    I would rather see that than another Avatar.

    Though if Cameron wanted to use his Avatar tech to make a Thundercats movie, I wouldn’t complain.

    I wouldn’t mind, while people have been crapping on it i found it good and compared to some of the recent slop i better than good.

      I mean there is plenty to crap on in the film, the romance being one of them, but overall I enjoyed more of the movie than I disliked it.

      I think if they had dropped the anime eyes gimmick the film would have been better received. I know I saw them and just disregarded the whole film, it just looked so ridiculous. It wasn’t until after a friend said it was an excellent film and bet me to watch it that I did (and they were right).

      I enjoyed the movie until the romance happened.

      If Alita 2 decides to completely cut the love interest I’m sure it’ll be good.

    After hearing how terrible this movie is and how distracting her eyes are and against my better judgement I checked this movie out and wow was everyone exactly right.

    This movie is terrible and her eyes were absurd….

    Happy to hear! I loved Alita. Has always been one of my favorite Mangas, liked the Anime adaptions and just thought they did a really good job translating it to the cinema. Best live action Anime in my opinion!

      I’m just disappointed in how they turned desty nova from one of my favourite villains, the genius who’s entire motivation is setting up the stage in a weird way and laugh as it unravels even if he gets hurt in the process, into a generic mind controlling final boss type.

      With most manga adaptations I find that they water out what makes the characters interesting. Sure a battle manga needs good battle choreography but the reason I’m reading it is because of the characters.

        I have to admit that it’s been quite a while since I read the manga last. That probably saved me from too close comparisons and I could enjoy the movie more on its own terms.
