The comparison is hilarious. Both are awful, obviously throwing stock art up on the cover in a collage of crap.

This makes a great "spot the differences" game.

I don't think I've ever seen an actual tagline on a cover for a movie compare it to another movie before. Can they even mention The Matrix? Aren't their rights issues involved?

They do that all the time on DVD covers in the UK.

I've seen it loads of times, at least on DVDs over here anyway. :?

AGGRESSIVELY.
I :lol: 'd


That cover looks sad. Just...really really bad photoshopping. I've seen better fake covers. ^^;;;

Seems like an unnecessarily desperate move comparing this to "The Matrix". (I realize the same special effects company worked on both films? Maybe? Could be wrong; I heard something like that a while back).


It's like how on Viz's Dr. Slump volumes they advertise it as by "The creator of Dragon Ball and Dragon Ball Z" but this is a waaaaaay bigger stretch than that. o_O

I just realized that it says "the kids Matrix" and not "the kids' Matrix".

For some reason I find this almost infinitely amusing. Maybe I better go to bed.

I think I've found the apostrophe that escaped from the movie tagline.

It looks like it should be a quote and definitely not a tagline, but... all I can say is, snoochie boochies. :?

Bah, Mike, you better get these Forum glitches worked out soon. They're starting to get annoying. 8)

Needless to say, I've corrected that minor computing error that was in no way my fault. :)

It really does seem like the kind of thing you'd see in a review quote or something, doesn't it? But it doesn't seem to be, unless the name of the person the quote's from is written so small that it can't be seen in the picture Bura posted.

I demand that Mike change my user title to "The Kids Matrix!".

"The “news” has been confirmed to be a lie started by the blog. If a sequel or reboot ever does happen, we’re certain Fox will try to hide it from the public like DB:E. Probably not a bad idea for their already horrible reputation lately."

That was a quote from:

http://dbthemovie.com/

looks like the reboot is a no go. Not too sure what to think of it, I wish they did a better job with this one. Looks like are only hope is if another company decides to acquire the rights and start over themselves.
...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

Not bad. He looks a little too old for the saiyajin arc (Vegeta's supposed to be in his mid/late 20's at that point) and I'm not sold on the hair, but the armor looks nice and extra points for including the tail. :D


I will say though that this fan-made Vegeta looks leagues above Chatku though in terms of accuracy. Even the facial structure is kinda there. With Chatwin there was nothing about his face that made me think "Goku" at all.


Though at this point, I don't think we're ever going to see a live action Vegeta. :(

I do like how Vegeta isn't a pretty boy in that fan art. I always pictured him as one rough ugly mother fucker.
