Doc, tiny correction: there is TWO De Marinies who designed for Alita. Fausto De Martini designed a bunch of stuff mainly for the movie, and Joao De Martini did motorballers for DVD extras.
Here's more about it and more motorballers! www.artstation.com/artwork/gJ4EyK
I hope beyond hope that we get theatrical movie sequels. Please no TV series, made for TV movie, or streaming series.
I hope so too, but something is better than nothing. So if no movie sequels, then please at least a tv series to sum up the rest of the story... Maybe not like a tv series where it's expected to continue forever, but more like a mini-series with a planned ending would be much better in my opinion.
I will only accept and anime series animated by a Japanese anime studio.
Agreed. Something me and my girl love to do is go to a movie theatre and have dinner together as a outing. Alita was one of those we thoroughly enjoyed a lot. Bought the Blu-Ray already. Love it. Joker and Alita might be the best films of 2019 in my personal opinion. Bottom line is, I am scared streaming will stop the movie theatrical releases, since I go there a lot. Really do not want to see the classic movie tradition die out like this.
Alita Cinematic Universe!
Please someone will tell me that ALITA SEQUEL is coming or not please
ALITA!!!!!! ALITA!!!!!!! ALITA!!!!!!!
AAA LEEEEEEEE TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH
2nd Update: More really good news: Good news! The Numbers just updated Alita bluray sales. They adjusted upward by 55,289 units the 4 prior weeks. Blu ray sale for 8/25 were 24,390, down just 3%. That's much better. Here is a link: www.the-numbers.com/movie/Alita-Battle-Angel-(2019)#tab=video-sales Since The Numbers revised the Alita bluray sales in units, Alita has been ahead of Ready Player One in units every week, as follows: 109%; 108.8%; 105.9%; 104.8%; and 105.6%. There is a good chance BluRays will hit 800,000 prior to Thanksgiving.
Update: On 9/13, Rosa Salazar did an Instagram post thanking fans for all the postcards she received for Alita Appreciation Day.
Rosa's 9/9 Instagram post is significant in that it suggests that she has been watching Doc Ido's videos (and other Alita videos) and that she reads posts to her Instagram account. And Rosa does respond to those posts. That being the case, members of the Alita Army could do posts to her Instagram account asking her for an update on the status of an Alita sequel.
Keep in mind that tomorrow, 9/13, Rosa's new series UNDONE becomes available for purchase on Amazon Prime, so she will probably be doing interviews with the media to promote UNDONE, and she may mention Alita.
Here's a prediction. The Numbers may update the 8/25 Alita Blu Ray sales this Saturday morning (like they did last week), and the numbers of Blu Rays sold will probably be up to about 30,000 units. MediaPlayNews reported for that week that Alita went from 6th play to 7th place in Blu Ray sales, and the prior week's 24,597 units was very low due to Avengers Endgame. It is likely that people simply postponed buying Alita Blu Rays for a week or two, and some of those sales will occur in the 8/25 numbers. And the following week 9/1 is the Labor Day weekend. Last year Ready Player One went up 61% on that weekend from the prior weekend, because Labor Day weekend is a big shopping weekend. So expect Alita Blu Ray sales to get a similar big increase - perhaps to 40,000 units. Note that Labor Day weekend in 2018 saw 2 other movies with big increases - Rampage went up 37% and Predator 3 went up 38%. So Alita going up 33% - from 30,000 to 40,000 - seems quite possible. MediaPlayNews reported that for the week 9/1, Alita Blu Ray sales went from 7th place to 9th place, so you would expect a 10% drop, but increased Labor Day sales and postponed sales should counteract that.
Rosa's new series UNDONE is getting rave reviews, and people who stream that series are likely to become Rosa Salazar fans and buy the Alita Blu Rays. And if Terminator Dark Fate becomes a big box office hit, which seems likely, people who see that movie are also more likely to then go out and buy Alita on Blu Ray. The timing of Terminator Dark Fate is great, since it should boost Alita Black Friday weekend sales.
