I swear, the moment I layed my lazy eyes on this, they just popped up just like this: 0…0 And I started shouting in the internet cafe “What the heck! What the heck! What the heck!” and the one beside me just went 0.o
What’s wrong with Hollywood?! Oh yeah– This one!!!
What’s next? Naruto? Bleach? Not that I’m leveling these two with DB…. Bleach wins over the other two (bias)!!!
I just hope they don’t crew-up their version of Death Note. This just shows that not everything that’s good in anime can be good in Hollywood, and from mangas too for that matter.
On a non-anime side note, Rakuen just finished watching the film MIRRORS. It’s very enjoyable to watch, and I already have ideas on how to put it in the manga pages, but I don’t wanna do it. Seriously.

I thought that they’d been having a go at making a DBZ Live Action for a while now.
October 4th, 2008 at 2:19 pm
Well, it’s suppose to be Dragon Ball, not DBZ since there going by story wise. If they even did that right…*sigh*

Agreed, Bleach wins. The real problem is compressing the storylines, but w/e

I heard Dragon Ball’s live action movie a long time ago and I face palmed immediately.
October 5th, 2008 at 12:26 am

I’m surprised you didn’t show the Piccolo picture. That’s awesome. :3
October 6th, 2008 at 12:08 pm
Maybe the movie will be so corny that it’s good…? Probably not.
October 6th, 2008 at 4:37 pm
That’s what I’m looking at. The “so bad it’s good” territory. :3

IT WAS A FAKE TRAILER!!! LMAO!
DB Legends had the opportunity to talk with Twentieth Century Fox about the leaked promotional footage, believed by some to be the theatrical trailer, as well as the trailer we’d see with Max Payne. This is what they had to say:
“First off, we love your enthusiasm for the film. We are so sorry to ask that you remove the content. It is not meant to irritate or discourage you and your readers from following this film campaign. It’s just that the pieces of content that are being leaked were not created to be used this way. They were only meant to be shown to potential Licensing & Merchandising partners who need to make partnering decisions far in advance of release date, and the content has not been approved for online use. Elements like music clearances and even talent approvals have not been pursued because we had no intention of having this go online. Alot goes into a trailer or video being authorized for online use….
We had hoped to have a really kick-ass trailer done by MAX PAYNE’s in-theater date, but because alot of effects shots are still being worked on - we’ve decided to wait until there is more material to work with, so we can really “wow” you and the fans. This is not uncommon for a film that still has 6 months until it goes in theaters. It looks like the real trailer will be released a little later in the year.
Again, thanks for all your interest. I am happy to update you when we get new artwork and approved video to distribute. We appreciate you removing the content, and don’t mean to cause you any headaches with your readers”
In short, the promotional footage that was recently leaked is not the theatrical trailer and that the official, theatrical trailer will not be released with Max Payne on October 17th, but rather later in the year.

as someone who grew up in the dragonball generation… damn you hollywood!!! i get vibes of cheese and corn since they announced this. unless they pull something out of their asses that would shut every DB fan… *sigh* that would probably never happen…
