Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

There's so much great stuff in DB, I don't know why anyone would intentionally skip it. It's a pet peeve of mind when people feel little to no desire to go back and watch it. Even "I'll get around to it" bugs me, especially when I read it from people on this forum. But unless they make to...

Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

Regular DB covered a lot of stuff, but there wasn't really a recap of it for all the people that started with Z and that worked fine. I mean, not really. Script changes in the dub aside, skipping Goku's childhood means you miss out on how much of a manchild he can be, not to mention where his passi...

Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

The fighting is the story. They are inseparable. I still for the life of me can't understand why you would want any story to pick up towards the end instead of starting from the beginning just in a streamlined manner. You keep pointing to a recap, but that's a lot to recap and think anyone in the a...

Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

I can't think of a monumentally dumber waste of money time and resources than a live action movie that's just a direct sequel to the series. What fan would give a shit about that and why wouldn't it just be animated? Live action is a whole different medium and carries a different draw. For some may...

Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

The movies stand alone and usually aren't very good. That wouldn't be the template to use when adapting DB to live action. Terrible example with Lord of the Rings. Even the books were meant for an audience who wasn't immersed in the middle-earth lore. It gave people all (and usually way too much) i...

his life for Gohan are lessened as a result of having not experienced the first 1/3 of the story. Noooo…. The dumbest thing you can do is try to re imagine early parts of DB to fit live action. Have it not work for new audiences and anger all the old fans because of all the changes. That's how we e...

Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

Because Z started literally the week after DB. The same goes for GT. Not for a large portion of the fandom since Funi dropped DB early in its run and jumped right to Z. Not the same thing AT ALL. DB isn't backstory, it's story. Episode 4 of Star Wars is quote unquote in the middle of the story, but...

Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

Sorry Dario03, if an adaptation with any real budget is going to happen, you can't just assume mass audience has seen DB and know the characters. Like I said, it could have a recap at the beginning of the movie. Like how they explained Goku beating Freeza at the start of BoG, except make it longer ...

Re: Rumor: Disney Developing New Live-Action Dragon Ball Movie With Asian Cast

Assuming Disney wanted to do a Dragonball movie I would start with DBZ and Do Dragonball as Disney + show. I would prefer them NOT start in the middle of the story. That's like telling someone to start with The Force Awakens. I'm still not sure if live action would work great but I would prefer the...

Re: What specifically was wrong with Vic Mignogna’s take on Broly?

10's by Pantera is a fucking awesome song and I will fight ya'll if you disagree. I do like Mignogna's take on Broly in Movie 8, but his performance in Super: Broly was a very mixed bag. He's great in scenes where Broly's in his calm base form, but he just can't yell for shit. They had to loop his ...

Re: "Dragon Ball FighterZ" Official Discussion Thread

I think that the game is already overpopulated a little... Jiren and Videl was a nice touch but now with 4 more characters (with Broly not yet released), the roster is already huuuuuge for a fighting game of this format. So, getting two new extra characters MAX, would be nice, but in my opinion not...

I wouldn't mind if Kaioken went away. Blue Evolution is okay I guess but it doesn't seem like a big deal.

Re: Petition to use SS, not SSJ, as an abbreviation for Super Saiyan

I started using "SSJ" when referring to the Ascended and Ultra Super Saiyan forms (before knowing the official names were Grade 2 and 3). ASSJ Vegeta looked better than ASS Vegeta :lol: Ascended Super Saiyan was one of the rare times I would use SSJ too. I never switched the others but I ...

Re: Dragon Ball Deliverance

Wasn't sure if I should make a new thread since its been a year but there is a second episode now. I would say the fight parts are decently animated for a fan made project and the voice acting is a bit better.
