Robert Rodriguez

didn't exist yeah and i was reading it going like this is a great story he's like i don't know how the fuck he's gonna do this it's impossible it's not even he'd just done you know terminator 2 a few years before it's like that was the thing of the art so elita was going to be the movie he did first to prepare for avatar and so he had already done some prep work on it it was based on a manga

But before they did that, they just started doing some tests for Avatar. And then as they got deeper into the test for Avatar to prepare for Alita, they went, I guess we're making Avatar first. So Alita got kind of pushed to the side and they ended up doing it, which ended up becoming such a journey to make that movie, to get the technology, to build it, to make it.

Because I remember visiting him on the set. I mean, I've known him so long, I was on the set of Titanic. That's how long I've been around this guy. I was on the set of Titanic. I was on the set with Sarah Connor and Arnold Schwarzenegger and Eddie Furlong for the 3D ride he made for Universal a few years later. So, I mean, I feel like I've been around him...

a lot of his career, and to be able to visit the set of Avatar and remember him showing me artwork they did, very photorealistic, and he goes, curious to see how photoreal it'll be when we're finally done with this process, because you don't get to see it until it's almost done. And I was like, wow, he's just shooting blind. He's really, talk about me shooting mariachi, not seeing the footage.

He's making this whole movie, not even knowing what the end result's going to look like at all. Because you're not going to know till you get there. And when you get there, if you don't like it, there's not a lot you can do. So I just seen him do that and have that success really made it easier for me to do Alita because then it's like, okay, we don't know. Again, we don't need to know.

We know we'll get there, but we don't know how we're going to do it. We're going to start. And anything that I would come up with on this movie, And his team, because he had all his Weta people working on it, he had them all working on it too. I do a fast version of his process because it's a lot of live action. Avatar's mostly CG. I have live action sets.
