Eadie, I discovered that your Youtube link was to a different movie, so I fixed it. While doing so I want crazy and added the poster and a free upgrade on the trailer format! Cool

Forgive me, I'm just all jazzed up today about finally having All Sci-Fi located on a new and better web host, and I'm excited about Lolita, Warrior Princesses, or whatever this great lookin' movie is called! Laughing

You're welcome! Very Happy

As you can see, the first trailer is actually for Godzilla, King of the Monsters. I didn't know which trailer from Alita you meant for it to be, so I just put the Godzilla one there until you give me the right link, and then I'll fix it. Cool

Robert Rodriguez Cast A-Lister for Sequel That Might Not Happen The final moments of "Alita: Battle Angel" include an unexpected casting surprise.

https://www.indiewire.com/2019/02/alita-casting-shocker-robert-rodriguez-edward-norton-sequels-1202045545/

Alita: Battle Angel came in ahead of tracking at the box office to deliver a solid $41.7 million over Presidents’ Day Weekend. The opening puts the Robert Rodriguez-directed tentpole on a better course to break even, although it still faces an uphill battle because of its hefty budget of over $170 million. Alita: Battle Angel’s surprise performance means a sequel isn’t entirely out of the question, and Rodriguez has been vocal about making Alita: Battle Angel with hopes for a follow-up movie.

As any moviegoer who has seen Alita: Battle Angel knows, the film ends with a shocking casting reveal: Edward Norton is playing Nova, the villainous scientist in Zalem and the film’s big bad, who is mentioned numerous times but isn’t revealed in person until the final scene. Norton appears for all but ten seconds in Alita: Battle Angel, which is strange for an Oscar-nominated actor of his stature. Norton is not alone, as Michelle Rodriguez and Jai Courtney also appear in small uncredited cameos (Rodriguez is Alita’s mentor Gelda, Courtney is motorball champion Jashugan). Rodriguez says he intentionally lined up the three talents for the sequel, even though a second “Alita” was never guaranteed and remains a question mark.

“There was almost no way to tell this story without including those people,” Rodriguez recently told ComingSoon.net. “You had to get a sense if [Alita: Battle Angel] had been trained before by scenes with the Michelle character, you had to see Gelda at some point. They’re talking about how the game is played, Jashugin is one of the major players. He has a much bigger role later in the books. We didn’t want to just put somebody in. What if there was a sequel? We had to cast three people without really having a part for them to be basing it on to see if they wanted to do it.”

Rodriguez said that because “there was no script for a future one,” the Alita: Battle Angel team decided to go to people who they knew since they had a better chance to land A-listers for cameos if they were already friends with the team. James Cameron is a producer on Alita: Battle Angel and knew Courtney well since the actor appeared in a main role in Terminator Genisys. Rodriguez appeared in Cameron’s Avatar and has worked with Rodriguez multiple times. As for Norton, Rodriguez said he and the Oscar nominee go way back.

“I had known Ed for a long time and Jim knew Ed and had some businesses with him,” Rodriguez said. “He’s really smart like Jim, so we thought, that’s who we need is a mastermind type of guy to play Nova. It’s the promise of a part if there is a sequel, there might not be. If there is a sequel, you don’t want to be roped into something that you’re not going to like, but they knew us enough to trust that we’d make sure it was something cool. That was the challenge of that.”

What I like about movies are good backstories and self-discovery stories. I am less into the special effects and action where are nothing more than the eye candy of the film. What I like about the Blu-Ray version of Alita The Battle Angel is the extras section with the backstory of how Alita came to be originally over 300 years ago. It’s worth seeing.
