Super Mario Bros...I always wondered why Luigi didn't have a mustache...I liked that movie,even though their interpretation of goombas and koopas was horrible.
I like these posts,they give me a chance to rant a little about it too.
Its based in the sieres BEFORE DBZ in which goku was younger, dunno if you've ever seen it
In the movie he is fight Evil Demon king Piccillo (aka. Piccillo's father)
however...... thats it
I'm not sayings its gonna be a bad MOVIE (like every is saying) it looks entertaining BUT
its gonna be a horrible DRGONBALL MOVIE
sigh.... =(
And since I'm a huge fan of the dragonball story (from the first series to dragonball gt) I get to pick out everything Fox screwed up in a failed attempt to get the movie to appeal to someone who's never heard of Dragonball or thinks of anime as "That asian cartoon crap"
is it just me or is the first 50sec a bit Lord of the Rings-ish?
and no, using the coen brothers as a standard for movies is not terrible. their movies are freaking awesome and should be the standard for all movies. there arent a lot of movies that are at their quality of filmmaking, least of all this "new" version of dragonball or any movie they are going to make out of anime.
honestly, if they really want to make money off anime and live action movies, just buy the rights to sell it here and do dubs with celebrities just like disney did with miyazaki movies, you let the american people keep their beloved anime, while injecting american stars and making money off it.
*rant finished*
This only gets worse...
I agree, they've named it EVOLUTION to give themselves freedom to create the biggest ____ in the ___ing universe.
If you're going to rip up the entire script and make the whole thing up, just DON'T call it Dragon Ball.
Has anyone asked the Nameks what their opinion is?
Or Porunga? LOL
And, is it just me, or did the line, "We have to find the Dragonballs before the eclipse!" give anyone Avatar: The Last Airbender flashbacks? In that one they have to defeat the Fire Nation before Sozin's comet returns, and there just happens to be a solar eclipse.
Also, thanks for the Mario commercial! That movie made me cringe.
spikey hair? here! get some hair gel, that'll do it!
Green? no way! the fans wont mind king piccillo being white

lol "lean, green, and on the screen"
Second, I was wondering why the trailer made no sense! I thought I was a bit behind on the DBZ knowledge... It has been a good number of years since I last watched it. But... I do not care about it.
I can avoid this movie and not feel bad. It is the Akira remake that is breaking my heart. I haven't heard it has been dropped so i am assuming it is still on. That... will kill my soul.
then you'll relise how much they have actually messed up this movie
dragon ball should be a japanese movie!!...eventhough death note movies sucks
but its still better than this fancy shit.
They should have just let China or Korea make the movie if Japan wasn't willing to do it. I don't understand how Jump Comics would sell Hollywood the rights to make this thing. It's ridiculous! I mean, could you imagine something silly like Keanu Reeves playing a samurai in a Hollywood take on 47 Roni---DAMN IT!
"The daimyo was forced to commit seppuku. Woah."
The whole thing just looked like a B grade movie where the "gaijin" is trying really really hard to get into this kungfu thing......
Cant wait to ridicule my little heart out about it.
RANT ON KOICHI! RANT ON!
You may not have heard of it (although you cant be much of a fan if you havnt) but its the sieres before DBZ
In which oku was a kid and he fought piccillos dad: Demon King Piccillo - in that respect, its true
however
I WANT MY PERVRT ROSHI
why the heck is he all wise???
Yes, Goku fights Demon King Piccolo... that's the ONLY thing they got right in the movie...
The pervert roshi was one of the most fun things on DBZ.
This movie is all more serious than it should be.
It should be more like the anime.
I don't like the way the Kamehameha wave is going to be... it's like fire or something like that. In DBZ the Kamehameha was like a beam of energy or light. It was more real than this one.
Hollywood is running out of decent ideas, so they're abducting the rights to make movies of poor innocent books, animes, comics, ect. and destroying them.
Poor Dragonball...
really what were they thinking? even street fighter looked more "faithful" than this. =_=
Hollywood should just not....touch another popular anime ever again. They can't even remake European movies into decent American adaptations (ask me about Abre Los Ojos sometime), let alone yet Japanese ones. >.>
