David Hingtgen Posted July 10, 2018 Posted July 10, 2018 I got a trailer for this in front of Ant-Man 2—-But I think it’s the one we saw before, and it said “July”. So either they were supposed to show a new trailer but got the old one, or the new one is very similar and the change to Dec is so recent the new trailer still says July. Quote

TehPW Posted July 19, 2018 Posted July 19, 2018 is that the toy trend these days? Sixth scale as opposed to 1/6th scale? Quote

jenius Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 I talked to a sideshow guy, that is an early mock up and they expect to make minor revisions, like to the hair. Quote
TehPW Posted July 20, 2018 Posted July 20, 2018 So that's her in the Berserker "suit". Does that mean she will be seen in the later part of the movie in it? It's been ssssssssssssssssssssoooooooooooooooooooooooooo many years since I've read the Manga novels that I forget exactly when she replaces her body with that. Quote

Creepy eyes and all, still making me want to pull the manga off the shelf and give it another readthrough. Quote

kajnrig Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Meh. Liked the first trailer more. Still middle of the road on hype. Quote
TangledThorns Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Looks amazing, love the look! Can't wait. Quote
electric indigo Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 There might still be a good movie in there, but the trailer puts me off even more than the first one. At the moment, I see another Spy Kids episode. I never imagined the Scrapyard in such vibrant colors, but more like a District 9 place. Let's see how the telenovela style mixes with the ultraviolence that is a cornerstone of the manga. Quote
M'Kyuun Posted July 23, 2018 Posted July 23, 2018 Agree with the comments that it lacks the apropos amount of grittiness, but as far as being an adaptation of a manga/anime, I think they've done a decent job making it look so. The cyborgs look pretty good, and definitely evoke an anime vibe. Thinking they could have deep sixed the love story and trudged right on into gory ass-kicking. Curious to see how it turns out. Seeing the big cyborg dude, I can't help but think of the Boomers from Bubblegum Crisis. I wouldn't mind an adaptation of that either. I think it'd work well as a series on Netflix, or one of the other premium channels, where they can create a longer story arc, build the world, and explore the characters better. They have the budgets and lack of content restraint over regular tv that would serve the medium more effectively. Quote

Hells, why not both? regardless, I growled and howled with delight with this new trailer. I have full and utter confidence that this movie is gonna be F*&^ing EPIC! Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 Well, the art of the guy with the extending fingers, and Alita's various arms, makes me think that they're trying to be a bit true to the manga. So that's good. Quote
slaginpit Posted July 24, 2018 Posted July 24, 2018 Whats that about Alien Armor? I dont remember any Aliens In Alita Quote
Thom Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 I liked the first trailer and this just kicked it up a high notch! The first was mysterious and melancholy especially with In the Arms of an Angel playing, but this one definitely amps up the action. I want to say I remember seeing the anime, but I only vaguely recall it. The imagery looks great, the atmosphere of the world they're in which is apparently three centuries past a devastating war is intriguing and I want to see her kicking major cyborg butt! I love stories like this, with a person out of her time and element, trying to find out who she is and fighting for the world she finds herself in. Whatever reason they needed to pause this since the last trailer half a year ago I'm fine with. Now I wish it was December already! Quote
Sanity is Optional Posted July 25, 2018 Posted July 25, 2018 I think the only anime was a short OVA of motorball. There's quite a few manga volumes though. 9 in the initial series, then another 19 in the second series. Quote
sh9000 Posted September 29, 2018 Posted September 29, 2018 New release date is February 14, 2019. Quote
technoblue Posted September 29, 2018 Posted September 29, 2018 Bummer. On the bright side, I should have no problem finishing my read through the manga before the movie debut. Quote
