Alita: Battle Angel General Discussion #336
Previous Thread: Controversy edition. I don't like oranges.
/ALITA/
i don't understand this he only uses it when relevant
Based, Peaches is the least cancer namefag but still a cancerous namefag.
True.
so... this is what happens when Alitabros are left to their own devices....
>whining about names again
Mine was first:
Other thread is older.
>21:20:29
Please migrate.
This doesn't make me a bad foster father, right? It's not Alita, it's just a cosplay thot that looks like her. Right?
>Maybe it's time for you to fuck off a little bit
This is thread #337, retarded OP copied thread number
ah boo hoo hoo
You loses aren't ever going to stop talking about this flick/get laid, are you?
ain't nobody posting there sorry princess
make me faggot
Brothers and sisters, I have it on good authority that Zapan did not kill those two organic boys. As a matter of fact, he was on his way to church when he was attacked by an anti-cybernetic hate group who were behind numerous assaults on Cybernetic-Americans. This same gang reportedly murdered the renowned motorball player Kinuba and stole his body parts, illustrating that even those Cybernetic-Americans who have risen to the status of star athletes are not safe from hate attacks by organics.
Furthermore, it has been reported that Zapan's face was destroyed in full view of a group of Centurions, who did nothing to apprehend the assailant. Such craven dereliction of duty demonstrates, once more, the structural prejudice that Cybernetic-Americans face.
If you want to stand up for justice, if you want to end the discrimination still perpetrated, still institutionalized by organics, if you want to raise a mighty steel fist and break the teeth of the next organic who dares utter the derisive term "h*rdbody," I entreat you to make a tax-deductible donation to the Vector Foundation today.
>me when op doesn't like oranges
O-oh. Well, I mean... Do as you like.
Fixed that nonsense for you.
THANKS FOR THE NEW BREAD ANONS
god damn you're a fag
Hey, whoa, I'm like right here man
I've only namefag'd like ten times
Yikes, sweetie. I can't even.
Remember the days we didn't have a civil war with the thread making?
Last thing we need is a namefags war.
It's cringy enough to take on one implying you have no problem with the others for whatever reason.
But fighting each other is even worse.
don't look at me like that Rosa, we tried organizing but people here get trigger happy with new threads. I'm sorry.
you guys dont even talk about the movie, what is the purpose of this thread?
>tfw considered using this for the op but thought the war was over
>Well, stop it! Get along!
I'm just messing around. I rarely use my name anymore.
Whoa a rare Rosa in the wild!
these are both gay and very lame. Our namefags hurt nobody and produce content. Get over it.
We do talk about the movie. We also make OC, organize meetups, waifu, and fit in healposting.
It's really not that hard to fucking announce it before you do it, holy shit.
very nice catch! Very rare-Rosa indeed!
10 times too many as far as I'm concerned
They are announcing it, but they're not checking to see if anyone else did, either. Plus, everyone was kind of dragging their feet.
No, MY thread is #337 (ironically, also with a copied #366 from last thread):
This thread was first
OP here, please migrate to the other thread and let this one die. It was first, even though the other OP is a faggot.
But I've posted it once before. I think she deleted it form her instagram.
just admit that you'd still come in and be a dumbass even if every post was a detailed analysis. You don't actually give a shit and we care about your thoughts even less .
*#336
Whatever. Just leave and migrate to here:
I have no ill will towards anyone here, the fact someone else does is a little sad, I just turned the meme around on another known namefag.
>it got deleted
LMAO
I did check, but the threads were created within seconds of each other.
So, OP, you were saying?
Oops, jannies deleted it.
I thought it was funny. also Homecoming wasn't bad
Are you FUCKING kidding me.
My ass jannies delete the later one.
They deleted my thread even though it was first.
Fine, I call dibs on next thread,Thread #338. I'll use the Tom & Jerry pic for that unless something better comes along.
The true thread is here then.
I'm a faggot, the other OP is a bigger faggot, and the jannies are the biggest faggots of us all.
holy fucking shit, these threads are still going
fucking how
sleepy time
Raimi's Spider-Man 2 is still the best one, but Holland is a fine fit for the character.
Magic!
>I'll call dibs on next thread
Nobody cares.
OH, HO HO HO
Shots fired.
BASED jannies
> a-user, help untie me
>10 times is too many
I wish your mother would tell me that more often, I barely get any time to myself
OH FUCK DESTROYED
>I don't think anons are going to be very eager to do so, Rosa
Don't worry we'll leave once the sequel is announced promise
night user
rest well and dream of cyber women
>You know, it's not often an user finds themself in this situation. I mean, think of the possibilities!
Fucking RIP.
