naw. the movie will do just fine. i do think they did make a mistake with not having krillin in it tho. i am a little skeptical tho about it. i’m a huge fan. but as soon as i see a trailer i’ll make up my mind. but over all i think it will be ok just cause dragonball is so popular. altho. i am also a huge godzilla fan and they messed that movie up big time. so we’ll see.

Those who stubbornly held hope for this flick had to keep changing their excuses with every new piece of information coming out.
Therefore, the conclusion is that this movie sucks and will flop, especially with the new addition of more members to the boycott in Japan after the release of this poster.

Oh John…
At first i didnt argue when it seemed u were just guessing from the poster (and little knowledge) of dragonball, that the movie would flop.
But the more comments i read down, it seemed to turn into a deffinite “This WILL flop”.
I dissagree with you alot. and you really shouldnt be that sure when your not familiar with it, and a trailer hasent showed up yet.

Doesn’t look that good. Japanese letters (or whatever they are) probably say “This is Shit”

IMO remake of manga / anime shouldn’t use a real life actor, it will look better if they use 3d animation… let pixar do the remake

here is some data.

After pokemon and disney ,dragon ball is the 3rd related anime/cartoon most saled video game tittle of all time.

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai (2.583 million approximately: 2.04 million in US,[20] 543,312 in Japan)[145]

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 2 (2.007 million approximately: 1.5 million in US,[20] 507,245 in Japan)[145

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai 3 (1.782 million approximately: 1.14 million in US,[20] 642,424 in Japan)[145

Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2 (1.18 million)[154

Compare this with games like halo with 8 million looks little impressive,but still .

the manga was translated for portuguese,spanish,english,russian,chinese.
the anime was or still being transmited in open and closed channels in Brazil,USA an Japan.

Just because you dont like it john doesnt mean its a “minor franchise”!
I saw references to dragon ball in Superman and x men comics.
Yep 8.400.000 fan sites in goggle is less then transformers 14.000.000 but i still a BIG fan base for a cartoon that dont had anithing new in tv for decades.

THIS MOVIE PROBABLY WILL FLOP,BUT THE REASON WILL BE THE SAME AS WHY SPEED RACER FLOPED.

THE MEDIA DONT TRANSLATE WELL TO LIVE ACTION.

And in the case of speed racer:
radical AND NOT WELL MADED CHANGES in the universe of the anime .

Speed racer did really bad here(in japan) even with the heavy marketing capaign .
AND all the japanese friends i have here said “what hell is this??”when they saw the trailers.
