Finding out there's going to be a movie makes me both incredibly happy and sad. I wish my grandma was still alive. She would have loved to see something we bonded over go to film.
This is probably the wrong meme.

My lil bro got me a "dragon book" when I was 16, he was 6. Turned out to be the first book in ASoIaF series.

powerhouse production staff and promising / proven actors, I can't wait. Plus I love me some Christopher Waltz, who doesn't?
rabiesraeven
I think it'll be rad, as long as Rodriguez doesn't fuck up again.

Battle angel Alita?
CheckOutMyFavoritesPart2
Read this as “Atilla” on the thumbnail, would have also been cool. Battle Angel is awesome though
Curadh
The first Battle Angel/Gunnm series is a masterpiece.
TheDragonsHoard
I have concerns based on the trailer, but. I just want to hope it is good. Please, let it be good.
weedsaveslife
My G ma got me Mrs Doubtfire for Xmas once. Now I dress up as grandma and stalk my ex wife and family. Also I throw fruit at her new man.
TheShadowsLengthen
Alita ? Time for me to google I guess...
lokishadowgirl
the second series: Last Order has a hot, transgender android
Jonsse
Just heard of Alita today when I saw the trailer, looks interesting. With a proper cast and director.
TheMightyElk
Wife just showed me the trailer. I had been waiting for years since I heard of it! I'm excited!
Bizsnatch
Right on grandma!
GoochoLibre
I saw the animated show on the Action Channel as a kid and fell in love with it. I'm stoked to see it.
HALOHeinz
This year I read the first 3 books in The Expanse series then I found out there is a show.

My grandma took me to Walmart and let me pick between Pokemon red and blue. There are few decisions in my life that have molded me more.
linustheman
It's been made. Shot in Austin Texas. Had a lot of friends work on it.
LordChungus
I'm just hoping that it makes so much money that they adapt Last Order. That was the best manga/Tournament Arc I have ever read.
Ginjin
I named my daughter Alita because l loved the Manga. Series. I am looking forward to going to see the movie with her.
NKato
Here's the problem, @OP. The eyes. That was such a huge mistake.
Galloglaigh366
My grandma used to pay cab fare for my mum so i could watch dbz. (My step dad at the time wouldnt let me watch tv etc at his house.)
TALiOS
Are we talking Battle Angel Alita? Because my friend will be super thrilled.
NERDRAGEohacat
You... you might want to check out the trailer before breaking the news to your friend.
xane
Why are the eyes so big...
NERDRAGEohacat
To better see our souls break.
TALiOS
I did. I take back my comment and very carefully mention it instead.
DamnTman
Feel the same. Read about all of the series and super stoked when i saw the preview
kirmokum
the trailer looks fucking atrocious.
Mimsey
I'm not a fan of the series but I thought the trailer looked fantastically promising for an anime adaptation.
kirmokum
there's no reason for her to be full CG or those stupid eyes or for cameron or rodriguez to be involved.
celebratorygunfire
Did you know about this?: https://youtu.be/kyjpT2d4Uy8
ReverseTrapTsukasa
I prefer subs but it's hard to find them for Gunnm.
Medionsinger
Personally, I will stick with this over what I saw in the trailer.
LiRivera
I do now.
NoInspirationInThisCoffeeCup
My grandmother bought me the hunger games book when it first came out. Now i have a unhealthy sexual attraction to Jennifer Lawrence
MountainYankee
Just don't go shooting a public official to impress her.
Greymalum
I don't think the book cast her.
humblegrumblebee
I think they are saying they became huge, obsessive fans of the series.
Greymalum
I know, I made a joke.
humblegrumblebee
Hey guys, i think this guy made a joke.
Denamic
Have you learned nothing? Live action adaptations of mangas are the devil. Think Dragonball. Think Death Note. Don't be happy. Be afraid.
LiRivera
I didn't like Death Note or Dragonball. So, I never watched the live actions.
javer80
I haven't seen the adaptation of 20th Century Boys yet, but I bet it's great. Getting on it this weekend.
Woppledorf
Ridiculously poor use of meme. I don’t care, so upvote for you!
jawsnnn
Literally no one uses the meme correctly anyway so it doesn't matter. It used to be socially awkward/awesome penguin.
crazyandfuctioning
None of us care. It’s good shit post though.
rusrsdude
This really confuses me as to what this terminology truly stands for.
crazyandfuctioning
A post that is so bad it’s good.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
Let me correct that for you (considering what Hollywood does to their live action adaptations of anime...)
madcore
I have confidence with this adaptation. James Cameron likes the original a lot, he spend 20 years trying to get the greenlight to make it
Buckbeak1486
I have faith that James Cameron will treat it right.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
But none in the studios.
tzxAzrael
maybe. I'd color the bottom a hopeful-but-nervous purple. also top bar should definitely be a red.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
The situation described by OP was more of a "she didn't care and I felt mildly hurt" sol I kept with blue as OP used.
tzxAzrael
yea, i meant for OP too. g'ma doesn't know what's good, but she tried.. and she ended up succeeding quite well, too. sounds like a win to me
tzxAzrael
i mean, just my 2c, there's so much confusion about this meme format, OP might not even know red/red is ok.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
1/ That's why there is red in the middle. It started off awkward got better, then I'm blaming Hollywood for choosing to do live action. So
Shoutrr
THE EYES ! OH WHY WHY ?

Different manufacturers might have different sculpts or aesthetic ideals in mind when producing different cyborg bodies.
Mimsey
I've heard some fans of the series claim that she's got bigger eyes than everyone else in the manga as well. She's supposed to be doll-like.
Solrokr
She does, and she's got odd lips. It's fine in manga, but abhorrent in film.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
and her clothes look like they were pulled of the shelf in a WalMart
Jonsse
I think it's an interesting idea. CGI human characters always look weird no matter what. There's no reason why she CAN'T look like that.
pres2pond
Except it looks horrifying and she looked like a normal person in the manga. Next you'll defend Shaymalan's Avatar.
Mimsey
I've heard people say she's supposed to look creepy. That in the story she was made to look doll-like on purpose. Can't confirm, though.
Jonsse
Ad Hominem, shame on you.
pres2pond
Listen, there comes a point when a comment is so bad, the best course of action is to hit the person over the head and hope that fixes them.
Jonsse
All you're doing is stating an opinion worth nothing, I'm not the useless one here.
ChickenROAR
An interesting idea doesn't make it a good idea. Can't does not mean shouldn't. I think it's jarring and its omission would save time & $.
ChickenROAR
And our eyes.
Jonsse
She looks weird sure, but I'm still not entirely convinced that's a bad thing. In manga the main protagonist is often overexaggerated /
Jonsse
and we ignore that because that's how manga and anime often are. But then in cinema that's somehow not acceptable.
ReverseTrapTsukasa
There's more cyborgs & humans in that world. If you use an element in your world, use it consistently.
