are embarrassing.
Did the crew dislike some posts hating on CM? Sauce?
you liked it?
Damn. Do you think Alita would have been more successful if it came out first? Or are you guys glad with the way things turned out?
I've merged the best versions of these two into one story image, if anyone's interested.
The dandies from the Congo are both based and cursed.
They have a good taste in clothing while their families are starving. It's hilarious.
not that
Oh, you mean the one in the underworld? One second.
I haven't seen that - but they have liked tweets with the #AlitaChallenge hashtag, and preferring Alita over Captain Marvel.
If this had been a normal time, that sort of thing would just be good sport, but in 2019 they're taking a pretty big risk of being singled out and accused of racism/sexism/whatever.
Don't like the fact that one side is b/w, the other colored. It's all or nothing with her, remember?
>t. Jerome our pet Tumblrina bait poster
Great post as usual Jerome. Full of facts backing up your claims. How will any ALITA fan ever recover from getting so BTFO I just can't even understand.
Tron: Legacy was snooze tier. One of the only times I actually fell asleep at the cinema. They LITERALLY sit and do nothing right in the middle of the film. A kick-ass OST does not a good movie make.
Total Recall remake was BALLS.
I am going to an interview for a job on Friday because I want to be able to afford the Alita manga and blu-ray
the one I made? I wish the quality was better but it's fine for now I guess

You aren't fooling anyone with your phone posting. This post was your 13th IP in this thread. I've been counting. The other phone poster has 16 IPs. There is me and a few others and that is all the posters in the thread count.
If you wanna color in the b/w and post a new version, be my guest
Yeah, look at that literal hellhole. There's even women with purses *gasp*. It's almost like the city isn't some big meme cyberpunk nightmare but is actually complex and multilayered, with bad, crime ridden districts and decent ones where normal humans can live and work.
For what it's worth, the Japanese name is actually Scrap Iron City.
So glad Rob didn't bow to the pressure to insert tacky fanservice like this

Depends on the class. Is it some bullshit class you have to take out of requirement and barely poses a challenge? Then yeah. Is it a class you have to take but also care about and does pose a challenge? No. Pay attention.
not quite, i was more interested in the part she lifts up, but it doesn't matter, i'll wait for a decent quality.

are you serious?
The original Metropolis is NOT cyberpunk. The terms "cyber" and "punk" didn't even exist in 1927. It's modernist, it's futurist, it's a lot of things, but "cyberpunk" isn't one of them.
Have you seen the anime Metropolis? It's so good, is heavily influenced by the original 1927 movie, and actually IS cyberpunk.
yes
Higher quality OC

How do I convince my girlfriend that we have to watch alita in theaters a second time? I've already seen it with her once and 4 times on my own
Depends if she liked it. If she did, say the film should get the support, you can look out for details you didn't notice before, and so on. You got to convince her yourself. If you can't just go again yourself.
Saw Captain Marvel today.
It only makes Alita better by comparison.
Will go back to watch Alita for a sixth time tomorrow to cleanse my pallet.
Just ask if she wants to go, because Hugo's story feels better on the second watch when you know where he ends up. But if she doesn't want to go, don't force her of course.
if she doesnt want to just call her a dumb retard
No. It's a great movie, but it is NOT cyberpunk. "Cyber" implying computers exist and "punk" implying punk exists. Neither existed until the late 1970s, which would be AFTER 1927. It's not cyberpunk and the file is called Essential CYBERPUNK. That's final.
Thanks user. Saved.
I really hope you didn't pay to see Captain Marvel. Tell me you snuck in.
If you bought your ticket to CM via Fandango, then MAYBE you'll be allowed to leave a user review on Rotten Tomatoes. If they don't just remove user reviews completely.
Tempt her with the promise of letting her peg you after the movie if she comes with you.
>Bring oranges and chocolate to share together
>makeout with her when Alita and Hugo kiss in the rain.
RT reviews will just be Amazon Vine reviews for movies now. I remember all those five-star reviews for a snowblower that didn't even work because the Vine reviewers hadn't had any snow that year.
Kinda. Got two for one deal for me and a friend and chose the cheapest seats I could find. Awful forgettable agenda pushing trash.
*BRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP

the pic of alita have a shit quality
There's also better posters.
Yeah, should be a better pic imo.
I'd even put this one.

is this official?
CEASE.
Not recognizable enough at a distance.
Yes
Can you do this in the United States of Idlibstan?
What scene?
Apparently that scene where CM falls into the Blockbuster, she gets up and sees a True Lies poster and shoots it.
Why do you think you need to justify yourself? be a man and go see it, she can tag along if she wants to if she doesn't she can stay
i wonder what she would smell like
Cool fanart, saved.
These posters were really shit.
A lot of shit plastered in

