Okay look, I'm going to have to step in here.

This isn't Dragonball. You say "mehmehmeh more believable" I don't give a shit, Dragonball isn't SUPPOSED to be believable, what the **** happened to FANTASY?

Remember that? something you watch or play to ESCAPE the gritty grimdark world that we supposedly live in?

I could even excuse that, I can handle it being more 'modern' but the character is just all WRONG, in the trailer it has him making out with some chick, that isn't Goku, Goku only ****ing married chichi because he thought 'wedding' was FOOD. They even have him saying "I don't think I can do this.."

When have you EVER heard Goku say that? Especially before a fight?

Never. Never in a million years. Now, I know Daemon you said it's better that he's "less retarded", but he was dropped on his head as a child. I think that's more than enough of an excuse for him to be a little "Retarded".
This movie is going to rape this anime/manga, and the worst part is? I can already tell some people are going to like it and pretend to be fans of DB because of it. I just hope it bombs so badly that they don't go on to rape more of the characters with sequels.

That made me laugh, oh so hard.

Ditto. Like I keep saying, the movie is going to be as good as the source material allows it to be.

Sorry for the thread resuerrection, but with the movie coming out Wednesday it would have happened eventually. Anyway, one big development that's happened is that there will not be any pre-screenings for critics, therefore no advance reviews before the release. Oh dear, that's never a good sign, it means either their still madly trying to finish editting or they havve absolutely no hope in it whatsoever. This is going to be a pretty spectacular flop, isn't it?

I'm betting <25% on RottenTomatoes within the first week and a half. Anyone else care to make a bet lower than that?

Also Ed, I was just watching that sketch not half an hour ago. You some sort of evil hypnotist or something?

A cam version of the film came out a few weeks ago already, so the verdict on the net is already clear. It's shit, one of the few times where the fans verbal outcries are actually justified.

I say 12.

Edit: I would like to add that Goku will probably be given the full name of something like Gordon Cullen or some bull-nonsense that will allow him to be all like "Man, Gordon's such a dorky name, call me Goku."

That's one part. Where can I get box office numbers? If Speed Racer flopped, then this movie deserves to bomb.

by this stage of production, i think the movie would probably have to get a license it print its own money to return anything close to what its cost to make.

I could have sworn the original budget was a hundred million dollars. Either way, if they reshot it like my OP said it would have seriously inflated it.

At least they saved on advertising. I had no idea this movie was out.

Well, I saw it, and I was right in what I've been saying all along: the movie was as good as the source material allowed it to be. Was it completely faithful? Hell no, but for what the movie was, it delivered. I found myself very much entertained by it, and I really wouldn't mind seeing some sequels*.

*As long as when Vegeta shows up they include THAT scene. You know.

And you know what? The quality of the film extends to the licenced toys. Oh yes.
