Plot Summary: "Battle Angel" is based on the Japanese Manga series of graphic novels by Yukito Kishiro. The movie combines the first three books, Ido, Alita, and Hugo.

Set in the 26th century, the story takes place 300 years after a societal collapse caused by a major war. But in that society, it's a technological dark age following a pinnacle of achievement far, far beyond where we are right now. It's a post-apocalyptic world from a very high level with cyborg technology as just a way of life. People are augmented a lot as workers and so on, so being a cyborg is not unusual.

The main character is a cyborg. She has an organic human brain, and she looks like she's about fourteen years old. She has a completely artificial body and she's lost her memory - she's found in a wreckage and she's reconstituted by a cyber-surgeon who becomes her surrogate father.

Coming Soon!

I don't care if Cameron butchers this movie. I just want to see it on the big screen! I watched the OVA of BAA when it was released and im still yearning for more.

Hopefully Kishiro will get more recognition overseas and the releases of Last Order will come faster to us!

There's a concept trailer of BAA on Dany Verissimo's myspace page. She was at one point slated to play Alita, don't know if it's still true but I hope it is given District B13!

James Cameron is one of the best writer/directors of our time.I haven't seen a movie he was involved with that was bad.Terminator and don't forget Aliens(that movie should just be called Bad Ass)are a couple of my favorite sci-fi movies.I was on this site about a year ago and it had a 2009 release date now it's TBA so I think he's taking his time with this one wich is a good thing.If you ever seen his documentries you'll know he's a perfectionist.All good things take time!

I hope he does not whitewash it like 21, Akira, Cowboy Bebop, Avatar and Dragonball.
