As The Nerdy Basement says in the tweet below, Robert Rodriguez hopes things will go well with The Book Of Boba Fett because that may increase his leverage when appealing to Disney for an Alita: Battle Angel sequel.

“I’m trying to see what happens with Boba Fett, I think that’s going to knock people’s socks off so when that happens I will go in and say, ok, I’ve been here for a while, let’s figure out how we can do Alita whether it’s for streaming or theatrical…” Rodriguez told The Nerdy Basement.

Weta Digital’s Nick Epstein and Luxion’s Henrik Wann Jensen reveal in a video for Vox what goes into making realistic-looking CGI skin, as opposed to the wax-like CGI skin seen in past films. The video can be seen at the following link:

As some of us have already pointed out on Twitter, BLADE RUNNER: BLACK LOTUS looks extremely derivative of Battle Angel Alita.

It’s good to see that fans of Alita aren’t the only people who have picked up on the similarities between Alita (sometimes called Ali in the live-action film) and Elle.

“It feels more like Battle Angel Alita to me. Even the main character Elle has heavy shades of Alita. It’s hard to tell whether she’s inspired by her, or if she’s a direct clone. I really hope it doesn’t end up being the latter. While I like Battle Angel Alita, I’m not a fan of cloning characters into another series aside from as cameos. It just feels a bit lazy to me.”
