Well, I'll keep it short and sweet so you can flame me over it without reading too much.
No anime should be moved into a Live Action movie. Totally discredits the anime.
Look at Guyver! Mark Hamilton ruined the manga series with his crap acting.
So what they hired on Chao Yun Fat? He's doing anything these days.
Goku doesn't have the build or necessary looks, same with Bulma. She's like some bloody soldier.
I say the film will get big numbers, big reviews for those who haven't seen the anime or are totally naive thinking:
"I've seen the anime, and the movie IM SO COOl!"
To make it simple:
IT WILL SUCK.

You pretty much nailed it in the last line.
This movie just doesn't look, smell, or sound at all like the Dragonball I remember watching as a little kid.

dude, i fully agree. It will suck eggs. No anime should be made into a live action movie. You read my mind. +rep to you.

You think anime live action movies are bad..?? do u see what they hav done (and are trying to do) with videogame movies..?? XD never has a videogame movie been better than the actual game... but some of the movies still are decent moives... if u giv them a chance...
It's hard turning a vision into a live action one...
It's probably rare that a live action movie will be better than the anime, but some anime movies were pretty decent... take the Death Note movies for example... they were pretty alright in my opinion...
People have too high expectations... I say just sit back and watch for yourself... then u decide... To say a movie sucks without seein it is just like sayin it doesnt suck without seein it...
On a side note, Ide like to say this:
It most likely wont be as good as the show, but I think the Cowboy Bebob movie would be pretty good :o (if there is one).. Im almost 60% sure it wont suck... :laugh:

The movie looks lame, I think Piccolo should be black if they aren't gonna make him green. Don't wanna sound racist, but if any character is going to be black, its gotta be Piccolo... hes so chill, got the exact same personality of a black guy... wouldn't surprise me if he had himself a bowl every now and then =P

Really, it isn't the Anime movies in general. Its Fox. I think the Americanized version of Cowboy Bebop will rock. If Fox doesn't do it. Fox tends to ruin everything with their big budget, special effects mentality. The only reason why the first X-Men movie was good was because it was a low budget movie.
Also on a side note, Leo DiCaprio is staring and directing in an Americanized version of Akira. Turns out he is an anime freak like us.

Come stop hating on the FOX, not if your taking FOX News then hate all you like, hell I'd join ya:D but not 20th Century FOX. If really lies more on the actors and directors rather than the actual film studio. FOX provides the budgets, what directors and producer do with it lie with them. Now I'm not saying that Dragonball Evolution is good or bad because I haven't seen it yet. But FOX makes tons of good films and franchises and I believe that they'd got a chance to make a hit. Though not every film they make is a hit, this is the movie biz and every fumbles sometimes, just look at Superman Returns ugh..., My point is you can't judge a film by the studio behind only the actors and directors bringing it to life, Thats the real reason why the X-Men succeeded and why gonna try to pull Akira out his ass,After seeing his recent film I believe he might pull it off since the new Tough guy Leo is on my favs.:cool:
Side Note: For those of you so put off by seeing real people staring in actual live action movie then I suggest you stick to watching this film since us living folk scare ya so much

Turning animation into live action has always been strange to me because the fact that it's animation and live action is one of the things that make it interesting in the first place.
Still, animation to live action can work but it has to be stuff that is more down to earth. Shows like Dragonball in live action just come off silly and have to be heavily changed so they don't come off that way. That of course ruins the original appeal the property had in the first place. :yell:
And bringing up the Guyver movie. Say what you want about Mark Hamil's acting but that was the least of that movies problems. :D

I have my reasons for hating that studio. In my eyes, over the last few years, Fox has only put out like 2 good movies. I don't trust them. At all. I still think that its all a trick and once I get into the theater, the doors are going to shut and Sean Hannity is going to pop out and rape me.

Turning this Anime into a live action show has gone horrible already. lol, Goku in high school, there's a bully, he's a wimpy person, he can't live up to the challenge, no capsules now it's future tech remote control stuff instead, Demon Piccolo's skin is ghostly white instead of green, no Shenron appearance just his voice and lights out of clouds (from what I heard and lol, is he God now?), Bulma packing heat, etc. This isn't Dragon Ball anymore, this is a horrible mock up of the series in a short made movie to cover the whole series as a whole. This is like combining The Power Rangers Movie with Transformers. This does not fit "Dragon Ball" at all. Maybe this movie will be good for what it is, but as a Dragon Ball movie, no. Just rename the movie and take out all the Dragon Ball copy righted stuff, and then I'll maybe go see this movie if someone would pay for my ticket with snacks and a drink. Justin thinks his hair looks like Goku's just because he spiked it in a weird way, no it doesn't. What an ego he has. His hair looks retarded and doesn't even look like Goku's hair. I've seen Goku cosplayers with better Goku hair than him, and a Goku Hair Wig I saw on ebay better than his "Goku" hair if you would even call it that. His hair looks like a Mohawk gone wrong. lul.

Josh-sama, you fail at flaming so don't even try.
And about the Akira movie, Leonardo Dicaprio will only be the producer and the problem is that the movie costs around 300 million dollars to make, that's why it's not yet confirmed that it will be released.
Apparently you can't tell that you aren't a very good flamer, either.
You use some of the oldest jokes, you probably waste your days by thinking up new comebacks and disses (that are crappy).
So I wouldn't be the one talking.
