Herewith, I also issue a SPOILER ALERT.<\/p>\n<p class=\"hidden animated zoomIn\">I (ir)regularly review movies (that I come across) that feature <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?cat=120\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-slimstat=\"5\">(possibly faked or real) arm amputees<\/a>. Readers of my reviews typically may get this wrong: but I am not reviewing a movie for its overall plausibility, or its overall entertainment aspect, or maybe its overall relation to contemporay culture generally, here. Here, I am specifically asking how the movie relates to the view of arm amputees in society and how it may influence such a view. I ask, what normative angle the film makers take and what normative views they pass on to the viewers. Given that virtually no one nowadays meets an arm amputee in a whole life time, virtually all &#8220;knowledge&#8221; of arm amputees they possibly have is obtained via media, so these film makers exploit great social power.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_82_2 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9815\/#Movie_review\" >Movie review<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-2' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9815\/#Storyline_with_illustrations\" >Storyline with illustrations<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9815\/#Prosthetic_attempts_to_embody_some_of_the_movies_magic\" >Prosthetic attempts to embody some of the movie&#8217;s magic<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-1'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9815\/#Other_reviews\" >Other reviews<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h1><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Movie_review\"><\/span>Movie review<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h1>\n<p>The movie stands out from other movies, where amputees are featured &#8211; particularly recent ones.<\/p>\n<p>The visuals are superb, the technology that is shown is far from being available, it is clearly science fiction. As it is (from Wikipedia): <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Alita:_Battle_Angel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Alita: Battle Angel <\/a>is a 2019 American <a title=\"Cyberpunk\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Cyberpunk\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">cyberpunk<\/a> <a title=\"Science fiction\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Science_fiction\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">science-fiction<\/a> <a title=\"Action film\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Action_film\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">action film<\/a> based on the 1990s Japanese <a title=\"Manga\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Manga\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">manga<\/a> series <i><a title=\"Battle Angel Alita\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Battle_Angel_Alita\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Battle Angel Alita<\/a><\/i> by <a title=\"Yukito Kishiro\" href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Yukito_Kishiro\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Yukito Kishiro<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>And so, we could get Cyborgs as a given here, and so what &#8211; but no: there is a distinction in how prosthetic body parts are a separate, set off, demarcated and specific part of the story line. There, the main human actor played character is Dr. Dyson Ido (Christoph Waltz), who seems to be the main parts provider for many other movie characters, but first and foremost, for Alita. As Alita happens to be inconvenienced first by having lost her own prosthetic body (that is, torso, extremities, and so on), he first puts her into his late daughter&#8217;s cyborg body, and after she wrecks that in a memorable bar fight, he puts her into a cyborg body termed &#8220;Berserker&#8221;. Turns out that she was made to live in Berserker bodies and turns out also that she was the one to find, identify and retrieve that piece, she dragged it all the way to Dr. Ido and ultimately caused the tables to turn so she would end up in one. The movie really tells the story of two people, Alita and Dr. Ido, where Alita, basically, gets things her way: she gets to embody the Berseker body &#8211; which is the best for her anyway &#8211; and the rest of the movie basically is ornament to illustrate the rights and wrongs, the ins and outs and so forth. So really to me this feels far more like a Cyborg science fiction featuring prosthetics and relating to these, than it feels like a good old trash Cyborg war movie where who beats who is the priority. This is actually not so much an action film as a movie about the relation between a prosthetist and a favorite client. And that is truly unusual.<\/p>\n<p>So there are a few interesting and relevant things in this movie, that relate to a normative aspect of this movie plot:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A &#8211; <strong>Amputees can also be good.<\/strong> And it is rare to have fantasy or fairy tale like stories feature amputees in the role of a &#8220;good&#8221; person when mostly, &#8220;good&#8221; are cast against &#8220;bad&#8221; characters. Other fairy tale, dystopian or science fiction like movies with &#8220;good&#8221; amputees are How To Tame Your Dragon, Source Code, Robo Cop, Mad Max Fury Road or The Bad Batch. Many others just feature amputees as villains, confused or troubled characters. And then there are the documentary-type movies where amputation as feature is cast as everyday life type issue, as if it were just a disability.<\/li>\n<li>B &#8211; <strong>If you need a prosthetic, tear it off someone else.<\/strong> This movie itself is one big cruel oily amputation fest. The characters chop or tear each others&#8217; artificial limbs off all the time. That probably has to do with the fact that in that dystopian future painted within the Alita Battle Angel movie, a large amount of people wear prosthetic bodies and limbs, and there is a great deal of violent if not unlawful appropriation going on.<\/li>\n<li>C &#8211; <strong>The movie identifies snug, fast, well integrated prostheses as better than bulky large oversized ones.<\/strong> You <em>could<\/em> interpret this movie as saying that a snug sturdy fast well integrated body-powered arm would be by far preferable to the electric weight clunk damage and control error fest a typical myoelectric arm imposes on you as a user. The story itself also seems to be staged as sone big Cybathlon-like &#8220;Blood Games&#8221; competition [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9594\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>] &#8211; as so much that these people do is not relaxed and certainly not friendly but hostile, aggressive and violent. Wearing today&#8217;s prosthetic arms in, say, a bar fight scene such as in this movie (Alita vs. The Other Head Hunters, see below), a typical modern myoelectric &#8220;bionic&#8221; arm would probably be <em>entirely<\/em> toast at the latest after, say, 10 seconds. Even just putting the clothes and equipment on, as a contestant, for a game such as &#8220;Motor Ball&#8221;, will cause so much sweating that the myoelectric control, far below its normally unacceptable error rates [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9244\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>] will be totally toast <em>way before<\/em> the actual game starts &#8211; Dead In The Tracks so to speak.