Also interesting is what you don't hear. You don't see articles saying that there is no chance for an Alita sequel, or that Alita: Battle Angel was a flop.
This has been a memorable week. When Rosa Salazar did her 9/9 Instagram post, I immediately felt that the chances of an Alita sequel shot up by at least 10%. Rosa is not an insignificant actress, and Alita: Battle Angel is not an insignificant movie.
Apparently, you are a SIGNIFICANT Alita fan.
@@louisgut1 Anyone who likes Alita: Battle Angel can't be all bad.
Also, Here are some interesting terms mentioned on various Alita posts on reddit:
Waifu is a term for a fictional character, usually in anime or related media, that someone has great, and sometimes romantic, affection for.
Mash note - noun - a letter that expresses infatuation with or gushing appreciation of someone.
Sometimes referred to as "Script Immunity" or a "Character Shield", Plot Armor is when a main character's life and health are safeguarded by the fact that he's the one person who can't be removed from the story.
I wouldn't say to all keep asking her about the Alita sequel, that could get annoying. I think it's better if we comment that we WANT an Alita sequel and tell her in your own works why you loved the movie and/or her performance in the movie.
@@TalkingHands308 How does this sound: Dear Rosa, would you please bitch-slap those morons at Disney and tell them to greenlight an Alita sequel? And while you're at it, slap them again and say, "That's for Spider man!"
@@charlesschmidt804 The "Waifu" term is interesting to me. I'm a movie fan, have been for a very, very long time. Like clockwork, I see a movie once week. I try to catch new releases in the theater if something decent is playing. If not, I'll catch an old movie. Now, I rarely see movies more than once. So, after going to Alita a fifth time or so, I asked myself "Why?" I think that I figured it out by my 10th Alita visit to the theater. But, the movie blogger, Filmento, captured it perfectly in this YouYube, "Alita Battle Angel - How to Manipulate the Audience | Film Perfection", ruclips.net/video/9GpoCXpTSA8/видео.html
Rosa Salazar asks Alita fans to buy the Blue Rays. I bought my 26 Alita Blue Rays 3 Collector Edition and 6 Steelbooks and my buddy bought 17 BlueRays and 2 Collector Editions, If we want Alita 2, then you buy all the Alita products you can get. #Alitaarmy #RosaSalazar #Alitawin
That's a lot of Blue Rays. But make sure to also buy the Blu Rays... ;-)
What are you going to do with all those blu Ray's exactly? I got 4 copies (bluray/dvd combo, 4k blu ray, Best Buy stylebook, and FilmArena limited edition (Only 600 copies made strictly for hardcore fans which comes with lots of cool stuff) which is awesome. Those 4 copies are for me..
When you first posted this a month or so ago I gave you a like, because I thought it was awesome to see your support of this great movie. However (please don't take this badly) since you have posted it on every one of Doc Ido's videos since, it feels like you are gloating or taunting. Most of us don't have a $1,000 to spend. I bought the Stealbook, and 6 copies right away, and if I can I try to buy a new copy when I am in a store where it is being sold. I feel good about it because I am supporting something I have a passion about, but then I read your post and think I am not doing enough and it makes me feel bad.
Thank you so much for supporting Alita, but maybe tone it down a little?
Bruh... Good for you. However, what are you going to do with so many copies? Give them away to friends or family once this is all over?? Just being curious.
That's a lot of stupid...er, blue rays.
I really liked Alita: Battle Angel, but there is an unhealthy obsession for a movie that I'm seeing.
I’m supporting for alita, and hopping we get a sequel of Alita battle angel
Disney needs to greenlight the sequel(s) but leave the creative team in place and keep out of the film themselves. I'd rather have no sequel than a Disney-fied Mary Sue version of Alita.
Alita herself could never be a Mary sue. She already got beat up at least twice so she is due for some ass kickery lol
@@jimmyclimer594 Just an FYI... she is beaten down many more times but always rises stronger and better for what she has learned from her failures.
