DISCUSS! :cool:

my vote is for a movie of Speed Racer quality.

What? Db movie? Nope. No, that's not real.
It's a urban myth.
I have not seen anything.
:(

Oh No, Oh No, Oh no no no no no! NO! Oh NOES! NOOOES!

Well, I hope they don't make it suck.

They're clearly off to an even worse start than even I would have guessed.

...I think I would even say I would rather see this (http://www.megamanfilm.com/home.html). And I'm a fan of that franchise.

It's kind of like saying I'd rather be kicked in the left knee than the right.

Egad :(

my vote is for a movie of Speed Racer quality.

Wait... is that supposed to be a good or bad thing?

That actor has nothing physically similar to Goku (well except the hair and the wide skull)

and talking of speedracer, Yamcha is played by Joon-Hyung Park who played a Yakuza driver in speed-racer :P

Wait... is that supposed to be a good or bad thing?if you have to ask that question you've clearly not seen speed racer :p

edit: oh god! the pain! the video on that mega man movie you linked, zeor, is just awesome!

It's... actually pretty old news, guys. You lot are behind on the times.

That megaman movie looks... well

I found that on the site...

It's... actually pretty old news, guys. You lot are behind on the times.

I didn't even know that Pixar had made a new movie named WALL-E until yesterday.

What's with all the Cartoon-And-Videogame Movies lately?

Sure, Marvel can do it, because they can do it WELL; most videogame movies turn out like crap (read: Super Mario Movie).
Let's see:

Halo Movie (soon)
MegaMan Movie (soon too)
Crysis Movie (further away)

WHO KNOWS WHERE IT SHALL END?!


Please not a Sonic movie. Please. It would suck. BAD.

It's... actually pretty old news, guys. You lot are behind on the times.the reason I posted this wasn't because of the movie itsself. the movie is extremely old news and isn't worth a topic of its own. the POSTER, however, warrants a bucket load of laughter :p

I didn't even know that Pixar had made a new movie named WALL-E until yesterday.coincidentally, I went and WATCHED WALL-E yesterday :p

I actually quite liked speed racer, just dont expect too much from it :p

Then again I thought Die Hard 4 was one of the best movies ever made, maybe its just me :p

Same here. I liked it!

The poster is rather new tho, and is the reason of the thread.

Er... I mean, what is old news? There is no poster. There is no db movie. I haven't seen anything.

I actually quite liked speed racer, just dont expect too much from it :poh, for pure entertainment value (disregarding completely the quality of writing), the movie was absolutely amazing. I don't think it was supposed to be as great as it was, but it definitely was pure awesome win.

oh, for pure entertainment value (disregarding completely the quality of writing), the movie was absolutely amazing. I don't think it was supposed to be as great as it was, but it definitely was pure awesome win.

Exactly :D Pure awesome win ftw? :p

Exactly :D Pure awesome win ftw? :pyeah, but that doesn't really count. now, Best B-movie of the year? oh yeah! but actually good movie in the sense that it wasn't a travesty against man kind? not so much :p

That text ain't red enough to make us do anything!

Yeah, this is pretty old news guys.

Stephen Chow's involvement is a great sign, Kung Fu Hustle isn't far off what I want this film to be.

And of course James Masters (AKA Spike from Buffy the vampire slayer) is playing piccollo.

Even if it's absoloutely terrible it would have to be pretty special to be worse than the animated Dragonball Z films.

Yeah, this is pretty old news guys.well, the poster was new, as I'd said earlier. that was what made it thread-worthy :p

Stephen Chow's involvement is a great sign, Kung Fu Hustle isn't far off what I want this film to be.ok, I could actually go with that. if he makes it intentionally horrid it could be rather amusing.

Even if it's absoloutely terrible it would have to be pretty special to be worse than the animated Dragonball Z films.now THAT you couldn't be more right about....

Stephen Chow's involvement is a great sign, Kung Fu Hustle isn't far off what I want this film to be.

He's merely producing it, though.

