I can understand people being annoyed by KK using the Hope speech, but saying the Kamehameha the 'FUNimation way'? Come on, what does that even mean?

Pronouncing it like : Kah- May- Hah - May- Hah. Which in my opinion is not really an issue, even when I grew up with the Latin American dub which uses the japanese pronounciation. It's just the way the person speaks, no big deal.

Out of all the Fan live actions, I like the effects used here, and the dark spin off feel of "Runaways"
There's room for only one snake, and one big boss.

Has it ever been pronounced any other way in English? I've always heard Kah-may-ha-may-hah in English and Kah-meh-hah-meh-hah in other languages.

If things were like this, I guess we should criticize Vegeta's Seiyuu for saying "Fainaru Furash" and "Biguu Bang Atack" :P Instead of their Correct English Pronuntiation :P Not trying to push my opinion though, I can understand why you would not be comfortable. It's a question of Choice. :D

GODDAMN 18!!! She's hot but, she doesn't have that particular cold look 18 actually has. It's almost there, but not quite.

The only thing that bothers me is that they got the kanji on the wrong side... (I'm not even complaining on Future Gohan having a kanji on the front when he shouldn't, only that they have it on the opposite side of the chest)

Well, the pictures looked quite good, but the Kamehameha seems underwhelming. Interesting in seeing what comes of this, even if I'm not much interested in the future timeline.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

#18 looking pretty badass. Wow.

I am a total sucker for stoic badass anti-hero/villain-type female characters (Faora, Zen from 'Chocolate'). <3

Looks decent and it looks like they could be making a pretty faithful live action version. I hope they won't suck as much as KK did with their live action short.

Huh, this actually looks pretty cool. I'm down to clown with this. Definitely worth a watch at least.

The teaser video was taken down from a copyright claim from "wuz good"? I swear youtube sucks so much now they cant even approve the claims before hand.

Here's an update for anyone that hasn't been keeping up with the project http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tOSRWQuIH-U . It's a behind the scenes video with the actor who is playing android 17. They recasted him a while ago to find an actor who would look more like android 18.

This is an 80s/90s animated all-ages show that was popular amongst kids. It's not some potent super weapon that might fall into the wrong hands that we have to protect from evil.

Uh, no, those can't be compared at all.
