Alita: Battle Angel had a hefty price tag, but it ended up performing solidly at the box office, building a legion of fans who want to see that story and that world continued in a sequel. Unfortunately, neither director Robert Rodriguez, James Cameron, nor the studio have said there is a sequel coming, but that isn’t stopping fans from letting the studio know how they feel. The calls for an Alita sequel have been going for a while now, but today the calls for a sequel reached a fever pitch thanks to an organized movement on social media, which called for everyone to tweet about the potential sequel at a certain time, and it seems to have worked.

The #2. reason we need an #AlitaSequel is because we can get dark, contemplative stories like the next arc. If you think Joker had a sad downward spiral, wait until you see this on this heartbreaking story on the big screen. pic.twitter.com/rCpSwXRKWh
