I have looked everywhere through this part of the forum and so far I haven't seen anything about the new Dragonball Live Action Movie, so Im just wanting to hear some opinions on this movie thats coming out next April "09".
I honestly don't know what to say, its one of my favourite anime shows thats going Live Action and so far Im experiencing mixed emotions about it. I think it'll turn out fantastic but at the same time there is this doubt in my mind that it'll be one big flop, so Idk.
What do you think about the new Dragonball Live Action Movie??

I know Emmy Rossum is playing Bulma. I thought that was weird. (She played Christine in Phantom of the Opera.)

Yeah that's the first thing that I was like O____________O The other casting doesn't surprise me, but I've seen quotes from Emmy herself talking about the role so it's true.... I'm thinking that it'll turn out just fine actually, and I'm hoping that other animes will begin to follow That's the only thing that I'm thinking will turn into a flop.... I'm pretty sure the Dragon Ball Z movies they're going to make are going to do well, but with it there's bound to be a couple crappy other live action anime movies, I just hope they're not Sailor Moon or Utena.

I don't mind seeing Naruto turn into live action, but I definitely don't want to see Sailor Moon turn live action, I really don't think it would work I thought X Men, Transformers and The Chipmunks turned out fantastic, even though they are not anime as such, but from animated characters turned real, they did great. I really do hope Dragonball turns out just as great But Im not getting my hopes up.

Here's a blog on the 2009 Movie coming up.... it looks okay but in my opinion it will be bad and put in the rubble where the Street Fighter Live Action movie had laid... www.dbthemovie.com

I'm really curious to see how the movie will turn out to be... and also curious to see James Marsters with a green face acting Lo Piccolo!!

This looks pretty cool. I do hope they turn Sailor Moon into a Live Action movie myself. My biggest concern is about the writing and basically the whole plot of the movie. I want it to have a good strong plot.

In another forum where I usually post, there was a discussion like this, but almost everyone was, like "OMG Dragon Ball is doomed" or "Holy crap, that movie sucks!". I don't know how much Dragon Ball is popular abroad, but here in Italy is worshiped in a kinda insane way XD (it has been aired almost every year ) Obviously, I don't like DB that much... we want something new *cries*

Hollywood's already butchered Flintstones,Fat Albert,The Mario Brothers game,Scooby-Doo,UnderDog,Popeye,He-Man and Josie & the PussyCats,and I heard somewhere they;re planning to do Mighty Mouse(they're already butchering that cartoon,too)...in my opinion,Hollywood has only defiled and made a cruel mockery of these great cartoon classics by making them into live-action movies.Now they're doing Dragon Ball..who knows how much Hollywood will decide to butcher that anime classic(I betcha that Oolong is going to be a regular-looking pig what can talk). I shudder to think of what Hollywood will do to other cartoons and animes such as Sailor Moon and Marshall Bravestarr........

It's either going to be good and surprise everyone or be another movie for my friends and I to complain about excessively. From what they've released about it so far, I'm not all that impressed. xD;

No offense, but why are they using a Caucasian as Goku. I would think they would pcik someone who, you know, looks Asian.

I will admit, imo Justin Chatwin looks like Goku, especially the shape of his face. As for more anime going live action, Ive already read somewhere that Akira is going to turn live action and Leonardo Dicaprio is going to play Kaneda and be producer of the film. Im really not all that fussed but I am hoping Dragonball will turn out great, and Sailor Moon to never ever turn or even be talked about as a hollywood live action film. It just wont work...
