Default Dragon Ball The Movie

Lol. Just... just watch those photos.

http://news.mmosite.com/content/2008...333169,3.shtml

Manga - great.
Anime - not so great, but still fun.
Games - meh, played only one on PC and two on GBA... The one on PC was meh, a tekken with DB/DBZ/DBGT characters and moves, first on GBA was pretty good (DB) and the other was mediocre (DBGT).
Movie - WHAT. THE. BLOODY. HELL! That's not Goku. That's not Roshi. That's NOT Chi-Chi. And that's NOT... NOT DRAGON BALL.

This is really not out of place next to some of the mid-budget cheesy Martial Arts crap you see on sci-fi every now and then...

The real question is where the red engine is the main character, AKA Vegeta?

I personally can't stand anime. To me, live action > anime any day of the week. I actually enjoyed Dragonball Z for a while, but then I turned 10. I heard about this movie about 4 or 5 months ago and kind of chuckled. To me, it just seems like Hollywood is running out of licenses. That's why we have an CG Alvin & the Chipmunks movie, and now a Dragonball movie.

Fox is just looking at it like "Hey, we can make 50 million dollars exploiting former fans of the show, no matter how bad we make this movie", and I really can't blame them. If gullible manga fans are gonna line up to pay $10 a ticket, then I say go for it. Exploitation ftw.

Ehh, I don't like the looks of it. But I'll probably still watch it if I get a chance. xD

This movie is going to be worse than Dragonball Online.

And the characters look pretty fking terrible tbh. But as Kanyatta said, if they can make 50 million from dumb fans, let them do it.

oh sweet i can find 3 strikes in this movie within 1 minute of looking at the pics

1. Goku is white
2. Piccolo isn't green
3. It takes place in the present.

The only reason I would go and see this is if they put the "over 9000" scene in.

though I agree about Goku being way skinnier and his hair shorter, I'd still probably watch this (probably alone since no one wants to watch this). I'd have to wait for the official trailer though since there's way too many fan made/fake ones on youtube. (which have been out for months)

They started with Dragonball so if this sells well they will probably make the other ones but imo they should've just done DBZ. I'd be horrified to see who they choose for Vegeta or how they do SSJ. :/

I never watched DB really but I enjoyed Z when I was in high school and still rewatched them sometimes.

Well that seems depressing and all, but what about the rumours of a live-action Akira movie?

Dragonball Movie news is taken less than well over at AppleGeeks.
