Those sneakers are a complete fashion failure.
first for safety first alita
Alita lookin' like she bout to dunk on some mothafuggas
Cute story of Alita playing basketball and getting mad as the person she's playing with holds the ball over her head too high to reach when
>reminder that much the way ticks and mosquitos transmit diseases, Vampalita confers nanomachines when she feeds on you, bestowing you with extra-human healing abilities.
>implying any human has a vertical leap comparable to Alita
The entirety of the Harlem Globetrotters would have been wasted by a single defense ring.
Yeah she should color coordinate better by wearing something like pic related.
mad props to whoever colored this
has there been an Alita: Slavic Angel edit yet? her squatting in her adidas?
>when /fa/ raids Yea Forums
>Forgetting the most important protection
Alita in healies. Didn’t know I wanted this until now lmao. She also has a pair of soaps under the bed.
>wanting protection from healing
What are motorball skates if not just advanced heelys
I don't know if Rosa would think it's hilarious that we took the spittu meme this far or if she'd think we're all insane
A little A, a little B
but she's insane also, so she'd have to check herself.
Here's a rare Rosa for the night crew
Guys, I bought a Sobe, thought I'd try it since I haven't had one since I was a kid.
guys, it's really bad, help me
i would imagine she'd think we're insane if we came up with it out of nowhere, but the only reason it exists is because that one lady spit in her mouth and she posted a video about it...
I remember SoBe
Great if you're up skiing or something but shit if you're going bowling
What's a sobe?
I've never been to /fa/. I dress like a hobo. Those Air sneakers are terrible.
This looks good.
Now this is my favourite Rosa
Catherine Keener has been in some great movies but even if I was back in the '90s when she was attractive I still wouldn't want her to just spit in my mouth
Yeah that's probably the fine is her jumping and fucking dunking on you
heelies and now sobe? what’s next is hugo going to be jacking off cyborgs for their pogs?
Berlin premiere and LA premiere are peak Rosa gorgeousness
I mean 90s punklita is clearly part of this universe too
A disgusting drink that looks like a bottle of Pepto Bismol. It drinks like a smoothie that has been put through a coffee press.
Sounds awful desu was it like a nostalgia thing?
>did somebody say '90s punk?
Finally caught up with these, no weirdness just yet.
I don't know why it originally got popular, but apparently enough people liked it, because it's been around for decades. Of course, until recently, it came in a cool looking glass bottle.
>33 posts
>7 posters
guys this movie came out six months ago and nobody remembers it exists its time to move on
We remember it and always will user
reminder that Rosa is 4 years older than Brie
>six months ago
literally not even trying to be correct anymore, eh?
low energy.
NGE came out 23 years ago and you still it discussed every day on Yea Forums.
go back then

love all of their social media presence. seems like everyone genuinely had a good time. you can see casper liking fan art left and right on instagram.
What is this
SYDNEY represent
It's interesting how sometimes she looks more Latina and sometimes she looks more French
why didn't they just hire a pretty girl for the role?
That would make CGI'ing over the top of this mutt seem redundant and a big waste of money.
Because none of them can act like rosa.
Why did you post this? Does it contribute to discussion?
I was expecting the flip off desu
If she's a mutt then maybe I should take her to the pound

Honestly the saddest threads on Yea Forums.
Imagine being a desperate weeb pretending that you like a movie just because it has a cute animated girl in it.

Ah yes the illustrious home of the snowtown murders
Kek we had someone very recently murder his gf and put her in some barrels. It made the news here too
Adelaides weapon of choice is barrels for some reason
Literally Australia's "fly-over" state.
Could very well be the most boring place on the planet.
>tfw you dress just exactly like Robert Rodriguez minus the hat
tfw you dress exactly like Jon without the eyeliner
Just the last few places in Northern Europe we know about where you can watch Alita. I'm considering combining a sightseeing trip with an outdoor screening this summer - depending on weather forecasts.
