Now THIS looks horrible. It's not anything like DBZ! Thoughts?

[Gravemaker]

I don't think it looks THAT bad, just pretty different from the original material.

Pretty different is an understatement...

Thank you for your honesty.

It looks that way because it's not Dragonball Z! It's just Dragon Ball. You guys have never seen the first one? That's why you don't know it, therefore it doesn't look right. It doesn't look awful, it may actually be pretty decent. But geez, stop flaming it before it's out.

[Rarehunter813]

this may be, THE most un drogonballz like movie ever made.... and why was goku's hair short???

Goku is a kid in the first one.

From the preview it seems okay. But you know what? It looks lke one of those movies where it was aimed to people 11-18 yearsa of age but would be one of those movies that you see a bunch of little 8, 9, and 10 year olds wanting to see just for the fighting and doesn't care for a story. Thats the typical boy now a days anyway. Know what I mean?

Goku is a kid in the first one.

Hence a certain problem with in film adaptions, also there's no Krillin.

[Onizero]

The storyline looks okay. But the Goku actor already looks like shit. He shows no emotion. Like when he said cool the Goku I know would scream in enthusiasm.

Krillin sucks anyway, especially after he gets married to 18.

That's funny; I expected a Rickroll.
Yes, it was very different from the series. But it's most likely produced in Japan, since it is a Japanese comic to begin with. I mean, how can you duplicate the original thing anyways? People with huge, golden hair? Bullshit.

Just get some yellow hair dye and animate a gold aura around them and voila, Super Saiyan.

I'm starting to think that this film is actually trying to be funny.

"With this Dragonball, I wreck my vengeance...on the earth..."

lolwut?

as many people have said, not only is the character for...well, everybody completely mis-casted, but the script doesn't make any sense either. The sad thing is, they could actually make this a MUCH better movie if they replaced the title "Dragonball: Evolution", with "The Masters of Time and Space and Disco", replaced the names of Goku, Roshi, Bulma, and Piccolo to Tyler, Pete, Gladus, and Sherlock, and if they replaced the word "Dragonball" whenever it is said to "Carrot Sword"

"With this Carrot Sword, I wreck my vengeance...on the earth..."

...yeah, that sounds a bit better.

It'll fail harder than anything in recent memory. The people will respond with a resounding facepalm, and the resulting sound of palm to face will break numerous world records and cause untold amounts of damage and casualties.

[animehater]

"Seven mystics"? Where the fuck is Kami!? And I swear if Roshi isn't a horny piece of shit in this movie I'm going to literally learn Kung Fu, dress up as Pikkon, go to the offices of the studio who made this movie and beat the living shit out of everybody there.

Sometimes I wish people would stop paying attention to this, because then it would fail nice and quietly instead of being a huge mess.

Yeah, don't you wish? But once it comes out, you will see massive amounts of threads concerning how amazingly bad the film is.

I will make a point of committing suicide long before then.

Damn kids love to beat dead horses till they're atoms, don't they?

Cool time machine there, bro.

It's like we're really back in 2006.

[xstex]

Fuck sake, I'm pissed now, I hope this film gets blasted by critics.