@@Wingnut353 my point was just that a Mary sue is never beaten so alita can never be a Mary sue.
@Simon Chase That's a good point. No one tells James Cameron what to do
I hope Disney has nothing to do with any Alita sequel-find a different studio.
Thanks Doc for the free repairs. We needed some good news. I hope we get the same team for Fallen Angel, they did such an awesome job. Love and peace to all fans of Alita Battle Angel 🍊🍫♥️
Hey Doc, China has 900% of the number of theaters than it did back then, but not only more theaters, but more screens per theater, that is an increase of 1200%... So the fact that Avatar made that much money back then and it took so much work for Endgame to beat it now that one of the biggest markets for films have 12x the number of screens really says a lot about Avatar's accomplishments.
Yeah, without China's ginormous theater expansion, Endgame wouldn't even be touching Avatar 10 years after! Also China is the biggest 3D market today, the majority of tickets sold for Endgame were 3D over there (around 87%). Approximatively 1 billion dollars worth of tickets worldwide were actually 3D and 4DX accounted for 37M dollars worldwide. 4DX didn't exist in 2009. Imagine Avatar in 4DX with current chinese theater market...
@@deadstar44 Yep, which is why I found it hilarious people who were shrugging off Avatar. And I'm not saying this because I'm a fanboy. Actually I enjoyed Endgame more than Avatar. I'm a huge Marvel nerd and have seen all of them, buy all of their movies (steelbooks mostly), and saw Endgame 4 times in theaters. But facts are facts, Avatar accomplished what it did when it was harder to do so. Endgame has immense inflation and a much larger market for movies in its favor. To shrug off Avatar's accomplishment is simply stupid, but the Marvel fanboys do this every chance they get and it's kind of hilarious how clueless they are...
Avatar was alo in theaters a whole lot longer
@@dakdude4 This is the one argument the Marvel fanboys love to make but unfortunately it actually speaks WELL of Avatar, not ill of it. Do you honestly think that theaters would keep running a movie if it's not profitable? Movies staying in theaters longer is actually a sign that they are selling well in ticket sales. Or do you actually think theaters would keep running a movie in empty auditoriums? Yes it was in theaters longer, the reason is because people kept coming to watch it... So thanks for supporting my argument.
@@dakdude4 Because Avatar had a much better WOM and legs than Endgame. Avatar barely dropped from weekends to weekends, from weeks to weeks, even jumped at times which is totally abnormal and showed that audience was still coming in droves regularly that it barely suffered the usual +50% drops that CBM experience once the hype is over past the first two weeks.
Endgame was released simultaneously on the most staggering amount of screens worldwide the same weekend by Disney. It was pure hype forcing people to watch it on opening weekend on a massive scale giving it the biggest headstart in theater exhibition all at once because they knew that it would drop quickly once the initial rush is over. Legs were average once that big weekend cleared up. The total antithesis of Avatar which started moderately and kept a steady pace for 3 months straight that it would barely drop. Its legs are exceptional as a result.
ALITA FOREVER!

Rosa Salazar💖💖💖💖
Alita belongs on the Big Screen! There is SO MUCH potential and material to be mined. A TV show would be nice, but only in addition to a movie trilogy. I just hope we aren't waiting 20 years for the sequel like with Avatar.
Its refreshing to hear about Avatar news even if it's not anything significant
For better or worse, both Avatar and Alita's fates are directly linked. The VFX of Alita will likely be implemented into Avatar 2 and Avatar 2 being a hit increases the chances of an Alita sequel.
Obviously if Alita goes into production Doc Ido and the Alita Army can go on indefinitely.
I just have been wanting to say whether it blazes on in glory or goes dormant for a few months, you really made something of this news and fandom channel. You create consistantly good content that doesn't feel repetitive. I look forward to it, its rhythms and catch phrases. I'm very impressed especially as I was one of your biggest critics for a short time. You have given it an aggressive style and made it your own. You built her a pair of fast legs.
