Alita: Battle Angel is one of those movies that demands to be seen on the big screen. If you happened to miss it in theaters, the next best option is to check it out on home video where you'll get bonus behind-the-scenes looks at the making of Robert Rodriguez's latest flick. And we just so happen to have a clip from one of the Blu-ray's many special features available to check out today!

The clip takes us behind the scenes of the Kansas Bar and the action sequence that takes place there. The featurette reveals that the set was actually built in Rodriguez's Austin studio because a different version of the bar was used in his From Dusk Till Dawn TV series. Rodriguez himself talks about recreating the manga for the bar fight scene with exacting detail. Plus, manga creator Yukito Kishiro reveals how the famous setting got its name!