Looks like she tied herself up.
Not that I know anything about that...
>72 posts in 20 minutes
We're hitting 999 by June, right?
>dat burn

His career is ENDED
maybe sooner
It's not rape if you're asking please, Peaches.
Honestly probably
Nah I still win because he took his stupid fucking name off. I'm the winner here, everybody saw it
What are you talking about? I just posted there:
And now I'm posting here.
if it was Alita? Instantly. Rosa? I might just enjoy a few minutes of struggling.
how about instead of arguing over namefags, we post cute alitas
Alita wouldn't need the help. If she's tied up, it's because she wants to be tied up.
Some user's just upset and using some namefags' names to rile people up. I wish FaceApp user would do more like this, less colored hair and teeth.
Great idea. You get the thread coin.
Sounds about right
I don't like what you're insinuating
Alita with bangs is pretty cute
That was fast, you sure you don't want to wait to see if there's another contender?
>tee hee, no one will notice if I just--YOINK
should have one of her happily giving threadcoin
NO MINE
That scene is actually kind of awful to watch, I wish I had never posted that image on here in the first place because Rosa sells it so well that I feel bad for using it as a joke now
I shall provide the good denizens of this thread the means from which to meme, themselves.
colored hair and teeth you said?
>Hey that's mine
the only hair edits that actually are cute. Hopefully she gets to mess around with different looks in FA.
I finally found a good 1080 rip
THANK FUCKING GOD
suck my ass
Nice bait. Share pictures if true.
Yeah we're gonna need proof
Man, Vector has a lot of tokens, he's running a monopoly on them.
Trenchcoat represent
I do wonder what their inherent value is
Time for gym C'MON
If you've got coins with the number 1000 on them, they're not a very strong currency.
>A ten dollar bill is worth 1000 pennies
I mean, I guess?
I didn't know they had pennies and dollars. I thought they used just one form, and the numbers are always high. Where did you get the dollars and pennies stuff? The movie and manga never mention them, is this something from the artbook?
sure thing FBI
HIGH IMPACT SEXUAL VIOLENCE
I took the name off because I'd rather keep the threads together than start a fight
Realistically, would Alita need to exercise? Sure, she trains, but she's already in top shape.
I don't get the hype
serious Tom Cruise teeth again
I think the Iron City Experience had coins in various values. I know I saw it somewhere, there's different values.
You can't exercise mechanical parts, the only training she would realistically need is on how to move that body, and that training she already got on Mars.
She wouldn't need to exercise but she'd still need to train her muscle memory or whatever
yeah that's the cherry on top of the blonde-posting. It's impossible to unsee.
FLOOF!
NATURAL FLOOF!
a virtually maintenance free warbody isn't gonna teach you how to fight. I assume that's what all of her training is actually for. I like the sparring robes exposing part of the berzerker body it looks cool
You are correct, I didn't know this but I had to check.
They only had 1000 Credit coins at the Iron City Experience though
>fell from the building in Maze Runner
>woke up as Alita
m.youtube.com
I guess the smaller ones have some use as well, it's not Zimbabwe after all.
phew I was worried I was retarded and misremebering
>I didn't get the hype
- Best CGI that has ever existed
- The last movie shot in native 3D was Avatar ten years ago
- Best sci-fi action movie of the last decade easily
- James Cameron is a genius and it shows
- Robert Rodriguez is a chad and a total pro
- Rosa Salazar gives such an incredible performance that I literally can't compare it to anything
- Tightest script I can think of
I'd keep going but I need to do a thing right now
I don't like this
hot
Requesting edit with bigger eyes and warpaint.
user! Would you kill Rosa if it made Alita real?
Based hype friend
China is weird.
No, Alita already lives in my heart.
I think cyber-bodies can get stiff if they're not exercised, and exercise also helps physical skills, but the only way to make them stronger is to upgrade the hardware.
China gets milk biscuits with Alita on it. It's just not fair, bros.
> got email confirmation of my ticket for the meet-up viewing Tuesday
See you all there
me on the left
You're mostly correct but
>The last movie shot in native 3D was Avatar ten years ago
That's bullshit.
realorfake3d.com
>tfw NorCal bros to go with
chairclattering.gif
WTF I hate Alita now, piece of shit movie
Holy shit, this is sad. Cameron would be furious.
Can someone explain to a brainlet like me the difference in process for real vs fake 3d?
Whatcha listenin to?
>youtube.com
>that long ass Valerian title
was that really the full title? How did I never notice that?
The manga said something about her brain needs to adapt to the body and learn cyborg martial arts
Real 3D is they actually shot in with a 3D camera, the movie was filmed with 3D in the camera. Fake 3D is they convert the footage afterwards to do pseudo 3D.