Wow, your combination admission and praise works pretty well too!
That's Great News!!! Let's keep continuing our support for Our Angel Alita!!! Thank you very much Doc for another Great Repair!!!!! Go Alita the Eternal 99!!!!!
I was in the 8th grade in 2009. My God, avatar is already 10 years old...
I have never clicked on something so fast
@Optimus Prime You guys are so funny.
The video on her Instagram is soo heart touching ❤️
Hey guys, may I join the Alita Army? Because even though I didn’t watch it when it came out back in January, February or March(correct me if I’m wrong), because I’ve been busy with my assignments and stuff. I found it quite intriguing especially I’ve seen a lot of positive reviews from it.
Of course! Came out Feb 14 in the US :) anyone can "join" it's just a name for supporters. We support Alita and that's our only goal. We aren't against anything or anyone just pro Alita and hoping for a sequel
There's no need to ask anyone, everyone is part of #AlitaArmy as long as they want to be. Those idiots who are trying to "regulate" who can use the hashtag are exactly that, idiots, ignore the idiots.
Kaptain Lightcoin What’s the basic training I have to do?
@@josephdizon3493 All you need to do is register at i-do-not-stand-by-in-the-presence-of-evil.com/ . You'll need a Twitter account!
@@josephdizon3493 Don't listen to them, you don't need to "register" for anything. That's freakin' ridiculous...
You make a good point about the city already being built. Not only would the sequel be far cheaper (although still expensive), but an investment of that magnitude would be too much of a waste in the future. I also think that even though we'll get an Alita sequel, it may take some time. The VFX team that made it a reality is working on Avatar 2, and the Disney-Fix merger may have postponed some plans in the funding. Cameron has gotten funding elsewhere, but it's not always so simple. It'll work out, things just need to be discussed and arranged first.
Yaaay!!!
Thanks Doc! Another excellent free repair! 🥰 👍
Tomorrow i watch Undone. Everytime i hear Rosa's voice, i think Alita !
Full Steam Ahead Hunter Warrior's For The Sequel.....To Infinity and Beyond.....
Thanks for the updates. I would miss half this stuff without ya
Thanks for sharing about Jon Landau's encouraging posts and especially Rosa's spin on the Endgame tag line "I love you 3000" with her "I love you #99" . At least that's how I'm taking it.😉 It's as if they're telling the #AlitaArmy; "We're all in this fight together. " Stay focused and positive.😊👍 Alita: Fallen Angel!
Thx Ido. Great job :-) We need this sequel. And today I watched Undone. That series is pretty amazing!
If they do a TV series make it about McTeague. Have Alita on the big screen
Well is a bit of potential room for some spin-off material
I agree. I would be down with some more McTeague and his Hellhounds! Or whatever they're called. And the little dog also got a cyber body in a clip that was deleted from the movie.
Break Off
Rosa is watching and knows the love and adoration that this movie has created amongst it's fans. She will be portraying Alita again soon enough, this movie must have made a mint , all told. As far as the blu rays figures are concerned...I just don't believe them...they seem way to low as far as I am concerened. Wishful thinking maybe...but I don't think so. Thanks Doc for the info, as always.
Can always tell when you're in a great mood and it's infectious. :)
Yesssss awesome 😁 clicked as quick as I could of 😆
Optimus Prime - The original Star Wars in '77 was the last cultural wave(on the level or close to the Beatles on Ed Sullivan in the early 60s)that I can remember sweeping the country. What 80s flick are you referring to?
Part of the reason Cameron is somewhat unpopular within Holloywood. Is that he's never been satisfied with the status quo. That's a good thing and I wish more directors were like him.
Cameron was one of the few who was heavily critical of how 3D was being used post Avatar. Saying that if Studios continue to post-process films.
