After what seemed like years upon years, that James Cameron Battle Angel Alita movie is finally happening, though he's only producing it with Robert Rodriguez directing. And a trailer just hit.
And yes, those eyes are... questionable. They're obviously doing this to give her kind of an anime look, and to remain close to the original design, but it comes off kind of distracting. For one, she's seemingly the only one in the movie with frog eyes, and secondly, they didn't even do anything stylistically with the eyes other than simply enlarging them.
Other than that it looks pretty neat, and it's amusing to recognize characters and action scenes from a 20 year old OVA, which it looks like they're sticking quite close to. I reckon a lot of people are going to accuse this movie of ripping off Elysium though, dispite the opposite being true.
Anyway, whadda ya'll think?
