Dragon “NO” Balls for an Evolutionary Movie!!!
How could it have "the balls" to become a movie?
Original Post by: “Guido Abdalla” guidoab@gmail.com
As a Dragon Ball fan I am very disappointed with the outcome of the movie.
They forgot very important details such as characters, effects and more quality in the plot of it.
First of all Goku was never Piccolo’s sidekick and in the movie they
made it look like that, Kamme House was on an island and Grandpa Gohan was killed by Goku when he was a little boy, not by Piccolo.
I could continue complaining about how disastrous was the movie but I will finish my post writting about the ”ultimate battle”, Goku vs Piccolo.
It was a very short battle it didn’t last long enough, the special effects had nothing special and the “Kamehameha” was the worst thing ever!!!! I just would like to ask all of the producers, directors that if they are going to reproduce an anime movie, they should do it with respect to the fans and a bunch more effort in the little details!!!!
Goku should've blasted the movie director: James Wong
Piccolo should've given an anime lesson to the movie producer: Stephen Chow

I think the lack of seriousness is an issue in this kind of films. There is the word that 20th Century Fox is thinkin about a trilogy. There is a blog (dragonball.saiyanisland.com/)that confirms it with some statements made by Abraham Sullivan, 20th Century Fox spokesman, and James Masters himself (he played Piccolo). If the conformation is true they will have to put some…well a lot of efford, to make us forget about the Evolution that never came!!!
Not only a lot of effort… Just change the whole dam crew. Dragon Ball looked like a “pilot” movie, not like a true “anime” one.
I´m probably one of the biggest fans of the Dragon Ball anime series. Although i`ve never had the pleasure of reading a DB comic, I`ve seen (literally) all DB anime episodes, from the beginning to GT.
Its good i now know that the movie sucked (well i knew it when i first saw the trailer) and that i don´t have to pass through a 2 hour movie disgrace, but still i was a little excited that a small tribute was being paid to Manga´s masterpiece.
I really hope (and I´m talking about all comic adaptations) that someday producers, directors and “movie stars” that are hired to participate in a movie based on a comic, consider the true fan points of view. And don´t worry, we do understand that you do have to make slight changes on the story progression (not the comic´s essence) for viewers that have never had contact with the series, but PLEASE consider that there are people in this planet (like me and TIGUI) that know each and every detail of the anime itself. We just don´t want to be punked by another of Hollywood´s summer “blockbuster”.
GREAT BLOG BY THE WAY…