It would ruin the technology chances in the future. Of course Cameron was right here. As we only had just a handful of films.
Which were filmed in true 3D using a 3D camera and not post-process. Battle Angel in itself was also a significant advancement.
Along which was also filmed in 4DX. One of the very few movies that has taken advantage of the new emerging technology.
But probably one of the most important points we should remember here. Is that Cameron does not need Disney's permission to do a sequel.
Disney does not own the rights to Battle Angel Cameron does. If he so chooses he could just pick a different studio. Which at this stage might not be such a bad idea really, just saying. :)
James Cameron's got the heart of a rebel. I mean that as a compliment. He doesn't let the idiots in Hollywood control him and will fight them tooth and nail to get his movies done the way HE envisions them. Judging by Jon Landau's quiet but steadfast loyalty to him over the last 20 years, I think he has a similar spirit.
Alway's great hearing you Doc.. Alway's something good brewing for Alita.. Never worry friend's, it'll get even better.. The HomMed sale's are behaving normally and will again rise.. What an absolutely beautiful post from Rosa, thanks once again Doc.
Great job as usual Doc Ido. Passed on 4 Alita Blu-rays as presents so far this month (1 more to go). The 3 responses received so far have been overwhelmingly positive - Alita is easy to love. Bring on the sequels!
James Cameron is a cool guy.
0:54 lol at my comment on that post showing in your video. :-D
He wouldn’t create new motorball players for no reason. There’s a sequel coming
Avatar's and Titanic's successes along with Gone With The Wind and Sound of Music were due to repeat viewings of Women.
Doc, great video as always, thank you for not going the route others have of trying to sensationalize things by taking things out of context. Reporting the facts like only Doc Ido can do.
Thank you, sir. You are doing an excellent job!
Thanks Doc for a great update. I'll still happy to wait for the right people to make the sequel right
The #AlitaArmy on both FB and Twitter are planning a home media buying push on Black Friday/Cyber Monday. #BattleAngelBlackFriday #BuyAlitaBlackFriday #CyberGirlAlitaMonday
Get behind it, folks!
Love the movie own 4 copies but that's it for me.
Hope it gets a sequel. Alita battle Angel was a top film.
Thanks Doc....just bill me, free repairs you say? 🤓
Hi Doc - Just noticed that 'The Numbers' have published some more data on Alita Blu Ray sales in the US - and they have SIGNIFICANTLY revised the figures for TOTAL Alita Blu Rays sales UP (circa 635k units!) Good news Alita fans!!
Go for it! A second movie. I would watch it multiple times again :D
DOC do those moon effects in “Ad Astra” look familiar?? #WETA ftw
Why didn’t they just use WETA for Terminator: Dark Fate?
bassplayer807 not sure, but I speculate the designs for Dark Fate lean towards keyframing, which WETA just doesn’t like doing as much as particles, textures, atmospherics and capture...
WETA didn't do the Moon scenes, they were done by Rising Sun Pictures- www.awn.com/news/rising-sun-pictures-springs-action-foxs-alita-battle-angel If they did it the same way as Motorball, WETA will have supplied a pre-rendered Alita for them to use. Simulating the Moon is relatively simple as there's no atmosphere so no convection, Brownian motion or anything like that to complicate things, it's just pure particle interactions. Puffs of gas from explosions and muzzle blasts would make it more difficult, though.
Another great video Doc. I hope that if it does take until after Avatar 2 or 3 before we hear about Alita, you will still be posting videos 🍊🍊🍫🍫
Cameron should worry less about Avatar and more about Terminator the way things are looking there.
Also the first person they should've brought on board for Alita to design stuff should have been Yukito Kishiro, the original creator. I primarily want to see his designs put to screen, and other people working to bring them from paper into the CG world.
@Doc Ido
3:17 I don't think that most blurays sales have already happened in France. For example, Avengers infinity war sold as much blurays on Amazon.fr in 2018 than in 2019.
