Dragon Ball: The Movie

Dragon ball sucks anyway, i don't understand people's obsession with the little kiddies' cartoon.
Live action movie looks worse though.
 
Seriously, did anyone think anything good could come from this?

Really now?

Let's all ignore it and pretend it doesn't exist. If you say it's name out loud it grows in power.

I agree. However, now that it's out, people will still say it.
I suggest a mass banning spree.
Sacrifices must be made for the fate of Earth.
 
Okay I've made a commitment to watch this, AND the new zelda movie, in the same night. looks like I've got to save this weed...

I'm sorry but how exactly do copious amounts of bloody violence and nudity add up to a kiddie's cartoon?

Your kiding right? This, just like the zelda movie, is stupid. A whole part of those shows/games was to be fantasized. When they add real people into the picture it just screws up the whole thing. I want to know who is responsible! They are ruining all of the really good characters! Remember when they tried to do this kind of thing with the mario bros.? Who here remembers THAT?
 
Doesn't mean that there's a chance that it could work. Just because you don't believe it will doesn't mean it applies to every single live translation of an anime. >.>
 
I gave it a chance before. Like I said, the mario bros. thing. It sucked out loud. It was like hitlar in princess peaches dress.
 
In ye ol days... movies based on comics never really did resemble much its inked source.
There is always something lost and something added in the transition from one media to another, it usually takes some time to adjust this so that the people that already know the story dont get disappointed and the rest can understand the story and get attached to the characters

This is even harder to do when the product come from overseas, needing to adjust the story to western audiences, sometimes even having to adjust the targeted audience

Anime and video game movies seem to be still looking for this balance and at this moment, DBZ doesnt look to be one to hit the jackpot

Just give it some time, it usually takes a few movies to hit the nail... and then you got clones of those movies jumping all over the place, breeding with each other and creating clones of them self. Meaning that the experiment got all fucked up and they got to go back to formula
