The fact that the live action adaptation adapted the anime so well, makes me wonder how good other live action adaptations could've been, if given the right treatment. The only successful anime adaptation. Loved this movie.
the treatment with live action adaption is purely based on whether the people doing it are a fan of the anime/manga, i still get nightmares with how bad dragonball evolution was
@@edgarcia4794One Piece is ok. Not a big fan of some of the casting. Nami is maybe the worst casting of all. She is supposed to he much more of a girly girl, not a husky voiced tomboy. Also they left out certain physical aspects of the characters that are essential, like Usopp's nose and Sanji's curly eyebrows. They don't have to be as exaggerated as in the anime, but they should be there. Also not a big fan of the way the arcs were crammed together (necessary, but has to be done right). There were heartfelt moments in the anime that fell flat for me in the LA, like the scene between Luffy and Nami after Luffy destroys Arlong's place.

This was James Cameron's pet project. He's been sitting on the rights to adapt the manga since the 90s. James Cameron's Dark Angel (2000) starring Jessica Alba and Michael Weatherly was an earlier attempt.
he debated doing this or Avatar first. he decided to do Avatar as a test for the techniques this movie needed but he never got the chance to take it any further. it's only because Robert Rodriguez manage to rewrite the script down to a 2 hour film that Cameron did something he's never done before in his career - gave it to someone else to direct
Loved Dark Angel ❤❤ Still my favorite TV show of all time...still have the season DVDs. Still pissed off that FOX cancelled it after 2 seasons for stupid Firefly....
@@ChrisTheAspergerGuy Underwater was the final movie using the 20th Century Fox logo, but distribute by Disney because they took ownership of Fox months before the movie was released.
@TakakiM-sr1df I think he said it was in the makings last year in an interview while Avater2 was trending. im not sure where but it's just what I heard about🤷♂️
@@oshwaganda Like your idea! Yeah actually, I found that idea in a fanfiction on the internet not too long ago and it had Alita in the MCU and she encountered the Galaxy Guardians and it had the part where she dueled Gamora! It was SUPER sweet to see!! 😃 I tried looking/reading for the part if she got to fight Nebula but unfortunately, it did not have it. ☹ But would it be like for Alita to duel Nebula? Note: There WAS a little detail of when it said, "Nebula stayed out of the way and this mystery girl is MORE formable than her sister, Gamora." But what's your thoughts on it?
I really liked the adaptation. It did it's best to keep it's identity while not trying to be a lifeless clone of the original. I.e. some other remakes this year.
As of last year, Cameron and Rodriguez are both actively working on sequels (two sequels supposedly) and Rosa Salazar (Alita) is also "signed up" for them to return. They are all going to be involved. Now, when we might get those sequels, who knows. The movie's budget was around $200 M and it grossed just about $400 M, so not a flop but it barely broke even, I think. Mr. Waltz also wants to come back as well - but there may be a time jump depending on the story they might want to go with since Rodriguez said they may jump some time ahead. I can't find that interview online anymore, so maybe it was something else he was talking about or I'm mixing it up with something else.
When the assistant said Akita was older than ISO thought, she means Akita was an adult rather than a teenager. This is because her new body configured to look like an adult. As in bigger, you know...
I think it was also for the relationship with the guy. The first body made her look more 16 and the guy was closer to 20+. So, to adapt her body to be more adult so they could have that kiss without her looking like a minor. I myself didn't thinking of that, but I saw a comment from a previous reaction mention that.