...
Cope harder Nairobi Africa user. What's it like over there? 10% "huwhite"?
Are you as buff as him though
Are these guys ever going to review the movie
That's adorable
No I'm not quite as much of a chad
If it were a toss up between visiting Nairobi or visiting Adelaide, you fucking know very well who wins cunt.
(hint it's not fucking Adelaide)
if they dont review a movie when it comes out, is because they cant trash it
I don't care, and no one really should
You already fucking live in Nairobi you daft prick. Adelaide is super white non whites are thrown back out at the border
I don't watch them very often any more but I'm curious what they have to say about it
lewd Rosa
Is this a good crop or is it weird cutting Robert out
they will shit on it and compare it to marvel. every youtuber did this
this is a good reaction image if cutout user can cut rosa alone.
robert ruins the reaction lol
>robert ruins the reaction
lol no
I do love the deal with it energy
RR's smug smiling mouth in the background is pretty good desu
Sure some parts of perth are chock-a-block with niggers, but uhhh. Fucking Adelaide lol, it's where people go to die.
blurays when?
Shouldn't we at least have a korsub by now?
Jesus christ you people need to stop. Coops green is pretty based though
>tfw you don't ruin the reaction
having full robert is great.
cutting him out ruins the reaction
we could ask cutout user to do both, with robert and with out
see
>you just KNOW
>tfw they need to deal with it
This is a criminally underused reaction pic
>tfw you're worth $100M and can basically do whatever you want, and you choose to spend your time with Rosa Salazar
>/ALITA/ - Rosa with fat old men pictures
i'd say within a few months or so. wouldn't want to take away any attention from the endgame pre orders and piss off the mouse or anything
this is what i mean, someone with photoshop could cut out both together,
this would be excellent for reactions
Jon Landau could charm his way into anybody's pants including mine
would you rather have $100M or have Rosa sit on your lap? (Keep in mind you can't buy her out)
I'd rather have $100M, because I could use that to make billions and use the billions to fund the Alita sequels.
People don't even know what a Perth is either yobbo
I thought Perth was a type of fish
Oh now that's a good idea
I think you need Rosa's fingers in there too ;-)
Based Alita funder
People think JC would just up and abandon his 20-year passion project but the dude has $700M and just two of his movies made like $5B put together, he can afford to risk $100M
What are her Jordans? Interested.
I assume they're not actually made
>tfw you're worth several million and can basically do whatever you want, and you choose to spend your time sitting on Jon Landau's lap
FTFY
Fuck. Serves me right going into a thread for a movie I haven't watched yet. Have a nice day anons.
There are licensed Alita sneakers in China, apparently. But I'd probably rather get those Evangelion shoes if I was going to get movie-licensed shoes. I just suspect they're crap - I prefer buying shoes in a store where I can try them on.
Have a nice day user I hope you enjoy the movie when you do see it.

Thank you Todd man!
pretty cool how many shots are referenced in the movie. grew getting bisected and gally/alita’s pose afterwards for instance.
JUST DO IT!
This is not the right time, user
I can't suspend disbelief that the guy who found and rebuilt Alita didn't just do it to use her as a sex doll.
It doesn't make any sense, she clearly is built for the task.
L E W D
The green thing is Caerula's earring, which is actually a data drive containing the Fata Morgana. Also the brain chip is is Nova.
why not now?
No worries fren, sleep well
I just can't, okay??
he was a grieving father and the black chick was his fuck bucket
What do you faggots talk about? Alita is a movie released months ago that won't get a sequel, there's no fresh content to warrant a general
I didn't get that vibe between them. But Ido is a pillar of the community and a doctor, so I'm sure many women are throwing themselves at him.
