CBR is acting like Alita 2 has been greenlit. All Landau has confirmed to ScreenRant that they're working on getting it greenlit, not that it has definitely been greenlit. Internal development work inside Lightstorm, if that is going on, doesn't mean that it's definitely happening either. They were doing that for many years before the first movie came out. Alita 2: Battle Angel Will Work if It Fixes the First Movie's Biggest Issue quote:Alita: Battle Angel is finally getting a sequel, but the follow-up needs to fix a major mistake of the first movie that involves its runtime.

Yup, can't trust CBR or ScreenRant for scoops. Gotta wait for Deadline or Variety for confirmation. But still, we manifesting this sequel into existence

As awesome as a 3 hour Alita film would've been (soooooo awesome, whole lotta stuff they could've done with backstories for everyone) I think they made the right call for it to be just 2 hours. Maybe if it was Cameron directing, I think it would've been well-received, but I remember the whole YEAR before it got released, and most of the reactions I saw and read were "ugh, some sappy YA love story in a post-apocalyptic setting, next please" and the reason for our thread title "why are her eyes so big? They're creepy"

The last act could stand to be 15 minutes longer or something. It does feel very tightly paced.

I think someone described the budget of Alita as riding a knife edge, like every extra minute over 2 hours in theater time cost them such and such contractually and also every 5 seconds that Rosa was on screen was pretty expensive. I can't really articulate it, but RR seemed to understand very clearly how much was going against the film both regarding questionable traction with audiences due to being an unfamiliar property and also how the Disney-Fox deal might be swaying things (competition from other releases). That is to say, the script is not only a shrewd compromise, but hitting that 2 hour mark on budget is probably a big deal not just symbolically.

I wonder if budgets would be, not smaller, but more efficient going forward, given all of the recent developments and refinements through Alita and Way of Water. Asset development is a pretty big bottleneck, and since a lot of Iron City POI were already made, and for the Motorball arc, Alita doesn't have many big physical changes. Then again, Cameron doesn't compromise when it comes to visuals, or he won't let the execs do what's happened in a lot of the flagship Disney films of late

Rodriguez made a name for himself being pretty shrewd in regards to working within a budget (thanks to his initial indie film background), so I'm not surprised he was able to get things done in a timely m(and efficient) manner.

Rodriguez confirms that they're talking about it, to the magazine Total Film in the UK. He also makes clear that it's not green-lit yet. https://twitter.com/totalfilm/status/1655943256314875909 quote:"Yeah, we have been talking about it, so we would love to make one," Rodriguez tells us, though he adds that nothing is confirmed at the moment. "We haven't set it for sure yet, but we're definitely hoping to and talking about it a lot. They're slammed with all the Avatar stuff, but they've definitely been engaging in it."

To respect a lower budget, Rosa Salazar has to wear Jackie O sunglasses in every scene.

I'm still laughing at that "gently caress the haters" article about how they made the eyes bigger.

I have to admit that the eyes put me off at first as well, but the original version. The first trailer I think my thoughts were "are they just trying to do the anime thing?" But I also hadn't read BAA yet, I think I had heard of it and seen pages posted over the years but no one I knew, or circles I hung out in had heard of it or read it. I decided to at least read the first volume to see what this movie was purportedly to be about. I ended up blowing through all of BAA over a couple weeks and suddenly cared A LOT about this upcoming movie. When the final trailer came out, I remembered thinking "I don't know what they did to her eyes, but they don't weird me out anymore. This movie is going to be fine for visuals!" Maybe they made them bigger and maybe that was the right decision, weird how this also happened with Sonic, they made his eyes too loving small and it was unsettling to look at

You know, they really will be able to economize during the Tuned stuff. Salazar can play the hero AND the villain!

One of those ultra low budget sequels where it's just a different cheaper actor playing Ido watching a tv screen showing footage from the first movie while just talking about all the crazy cool stuff that's happening in the story now.

Ooh yeah, its anime so they can save money by just making the second act a clip show of the first movie+the first act.

Alita combos https://i.imgur.com/pQcJp1u.mp4 I need to practice Cammy's moveset more so I can level up her style. I only know how to play Chun right now in SF6, hah. I'll lab Cammy eventually; Alita's gonna look so cool using Cammy's level 3 super/critical art [edit] Also gotta level up Chun style a bit more so I can get her level 3 super with the wing chun chain punches. Perfect for Alita. teagone fucked around with this message at 02:52 on Jun 8, 2023 |

Yesterday, Alita fans had a banner flyby over disney HQ. Also a cosplayer requesting a sequel, while writers are on strike. https://twitter.com/11serb16/status/1669095399611846656 https://twitter.com/AlitaArmy/status/1669103777918459904 Now that the release of the Avatar movies have been delayed by Disney, maybe Lightstorm has some extra time to work on an Alita sequel? When the first Alita movie was made, some of the crew from Avatar did become available to work on Alita.