<\/li>\n<li>D &#8211;<strong> A basic rule in the Alita Battle bubble or world is that the Right Of The Stronger rules.<\/strong> Everyone fights for themselves, one has to be faster, better, stronger, more intelligent, better networked, better everything to get somewhere. That is not new &#8211; current reality has it that if you are an arm amputee and want a truly functional body powered arm that is comfortable, top robust and so on &#8211; you can bet you won&#8217;t &#8220;just get&#8221; that by leaving things to themselves. My path to great parts contained bits and pieces of the Battle Angel movie &#8211; not gory, not violent, but certainly very active. Once I told the long story of how to build a really good body powered prosthetic arm such as mine and just how large companies react to their parts falling apart, the audience of academics was aghast and one guy said that to have &#8220;only the strongest \/ fittest&#8221; get the best setup is against all social support ideas that public insurances would stand for. And, of course he is right. That is why that movie is so great.<\/li>\n<li>E &#8211;<strong> If you do not find \/ have a resourceful and clever mechanic (i.e., prosthetist) and if you cannot finance or bring the relevant parts, you, as a Cyborg, are royally screwed.<\/strong> This is a reality now &#8211; and Otto Bock, Ossur and so on let us feel it. That given the low performance of some &#8220;bionic&#8221; hands are a main reason why that business stalls.<\/li>\n<li>F &#8211;<strong> Split-hooks are bad, cheap and lowly.<\/strong> This movie iterates this stupid and offensive theme as others did [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=3312\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>], and it does so technically elegantly and by implication.<\/li>\n<li>G &#8211; <strong>Mental presence with fast reactions is good &#8211; physical absence is WORLDS better.<\/strong> &#8211; The true hero of this movie are neither Alita nor Dr. Ido &#8211; the true hero is Nova, the mastermind evil guy who is always physically absent but switches himself to &#8220;on&#8221; by brainsurfing a guy named Vector, using his body as a host. That seems to be the ultimate winner in this otherwise inescapable back-and-forth-drama between a severely disabled woman \/ girl (Alita) and her personal prosthetist\u00a0 (Dr. Ido).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>So, overall, we do not learn anything new given today&#8217;s reality. It is a science fiction technology imagination that dates back to the nineties and as we all know, myoelectric technology as introduced by the Russians in the sixties [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=3151\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>]\u00a0 still is what is used for &#8220;bionic&#8221; arms today &#8211; so no wonder we are not a single step further, also seeing as if research never managed to improve myoelectric control error rates in over 40 (fourty, yes) years of research [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9244\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>]. The same transhumanist confusion &#8211; anthropomorphic or better? [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=3398\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>] -, the same 24\/7 prosthetist repair mechanic availability in context of body scheme integration problems [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=8882\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>], the same useless disdain for split hooks that we already have [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=3312\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>] despite these being MORE MODERN than prosthetic hands [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=9423\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>], and the same &#8220;stronger wins&#8221; mentality that we societally suffer from already, are embodied in this movie. Great visuals though. Telling a mediocre if not boring bottom line story with the most glorious animations will certainly lend these attitudes and views more credibility. It won&#8217;t improve prosthetics one bit, even though Open Bionics [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=8726\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>] went at it again (see below), but then, that aspect of real life seems to be far beyond repair anyway [<a href=\"https:\/\/www.swisswuff.ch\/tech\/?p=8066\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">link<\/a>].<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Storyline_with_illustrations\"><\/span>Storyline with illustrations<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>All images Copyright (C) 20th Century Fox<\/p>\n<p>Alitas remains are found by Dr. Ido in a scrapyard while he looks for parts there.

It is funny then just how much of human essence one can ignore if ever the goal was to make this such a film. &#8221; Alita co-producer Jon Landau came out with a novel position when asked about diversity in film. \u201cWe work on stuff creatively,\u201d he says. \u201cWhen you push something to the forefront, I think it has much less of an impact than when you play it in the background.\u201d As such, the prosthetic agenda of Alita: Battle Angel does not come bluntly, but is instead an inbuilt part of the film ( &#8230;) As Landau mentioned, \u201c\u2026at the end, as we talked about, we want to make movies that, that affect people, and have an impact on their lives, and how they see the world, as they move forward.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Another review (see: <a href=\"https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/science\/2019\/02\/welcome-to-the-cyber-world-the-real-world-tech-behind-alita-battle-angel\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">https:\/\/arstechnica.com\/science\/2019\/02\/welcome-to-the-cyber-world-the-real-world-tech-behind-alita-battle-angel\/<\/a>) states the sober fact that &#8220;Alita: Battle Angel is struggling in the domestic box office this weekend for a variety of reasons. That&#8217;s a shame, because in addition to being a genuinely entertaining, action-packed adaptation of the original manga, it offers a reasonable vision of what cyber-technology in the future could look like.&#8221; &#8211; That, in fact, is a rather hard indicator that we may be in fact actually looking more at a disability science fiction movie than a Cyborg warrior movie.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=swisswuff\" class=\"twitter-share-button\" data-size=\"large\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a review of Alita Battle Angel [link] from view of a right below elbow amputee (see title of this blog maybe?).