>implying his assistant was any match for this
Alright people awake at this ungodly hour and fellow ausfags let’s talk Motorball. This commentary and speculation is based off the rules provided by Ido’s journal, and what we actually see occur on screen. I’m going to focus on the ‘cut-throat’ version of the game since it’s what we see in-movie (at least with Alita’s trial, though I think the game she goes to also has individual scoring since we get a brief glimpse of a leader-board at one point.)
Under the rules of cut-throat it’s a free for all, with the winner being the one who accrues the most points by the end of the two sets of ten-lap games (this is assuming the standard rules provided by Ido’s journal.) You can score points in three ways: (1) point for passing a red ring with possession of the ball. There are (3) rings per lap. You get (2) bonus points if you pass it through all three rings in a lap (meaning you score 5 total points that lap). Finally, you score a bonus (5) points if you cross the finish line with the Motorball. Theoretically a perfect game and score is therefore 55 points, though this is hugely unlikely. The important takeaway from this is that you should always try to possess the ball to cross the final lap no matter what, and that you’re much better off having one great lap where you get all three rings and two mediocre ones where you only get one ring (for a total of 7 points) than three laps of two rings each (6 points). With this in mind, I would like to move on to the construction of Motorball bodies for a moment. Assuming a Motorball body is within the rules outlined in pic related, it should broadly adhere to three points of construction.
I mostly lurk, and watch Garand Thumb and Forgotten Weapons videos, but then jump in if a particularly good opportunity arises.
>1. Durability
Especially in free for all games, it is highly likely that the cyborg body the Motorball player has will be seriously battered. It is vital that the body can either take hits or avoid them altogether. As is always the case, there is a necessary sacrifice made between speed and durability, especially given that there are regulations on the power produced by skates. As smaller humanoid bodies have greater flexibility when it comes to varied situations, it is likely that for cut throat games the more specialised heavy-bodied cyborgs are at a disadvantage.
>2. Maintaining Possession/Defence
To win by scoring points, possession must be maintained through the aforementioned rings. Here the challenge of cut-throat Motorball is shown. Since the Motorball itself weights 40kg, holding it will naturally slow a player down compared to those chasing them. Therefore, the player must be able to either avoid or fight off attacks, ranging from basic grabs all the way to the dubiously-legal grindcutters (no projectiles obviously). In order to do so, one could rely on pure speed or evasion, or one can have reactive weaponry (such as Jashugan’s gauntlets). Here there is an arguments for sightly heavier cyborg bodies with lower centres of gravity, as being knocked over and thus losing procession is a clear problem for many of the players with the ball seen throughout the film. Indeed, a non-bipedal design may help immensely here, though it would conversely be much more vulnerable to striking weapons given its relative immobility.
>3. Reclaiming possession.
This comes in two parts. Being able to catch the leader, and then take the ball from them. Here the wide range of weaponry comes in to play. Weapons which can be wielded without the loss of use of a limb are likely helpful for the sake of flexibility, though they will necessarily be smaller than those strapped to a limb. A player can entirely forsake weaponry too, relying only on the abilities of the body to reclaim possession. This may be difficult in a team game with specialised roles but seems much more viable in cut-throat. Finally, a non-bipedal design allows for some unique weapons such as the mace during Alita’s trial compared to the fairly limited weapons available to a convensional cyborg body.
It should also be noted that one can win games in theory by destroying the cyborg bodies of all other competitors and then taking the win by default, though this risks overloading on offensive power and subsequently having no back up plan should the players escape from the attempts to incapacitate them. Furthermore, with pit crews and replacement bodies it seems like this strategy would be more viable in lower leagues where the quality of equipment is lower than in the higher leagues.
>so I'm sure many women are throwing themselves at him.
screwhead tried to fuck him
probably desu
I'd rather have you Rosa sit on my face tbqh.
It's in the journal, Ido got groped by her.
wow I read that as
>she has two anuses
>when she plays motorball for the Fatory Team
Ido literally says "that's not Factory Team" in the movie. Did the author of this even watch it?
