Is there a high-res picture of the Digital Copy disc art?

Edit:
I also found a clip which is also an extra of the DVD... Justin Chatwin explains how he got the part.

The term digital copy infuriates me. As opposed to the non-digital BD and DVD versions. :roll:

Does anyone have any listing of the worldwide sales of the disc so far?

A digital copy is as file you can playback on your computer, phone, ipod, etc. They're DRM protected and you can usually only use them on one device. For instance, if you activate it on your home PC, and you want to watch it on your laptop on a flight, you won't be able to do that. A lot of people consider them useless and would rather spend their money on actual features rather than a gimped version of the movie they already bought. Also the label "digital copy" is dumb because DVDs and Blu-Ray Discs -are- digital copies.

If that's the case then I'll put my Taken "digital copy" on the PS3.
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

I caved and picked up the DVD. Both the local Wal*Mart and HMV were sold out of the BD copies (I'm not surprised, both said they got like two copies of the BD). I'll probably pick up the BD if it goes on sale later on. Simply because that disc art with Chatwin is sweet.

Seems its doing decent on home formats atleast, as the local Wal*Mart had four rows priced as "DragonBall Evolution $22.83" or some number like that. And only two actually had the DVDs in the rows. The empty slots were filled by a copy of the Brolly Triple Feature, and DBZ Season 9.

I'd like a sequel...

I'd like a complete reboot. Different actors/actresses, different writer, different director. Possibly even a different movie studio.

Wishful thinking. All we can do now is wait for Japan to make an adaption that is "too faithful". :?

Very wishful thinking; this is true. :(

Kind of strange how none of the live action DB movies so far have been made in Japan. Especially strange how no country's ever tried to make a live action DBZ.


I'd settle for a 3-D, CGI-type deal if that was an option; even though what I really want is a full feature length (as in, something that clocks in at an hour and a half) 2-D animated movie from TOEI. Maybe something spring-boarding off the new special, but I'd be happy even with a sequel to the 10th Anniversary movie TOEI produced.
