Who gives a shit?
If isn't animated it's going to be shit
why not just make it into a cgi movie with a stylized art direction, that way they can keep the eyes and other elements from the comic book
The trailer was terrible, the movie is going to be DOA. They better try to sell it to Netflix.
But then again, this isn't news to anyone: that's what hiring RR gets you.
Same reason why they included life-action Mowgli in the jungle book cgi movie, some folks think a fully animated movie is just for children and wouldn't watch it on principle
In western countries there is a stigma with animated films that aren’t geared towards children
no blood alita = no good alita
Sounds great, I cannot wait. Thanks for sharing!
>> Was delayed because of audiences reaction to eyes
does that mean they're making the eyes more "normal"?
i hope not
I hope they make everyone's eyes freakish
>tfw she's not named Gally
that original fucking american localisation.
The fuck are you talking about homie, these changes are shit.
Do they change the eyes back to normal or just try to improve on what they have?
That stigma exists for a reason. Most animated stuff made for an adult audience is created by and for sexually warped supernerds.
Yeah, I know. It’s just disappointing because there are a few good animated films from France and Japan that weren’t specifically made for neckbeards.
The eyes are a bit smaller than what they were.
>eating brains
I thought everyone was a machine in this story?
everyone knows its going to be shit, yo
they're all cyborgs with human brains unless they're from the hanging city.
>implying
> Was delayed because of audiences reaction to eyes
So they redrew the eyes right
yes, that looks like shit.
They changed her name?
>dude, people seem to like these because they're nothing like american comics
>lets make them as much like american comics as we can in order to sell them!
I think viz can be blamed for popping the anime bubble early with shit localizations.
Good lord they are all terrible changes.
Hugo and figure 4? wtf that makes no sense.
oh so at the end of the day Cameron's a whore who couldn't stand up to focus groups
bump
>make bad decision
>focus groups indicate everyone thinks this is a bad decision
What, should he have gone for it anyway? The big goggley eyes serve no purpose in the live action version. They're just a stylistic choice in the drawn versions, because you can barely draw a photorealsitic person, much less hundreds of thousands of them in a reasonable time frame.
now they're going to look TOO small.
> make them a bit bigger
> no, that's too big
> no, now that's TOO SMALL
James Cameron finally loses his temper and releases the film as an Unreal Engine 4 script. "THERE. THAT SLIDER THERE. YOU can set the size of her fucking eyes. make them as big as dinner plates or small as raisins, i don't give a shit any more."
> dude where's the tit size slider
>> dude where's the tit size slider
>Movies with tit sliders
I THINK YOU HAVE SOMETHING REVOLUTIONARY
Do we get to see Zalem or what?
They changed a bunch of names around for no good reason. The name of the main character should be "Gally", but the dipshits who translated the manga thought this wouldn't be marketable for some reason.
The ivory-tower Elysium cities in the sky and space are named "Jeru" and "Zalem". Guess (((who))) might take offense to that.
Why the fuck does Hollyjew keep trying to fuck with my weebshit. It never goes well and only ends up pissing fans off but they keep trying again and again
I think the only one that was actually decent was Speed Racer, everything else has been nothing but a steaming pile of garbage
I've been waiting for the live action akira adaption for years what's a few more until they actually get it off the ground
I remember knowing of a fully CGI Motorball short but I never saw it.
The uncanny Grand Canyon sized eyes killed any interest I had for this.
I haven't read the new Kodansha translation but apparently they wouldn't realign all the original names back in order. Too entrenched in our culture to market otherwise probably, or they're just lazy cunts.
Alita...
Why not just fucking Gally?
FFS I love cameron but this shit deserves to flop, time for him to eat humble pie.
>>Alita was the name of the daughter which is what Ido names her after.
Most cliche bullshit as fuck, they should have let the cat name thing.
Cameron movies only start with "A" or "T", I don't make the rules