Is Avalon actually any good? I tried to watch it and literally nearly fell asleep from how utterly bored I was. Actually shut it off not even halfway through.
>Let The Rock get just one good whiff of what your cooking
this should be a gif
I did my best, you guys...
Some of the photos lost resolution when I stretched them down.
I didn't want to use this because it was too similar to BR2049
Every other poster is the American version, so I wanted to stay consistent.
Here, I did my best to fix it. It's not much better, but it's the best I can do.
That poster isn't much better. Put the one in with the close up of Alita's eye. That one is kino.
user is talking about this one.
This one is my favourite.
You dump her ass and tell her you can’t be with someone who doesn’t want to watch alita every day.
this
I just bought this shit off amazon, I had to have it. Shame it only comes in a modest 18 x 28
This one is nice too.
but it has some vaporwave cool colors
I've noticed she has tiny facial hair in these posters like the rest of humans. Does that even have a function or was it just a whim?
You answered your own question. I didn't like it and i am a big fan of Oshii.
It has some nice cinematography, badly aged cg, the music is nice, the actress look like an Slavic version of Motoko Kusanagi, but the movie ultimately fails.
/r/ing again a gif of alita expression faces fast reel
Something like this one?
I cant do gifs :(
I'm the original artist and yes, I know I fucked up. I'm still learning.
I like this one.
The function is probably for touch receptors, just like human facial hairs.
It turned out pretty good, user.
BREHS
:(
This one is PHOTO
Get plenty of sleep, and groom yourself properly. Land that job to keep up your weeb desires
GOD DAMN IT! This is the LAST time.

Exactly it looks childish and faggy like a cheesy piece of fan art. Also the cartoon drawing of Alita looks like a 12 year old which is much younger then she appeared in the movie. Put the eyeball poster in it. It is a better representation of the actual film.

HHHHHHHHNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHH!

Mmmm
I know this isn't /ck/, but I LOVE mortadella. I love foods that have other foods inside them, like pepper jack cheese.
I've watched it 3 times. My first viewing experience was amazing. It was like I went to another timeline where this movie didn't flop. The theater was packed and the crowd was cheering and clapping. Every other viewing has had a crowd size about what you'd expect.

Her eyes are so mesmerizing.

>Panzer Kunst
What's that about anyway? Do artworks of tanks prominently play into the plot of the movie or is that just one of those Japanese "let's take random German words/concepts and throw them in out of context" things?
She's just so pure. Given a another chance at life, no longer forced to be a soldier, and not even be on the "enemy's" side. She can have a father, fall in love, make friends, and discover who she really wants to be. She still is a warrior, with powers far long gone, but she can have more purpose than she did.
>You've been given a second chance at life, how many of us get that?
Figure is the worst character in Alita history while Desty Nova is the best. Let that sink in and be a lesson to you meaty boys.
The latter, user.
Ever heard of the term "martial arts"?
>some zoomer couple
Zoomers are so lost in the sjw infection. It's no help saving them now.
>not a luger
Bet Alita has a cute lil bum :3 (No Lewd).
Oh christ. Please tell me this is a joke.
It means Steel Fist in German dumbass. It's a martial art invented by Cyborgs for Cyborgs. Its purpose is for fighting in Zerog and specializes in using vibrations to destroy enemy cyborgs from the inside out.
I'll take "Things That Never Happened" for $400, Alex.

Merkt das zwölfte Stück, ob du raschlich mit ihm enden will. So nehm dein Gewehr und Schwert zusammen im Futteral, und schraub dein bionischen Arm ab und werf ihn heftig nach ihm. Nach der Werfen lauff auf ihn zu und nütz Panzerkunst oder Gewehr, je nachdem, was du am besten passt.
>It means Steel Fist in German dumbass
Except it doesn't, that would be Stahlfaust.
"Panzer Kunst" literally means "Tank art".
Record their reactions user, if they have any.
Panzer = armor/tank
Kunst = art
Not necessarily. Panzer can also mean shell, in the case of a turtoise for example.
>It means Steel Fist
Wrong
Panzer is armored vehicle
Kunst is art
Literally, [martial] art for armored bodies
I'm '95, asshole.

I think you meant to say 500.
And no, not that much. German has remained practically the same for the past 500 years.
thats fucking great but i meant morelike one of those flipbook gifs of facial expressions since she does pretty much every expression imaginable in the movie
tank art is better than steel fist
Holy shit German is easily the most retarded looking and sounding language in history. I would be so fucking embarrassed if my native language was German.
I liked Figure Four, it's my favourite storyline so far with the best balance between humour, action, story telling and all around fun

This is correct - so it can apply to bionic armor as well. It is a fighting art for machine bodies, precisely as Ido says.
>I liked Figure Four.
Stopped reading right there you damn no taste philistine. Garbage character who didn't do shit but be a shitty author self insert. Kaos was the superior character in every way shape and form. Too bad Alita didn't meet him first.
Bit of both.
"Armor art" refers to how tank crews needed to predict enemy movement and act/prep beforehand, except in this case the "armor" is an engineered cyborg body.
It actually bites her in the ass a few times because she preemptively gets in a stance or throws a punch based on her prediction, when nobody was actually a threat.
It being in German is just because they thought it sounded cool and helped reinforce the idea of mixed people and cultures from Mars.
Yeah you tried that earlier bro, nobody cares about your shit opinion so stop being a faggot.
Damn, off by one
Kaos is better than that monkey faced fucker.
I SERIOUSLY hope you lot are trolling.
English is a Germanic language. Yes, it's infused with lots of Latin and other vocabulary, but the structure and operations is Germanic. No German means no English.

Germanic offshoots are far superior.
Dutch and Afrikaans sounds positively nice compared to standard G*rman.