Alita was given the dancer/runner (whatever it was) body (that was to be) for Ido's (and Chiren's) dead young (teen or kid) daughter, and Ido, wanting his dead daughter back in Alita, treated her and thought of her as being his young teen/kid daughter, but Alita is no teen, nor kid, but rather a great great great grandmother, lol (well, I mean, in years, as she's 300 years old), Alita is an adult, and so, the Berserker Suit/Body, merely shaped itself into Alita's actual body, the body of an adult woman, hence her slightly larger chest (she's hardly big, lol, probably a 'b' cup, or at most, a 'c' cup, I think), and probably it gave her a slightly wider hips too, and maybe a bit bigger backside too, but I'd have to go back to see/check on her lower body, if it changed at all or not
I love how unhinged Alita is. She can be the sweetest girl but she'll chop off your head if you piss her off. And if she likes you? She'll literally pull out her own heart for you. Very intense for a second date 😂
Jon Landau, the co-producer, was one of the most vocal supporters of the fanbase's campaigns to encourage Disney to greenlight an Alita sequel. Jon recently passed away. We can only hope that we will one day see a sequel, and we will keep Jon in our hearts as we watch.
I want a sequel. Yall are my fave Reject couple. Yall dont ask questions to which you were already given answers to and you retain information. Also the continued battle of Andrew trying to get Roxy to umderstand references is adorkable.
This was another example of why you want people who at least respect, and preferably love, the source material to do the adaptations. This was a real labor of love, you have to watch the making-of features.
@@thelmctodaythelmctoday4037 Alita should fight either the daughters of Thanos: Gamora or Nebula, for in a one-on-one combat battle duel! Who would win that?
@@Elysia63 depends on the time frame. Early story (amnesia) Alita would probably loose since she acts on instinct alone. Alita at the end of this movie would be a though nut to crack for them. And Alita later in the manga would absolutely crush them. Her growth in experience and power scale over the cause of the story is exponential.
@@Elysia63 Well, considering G and N are not opposed to using ranged weapons, i´m inclined to say they have a chance if they get the first strike. In a fair one on one melee i doubt they could beat Alita. Her body is literally a tank.
@@Tyarrk I kinda thought so. I found fanfiction crossover online once showing Alita duel-battled Gamora and she won over her. Plus another one mentioning Nebula but "stayed out of the way" from her because she could see and was surprised to see that she was way MORE formal than her sister
Oh you guys got to check out the prosthetic arms that were made based on the movie and there was this little girl who got brand new arms just like alita's and she got to go to the red carpet and pose with her and everything
Now just imagine if James Cameron had made dragon Ball evolution, avatar the last Airbender and ghost in the Shell, imagine how accurate and successful the live action adaptation world would be.
@@backtoearth1983not sure this is a white knighter sitch. Hes not coming in to defend a random stranger or anything. Sounds like he simply wishes a different filmmaker adapted certain types of films more accurately. Also, you can never trust what writers say about adaptations. They may be speaking honestly, but many are paid to help promote the film and sign NDAs.
GiTS looked amazing, but was a dud storywide. They straight up neutered the Major, removing her callous tactical badassery, in lieu of a more personal story.
I unabashedly love this movie. I have had the poster hanging up in my room for forever. Rosa is Alita to me. Now Hugo is the weak link of the movie and while he's not a bad actor everyone else is blowing him out of the water and you certainly believe Alita's love but Hugo's love or lack there of feels flat.
There absolutely needs to be a sequel based on how it ended. Highly underrated film. Watch Hardcore Henry if you havent seen it. Incredible first person view film.
@@andreabriganti5113 i won´t refute that. Though it can be a detriment, especially for niche products like this where the fan base is relatively small already. I heard several people who didn´t know the source material say how the world building was confusing and the plot felt rushed, and that the movie was entirely carried by the Alita and Ido. So if you on top of that loose old fans due to "bad" adaptation, that´s dangerous.
Rosa Salazar wants to reprise the role, Robert Rodriguez has teased the sequel and James Cameron has stated that he has 2 sequels in development for Alita but with the Avater series they wont release anytime soon. Some rumors say 2026 could be the earliest we see a sequel.
About "Looks like shes a little older than you thought," Ito had fixed up her face with his daughter Alita in mind and used parts of his daughters body. The new body shapes itself automatically based on her image of herself and in her own mind she is a young soldier, not a child.
