Re: Dragonball: Evolution, The movie :D

no No NO NO NO!!! WTF

Why must they always adapt shit for the US
Goddamnit Hollywood go make a sequel of some shit and stop F'n with anime >.<


Their major screw up Goku/Bulma/Etc. Were all kids/teenagers in DB
IIRC Bulma never used a gun

Re: Dragonball: Evolution, The movie :D

Hammer Bulma FTW!!!

I'm wondering how many peeps are gonna go see this thinking it is about DBZ instead of DB. Also, how many peeps are gonna go see the movie, never having watched the series but heard of it, and then go watch it and say "WTF This is dumb its not like the movie!" ;_;

Goku was 14 and Bulma was 16...in the movie they're both 16.

And Bulma used guns constantly.

Hmmm. she used guns? I need to go back and rewatch

And I think you get what I'm trying to say though. I'm not expecting them too look exactly like the char. series, but these people just look too old/odd

Re: Dragonball: Evolution, The movie :D

The biggest problem is Goku, who was a midget in the beginning of Dragonball and looked younger then he really is. Bulma looked like a teen, but Goku looked 10 or younger, when he was almost as old as Bulma the whole time.

And yea, she had plenty of fire power. She didn't really use them in fights from what I remember, but she sure did shoot Goku a lot.

Being a geek nowadays has its perks and its downfalls. We see much more catered to our lifestyle (YES FINALLY!) but that also means we see them trying to make a buck off us just for the sake of lining their pockets. This movie embodies that totally, as did Speed Racer. Sometimes you just need to leave stuff alone, so you know that geeks in high places weren't working on this flim.

I didn't think Speed Racer was that bad, even though from what I read they messed alot of it up. However, I don't think Speed Racer was worse than Dragonball will be lmao. I think one of the main problems was, we messed SR up back when it originally came to the US and they did a movie based on the US version of SR which didn't make it better. *Adds Mach GOGOGO! to the list of animes to watch in JP with subtitles*

Re: Dragonball: Evolution, The movie :D

I hope that picture is Goku mid-transformation. And if it's based off Dragonball, flying was REALLY rare there, so no surprise they are using motorcycles. I'm still expecting to be gigantic fail though, Dragonball isn't as popular as it was 8 years ago in America, the only thing reminding people it exists is all the Budokai games they keep putting out. That AND the movie looks like ass.

Re: Dragonball: Evolution, The movie :D

I didn't think Speed Racer was bad either. I can't remember the anime's plot but I remember it was cheesy/campy as hell.

For me it sucked balls. I've been watching Speed Racer since I was a wee one, I think I was 6 or 7. I was totally in love with Speed! LOL Then that craptastic piece of shit movie came out and all I could think of was WHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYY GOD WHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYY!! Some things should be left the way they were meant to be and Speed Racer was never meant to be a live action movie no matter how many craptastic special effects you threw in..................imo of course!

It was the 60's man! What did you expect!? You're mother was probably still in diapers! Wait..............maybe she was in love with Speed too!? OMG.........NOOOOOOOOOOOOO.....tell her she can't have him!! HE'S MINE!! /em gets out her cane of doom and waves it wildly!

Did I miss the little bald friend? Can't remember his name, been too long, but I didn't see anyone matching that description in the trailer.

I don't know about that one, Feba has that look in his eyes....

Krillin and I didn't see him either so far.

Re: Dragonball: Evolution, The movie :D

Friend of mine told me Krillin doesn't exist in the universe of that movie.

Which is totally dumb. Of course, I see no talking animals either. Master Roshi doesn't have a turtle, which I guess is par for the course since he no longer appears to be hermit at all. The only good thing about this movie is a couple of comments at Kotaku.

You know what's going to be the saddest thing to come from this movie?

"Oh sweet! They made a cartoon from that Dragonball film!"

I saw two Americans, a Chinese man, and a Deceptocon in my Dragonball movie and I didn't even see Satan.

It looks like a fucking xmen movie with added kung fu.

For the first time in my life, I'm actually wishing that a film had been made by Uwe Boll instead.

can't wait for the game based off this movie, gonna be even more hilarious =)

Looks like a high budget college film student project.

Let's be honest, Dragon Ball didn't have much depth but it was lighthearted and funny. DBZ sucked but this has nothing to do with it. It's kind of amazing how much they can deviate from the source and still slap the same name on it.
