A patroa me infernizou para ver esse filme ontem e cedi, assumo que estava com expectativas baixas quanto ao filme e ate teci alguns comentários negativos sobre o filme para ela, porém, que delicia de linguá queimada q eu tive! Gostei muito do filme, as cenas de lutas e coreografia foram muito boas, de verdade, não conhecia o manga nem nada e tive uma grata surpresa, teve la seus defeitos, mas pífios perto da gratificação que tive com as qualidades que vi, espero que tenha uma continuação com a mesma qualidade e esmero que esse teve, merece sucesso!
Ainda bem que você superou as baixas expectativas e foi conferir o filme, man. Gostaria que mais pessoas tivessem feito como você, pois o filme realmente merecia ser melhor sucedido... Espero que a bilheteria seja suficiente para convencer o estúdio a investir na franquia, porque também estou na torcida por uma eventual continuação.
Aproveitando o ensejo, deixo mais uma atualização a respeito da bilheteria mundial de Alita.
Alita: Battle Angel Just Passed A Box Office Milestone
While all the talk and focus is on
Captain Marvel this coming weekend, Carol Danvers is not the only cinematic heroine that can be seen in theaters. The Battle Angel herself, Alita, has been quietly entertaining audiences for a few weeks now. The Robert Rodriguez-directed, James Cameron-written and produced manga adaptation
Alita: Battle Angel has now passed a significant milestone at the box office.
Alita: Battle Angel has topped $350 million worldwide, according to
Box Office Mojo. A total of $350.5 million and counting is a nice chunk of change that puts
Alita: Battle Angel comfortably in the #3 spot at the worldwide box office in 2019, trailing only
How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World at $378.6 million and the Chinese juggernaut
The Wandering Earth, which has made $676.7 million in the Middle Kingdom alone.
Alita: Battle Angel was predicted to be DOA domestically, but wound up performing
better than expected in its opening weekend. It earned $33.5 million over the long President’s Day weekend and it has been plugging away ever since. In its
third weekend,
Alita came in third at the box office, adding another $7.2 million to bring its domestic total to $72.4 million.
While that domestic haul is nothing to write home about, this special effects driven film was always a play at the international box office, and that’s what has
really pushed it over the $350 million mark.
Alita: Battle Angel has performed far better in foreign markets, with $278 million of its $350 million coming overseas. A large chunk of that has come from the ever-important China, where
Alita has made $113.2 million.
Although every box office milestone achieved is a step in the right direction, $350 million is not enough to call
Alita a success or guarantee a sequel, at least not yet.
Alita: Battle Angel’s reported budget is $170 million, and when you factor in the marketing costs, it has been suggested that the film would need to hit
$500 million to be profitable.
The Battle Angel is more than halfway there, but it will really have to leg it out for that last $150 million to get into that $450-$500 million mark where it can minimize financial losses. That may not be especially realistic given its weekend-to-weekend drops, but the film definitely could have bombed harder. While it obviously won’t be considered a true hit given its budget,
Alita may wind up in a murky territory where the losses aren’t as bad as they could have been ,but there isn’t a clear financial mandate for the franchise to continue.
Alita: Battle Angel may find new life and eventually break even down the line on home video, but if it fails to spawn
a sequel, the blame will fall primarily on the domestic market as it has done relatively well everywhere else.
That’s a bummer because although the film has been heavily mixed in terms of
critical response, the audiences that have taken a chance on the largely unfamiliar property have really liked it.
Alita has an “A-“ CinemaScore and positive ratings and audience scores on IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes, for what they’re worth.
Alita: Battle Angel is still playing. You should check it out and then check out our