JAZZ?
he says that about the big guys in the back
So to defend that line for a moment, it seems that there's pretty clearly an overlap between those who bounty hunt and play low level-motorball, so it's not unreasonable that there would be one or two of them in the factory practice team. However, what surprises Ido is that EVERYONE in the trial apart from Alita is either a bounty hunter or genuine criminal as well. So it's clearly not the factory practice team entirely, even if there's a bit of overlap.
>ywn be groped by a tipsy killer cyborg
why even live bros?
I'm not a jazz fan, but I'll take it any day over bluegrass. FUCK bluegrass.
To hopefully receive the greatest gift.
>That's not Factory Team!
>What?
>These two punks in the back, there are bounty markers on them. And the other guys, they're... Hunter-Warriors!
>hunter warriors not taking out the marks
Dereliction of Duty.
Yeah, and it's unusual that the trial would be JUST hunter warriors, hence why he says it. It still doens't spot specifically Screwhead from being legitimately part of the factory practice team herself. Although the most likely answer is bad communication between parts of the movie.
This thug look is really not working for me. He looks like a tryhard.
at least most of his homies have belts though.
>alita
>double appendix carry without holsters
Dude's gonna be the blackest Unsullied ever
>2005
goddamn they've been planning this movie for 14 years?
Where is the real one
Yeah, I think the blue and red wingmen were expected there, but not so many hunter-warriors or the actual criminals. At least that's how I understood the line.
I could defend the line if Screwhead is known as an occasional motorballer, but that having three hunter-warriors - who don't take out the bountied guys - is a sure sign that something is up.
By the way, requesting that a little bit too over-excited lady in the top left behind Ido and Gerhad. Is she Blue Wingman's mom or something?
fucking KEK
Another stupid Alita thread shitting up the catalog I see. What's the point of these threads? They never seem to contain discussion, just faggy pictures and spam.
That's fucking adorable.
hey man thanks for the bump
Very nice!
YOW! Great Alita discussion we got going in here guys. Proud of you all. Keeping the flicker burning. Fuck you.
THERE ARE 21 GAME OF THRONES THREADS FUCKER. GO COMPLAIN ABOUT THOSE?
huehuehue
>Too lazy to actually scroll up half a page to the actual discussion posts
Fantastic contribution, senpai. Now talk about Motorball tactics, hunter-warrior face budgets, Ido dating Screwhead and the knock-off Motorball merchandise economy of Iron City with us.
I would rather talk about the theoretical science of spittu nanite healing
Game of Thrones is a successful show worth watching and discussing. Flopalita isn't.
I actually find these shitposts funny. I love all of the /Alita/ people no matter what.
thats just his style.
fuck you then, half of those threads are memes or shitposting
we are allowed 150 images per thread.
A bit too disgusted by that Instagram post still. I'd rather not.
If it means the dog could live, then maybe. Just leave me off the spittu train.
That's just because of her abhorrent judgement in choice of spittu-administrator.
If it was [insert your crush here] the game would likely change, eh?
But Vampalita is effectively a female Blade, why would Blade go after Blade? That makes no sense, they're on the same team.
I know it's technically not more disgusting than a full mouthed kiss, but I think even the cutest girl doing that would look disgusting.
>decantering_from_such_a_height.jpg
When sufficiently aroused it is far easier to give in to the idea. Sex is just a series of technically disgusting acts, anyway.
I'm not quite sure the line your following user, please care to elaborate.
That might be the smuggest Landau I've ever seen.
it was the first time they met, he didnt know better
So what you're saying is, we need Blade/Vampalita collab OC now?
lewd, nsfw:
Dude lookin' like Jabba the hut there.
New still just released from Alita 2 movie
>that getup
its like when two heroes fight like daredevil and punisher
we beed alitas face shopped here
Reminder that Rosa is a fuggo
>pushing on Rosa's butt as your job
why even live at this point
I think he's pushing the rig, not her butt.
