This I can certainly agree with. The themes of man vs. machine, and how to
transcend both, are classic, and there's still plenty of bang 'em up cyborg
vs. cyborg action. Definitely worth looking into. Hell, some Mad Scientist
could have set up Tipheres or somethinng like it somewhere remote right before
the Big War... And then had it interruped by the War, leading to a situation
very similar to what's in Alita.
And not to mention: No zombies.