I'm glad you asked because I'm a dumb and don't know either
Because you never went to see it?
Alita as Itachi OR Alita as Salad ?
I did see it but all I remember was the main title. I wonder what else I've forgotten.
>I didn't get the hype
Continued:
- Three Oscar winners, two who have won twice
- Soundtrack by the guy who did Mad Max: Fury Road
- Cinematography by the guy who shot the Matrix
- The movie took literally 20 years to get made
- The manga series that has been going since the '90s
- Motorball is the most badass fictional sport
- Super violent for PG-13, five people get cut in half (for example)
- Probably one of the top 5 best bar fights ever
- Super cute love story that isn't totally stupid
- Gorgeous production design
- Really unique setting for a cyberpunk dystopia
If the doc wants to help Hugo why does she only save the head but not the whole body?
>I did see it
Bullshit, nobody saw it. It flopped even worse than Flopita Flop Angel.
>Controversy edition.
Fine, here's mine. And I feel really guilty about it.
I liked Shazam! more than Alita. And I really like Alita.
>The movie took literally 20 years to get made
Is this the new Boyhood?
OK maybe it was the last movie shot with the type of 3D camera that James Cameron helped design
>a wild Alita out of her natural habitat, desperate to find chocolate
>will she find enough before the next winter?
those feet...
I don't think Jupiter Ascending should ever be mentioned in the same company as the other two, and Alita > Valerian
Was Shazam! that good? I want to see it.
How does Alita: Battle Angel compare to Valerian and Jupiter Ascending?
I saw it but sorta wish I didn't. The first 10 minutes was the only good part about it. The two leads had less emotional range than a stick figure. Absolute bore to watch which is too bad because the setting seemed decent enough to explore.
wow, very cool!
Don't feel guilty user. Love isn't lessened by being shared. Your heart has room for as many things as you want it to have.
Those movies--I desperately wanted them both to be good--were utter trash. Unwatchable. Alita is poetry compared to them.
Get a feather.
Never saw Jupiter but:
I enjoyed Shazam and saw it again today with my folks but it's nowhere near Alita-level.
Valerian was decent but flawed RE the main characters. JA was absolute garbage
Jupiter Ascending was fucking trash, watched it with the family and we all hated it.
So, is it like A:BA>V>>>>JA
or
A:BA>>>>>>>>V>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>JA?
>Is this the new Boyhood
Actually that comparison has come up before but in regards to how well Rosa played Alita's growth and maturation over the course of the movie
The bottom one.
The second one.
China really, REALLY loves Alita. Will try to find more pictures from their sites.
Swap Chris Pratt and Jennifer Lawrence from Passengers with Dane DeHaan and Cara Delevigne from Valerian and both movies would have been better
they really do. They basically saved this movie from flopping singlehandedly.
I'm trying to picture this and I just can't. I think that's a terrible idea user.
This fan art I'm finding over this is fucking great, and really cute.
>Why did she only save Hugo's head
Trust me it's a lot harder to hide a body than just a head
Cara and DeHaan just should not act at all ever. Pratt and Lawrence bug me personally but at least they're not terrible actors.
> nobody’s posted our mascot jumping Alita yet
that'd be some rad poster art.
Jesus. Can't Dune be out already so these fucking threads die
Reddit is the other way
I know it's not quite the same but I did post something with her!
> Kissu
Fine.
>tfw we are going to watch Ido die in the sequel
Do you think Alita can chew through metal?
>Implying
Although who from the duniverse will be added to the blanket fort?
>thinking Dune will kill this
All that will do is cause even more crossover memes for both threads
Valerian is supposed to be charismatic but kind of goofy and a little bit of an airhead
Laureline is supposed to be smart and resourceful
Pratt's character in Passengers wakes a girl out of cryo-sleep just so he can have some company, Lawrence's character just needs to be gorgeous
Dane DeHaan is great at being creepy and Cara Delevigne is literally a model
They had to convince the centurions that Hugo was dead.
He'll be fine
I think it's evident at this point, I'm going all over Baidu and weibo, they spent way more on marketing over in China than in the US. They had tie-ins with games, food companies, phones, exhibits, screenings, etc. I could see them having spent 50 million marketing in China alone.
CUTE
U
T
E
on the bus home from 17th healing
fuck I’m gonna be sad when she’s gone
Chani
Paul, obviously
Okay then if Passengers needs to die so Valerian can survive then that's fine with me
The jaw is the strongest muscle so I imagine for a berserker hardbody it’d be easy
What exactly is the connection between Dune and Alita?