I'm afraid to say it fren, while most people here will disagree with you, she is on the lower end of the objective female hotness scale.
This would be an awesome group cosplay. A chad in a leather jacket, a stacy in a mocap suit and two guys in blue overalls pushing a gocart.
no
that's the kinda thing she would wear for sure
>she is on the lower end of the objective female hotness scale.
Yes, a fug
>i'm gay
Ya'll are fuckin' whack...
There is nothing disgusting about sex you virgin.
>BR pre-ordered's anytime now...
>I'm sure of it.
hungry user?
>objective female hotness scale
ok
>No oranges
I no joke swapped my morning fruit from apples to oranges until they went out of season because of this film.
Whenever I go for my driving lessons my instructor always seems to be eating an orange, and always offers me one too.
your driving instructor is based
hey quiet hour frens i hope you're all well
pretty sad we’re never going to see any big screen clive lee kino. dude is absolutely based in the manga and ova. can’t see how they’d work him in after hugo being dead, he’s just getting his nod in kansas and no big hat. oh well.
>siiiip
mornin’. keeping comfy and watching later 80s/ early nineties anime here. started with gunnm ova, just finished demon city. love me some wednesday morning.
have a rare alita friend
one of yesterday's alita converts checking in. i can't stop thinking about her lads.
Hey there, time-traveler
Yes, I honestly can't see there being enough time in one movie to jam that much plot in there. I hope that they don't fall to scourge of Japanese movies of anime/manga: Making it fan-service for existing fans and trying to put too many nods in there. They did well with the first movie, and if Clive Lee is in the second one, he might play a rather different role - while staying true to character. McTeague was well liked too, I think - but maybe less is more with him.
Why are her clothes still intact?
blessed
Whouldn't she just be a brain laying on the pavement?
The only thing that protected arnold's internal machinery was his biological skin, she'd doesn't have any biological skin on her at all.
hello fren
Nanomachines, son.
>converted yesterday
>already posting alita k-memes
Interlinked within cells
Intriguingly rare Rosa, you know where this is even from?
they fixed it by hiding her inside a horse
all the pics i have posted are old public pics on twitter
that's actually kinda smart you could get all storts of things through with a big enough biological source
Isn't the T1000 able to shape itself into clothing, like after melting? The only reason for him to be naked while time traveling would be because he doesn't know yet what current-day clothing looks like.
Tell us about your experience. What brought you to her? We're always happy to hear.
as long as you can keep the animal alive long enough, anything can pass
and they can already clone skin so skynet could clone a cow or horse
i lurk a lot on Yea Forums, see the /alita/ general every single time i come here, and decided to watch it solely because of this thread's energy. it was great and heartfelt. i didn't think hollywood could make movies like that anymore.
Now those bags of organs Nova was working on make sense. That was the true purpose of his research.
You got that wallpaper in 3840x2160?
Same here fren, dropped in for a bit. Then decided to watch the movie. Now I'm like $700 down, with all the Alita shit I keep buying.
I call new thread
Think bigger. Blue whale. Could fit a fucking skynet tank in there as long as it survives for 5 mins.
Blessed posts. Tell us your favourite moments in the new thread!
right all around. ‘less is more’ is huge for something like this. james is a master of this in my opinion. for instance the future war scenes in terminator are short but compelling, making you want so much more. but 40 more minutes of future war would’ve diluted the ultimate product into something closer to boilerplate sci-fi. the moon battle scene in alita gave me that same feeling. (yes rob directed but it was all based on jimnotes and he purposely emulated his style)
user please give that HD Alita pape please
Alita in longcoats is fucking PEAK cute and nothing will convince me otherwise.
isnt the time machine small?
this is the only one i got frens
True, they made it just big enough to accommodate a human. Anything bigger would be a waste of resources, especially since they working against the clock.
new new new
>especially since they working against the clock.
It's a TIME MACHINE. You really didn't think that through, did you?
