Noru Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) Dragonball and Dragonball Z was something I watched when I was younger, Yes I was a fan of that show. Anyways Fox has decided to create a Live Action Movie named Dragonball: Evolution. When I first heard about this I thought it would end up being total crap, now they have released a trailer for the movie, I'm still not sure if they will be able to pull this off. Anyways here's the trailer. Do you guys think they may be able to pull this off or will it end up failing?

Artur Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Holy shit... that looks nothing like Dragonball at all. I heard about this a long time ago too and at first they were gonna make a DBZ movie but then that got cancelled. I was sort of interested in this but after seeing this trailer, none of the characters looks or resemble anything of the originals, the special effects look good but everything is just missing. I'm pretty sure Krillin is not going to be in this and that just defeats the purpose of making a Dragonball movie because he was Goku's best friend during the whole series and was like a main character. This is going to be an epic fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charger Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 I saw the trailer, weeks ago. Disappointing, even before it was release, I had my doubts. I'll be skipping this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earthbound Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 (edited) Mega bummed about this. I'm a bit of a closet fan of DBZ since I was about 13 lol. Somehow I've never grown out of it. I found this movie on YouTube though. It says almost exactly what I was thinking (then it sort of trails into it's own weird spiral of strangeness, but it's still awesome) Edited December 18, 2008 by Earthbound Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hansui Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 my brother is so depressed about this, but i think it would definitely give me a good laugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is going to be an epic fail. I completly agree with you, the intention is good but the execution looks awful. Still gonna watch it, just for curiousity. Dragon Ball (Z) should stay the way it is, a succesful anime/manga, but of course Holliwood wants to thrash it by making a stupid movie about it and of course they are in it for the money.

EvoLuTioN Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Much better? Dragon Ball (Z) should stay the way it is, a succesful anime/manga, but of course Holliwood wants to thrash it by making a stupid movie about it and of course they are in it for the money.x2I have watched only the first season of DBZ, Till the Freeza part and this trailer doesn't look anything like its anime version. The only character which resembles their anime counterpart is Bulma I guess, Goku has short hair? Long hair would have been win, with it blowing up while charging his lezars with those spirt charge things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noru Posted December 18, 2008 Author Share Posted December 18, 2008 In my opinion, they should of never even bothered making a live action movie, In the end, its going to fail. I'll still see just for the curiosity but will probably wait till it comes out on DVD or TV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitsune Inferno Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 This movie is going to blow ass. I was a Dragonball fan up until the Majin Buu arc. That is not Dragonball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artur Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 Haha I actually liked the Majin Buu saga but didn't really watch GT. I watched Dragonball a little bit but DBZ was always the coolest IMO. But yeah making this movie was a huge mistake, I would have been happier with an animated movie or something with like a new style of animation but this just looks like shit.

WRX22B1998 Posted December 21, 2008 Share Posted December 21, 2008 lol this movie looks average at best will be a good movie to watch while drunk or something hahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neogogeta Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 That's so embarrasing. They should cancel it right now and at least remake this with hand-drawn or 3D anime/manga characters and don't reinvent ,what's already awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherman Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 Wow, that movie looks horrible. Don't think I'll even waste my time on it, and I watched the orignal anime stuff, kind of skipped around but. I was always more into Zoids, anyway.

Mike356 Posted December 22, 2008 Share Posted December 22, 2008 This is gonna be worse then meet the spartans who ever decided on this should be hit with so damn hard by the fail that this is gonna make Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
@SupremeD; Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 WTF kind of shit is this there's so many things wrong with this trailer. First of all goku supposed to be a kid, 2nd bulmas hair is blue, 3rd where's the pervy old master roshi we all know and love, 4th what the hell is up with piccolo?! Dragon ball [and z] used to be my all time favorite show when i was a kid. In my opinion they should of never of thought of making a live action movie. When I goto see this movie in the theatres on opening day, I am going to bring my video camera in with me and film people crying in the audience while watching it because of how HORRIBLE it is! I will then edit it, post it on youtube and let the director know how miserable he made us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huckleberry Pie Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I'll give it over 9000 points of fail... I haven't watched it yet, but based on the fact that the live-action Mario and Street Fighter movies flopped at the box office, then it needs not much explanation.