Nothing. He just thinks another movie will kill Alita.
Let's assume each ticket costs $12
17*12=$204
Maybe if you were more financially responsible you wouldn't have to take the bus like a vagrant. Idk just a thought.
your help is appreciated by ourgirl, fren.
Then why are you still here? go with the rest of the whiny babies.
Ok, I was hesitating at first because I do actually like Gunnm, but at this point there's no question about it. This is /reylo/ levels of pathetic.
Uhh, no?
>Paul discovers a hidden army that is bigger than anyone ever imagined
>Alita creates a hidden army that is bigger than anyone ever imagined
> We are all holy warriors
Like check this shit out, I don't know if it's a real game, but they officially made this pixel game video thing as a marketing move over there.
zcool.com.cn
Watch the video there.
Imagine thinkinag any movie can kill /Alita/
good luck trying to put down a volcano with a bucket of water.
>boop
this is the most asinine thing I've read tonight congrats user well done
You have no idea where that person lives, there are plenty of places where public transportation doesn't suck
thinkinag
that's my cue to go to sleep
Don't know if anyone's seen this, but I'm sure Cameron has one in his office.
JC was the Bene Gesserit planting the seeds of the of our religion 20 years ago. Waiting, biding his time. Now we have awakened.
More cute fan art from zcool.
Imagine not having decent public transit and thinking the bus is only for poor people.
Oh fuck we need to get a good cap for CutOut to grab so we can add McLachlan
Dudes I just got Toblerone
My night is complete
Hesitating about what?
Fuck yeah pixel art
Sleep well fren
It's good. It's just a completely different type of movie. It's definately much more jokey and lighthearted than Alita. I appreciate the fact that they don't shy away from the Golden Age of comics narrative in that movie and introduce some truly ridiculous ideas without being ashamed of them. Like the Marvel Family and fucking Mr Mind.
But when Shazam! wants to go dark and heavy it goes there and it works. Like the scenes with Billy and his mother or his fallout with Freddy.
So it all depends on where you stand - I guess I had slightly more fun with Shazam! but this movie is really desperate for you to have fun, so there is that.
This is a cute cartoony one based off a mythical Chinese emperor drawing.
Not really man. I live in Toronto and our public transit is actually really good. But basically everywhere in the western world whether or not you own a car is a massive social indicator of your standing in society.
You guys know exactly what I'm talking about. When you're going on a date, it's really different if you pick a girl up in your car vs you two taking the bus, no matter how well run the public transit system is.
>Alita with melange-eyes
If there's one thing that'll guarantee a sequel for Alita, it's her popularity in China. Hollywood is desperate to find a way to gain ground over there; they like the MCU but we'll see how long that lasts after Captain Fungus takes it over. Star Wars is DOA in China and other stuff is hit or miss.
>not seeing a movie based on a series you like just because other people enjoyed it too much
Very much more manga styled, I love this one.
Yeah especially if Avatar is a hit there. Based CY bros carrying the load
Happiness is priceless user
Money is an illusion
Another very cute side profile of her.
gangsta getting some love, nice.
Oh shit working on it right now
yeah man poverty dates aren't a good feel
>pic related how Alita looks at scrubs that try to pick her up without at least a cool bike
I know it's easier said than done not being bothered by having to bus everywhere but if I had no car and a hot date I'd just lyft it.
Omega-healed user
Fuck me, China fans rock.
she wouldn't be shallow like that.
Bike can only have a maximum of one wheel though
jesus that's detailed. I wish I could do more than make shitty edits. I wish I kept up with drawing. Probably would be halfway decent if I didn't stop at like 18.
Best time to start again is now user
These threads would be tolerable if you guys made stuff like this But you just spam shit like this
You honestly expect a bunch of Yea Forums users to very consistently post high as fuck quality work like that every other post? Meanwhile you're okay with the state of other Yea Forums threads? Fuck outta here.
Yea Forums isn't for works of art dummy. Also an user last thread made a nice pastel illustration.
Hey CutOut could you pull Zapan out of this? He's the only one that didn't get his own image for some reason
>"I found you."
My Fremen
Alita would probably carry you on her back if she liked you enough
I would expect SOMETHING of substance given that you guys have had over 300 of these threads.
What do you have to show for yourselves? Garbage fanfic and terrible screencaps? Poorly subbed gifs and collections of Arizona cans?
At least with other threads there's not a common theme. They're over and done with in 300 posts so what can you really expect in terms of output and quality? You guys have had thousands upon thousands of posts and nothing of real quality. It's impressive in and of itself, really.
I like to think that she'd carry you bridal style with no effort.
