K&K Web Series

Post by Avenged » Sat Jan 10, 2015 3:25 pm

They claim FOX never had rights to DBZ and only DB. Which is false and true in the sense that FOX got the rights from Shueisha to create an adaptation from the manga, not the anime. They go on to mention trying to get the rights for a web series.

I really doubt they can make something similar to Street Fighter, thoughts? If they did get the rights I wouldn't know how to react. I supported these guys for quite some time, but their final results of that saiyan saga trailer was just awful.

I also don't know how to react, I wasn't a very big fan of their Saiyan Saga trailer but I'm sure that they can improve. They must feel pumped since they're actually getting contact with Toei but I'm sure that they'll get turned down.

I think it's a step in the right direction and much better than Evolution. Budget contrasts is probably wants holding them back since they're a small production company. It would be funny if they acquire the rights and Toriyama decides to supervise part of the project because he doesn't want another Evolution :P.

There's a lot of little things K&K do in their videos that bother me.. Their ideas are good but it just doesn't feel 100% passion. I don't understand why they mess with the kamehameha hand formation. Anyways.. The robotunderdog trailer looks great when compared. K&K have potential though.. They just gotta get those little things right...

Their Goku vs. Superman project looks awful. Knowing them, they will have Goku win and you will have a million Superman & DC fanboys telling them that Superman should have won :roll: . It's like Screw Attack's Death Battle but in reverse.

Well Robot Underdog is doing their own web series which IMO will be better than KK's. As for the rights...will that make it a slightly official adaptation similar to Street Fighter Assassin's Fist? If so, I'd rather a different production company do this.

Most web series are often terrible. The second Mortal Kombat Legacy season was garbage and they made Ermac look like something rip from Uwe Boll's House of Dead. I don't get why people act like that you need to be a fan to do a proper adaption. Bryan Singer knew little to nothing about the comics and he made a good X-Men movie back in 2000. People forget that James Wong is a fan of the series and he still screw up the movie. I don't think these guys will do any better then what James Wong did with DBE. Being more faithful does not make something better.

Maybe it's because anyone with the vaguest interest in portraying this in any facet is a guaranteed simpleton.
