      You sir did an outstanding job on what in my opinion was one of the five best movies of all time. I didn't feel it was great on its' surface because of some profound subject matter, it was just so clearly a work of love and it SHOWED!

    Here’s another plus: the color inversion between Alita’s doll body and the berserker body. The manga is in black and white, and the ova uses the same body from the start, so this change is all on the filmmakers. The doll body is white and gold, like ivory or porcelain. It looks pure, clean, and fragile. It looks like an expensive toy, like she could be wound up and let loose. The berserker body is the opposite, black and purple. It looks hard, flexible, and just shy of indestructible. You can tell at a glance that these two bodies are vastly different from one another in both shape and color. That’s a clever use of visual design.

      Keep in mind all kunzlers use strengthened cyborg bodies and use vibration techniques to deflect the momentum out of numerous types of bullets. Only way to really kill them is to shoot their eyes or mouths

      Perfect way to introduce a new audience to your Anime/Manga. Do not leave out a lot and don't change much. You can determine the pace from the length of the Manga/Anime. I feel dragonball live adaptation would have been done this way. From the day Napa and Vegita arriving on earth to when Goku finally defeats Frieza it would have been great.

      @Radio Kaos I understand but I don't know both the Manga or Anime so it was a good intro to the Anime because that's where I start and started with a lot of other ones. Most people don't read but would watch any story! I think if they did the whole two DBZ: Battle of the Gods and the Golden Freiza one as Live adaptation and basically did everything like they did in the movies it would have worked well! That Dragonball Evolution pretty much messed with any attempt at a live adaptation at least for the next 5 years unless the actual Japanese make it.

      It is an amazing manga still ongoing after 30 years. Sadly it never got much fame because the short anime OVA kinda flopped in Japan and James Cameron bought the animemation rights with the adaptation rights in the late 90s, so it never had the change to get a newer, more mainstream adaptaion. JoJo's Bizarre Adventure is also an ancient manga with a 90s OVA adaptation but managed to get quite the second wind with the TV show in the 2010s.

      @Perial51 5 лет назад +3

      @not that serious the source material is for me also way better, but what we got put into one movie with the thought to appeal to a western audience, I think the movie did justice to the original. A huge part of the manga is the concrete confrontation with different philosophies in a dystopian world where everyone has to find his place. If that would have been picked for the movie I think it would have been way more complicated to follow the movie or rather one of the originals core elements. For me the movie felt very much anime despite some criticism I had towards the movie. I hope so much that if a second part is in the making, they do Desty Noca justice. He is such a unique antagonist in the original, that I hope they won't just make him the generic mad scientist. Because being mad and a scientist he has so much value to the universe, he needs to be the way he was in the manga. And I hope Alita will go on suffer the losses she had until now. Because the journey of Alita is road of sorrow and is as important for me as everything else in this piece of art.
      Alita is by far my most favorite female protagonist in modern media. If someone knows other well made female characters. I would appreciate it (like Toph from ATLA e.g.)

    @Papadragon18 5 лет назад +186

    I didn't know of the Manga or the Anime before watching this. I immediately realized it was based of a Manga as soon as Dr Dyson mentioned "Panzerkunst", but otherwise, had no idea.
    I went into it expecting a stupid, but beautifully made action piece. And... I got a beutifully made action piece, with almost absurdly great acting. Far greater than the plot has any right to have.
    I was impressed with the lot - except Keean Johnson, and I'm torn between dismissing his acting capacity for the part, or if the part was so incoherently that no one could've pulled it off sensibly - particularly Rosa Salazar. I hadn't seen her before, and holy shit, what an actress she is. As a former theater actor I look a lot at how characters act with their bodies, and her acting in just her movement patterns throughout the movie is some of the best I've seen.
    As for Alita being overpowered... Well, yes, from a physical standpoint, she is probably the single strongest character in the entire movie. But to me that didn't really matter. She's a human superweapon designed by a civilization beyond the understanding of most living people in the setting of the story, of course she's going to be powerful. But she's also a horrible judge of character, has a short fuse, and initially hopelessly lost in the world she's woken up to. She might be strong, but she is far from perfect. Looking at it, at the end of this movie she failed to do what she intended. She failed to save her love interest from death, and she didn't even get to take down the big bad guy as recompense.
    This swiftly turns this movie into an action tragedy, and I'm not going to complain about a big movie daring to do that.

    I actually watched this movie because a sibling of mine had been a fan of the anime/manga and was excited, and so went in with no foreknowledge of anything but that it was based off of something they liked, and i tagged along just because I felt like going out at the time. I left the theater a fan. I felt it was amazing and being a fan of manga and anime of many types myself i thoroughly enjoyed the feel of a cgi anime film rather than the stereotypical drawn animation feel that you typically see. I know that it will take me forever to get into the manga and anime for this belatedly but for now i will start with the novelization of the movie and go from there.

