    Oh, that’s interesting. I had thought the OOP (N.B., that’s short for “original OP” and is a fair bit shorter & clearer than “the OP of the OP”) was criticising the movie for doing a poor job of paying off its plot. But actually perhaps it was more of a genuine wish than I thought?

      Imagine if the original Star Wars movie ends right before they send out the X-Wings to attack the Death Star. That’s sort of how Alita felt. It’s been a while and I only saw it once, but basically she is trying to get to this “upper city” area to compete in some sort of battle race thing. It ends as soon as she gets up there basically.