All producers do is say what can and can't make it through.
I suppose they probably suggest things, too, but that's not exactly a whole lot of creative control.

But he's Stephen Chow, he's awesome. He wouldn't get involved in a project that is crap.

I love him as much as anyone, and a Dragonball movie with awesome/goofy Stephen Chow style action would be utterly spectacular, but I'm not going to hold my breath.

Tune in next week for another episode of Crappy Adaptations, when we take a look at Max Payne!

Please not a Sonic movie. Please. It would suck. BAD.

They already made one.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog:_The_Movie

It really wasn't that bad either.

I've got it on VHS. As well as the complete SatAM.

Only slightly obsessed. :mad:

They already made one.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog:_The_Movie

Be thankful it was the OLD Sonic. Imagine one nowadays.

Yeah the Sonic movie and AOSTH were the best. The rest though... :(

Screw an animated movie; I want one that mixes CGI with live action.

Just think of it! :D

Whoa, that old movie had some weeeird stuff there. Read the 'censorship' entry.

Whoa, that old movie had some weeeird stuff there. Read the 'censorship' entry.none of those are especially alarming to me.

Yeah it's just your average anime humour, there's various clips (http://www.youtube.com/results?q=Sonic+OVA+Funny+Moment) on YouTube.

I was actually planning on buckling white strips of fabric over red shoes. :p

I'll be watching that new panda movie tommorow. (Kung Fu Panda)

If there was any movie i'd like to see based on a popular game, it would be a mario one. I like him... alot.

The last movie i want to see, is a worms movie! that would suck sooo badly:p

WALL-E i might watch. I think it comes out 18th July.

The should do a Metal gear movie.

Oh wait they did. They called it Guns of the Patriots.

That's right. I went there.

I went there with bells on.:cool:

I wanna see a movie based on that E.T. game for Atari. :cool:

I've seen that. I've never laughed so hard whilst watching a movie ever. I also cried a fair amount to.

Did you ever see the tv show?!

I actually liked the movie.....when I was 5 :p

I imagine I'd just hang myself if I saw it now

It'll probably be based off this (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_X). :p
You have no idea how much I'm raging right now, because you're probably right.

Did you ever see the tv show?!

For some reason, the one and only memory of that show is of Sonic and Knuckles, both of them incredibly obese, sitting in foliage and dressed as army generals. They were eating éclairs.

I have no idea if that was a dream or if it really happened.

none of those are especially alarming to me.

Yes well i meant 3D, not 2D.

Yes well i meant 3D, not 2D.it's live-action. by definition it has to be 3D :confused:

Oh. I meant 3D animated.

Also, i watched Kung Fu Panda today. It was pretty good, i thought.

Oh. I meant 3D animated.ah. well it was before the time of any real 3D animation. still worth watching if you're under the age of 8 :p

As the forum's resident 'PS3 Fanboy' I feel I should be stepping in to tell you how ENTIRELY WRONG WRONG YOU ARE ITS ART ITS ART ITS ART.

But when I say '1 and a half hour cutscene', I like to think Im being sarcastic...

Everytime I look at this thread's title I think of this: http://egoraptor.net/

Egoraptor is awesome. This movie isn't.

The only truly good part of Dragonball was the original series since it was filled with surprisingly decent and yet strangely perverted humor. The author even made testicle jokes about the title, for crap's sake.

Are you aware we say it's awesome because the guy has hair like if it was glued, a huge forehead, a stick, a totally normal shirt, odd effects on the ball and background, and epic blurry quality?

At least it's the idea I got from this D:

The old Dragonball comic (manga, whatever) was "so bad it's good", this is just horrible in every way and not even unintentionally funny.

That was my point.

I kinda wonder if these guys have ever even SEEN dragonball...

These look like they belong in a comic book.

I'm thinking Super Mario Bros sized epic failure.

These look like they belong in a comic book.


They look like they'd be the stars in some sort of circus nobody wants to go visit.

