Abstract

ABSTRACT:This article examines Robert Rodriguez’s construction of a transborder, hemispheric Américas space sci-fi storyworld in his film Alita: Battle Angel (2019). After considering a tradition of mainstream sci-fi narratives that erase or reconstruct ethnoracial peoples as exotic ornament, the article provides a critical overview of how Latinx sci-fi creators such as Alex Ri-vera, Carla Cavina, and Rodriguez use a “Brown-optic” to strike back at this tradition. It continues with an analysis of Rodriguez’s building of transborder storyworld spaces and Alita’s becoming a cyber-Latina warrior.
推测-真实的种族空间和尼潘特拉战士的形成
摘要:本文探讨罗伯特·罗德里格斯在其电影《阿丽塔:战斗天使》(2019)中构建的跨界、半球的太空科幻故事世界。考虑到主流科幻叙事的传统,抹去或重建民族作为异国情调的装饰,本文提供了一个批判性的概述拉丁裔科幻创作者,如亚历克斯·里维拉,卡拉·卡维娜和罗德里格斯如何使用“布朗光学”来反击这一传统。接着分析了罗德里格斯建立跨界故事世界空间和阿丽塔成为网络拉丁战士的过程。