      @@rameshgovalam2071 I understand as an avid bookworm that no media adaptations usually live up to the source material if said source material is well made in and of itself but that does not make it immediate crap, the adaptations can be good even if they are not AS good as the original source. I have seen a lot of adaptations of favored or even amazing works that were disappointing as a fan of the original work most notably Ella Enchanted, Twilight, City of Bones, and The Giver. but there are some that are good ONLY if you aren't comparing it to the original like Eragon, and extremely rarely that are a good tribute to the original like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. Now while I personally have not gotten into any variation of the source of this particular movie I know people who were and I can say it is not an embarrassment to the source like Ella enchanted and Eragon, but I also do not believe it is as bad a disappointment to the MAJORITY of fans like Twilight or City of Bones, or especially The Giver. it definitely made me INTERESTED in the source material when such an undertaking is practically an occupational commitment at this point considering the shear volume of content to go through but considering I would not have given it even a thought of a chance before the movie should make the movie more valuable to fans of the source than trash even to ones such as you who find it disappointing that they had to make necessary cuts and modifications to adapt if to the medium. if you cant accept some differences than why the heck are you even bothering to check out anything but the source material if you cant accept the limitations of screen adaptations. Don't just label things as 'Trash' just because it wasn't the impossible dream you imagined it to be, instead of logically taking a step back and accepting the realities and limitations of the production business and movies in general.

  • @karasutenka
    @karasutenka 5 лет назад +40

    I loved this movie. When I went to see it in theaters, I hadn't read the manga. (Had always wanted to, but never made time for it.) Upon leaving the theater, I went home and spent the next three weeks doing basically nothing but reading the entire run of Gunnm and Gunnm Last Order. And reading the manga all the way through just gave me a greater appreciation for the movie.
    However, there is one point that I just couldn't mesh with. Having read the manga now, and understanding who all the characters are and where their movie counterparts are based from, I hate the fact that the movie uses Nova the way it does. Don't get me wrong, Edward Norton is indeed always a win, and it's always a joy to see him show up to play, but the character of doctor Desty Nova in the manga is so fascinatingly strange and unique, and so vastly different from what he is used for in the movie.
    Spoilers from here on:
    In the movie, Nova is the evil puppeteer controlling the world from behind the scenes from his ivory fortress of Zalem. He is never seen until the final shots of the film and when he interacts with others through his various puppets, he's very cold and calm. As he himself claims at one point, the only form of entertainment he has is watching mortals die.
    In the manga however, Nova is far less restrained. He is the definition of a Mad Scientist, who studies karma as a quantifiable thing. He believes fiercely in freedom, even going so far as to upgrade his nemesis Alita on more than one occasion just to see what she will become and how she will influence the world around her. He is insane, but in a very practical way, he has no compunction about murdering dozens, if not hundreds of people, but he is shown to have the capacity for true, genuine love under different circumstances.

    This movie was a beautiful surprise. I thought it was going to be a typical reboot/reimagining that wouldn't be too outstanding, but boy was I wrong. Alita is adorable once she shows her personality. She feels real and you feel for her. She's a badass and I don't care if she's overpowered because she still has character and even has moments where she's weak and can only try and push through. Not to mention the end song was amazing. The lyrics "what is the point of lips if I don't make noise?" and "staying silent's the same as dying" are a wonderful description of Alita and gets me hyped to see more. When she pointed her sword at Nova, challenging him, I was pumped and ready to see her wreck all of Zalem. If this doesn't get a sequel I'll riot!

    Honestly, I see Alita’s eyes being one, or both, of two things I can very easily reason away.
    1.) It’s clearly James Cameron giving homage to the anime genre that he’s been such a huge fan of for so many years, and evidence to me that he focused on giving as much quality detail to this risky creative choice as he possibly could.
    2.) As soon as I saw the Battle for Luna flashback and the film established that other UMF Berserkers had a similar appearance to Alita, I honestly just came to a presumption that the eyes, much like the design of the entire Berserker body, is simply an aesthetic choice that the UMF adopted for their troops. From what I could tell, UMF tech was established in the movie to be very clearly distinct in both appearance and function from anything else on Earth. The way I see it, it could be the case that when the UMF designed these cybernetic bodies for their troops, they wanted to make themselves as distinct from their enemy as possible. To not just look like a cybernetically augmented human, but to look clearly and distinctly MARTIAN.

    Does this guy realize hes saying positive things about a movie, On the Internet?!?!
    I'm pretty sure that's illegal in 2019. You're only supposed to talk like that to your friends. If its online and the movie is based on an anime or video game you're supposed to be derisive.
    But in all seriousness I liked the movie and i liked this video. I watch anime but i never saw this one, and I dont read manga. Still a very enjoyable movie.

    Alita Battle Angel is one of my favorite movies of all time. I'm a huge huge huge fan of the action and I thought the cgi and acting was flawless. I never saw the anime or read the manga but I saw it in theaters with one of my friends who had. He said it was pretty accurate and he actually liked it a bit better than the anime. But for someone who went and saw this movie blind, I thought everything was fantastic! I loved the world and all the characters. The action scenes are some of my favorite. It's one of those movies I don't get tired of watching. Also I wanted to draw to how absolutly beautiful and cool Zapan's back looked. I also liked his badass asshole charm and him and Alita's interactions in the bar were great. OH and I didn't mind Hugo and Alita's relationship. I thought they were cute together and you could see a build up were in other movies love is unessisary. It wasn't nessisary for Alita to meet Hugo and falk in love. But I think it helped develop her character and help us understand who she is. Some other action movies I feel force romance for audience. But I actually thought they were cute and something I never expected was for her to lose him. I was completly shocked honestly. I mean you don't often see action movies or any movies were they kill of a important secondary character unless its a friend or parent. But Hugo was developed and you were rooting for him in the story and then it's all ripped away. After the movie I was told that was in the anime. I appreicate the fact they kept that scene in because it shows they realized how significant it is. But I thought almost everything about the movie was amazing. Also I find it super dissapointing they might not make a second one... I mean crappy movies like Sharknado get tons... Alita Battle Angel DEFINATLY deserves a second movie!
