What if DBE was more like this...

Now I'm willing to forgive a few liberties here and there, like Goku going to high school and whatnot... Hollywood always screws stuff up and it's almost expected by now... but the movie needed more action and fighting. If I was in charge and forced to go with thie route... I would have had the following...

Make Goku arrive in time to see Gohan die at Piccolo's hand. Have the traditional 'first face off between hero and villian where villian totally thrashes the hero's ass to show just how weak and helpless he is compared to the villian'.

Make Roshi perverted... he should groped.. and kept gropping Bulma's ass until she elbowed him in the face or something.

Make Yamcha FIGHT. Make Goku jump out of the hole and do a short Roga Fuu Fuu Ken/ Jan Ken Pon fight until they agree to work together or something. Hell, give Yamcha his sword.

Make Piccolo's men look like Cymbal, Tamborine and Drum, instead of those lame Fullers. Make Goku, Roshi AND Yamcha fight them. In that fight scene, everything was so fuckin dark and blurry, I mean we never even got to clearly see what the Fullers look like, and I don't even remember if Roshi himself was fighting or not, it seemed it was all Goku.

Final fight, kinda like what we saw in the movie but longer. Like, a longer air-fight scene. Make Goku toss a Kame Hame Ha in a big 'heroic last hope' scene... and it does nothing to Piccolo. Make Piccolo blast Goku's leg. Then When Goku props himself up with his Pole, make Piccolo blast his other leg, the Pole away, and one of his arms. Have Piccolo kick at Goku a bit. Bulma and Yamcha will try to help and get swatted back easily. (Like make Picolo block the Roga Fuu Fuu Ken with one hand and blast him away, and have Bulma shoot at him, and he does the cool Matrix-catch-all-the-bullets in his hand thing and bitchslap her back or something). Then Piccolo can fly up, ready to fire. Goku can have his 'I'm an ohzaru' and whatnot pep talk to himself and yell out 'YOU FORGOT THAT I STILL HAVE ONE GOOD ARM!!!'. He'll then KameHame Ha himself flying up with his good arm, and as Piccolo goes all 'O.O?' Goku extends his fist and runs him through. And then before Piccolo dies, he spits out the egg and explodes.

And maybe... just maybe, since Mai was so random, maybe a human Ninja Shou coulda been there too. Gives Yamcha someone to fight. Or hell, throw Tao Pai Pai in there since I doubt any sequel would bring back DB characters, but make him bad-ass. Piccolo needed more than just some random woman running around. Or at least explain that Mai found the jar and released him and Piccolo tricked her into working for him in exchange for being his queen when he rules the world or something, blah blah blah.

The movie would be so much better if it was like that. People these days don't know how to direct.

You're not really contibuting anything that with post.
I like some of your ideas, but it could all be summed up by saying "being more faithful to the manga". Though I think the Piccolo killing Gohan idea would be interesting, it seems a little too dark to be honest.

Well, that's what happened in the movie. I mean, Goku coulda arrived in time to see Sith Lord Piccolo use the Force to bring the house down on Gohan.

If you have nothing to contribute, then please don't waste your and our time by posting something like this. You not wanting to talk about something has no bearing on all other conversations.

Honestly, I just want some Kuririn. Though he was dead, oh well. Good ideas though, I agree with the fact that the fight with the Fullers was way to fucking dark.

Be more faithful to the manga. That's it.

If they added 40 minutes to the movie it could have been better.

5 minutes for Mai back story and development.
15 minutes for nothing but Piccolo doing shit.
20 minutes divided between all the action scenes making them longer...and better I suppose.

But...Piccolo DOES kill Gohan.