I'm sure others point it out, but this is based on an Anime OVA (1993) which is based on a Manga (1990-2006) Cameron put aside the Alita sequel to do the Avatar series
The comment I was looking for!!! I read all of the series in the late 90's. I remember waiting for a new volume every two months, all of that or the author to change the end and redo the entire series. It's a great story!!
@@ParisianEbonyI'm gonna be honest. Even if it's rushed I prefer the original ending. The rewritten story is just toooo long and I'm not a fan of Motorball...
People who have not read the manga don't understand how far means "up there" ( beyond zalem, far beyond ! ) and what it cost her to know who she really is.
@@peterlenham3180 it is for the genre. It’s a beautiful homage to the manga and anime. This is hands-down, the greatest anime live action adaptation we’ve ever got.
Roxy and Andrew, a duo more dynamic than Batman and Robin. Alita Battle Angel incredible movie, top notch world building, live action Anime done right.
This movie came out the same time as Captain Marvel and there was so much negative press that the movie didn't get nearly enough people to go see it in the theaters.
So sad it didn’t get recognition in theaters. I saw it opening weekend and it was pretty packed. I went back 18 more times and after the 3rd viewing the theaters were empty.
@@Elysia63 Alita is insanely OP (she was uber nerfed in this movie due to her "amnesia", blocking access to her full panzer kunst capabilities), and while she's near the top in her verse/world, she's still not the top... there's some others that are even more OP than Alita is within their verse/world, but I don't want to spoil anything, so can't say really much more about all of this stuff Alita is manga/anime, Gamora and Nebula are so completely outclassed by Berserker Alita, it wouldn't even be funny, it would be a slaughter, a massacre...
There is the fact that you 2 watch the best movies. It does help considerably. You're on screen banter is also entertaining so that also helps considerably.
I've been entreating everyone I know to watch this movie ever since it came out. Truly a monumental film, heroic, grand, powerful and spectacle! It so freakingly deserves a sequel!
Michelle Rodriguez did Gelda's voice, and yes, Michelle Rodriguez was in some/many of the RE movies, along with being in Avatar (1) too (never saw Avatar 2, so don't know if she's also in that one as well), and gazillions of other movies, she is a really good actress, though she always plays nearly the same type of character/role, a hard'ss s'xy girl, not sure what Michelle is like herself, if she's just being herself when she acts, or if it's just her character type that she acts like
This movie was so good when it came out. Does such a fantastic job of adapting the manga. It was a genuine pleasure to see this in theater in 3D it's so beautiful.
I LOVE this movie! Hugo reminds me a lot of that kid who played Jimmy Olsen in the Lois & Clark tv show in the 90's with Dean Cain. I would LOVE to see a Batman Beyond crossover with this! Ever since that first The Mandalorian episode Rodriguez directed, he has been keep giving all types of hints & feeding our hopes of an Alita sequel. I think around the time when Avatar 2 came out, James Cameron & Rodriguez talked at the premiere about an almost guaranteed sequel to this movie. Not just a sequel, which I would LOVE, but I also want to see a prequel.
I remember the first reaction you both did together and it was kind of awkward since you didn't know each other that well. You guys have come such a long way and feels like you've known each other for years now. You are in fact a great duo.
57:49 MAN, this scene is such a good EPIC FREAKING SCENE!! It’s a story about social hierarchy and the inability to move up in social class. It literally means death…
Another movie on my Underrated Peak Movie list. Bullet Train, Ready Player One, Alita Battle Angel, Age Of Ultron, King Arthur 2018, Doctor Sleep, Ready Or Not, And a few others
Alita: Battle Angel 2 is in the works, as confirmed by producer James Cameron in July 2023. The sequel was originally planned to debut in 2023, but as of July 2024, no release date has been announced.
Here’s a fun fact about this movie Robert Rodriguez makes his own chocolate…. so that scene where she takes a bite of that big bar chocolate was made by him…. you should definitely see an episode of chef where they go to his house and whoever shows up there they make their own meals mostly pizza but it’s pretty awesome
I was so happy with this adaptation i went out and bought the manga right away and it matched up nicely. It did well at the Box Office too so I’m hoping Disney will make another one. Love you guys!
