Commence fanboy gushing. (I've already started)

I just wish they put a little more "Freeza" into the Freeza, if you know what I mean.

Edit:: *After seeing ending* O_O

Thats exactly what I was thinking during the entire thing.

I could pick it apart and say everything I didn't like about it, but I'm not going to bother, it was a fun little fan-made film, and considering that, they did a half decent job.

I think FUNImation wants their pedophile Freeza back. They should call these guys back and sue them for copyright infringement.

These people should be shot, and all traces of this should be destroyed...

I thought that was incredible, well the special effects anyway, which were remarkable for a fan-made project. Especially when they start fighting. Furiza's costume was pretty good, at 6:44 it actually looks like him from behind. Goku's hair, well the less said the better.

From about 7:15 onwards would've been interesting to shoot, seeing as all they do is scream continuously, especially Furiza, man...that guy sounds like he was on the worst roller coaster ever.

Ending was a nice twist, but it just tailed off with Furiza laughing maniacally. But I was thoroughly entertained, these guys managed to pull off a very difficult project.

I think FOX should've given them a $100-Million budget instead.

I think someone missed some obvious sarcasm.

Well, I watched some of it, and skimmed through the rest. Looked decent, but it would have been better with a larger crew, I am assuming there was the two guys in the movie plus a camera man. What would have been better also is real locations and better lighting and better camera angles, all of which can be achieved with minimum budget.

What I dislike about all live action Dragonball related stuff is the Goku Gi looks terrible. I mean, if you are not going to have a heavily muscled martial artist play goku, then you have to make the Gi tighter fitting, because loose clothes on a skinny little guys looks awful.

The freeza costume was pretty decent, looked like a good cosplay costume, but if they actually do freeza in a sequel to the live action movie, then they are going to have to go Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 1 style, with a well made rubber suit, and probably CGI over it to make it look more realistic.

I have to agree about the gi during the first part, but I think the torn-up Son Goku gi looked really awesome.

With a one million dollar budget, it would've been Casshern, with a 100 million dollar budget..it would have been extreeme.

That was really entertaining, for a fan made project I give it a 5/5.

Awesomeness as it has never been seen before!!

Very amusing. :3

I think they did well for what they had to work with.

Heh, somebody was watching movie 6 before making the "Goku turns Super" part.

That was GREAT!! That was so cool how they did that. Goku's hair could've been better, but guys always seem to like to use their own hair when they cosplay.

Certainly not the ending you'd expect. Yet sadly there's a good chance that this'll be better than the American Live Action.

...You're not in favor of a real live action DBZ movie yet you like THIS?!

I'm done with this forum. Goodbye.