So, since the Alita steelbook is sold out on Amazon France since a week, it could become a problem. The minimum price for an Alita steelbook on Amazon France is now 55 dollars per unit. Do you know if Amazon France are going to replenish their Alita steelbook stock? Could you please write an email to them to talk about this problem? Because it is important to have a sequel.
Doc Ido thanks for the love of Alita. We will NEVER stand by in the presence of EVIL. #AlitaArmy.
Any word yet about Blu-ray / DVD sales in other countries?
There is no website that covers Blu Ray sales for all of Europe. However, this UK website reports that Alita: Battle Angel is currently #7 in its 7th week: www.officialcharts.com/charts/blu-ray-chart/ Alita: Battle Angel hit #1 in the UK it its first week. Reports from France and Germany show similar sales - which were good. The overall impression is that Alita: Battle Angel is selling very well in Europe and the rest of the world.
@@charlesschmidt804 Thank you!
Hi Doc - another great update - thanks! It's going well and I think there IS significance in Jon Landau posting 'Alita-themed' content - maybe a little hint that things really are progressing behind the scenes for the Alita sequel! I'm sure James Cameron will return to Alita is soon as he can untangle himself from the Avatar sequels. I agree with him that we should be optimistic that people will still want to see films on the BIG screen - no matter how good streaming/blu ray is - it does not compare to watching movies in the theatre!
I saw Alita in 3D on the biggest IMAX screen in the UK - WOW, nothing compares to that viewing! On to the sequel !!
Streaming will never completely replace theaters. It's a different experience. Sometimes you just need to get out of the house and do something different for a while.
The worst problem with movie theaters is that popcorn eaters make noise.
Cameron paved the way for what streaming became... His Beauty and the Beast and Dark Angel television series were pushing firsts on several levels! Had he not made the Linda Hamilton show for paid television or pushed the top dollar mark on cable productions, would we really have HBO series that are must-see-TV ventures? Avatar pushed the boundaries for films like Endgame to be successful... Making the cinematic experience worth pursuing, creating a lure that can't wait for more inferior avenues of distribution! The real question would be how he could continue that trend with a sequel that is taking nearly forever to make, on a diminishing concept with a cinematic 3D experience? What will be his draw, now that people had picked his first one apart and discovered that it was basically Ferngully with aliens! Or, should he go back to television or a streaming platform to reinvent himself once again?
Just bought another copy last week. There is 3 copies left at my walmart and if they are still there next week i will be buying them.
Great vid.
Alita 2 will make a shit ton more money that the first, this is what I believe they are banking on.
If the pattern of release Cameron laid out right after Avatar holds, it will be Avatar 2 first, and then Alita 2 about 12 months later. So it is at least a year out, maybe more like two or three. After Avatar 3, I'd like to see a prequel to Alita done, about the events leading up to and including the fall.
If Cameron needs me to support avatar 2 to get an Alita sequel I'll do it!
Darth Smythe Same. I’m been waiting for almost 10 years for the sequels. So I’m hoping that the story in Avatar 2 will be better. Plus, I hope that Alita will have a sequel as well because I’m intrigued to it. I might decide to watch online and then buy either the blue rays or DVDs of it.
I remember Cameron already stating that there will be two more sequels ...he stated that he has control over it , not Fox or Disney . He had the rights to Alita for years now ...
Exactly Fox and especially Disney should stay away from this. And yes Cameron has the rights Kenshiro gave those rights to him not the companies and since he's one of the most famous directors and moviemakers in general he decides what to do and how with the movie.
Thanks Doc for free repairs, Queen Rosa Salazar response to us is the great moment, Jon also want to keep the buzz going that's all great for Alita. #AlitaArmy #RosaSalazar #ILoveYou99
I saw it in IMAX 3d. Also bought the 4K/3d steelbook. 😎
I got the steelbook too ...