It actually didn’t do well at box office that’s the thing na it barely recovered the total cost (budget and marketing) abd it was reported it may even was a loss not a big one though but still a LOSS
There actually is a sequel in active development, so we will likely get to see more of these characters and this world. Whenever it gets made is anyone's guess, though.
I've been a fan of alita battle angel manga ( gunnm) since 1998, I even become a professional illustrator because of that manga. the joy I had when I watch this on the big screen is so overwhelming. and the manga is still not yet finished until this day. the third ark called "the mars chronicle" is still on going. great manga guys. and I wish they would make a sequel to this movie.
Nice to see your an Alita fan. So am I! 😃 I think she's an AWESOME and OUTSTANDING fighter! 👏👊💢 She and Gamora (or Nebula too) from _Guardians_ should fight for in a one-on-one combat battle! What do you think??
@@Elysia63 thanks,, I think she will be on par with nebula and gamore in fighting capabilities, but if you read the manga's latest chapter, let's just say, spoiler alert, alita has a very strong and enhanced new body, like very enhanced scifi new elements nano tech stuff. so..but gamora and nebula both raised in battle,, still hard to decide who will win..
Oh I know Roxy is gonna love this one. Ive only heard about the manga back when I was younger, and the movie is fun. :) gets a little concoluted but it is still a great time. Im a simple person, I like robots, androids and cyborgs.
I am excited for this reaction, I remember the first time I watched this movie, I doing work experience in England and I went with my dad to the cinemas to see it, I think around that time it had just come out, but that was one of the best experiences I had in a cinema, it is such a good movie, and the cast was great and how it was filmed was so well done.
Yk, with Alita being a great and awesome fighter, I'm wondering 🤔... what if she was in a one-on-one combat battle duel for either: Alita vs. Gamora or Alita vs. Nebula Who would win?

Its good, but it ain't a masterpiece.
@@connorstephens7467 What if Alita fought Gamora (or Nebula) if she were in a one-on-one combat battle duel? 🤔
@@peterlenham3180 it is for the genre. It’s a beautiful homage to the manga and anime. This is hands-down, the greatest anime live action adaptation we’ve ever got.
@@connorstephens7467 How many is there though?
@@peterlenham3180tbh a dozens and hundreds of
Roxy and Andrew, a duo more dynamic than Batman and Robin.
Alita Battle Angel incredible movie, top notch world building, live action Anime done right.
As long as I’m Robin! Answer has the better Batman voice.
Can't believe it's their fifth anniversary and it was released early 2019

36:06 “i will not stand by in the presence of evil”
“Why would she go down there though?” 😂😂😂
This movie came out the same time as Captain Marvel and there was so much negative press that the movie didn't get nearly enough people to go see it in the theaters.
Yea I remember and after that people been saying it’s 10 times better than Captain Marvel 😂
So sad it didn’t get recognition in theaters. I saw it opening weekend and it was pretty packed. I went back 18 more times and after the 3rd viewing the theaters were empty.
Best Anime/Manga filming so far love it so much and Jim C. is working on Part II love you man!
Yk, I was thinking of an interesting idea for Alita 💡:
What if she fought Gamora (or Nebula) for in a one-on-one combat battle duel? Who would win??
@@Elysia63 Not the same universe but alita i think, Gamora isnt strong enough and Nebula maybe but no i think.
@@AndreSchumann-oq7vv Ok
@@Elysia63 Alita is insanely OP (she was uber nerfed in this movie due to her "amnesia", blocking access to her full panzer kunst capabilities), and while she's near the top in her verse/world, she's still not the top... there's some others that are even more OP than Alita is within their verse/world, but I don't want to spoil anything, so can't say really much more about all of this stuff
Alita is manga/anime, Gamora and Nebula are so completely outclassed by Berserker Alita, it wouldn't even be funny, it would be a slaughter, a massacre...
The chocolate bar that Alita eats in the movie was made by Robert Rodriguez, who directed the movie.