I dunno man I think the level of quality on our OC is pretty high compared to the rest of Yea Forums right now.
oh shit Nova hacked Alita
We need them fully blue
Did you watch the film though?
damn, very convincing! I'm gonna go do what you're doing to every thread on Yea Forums right now! If I don't see HQ creations in every thread I'm going to petition we just demolish the site. Thanks for the inspo bud!
yeah our OC is consistently pretty great and when it's quick it's still funny enough
90k to Hugo, 10k on chocolate and oranges
Yeah, you're right, these threads suck. They need more SNEED!
Yesterday an organic man told me he admired my hands. It took only a few seconds but this brief interaction crystallized the structural oppression that People of Machinery (PoM) face in every facet of our lives. An organic may ask what's wrong with that, why not be happy that people praise our cybernetic bodies, but this only perpetuates the systematic devaluation of PoM reinforced by the unexamined organic privilege. If this young man had taken a moment to interrogate the thought process that led to him "just admiring my hands," might he have desisted from this statement? Might he have reflected on the history of instrumentalization - the history of objectification, of colonization of the mechanical by the organic? Organic social structures have long charted the mechanical and the cybernetic as a colonizing force. Machines are described in manuals, blueprints, schematics, organic engineers creating these documents with the same zeal of 15th century cartographers, whose drawn interpretations of Earth's geography opened the door to untold suffering by indigenous peoples. Every cybernetic body existed in the imagination before it existed in reality, and PoM are thus the indigenous people of the human noosphere, dwellers on the frontier of human imagination. But through institutionalized prejudice, outright violence and a withering storm of microggressions, microaggressions running the gamut from the awkward remark to the grope to the simple wide-eyed downward glance that PoM know every bit as intimately as their optimum lubrication schedule, we continue to suffer. "I was just admiring your hands." Organics don't "just" admire, they gape, they gawk, they exploit, they destroy, they deny maintenance, they grind into scrap and melt down. The unexamined words of an organic are never "just," the presence of organic bodies encircling and limiting cybernetic bodies is injustice made manifest to the greatest degree of physical immediacy.
You don't want to see what fully blue looks like user
I can't tell if you're being serious or not.
That's the level of quality I've come to expect from these threads. Let that speak for itself.
Well that's a big strawman but whatever. Other threads on here, like I just said, are singular. You guys have strung together over 300 generals. And damn near every single one is identical. The same screencaps. The same gifs. The same "omg so comfy an cute my frens" role-playing.
This, dune eyes are blue within blue, blue pupils, blue sclera, blue iris
I had an insult for this but I'm going to let it slide because you don't seem toxic you just seem confused
Sounds like you're lurking and getting jealous you can never feel what we feel. Go back to your other threads.
People who make OC of that quality tend to want credit for their creations, and thus won't post them here.
The bigger question, though, is if you hate these threads so much, why do you keep posting in them?
Why does /alita/ never post the world's greatest reaction pic?
How about this one?
Does anyone have the SJW Alita copypasta? I know, I know, but I need it
stay comfy folks
Nah he knows what he's doing insult away
night user sleep well
Disregard i'm a retard
Always. We're getting towards Aus hours so get your blankets out
k am I getting closer or what
Iron City = Ank Morpork future?
Nova = Havelock Vetinari?
That's more what I'm talking about. The spice must flow.
Makes literally zero sense. Where the fuck is the connection?
>Dr Ido... h-hi
>I know it's late... but... i-is Alita still awake?
Not gone... repatched.
More like that wholesome smile.
>Her name is a killing word
>I would expect something of substance given that you've had over 300 of these threads
Yeah well I bet if you had sucked 300 cocks by now I'd still end up with teeth marks
>sorry, user, but you know the rules
>no visitors past 8pm

Ok, spice user here, anyone got a specific pic they want...spiced up
China is way too based for us to handle.
Fuck that's terrifying
Kek
Everything is relative user
If you have it, the shot of alita looking up at the berserker body in the urm ship
why is this so perfect?
Anybody have the image of Alita screaming while she punches that metal table or whatever? I need it for an OC.
I get the most perverted analogies in my head, which I myself also understand.
Yeahhh...well that fell flat.
>she waited all night for you, and she cried herself to sleep when she realized you weren't coming
>I meant it when i told her no one would dare harm her again...
Explain to me how Ankh-Morpork and Iron City have anything in common (unless you mean the whole twin-cities thing, but even then it's not similar at all) and especially how Nova resembles Vetinari in any way.
>doc, please let me talk to her
>I'll explain everything
Because Alita is perfect
An elegant choice for an elegant person
yeah I'll admit it sounded better in my head
Any bakers tonight?