Not sure why Cameron, Mendelson and other industry buffs think that streaming is gonna kill the cinema experience. They do realize that Netflix and its ilk were created as an alternative to Cable tv right? Streaming and the cinema experience are complimentary in nature not adversarial. Hell studies are beginning to trickle out that people who stream a lot actual go to the cinema MORE than people who don't. John Campea of all people just covered this recently.
Blaming everything on streaming is a lot easier than Hollywood actually acknowledging the very real problems with its business model such as ridiculously high ticket prices, #diversity/inclusion pandering to cover up crappy storytelling, out of control spending, an unwillingness to take risks, overeliance on superhero movies, cgi overload, creators attacking fans, and so on and so forth.
Bottomline is people still want to go to the movies but Hollywood is doing everything possible to prevent them/alienate them from doing so.
Vaporious2000 the difference being TV and sound technology has become so good that the experience can be far better at home than in theaters. Before, there was no way you could get movie theater quality and sound in the home at an affordable price.
I think James Cameron knows that idiots in Hollywood are pushing audiences away. He's not doing it because he's not stupid, but he seems to be trying to warn the rest of Hollywood as politely as possible that they're destroying themselves from the inside. Maybe some good old James Cameron fire would smack some sense into them. Or maybe it would destroy his career because "white man bad" and all that shit.
Oh I cannot wait for a sequel to this film.
Endgame wasn't even that good. I literally fell asleep in the theater and wanted to leave.
You are wrong, my friend. It was not good - at all! Time will reveal what a hot 🔥 mess that movie was. It will not hold up, unlike Alita: Battle Angel.
@@tonysantiago255 It's a shame that Endgame sucked because Infinity War actually will hold up. Thanos was the greatest cinematic villain since Heath Ledger's Joker. Why wasn't Josh Brolin even nominated for an Oscar when Infinity War came out? Apart from Rosa Salazar, he's the only person since Heath Ledger died who 100% deserved it because as amazing as Gary Oldman was in The Darkest Hour, nobody's going to care about that movie in 10 years time. Anyway, ranting about how biased the Oscars are these days aside, the movie built around Thanos was well crafted too.
I believe that the reason Endgame was such a mess is that the Russo Brothers decided "fuck this. We're done" when they realised Kevin Feige had decided to go woke. It's not that they COULDN'T have made Endgame good, it's that they simply didn't care enough to try. In some ways, that might actually be even more tragic because Kevin Feige's stupidity and cowardice in the face of the SJWs and feminazis caused two passionate filmmakers to just phone it in.
However, at least Infinity War had a satisfactory, albeit dark, conclusion that tied everything up, except Doctor Strange's plan but all it takes to explain that is a little creativity. My explanation is that when Strange told Tony "It was the only way" he wasn't offering hope but was instead saying "Thor blew our only chance because he didn't go for the head". Anyway, people can treat Infinity War as the true end of the MCU. Just cut out Craptain Marvel's teaser and the "Thanos will return" line at the end and boom, you have a complete story. It's actually a bit fucked up that Infinity War will be remembered as the Russo Brothers' magnum opus since it ends in the villain winning but to be fair, The Dark Knight was the same even though the Joker's victory wasn't as literal as Thanos'.
Alita sales were adjusted up by 40k
I hope there is a second film. I rather enjoyed the first.
*highest of all-time unadjusted for inflation
Alita is my favourite movie of the year
If “Rising of the Shield Hero” can lead by example (with both second and third season announcements despite creators admitting their plan was only for a single season) then it proves that FANS “Rising” up and showing their support will drive producers to significantly consider a sequel for Alita as well. My only concern is with Disney. I’m not such a fan of them lately.
