Dragonball Evolution

Re: Dragon Ball movie

It's the first line from The Circle of Life.
I knew that.

I was going to post a picture of Rafiki holding up Simba but with the cartoon Goku's head on Rafiki's body and the live-action Goku on Simba's body. But then I was lazy and didn't.

Link no worky.

Y'know, I have to say, it really did look...horrible.

It just doesn't look like Dragonball to me. It just looks like a cheesy action movie.

I'm reserving final judgment until I see better quality, maybe an actual trailer. But I agree with Moony, does not look like what a Dragonball movie should. It looks like its gonna be like Bulletproof monk, a movie I don't watching on tv if nothing else is on, but I would never pay to see it
 
Re: Dragon Ball movie

Bulletproof Monk was not terrible.

It was however unremarkable.

And therefore not really worth seeing.

At all.

You're right it wasn't terrible, but I'm still don't want to judge this movie that soon, but I can definitely predict it being a horrible version of Bulletproof Monk
 
Re: Dragon Ball movie

Here we have some tibits on possible promotional material that we may be seeing very soon:

Goku is sitting sideways on a (non-moving) type of bike/buggy. I'm not sure if it is a three or four wheeler, but there are two wheels at the front, it looks all mean and futuristic and most importantly, it's dusty and needs a good wash.

Goku is chomping into what looks to be a turkey drumstick. Either that or it's a gigantic chicken drumstick. He's wearing his grey-black jacket and dark trousers and it's in a street setting.

In a fight scene with Goku it appears that Piccolo's ribbed armor is strapped on around his sides. He has strange black leather gloves on and a long sword with a square, not pointed end. Around his collar is quite a bit of black braid and brocade.

In all the photos of Piccolo I've seen so far, he isn't green. But in the details ones he looks like he has moss forming in his crevices, so he does have a green tinge.

Over his ribbed armor, Piccolo wears a full length hooded cloak, which is the dark browny crimson color as seen in the trailer. It has a rich texture, it looks very exotic and has rows of Sequined circles up the front panels. Extremely nice and billowy.

When Piccolo does swirly things it is revealed that he has striped panels of dark velvety pink at the back of his cloak.

Overall, I'd say he looks like a modern, darker version of Piccolo from the show. But with a bad case of black ear wax and a much better cloak.


The green tinge makes me :D as piccolo has some green to him, thank god. Also his cloak sounds cool.

And here we have a few questions that were answered by Fox (not verbatim):

Ok, I was asked not to post this verbatim (so I summarized it all) so I ask of anyone that wishes to post this to email me and ask permission. But anyways, I did get another chance to speak with FOX and I asked a few questions regarding the promotion of the Dragonball movie. Some of which we pretty much speculated already, some slightly new information and some questions couldn't be answered just yet.

1. When will promotion for the film Dragonball officially begin and what can we expect?
Promotion will truly begin when we launch the official trailer. Expect to see plenty of TV spots and action closer to the release. This is typical with any campaign. The fans will really feel the motion of the movie to begin by the end of the year and will be promoted at many targeted events in 2009.

4. How reliant is this film on visual effects? Is the majority of the money going towards CGI (such as cities, fight scenes, etc.)?
There will be a lot of amazing effects and yes.

5. How would you compare the official trailer that releases later this year to the teaser that was shown during the licensing expo?
The actual trailer will be different. The teaser shown didn't have enough 'energy' and did not fully reflect the film itself. The teaser was only inteded to show certain elements for L&M purposes and to introduce characters to trade people. This piece did not show the hardcore action that the movie will contain, but the full trailer will.


That wasn't the teaser:shock: Holy crap the actual teaser/trailer must look awesome if that's the case
 
Re: Dragon Ball movie

AICN has a report from a viewer who saw an almost complete cut of the film, with unfinished special effects, minus the score and credits.
Overall, I would give the movie a 6.5/10 simply because i was expecting disaster but it turned out better. [...] But in all seriousness I am glad it aint the disaster I thought it would be.
More from this link.
 
Re: Dragon Ball movie

It's funny when I first saw the title of the thread today my eyes immediately interrupted as "Worst Movie Ever". I find this funny
 
Re: Dragon Ball movie

Another pic from the movie for ya all:

Great Ape Goku! .......Yeah, that looks stupid.



It could be during the transformation. From human to that to giant monkey. If not hopefully it'll work in the film but I agree that does look bad.


A couple of theories I've read online is :

a) We were told Piccolo can create evil-doppelgangers of people. What if that is the evil alien Goku that Piccolo creates?

b) There seems to be no CGI in that shot. What if they were adding CGI hair to it in the final film?


Both of these seem great and I'll admit as horrible as that looks if had cgi ape/werewolf type hair it would be pretty damn cool.