It isn't properly involved with Stephen Chow unless there's a female character with some kind of defect. :p

oh no you guys piccolo isn't green (http://dbthemovie.com/2008/09/02/new-dragonball-screenshots/) :( :( :(

well at least they got the damn orange gi right in those pics.

master roshi needs his mustache....

Ok, let's see... not green... no antennae... wearing gay clothes instead of his awesome classic outfit...

Glod, everything about those screenshots looks just HORRIBLE. D: D: D: D: D:

On the plus side, there's a slight possibility that we will all be obliterated when they turn on the Large Hadron Collider in a few days...

well at least they got the damn orange gi right in those pics.


It's actually the wrong shade of orange. :P

But pettiness aside:

master roshi needs his mustache....
And his SUNGLASSES and his BALD HEAD... and apparently, his CHARMING PERSONALITY. D:

Seriously, you can't tackle something like DBZ and just instantly scrap all the recognizable features of it's characters... D:

And his SUNGLASSES and his BALD HEAD... and apparently, his CHARMING PERSONALITY. D:I can get over the sunglasses and the bald head I could mostly get over if he just had the damn mustache......and if they made his personality different as well then the whole thing is a waste :-/

I was only able to identify Roshi in how he was the only oldish-looking man on the thing. Also, er, are you supposed to be able to tell any of the women apart? Will that be important?

Edit: oh no you guys piccolo isn't green*hURLS*

I was only able to identify Roshi in how he was the only oldish-looking man on the thing. Also, er, are you supposed to be able to tell any of the women apart? Will that be important?have you ever watched dragonball? just look for the glowy blue and yellow lights. those are the only parts of the screen you're supposed to see.

18 years old, Goku is considered uncool and unpopular at school, but he is in fact an extremely talented martial arts fighter who gets rigorous training from his grandfather, Gohan.

and also Bulma:

http://www.toxicshock.tv/news/wp-content/uploads/dragonball_movie_poster3.jpg

Here again, without bright teal-colored hair, what's the difference?

she DOES seem to have the teal highlights at least :-/

among the character designs hers is probably butchered the least so far...granted I have full confidence they're fix that.

oh no you guys piccolo isn't green (http://dbthemovie.com/2008/09/02/new-dragonball-screenshots/) :( :( :(

There are sooo many things wrong with that thing. :eek:

MAKE HIM GREEN FOR GOD'S SAKE(And add his antennas)
And they should change his clothing.

I don't know if this movie will be a bad movie or not, but it definitely is NOT dragon ball. Why don't they just change the name of the movie, the character names, and tada! Just leave the DB franchise out of this. D:


On that matter, I found this other video that, despite having worse acting and effects, would be a lot better than what hollywood is making:

Because that won't get them extra money from loyal idiotsfans.

But yes, by the looks of it, they did decide to leave out the super-human parts to it. Aside form energy explosions, of course.

I think I heard something about a prophecy.....I'm confused...

and they left out the superhuman bits? I saw both roshi and goku shoot SOMETHING shiny out of their hands. didn't look thick enough for a kamehameha, but it was SOMETHING for certain.

and they left out the superhuman bits? I saw both roshi and goku shoot SOMETHING shiny out of their hands. didn't look thick enough for a kamehameha, but it was SOMETHING for certain.
Hence the "energy explosions". I was thinking more of the super-human natural feats. The trailer's fighting scenes seems a lot more... tame than the cartoon's scenes.

It looks like just another kung fun movie, which seem to be all the rage these days. (I guess the fad looped around)

um,was it just me or in one of those posters did i see a gun?

um,was it just me or in one of those posters did i see a gun?they did have guns in dragonball.

It just keeps getting worse... Definitely not touching that movie, not even with a 10 foot pole.
I only hope the movie gets properly done in a few years, completely ignoring this pos. Kinda like they did with Hulk. :P

I sometimes go see movies that try to be good, but fail EPICLY. They usually give a laugh or two.

A sound of thunder (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Ofz0GaRZws)... WATCH IT.

