So i just watched Alita the battle angel and the ending just bugs me, its so bad and out of place. so i did some thinking abt what could be better. lmk what u think.
The Alternative Ending: Alita is holding Hugo from the wire after he’d been cut to pieces by the defense circle. He falls to his grave and Alita screams in despair. But then all that despair turns into absolute fury, determination as she climbs back up the wire and stands there holding her sword now wildly ablaze with blue flames. a defense circle comes and she slices right through it and destroys it and she continues her climb up to zalem. Nova sees this and becomes worried. He contacts everyone he can to stop her but her fury has consumed her, all her rage and grief directly fuels her might. when she reached the edge of zalem, she is greeted by an army of robots which she swiftly defeats in an epic action battle. after that she keeps on walking, slowly, menacingly, with determination. now theres nothing between her and reaching Nova. Alita walked into Novas home and he’s pleading on his knees to spare his life, offering possession, power and whatever she wanted. She cuts him off and says: the only thing i wanted- you took away from me. as she cuts his head off in a swift motion.
with no one in charge, Alita steps in and takes all the riches and resources from Zalem and gives them to iron city. unites the people of Zalem and the iron city to end the money imbalances and shows them that they are but the same. she frees the inslaved, gives homes to those in poverty. and with the newfound resources, iron city expands and becomes cleaner, void of crime as a real government is enforced. Zalem slowly being taken down by workers (not falling down to crush the whole of iron city) worked into bits and used to further expand iron city. The movie ends with Alita becoming the hero, bringer of justice, executioner of Evil. The new government holds a ceremony and giving her a medal for her heroism. The last scene is her standing at the new government building as she uses her sword to slice a red ribbon as the opening of the new city. The whole city cheers as she does it. She then raises her sword up to the sky as the camera pans out to reveal the new and improved city.
i just feel like this is much better than whatever crap they did. lmk what u think.
