Despite the mixed reviews so far, I'm still going to check it out.

In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Rodriguez said that the film is a self-contained story but "it tunes up a world and a character that could go on and on." Cameron originally planned for a film trilogy.
Yeah that's not going to happen.

To be honest I think Alita is niche even in anime community at least in west. Alita can be treat in some sense as original work. Well I won't be suprised if we get more anime adaptation regardless Alita success or failure.

Judging by the preliminary box office figures, Cameron's trilogy is already two films too long...

You must not be if you're on places like ANN which has been reporting on the movie for months.

Would have been a great opportunity to re-release the OVA since it’s been OOP for so long now. Maybe even Remaster it. Though there’s likely enough material to make a full Anime if this does well.

The Battle Angel Alita DVD is still available from Section23 Films but it would be nice to have a BD upgrade of it.