There is the fact that you 2 watch the best movies. It does help considerably. You're on screen banter is also entertaining so that also helps considerably.
This was the first movie I went to alone and I did not regret it. I definitely want a sequel!
I've been entreating everyone I know to watch this movie ever since it came out. Truly a monumental film, heroic, grand, powerful and spectacle! It so freakingly deserves a sequel!
"How does it look like that?" She went up a cup size or two when the body realligned with her subconscious image of herself.
I love how Andrew gets to full tears for every movie that is even slightly emotional.
I remember the Anima as a teen in the 80's. I was glad they did a Nice job with this.
There's only ever gonna be one Blade......😂
I imagine Alita's blade clashes with Gamora's blade! 😃😁✊💢
What do you think?
James Cameron should do a sequel to this film because Alita Battle Angel is more fun than Avatar.
I forgot how absurdly stacked the cast of this movie is
The trainer for 99 in past sounded like the main woman from the team in Resident Evil 1
Michelle Rodriguez did Gelda's voice, and yes, Michelle Rodriguez was in some/many of the RE movies, along with being in Avatar (1) too (never saw Avatar 2, so don't know if she's also in that one as well), and gazillions of other movies, she is a really good actress, though she always plays nearly the same type of character/role, a hard'ss s'xy girl, not sure what Michelle is like herself, if she's just being herself when she acts, or if it's just her character type that she acts like
59:49. You shouldn’t underestimate Nova.
I always found her knee jerk response to the giant robot was the throw hands. Really says everything about who she is as a person.
Got to see this in IMAX when it was released. Just such a visual treat with real emotion behind it. A true crime we haven't had a sequel.
This movie was so good when it came out. Does such a fantastic job of adapting the manga. It was a genuine pleasure to see this in theater in 3D it's so beautiful.
Alita and Gamora from _Guardians_ should fight! ✊💢 What do you think??
super underrated movie, been waiting for the sequel for ever
I LOVE this movie! Hugo reminds me a lot of that kid who played Jimmy Olsen in the Lois & Clark tv show in the 90's with Dean Cain. I would LOVE to see a Batman Beyond crossover with this! Ever since that first The Mandalorian episode Rodriguez directed, he has been keep giving all types of hints & feeding our hopes of an Alita sequel. I think around the time when Avatar 2 came out, James Cameron & Rodriguez talked at the premiere about an almost guaranteed sequel to this movie. Not just a sequel, which I would LOVE, but I also want to see a prequel.
Love u guys. Both of u got great chemistry. But I love everyone on the channel.
❤ love this
I remember the first reaction you both did together and it was kind of awkward since you didn't know each other that well. You guys have come such a long way and feels like you've known each other for years now. You are in fact a great duo.
Glad you guys are finally getting along 😂
Michelle Rodriguez is her commander in the flashback
I'm looking for FRANCIS! 🤣
Great reaction guys, love this movie.
Foxy Roxy and the flash back at it! Love this movie, I hope they get a second one
Im happy that they stuck with the anime look for her vs trying to redesign the look.
57:49 MAN, this scene is such a good EPIC FREAKING SCENE!! It’s a story about social hierarchy and the inability to move up in social class. It literally means death…
🕯️JAMES EARL JONES 🕯️ JUST PASSED WAY TODAY... AND WITH ROXY MAKING THAT QUOTE "REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE!!" ALMOST BROUGHT A TEAR 😢
Another movie on my Underrated Peak Movie list. Bullet Train, Ready Player One, Alita Battle Angel, Age Of Ultron, King Arthur 2018, Doctor Sleep, Ready Or Not, And a few others
Alita: Battle Angel 2 is in the works, as confirmed by producer James Cameron in July 2023. The sequel was originally planned to debut in 2023, but as of July 2024, no release date has been announced.
welp. let me prep another box of tissues cause this ones gonna make me cry for the millionth time
Here’s a fun fact about this movie Robert Rodriguez makes his own chocolate…. so that scene where she takes a bite of that big bar chocolate was made by him…. you should definitely see an episode of chef where they go to his house and whoever shows up there they make their own meals mostly pizza but it’s pretty awesome
Netflix “Chef Show” - thoroughly entertaining streaming food feature content
And we fans of this are still waitin on the sequel..
