I am really happy to know that the extension has been postponed. It feels like a friend who has come from afar. At first, she only expected to stay for a few days and then leave, so I want to accompany her every day as long as I have time (so I have Number 18); although I know that she will send postcards and letters after she leaves to keep in touch (such as soundtracks, Blu-rays, peripherals, etc.), I don’t want to lose the chance to get close to her. Now that I know that her return trip has been postponed, I can have more opportunities for more friends to get to know her and understand her. Although we still have to separate after all, it also shortens the time until her return again~
Most of what everyone talks about is the plot, but in fact, in many other places, the producer and director have also shown great sincerity. For example, in clothing design, Alita's clothing color and texture change from light to dark, from soft to firm from beginning to end, and the process of changing from the girl next door to the battle angel, from the simple and carefree to the brave and persevering in the heart is just right; For example, in the dialogue, Hugo said "We can go up for free" when he persuaded Alita to participate in the motor ball game, and Alita said when he persuaded Hugo to go down with her on the transportation pipeline, "We can be free." (free)", the echoes before and after, as well as different situations and meanings, will make the audience feel emotional; another example is the adaptation, the brain left by chiren at the end is a place that has been criticized by the audience who have read the original work. Indeed, this is not the case in the comics, And it is also an important detail that will affect the development of the later plot. But I want to say, isn't this the greatest kindness of this edition to us and to Alita? Because of this, Ido has no reason to erase his memory (at least the reason in the comics no longer exists), and there may be an extra soul on salem who cherishes and protects Alita. Isn't this what we want to see?
It's not just the extension of the screening period, but there are also small details in the film itself that greet the Chinese audience (such as the Chinese characters on many background settings). The role of Alita can be said to be the most unreal and unreal reality in the current film history. Each of us is looking for inner peace like ido (no matter what this peace comes from), and in this early spring of 2019, We can smile and say, "I found you, Alita"