And yes, one of those things was a monkeysaurus.

Reception
The film received overwhelmingly negative critical reviews.[1] Common complaints against the film included its poor special effects, uninvolved performances, scientific errors, Ben Kingsley's hair[2][3][4], and lack of respect for its source material. As a result of poor reviews and lack of promotion, the film--which was estimated to have cost $52 million--grossed less than $8 million in worldwide release.

Any movie that screws up science that badly deserves to be a commercial flop.

Note, deserves. They often don't. Case in point, "The Day After Tomorrow".


RUN AWAY FROM THE COLD! CLOSE THE DOOR ON IT!

RUN AWAY FROM THE COLD! CLOSE THE DOOR ON IT!well I'm sure, given the circumstances of it being a blast of air, that it would slow the cold down....by approximately 5 seconds, but hey! whatever :p

also, shame on all of you for not requiring yourself to watch the trainwreck that is dragonball the movie! it's is going to be hilarious :D

Because there's the risk they'll make money from it, which would lead to a sequel, thus reducing the chances for a proper remake. D:

Plus there's the fact that I don't think anyone except you watched the origional Dragonball episodes. It'll probably seem like a half-decent film to us.

Is the original Dragonball much different from Dragonball Z?

Is the original Dragonball much different from Dragonball Z?absolutely. I mean, if you're familiar with DBZ it would be similar enough that you could enjoy it, but DB was a different style. DBZ was all just "a big nasty thing shows up, everyone must randomly learn new techniques to kill him" where as DB used a lot of the standard anime practices of teaching morals and team work and that sort of thing to overcome your opponents with intelligence. the only move goku knew in DB was the kamehameha, so it was much more common to see him try to trick his opponents.

basically, dragonball was just more plot-driven in the same way that goldeneye was a very plot-driven bond show. dragonball had tons of pointless action and manly grunting and such, but there was much more depth to the show that is present in DBZ. the essence of that seems to be in the movie, but absolutely nothing else :p edit: sort of along the same lines as DBZ was in the fight with radditz up till the fight with vegeta and such. more plot, less pointless action, but still plenty of action so you don't have to think TOO much :p

my point on not enjoying the show was just that if you don't know the plot for DB then you can't possibly appreciate the rape as much as I'm going to when I go watch the movie :D

And what was GT like? I watched Z but hated GT and pretty quickly stopped watching

And what was GT like? I watched Z but hated GT and pretty quickly stopped watchingPAH! I watched until about half through the Buu saga before I got fed up with the series. dragonball I watched and enjoyed throughout, but DBZ shat on everything that was DB (at least after the frieza saga....and about half of THAT saga, for that matter)

The frieza and cell saga were awesome D:< . The buu saga was just about ok, if only because of the whole fat buu and mr satan(hercule) thing. :p
Dragon ball GT is utter crap because it was not written by Akira Toriyama. It was just an unsuccessful attempt to try to milk the series more.

Oh I half forgot and assumed Z ended when frieza ended. Next was Cell right? I didnt watch to the end of thatyeah. cell came next.

and mtl, cell series would've been.....ok, if not for the fact that it was surrounded by them doing the same thing over and over. if the series would've ended after cell, I probably would've accepted teh cell saga as decent, but since it continued on the path of "random enemy showing up out of nowhere who's infinitely stronger than everyone else, so everyone else gets randomly stronger", the cell saga sucked :p

yeah. cell came next.

It did not suck. There was even TIME TRAVEL! >:O

Also you got to see Vegeta kicking ass for the first time in like, ever, right before cell got to perfect form, and also after when he used the final flash. Another great moment was when Tien Shinhan managed to stop the imperfect cell for a while using that weird technique of him. And Mr Satan hilariousness. And the culprit of it all when, some years after cell is defeated, they show a "recreation" of the fight in the tournament. :p

edit: Right, also the buu saga contains one of the best fights in DB, when goku fights the possessed vegeta. >:O