Casper Van Dien is the cyborg that killed Ido’s daughter.
This absolutely one of my favorite movies! I have been hoping they’d make the sequel to it and Rodriguez is still the director.
I’m still hoping for a sequel. This was such a great movie
The cyborg that you kept saying looked familiar was the bad guy in the first Deadpool movie
I was so happy with this adaptation i went out and bought the manga right away and it matched up nicely. It did well at the Box Office too so I’m hoping Disney will make another one. Love you guys!
And if Disney do it, let hope they don't put Disney usual flares to it.
It actually didn’t do well at box office that’s the thing na it barely recovered the total cost (budget and marketing) abd it was reported it may even was a loss not a big one though but still a LOSS
No Kevin had no plans yet for blade as of 2019 until Ali walked in for a meeting saying 1 word. Blade
This movie is so f****** badass it is so underrated... Definitely a movie that turned on many people that didn't think they would be turned on 😅
How can you two not recognise Francis. Wade never forgot his face so how can you? 😂
Favourite Reject Nation COUPLE❤
Hahaha love this
“Is this like a sky-fi show? I love sky-fi” 😂 or whatever Halsey said in sing
16:47 That is Derek Mears. He plays Jason in the 2009 Friday the 13th.
There actually is a sequel in active development, so we will likely get to see more of these characters and this world. Whenever it gets made is anyone's guess, though.
God this movie was incredible I remember seeing it because I had nothing better to do on my day off so I went and saw this and loved it
Great movie! The cool waterfall cave scene was shot in Austin,Tx at Mckinney Falls State Park!
Hunter warrior sounds like Ajax from deadpool
I've been a fan of alita battle angel manga ( gunnm) since 1998, I even become a professional illustrator because of that manga. the joy I had when I watch this on the big screen is so overwhelming. and the manga is still not yet finished until this day. the third ark called "the mars chronicle" is still on going. great manga guys. and I wish they would make a sequel to this movie.
Nice to see your an Alita fan. So am I! 😃 I think she's an AWESOME and OUTSTANDING fighter! 👏👊💢
She and Gamora (or Nebula too) from _Guardians_ should fight for in a one-on-one combat battle!
What do you think??
@@Elysia63 thanks,, I think she will be on par with nebula and gamore in fighting capabilities, but if you read the manga's latest chapter, let's just say, spoiler alert, alita has a very strong and enhanced new body, like very enhanced scifi new elements nano tech stuff. so..but gamora and nebula both raised in battle,, still hard to decide who will win..
It’s a crime that Atila never got a sequel. 🚔👮♂️👮🚨
This was such a good movie that surprises me that never got a sequel. It was genuinely ahead of its time
DUDE NO WAY I WAS WATCHING THE VOD OF UR BDAY STREAM AND LITERALLY THOUGHT TO MYSELF AN ALITA REACTION WOULD BE SO COOL!!!!!!
Love the game of what was called rollerball. Like the retro feel.
Oh I know Roxy is gonna love this one. Ive only heard about the manga back when I was younger, and the movie is fun. :) gets a little concoluted but it is still a great time. Im a simple person, I like robots, androids and cyborgs.
You knew right
This deserves a sequel
Ali really looks like Blade in the thumbnail
I am excited for this reaction, I remember the first time I watched this movie, I doing work experience in England and I went with my dad to the cinemas to see it, I think around that time it had just come out, but that was one of the best experiences I had in a cinema, it is such a good movie, and the cast was great and how it was filmed was so well done.
This movie was great for me watching as a kid. Loved this movie!
Yk, with Alita being a great and awesome fighter, I'm wondering 🤔... what if she was in a one-on-one combat battle duel for either:
Alita vs. Gamora
or
Alita vs. Nebula
Who would win?
