Dragonball

[froggy the hobo]

It's not even out yet, but it is coming here anyway sooner or later

People set their expectations too high.

The source material was always a goofy, absurd, damn-near-moronic amalgam of shounen cliches. The movie version likewise looks goofy, absurd, and damn-near-moronic. Seems like a success to me.

I personally liked the dragonball series. I was never a crazy fan, I never bought any toys or clothing with dragonball on it, but i liked watching it. I've checked out what the new one looks like, and it looks ridiculous.
However, some reviewers are saying that it may actually be better than what we all may think, I'm still not convinced, but you have to think, unless someone was going to do at least decently, they wouldn't try to make people look like the characters in dragonballz do.

So maybe it will actually be a good movie since it takes some major cajones to attempt making it, either way:ridiculous/stupid or not, I'm going to see it razz

Not looking forward to this one.

the movie doesn't look goofy or absurd
it looks like a regular old crappy action movie from the 90's or 80's
only much worse because it's operating under the name of a beloved (you cannot argue against that, look at what japan was like during year of the monkey) series
giving it a bad name to those who aren't familiar with it
while angering those who were fans by removing vital characters
(no krillin=no super saiyan)
completely changing the story
(goku in high school??)
and adding original, crappy characters when toriyama has already created an army of characters for the series

"i'm gonna remake the shining! but this time it's gonna be about ice hockey and lets get rid of that dorky little kid with all the fingers"

Piccolo will be made green by cgi. Still Dragon Ball will be s**t. Anime fans will rage bad with this one.

Anime fans will rage bad with this one.

Which is pretty ******** sad considering how awful the source material is.

I'm not saying DB was the greatest anime, I'm not a DB fan myself but............. come on, this is gonna be a new level of fail.
Even japanese live action movies based on anime suck really bad.  

[KiwiDaling]

I was so disappointed with that movie. I grew up watching DB it was like a nightly ritual, then this crap was made. Tho I have a few questions where was Krillin? Or that pig?  

[Black-Ninja01]

This movie was a big disappointment. I use to love DBZ but after watching that it made me have second thoughts about the hold series. The movie was so hyped I went to see it on opening night. I came out of the theater disappointed.  

[Speedira]

I refuse to acknowledge it as DB stare  

[Manpug]

This was not Dragonball buy way they made the personalitys seem so off from the TV show and comic. The only good that came from it was the actress that played CheChe, she was hot.  

[hfzl1234]

I didn't even watched that piece of junk.
The old Dragonball live action is the best!  

[iChihuahua]

OMG. really. i watched a bootleg online.
sooo happy i didn't waste my time going to the premier at the local theater

i would have lost valuable time studying for a calc test and a history quiz.

WTF.
where did they pull that plot...
not even near. DB

what irritated me even more was that the guy that did the manga helped... make the movie...
><  

[L wants a cookie]

How can you expect the live-action version of an animated series of DBZ caliber to be good? There's way to much stuff going down in there for them to even make the movie look even half good.