it is so great to hear
Yes!! More original good sci-fi please! Encouraging thoughts on possibly more Alita: thanks Doc! I hope you are well. 🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊🍊
Everyone check out Rosa’s new project on Amazon, “Undone”: I sat for a special screening at Alamo Drafthouse on #Alitaday #loveyou99... it’s PHENOMENAL and whether you like it or hate it, ‘get it’ or not, it demands a watch; and of course Rosa is iconic as always
#AlitaArmy
Imo I still believe that Cameron has to move the Alita franchise,movies,universe etc to another company and let greedy Disney especially and Fox stay away from this. I know it is very difficult to do such a thing but with the fame he has and the fact that Kenshiro gave the rights to Cameron exclusively, he decides what to do with the movies and how so he could possibly take the rights to another movie studio that will (probably) treat the franchise better. Probably. Like Universal ( which could also mean an Alita attraction in the Universal Studios Park)or Paramount. But since the second movie is going to be made under Fox and Disney distribution I say Fox to take full handle of this movie and not Disney.
well finally i heard a good news on sequel but not tv series or other crap i want real movie like alita
Please Disney give us a sequel!
James Cameron didn't make ALITA ,he did the story
Yes everyone knows that, but he did give Rodriguez the permission to make the movie..
@@DjJokerr There's a very high likelihood that, that "permission" may well at least be a request from now on. There's not a lot of room for the notion of permission within James Cameron's description of Robert Rodriguez as being "insanely collaborative"! Instead I'm hearing love and respect.
@@wideeyedoldguy5638 Robert Rodriguez might be the most versatile filmmaker alive. Put that guy behind a camera and he can do everything. Writing, directing, sound, CGI, practical effects, camera work, you name it. I think James Cameron can technically do all that too - in the CGI department he can do it better - but he doesn't need to because people practically trip over each other for a chance to work with the most powerful filmmaker in Hollywood. After they've worked with him, some people like Kate Winslet don't want to do so again - he's kind of like Stanley Kubrick in that way, as well as in his attention to detail - but people who are made of sterner stuff like Rosa Salazar, Sigourney Weaver and Michelle Rodriguez jump at a chance to collaborate with him again. In Michelle's case, it seems like she did her cameo as Gelda more as a favour to James than anything else because she was uncredited.
The fact that James was willing to hand Alita over to Robert at all shows that he trusts him completely. He's been guarding Alita like an overprotective parent for 21 years so he wouldn't give the reins to another director unless he knew, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that said director would honour his vision. That's not just a relationship between colleagues. That's real friendship.
@@tomnorton4277 Rodriguez is a passionate filmmaker who's in it for the artistry, not the money, and on top of that, he's been known to work wonders on a minimal budget. He was the perfect choice to direct and I look forward to what he does with the sequels :)
I like the new motorball designs but not every cyborg needs to have a human face plastered on it. The manga is full of cyborgs that have no interest in appearing human.
Interesting, a la robocop and his robocop 2 drug addled nemesis.
Do the 4K Blu-rays count under the Blu-ray category or are they completely separate? Because I bought the movie in 4K
God i hope so!
I'll see it!
Just let the man do what he wants
A 900% increase is actually 10 times more.
Exactly. It IS 10x more
Well to get knit picky. Saying 10 times more is actually the same as saying 11 times as much.

So, a 900% increase is only 9 times more, not 10 times. But it is 10 times as much.
Hope I confused you. LOL
@@my3dviews Not confused. You are right of course. I jumped the gun and the Doc was probably correct in the first place (can't remember if he said "more" or "as much", and I don't feel like checking :)
@@chmd22 Okay. :-)
Dont screw us disney, give us a new alita, and don't fuck it up with your disney ways.
Isn't 'Suicide Squad 2' actually 'Birds of Prey'?
Don't see a sequel happening anytime soon....the dvd numbers are ok but not great... who knows?
😌😌😌😌
I will support an Alita Sequel as much as I can up til the point I hear that it's made by Disney. If Disney is behind it, my support will cease. I draw the line there.
James Cameron holds the film rights to Alita exclusively, not Fox or Disney, so I'm pretty sure he has total creative control on what happens next :)
Who the f*ck buy's Cap. Marvel products?
The movie was nothing special...
Endgame end Capitã Marvel is shit movie .
