A Venture Doomed to Failure approaches! Command?

Hoo boy.

This could mean the end of careers.
The revolution is successful, but survival depends on drastic measures. Your continued existence represents a threat to the well-being of society. Your lives means slow death to the more valued members of the colony. Therefore I have no alternative but to sentence you to death. Your execution is so ordered.

Hey, it can't be that bad. They at least tried to use Goku's surname, afterall.

It's DBZ and I really doubt it's possible to screw it up. That show always struck me as fanwank and nothing better. Right up those guys alley.

Plot, we don't need no stinkin' plot! We got fights!

Maybe, just maybe, the diretor won't screw it up. Please God?

Alright, looking at the (rumored) actors. Hugh Jackman as Goku and Ray Parks as Vegeta? I could see Ray Parks doing Vegeta, but there is no way in hell that Jackman could pull of Goku!. I have to go along with goldberg for Nappa. He does look sort of like him.

Now the real question bugging me is this. Who the hell is gonna play Krillin? What actor could pull off a six-Buddhist dot, martial-artist, midget? :shock:

A shitty show is poised to turn into a shitty movie. I'd be surprised by anything else.

DBZ didn't have enough of a story to be made into live action, & the characters where too cartoon-ish to be played by live acters. its never gonna work.

If it's a 1.5 hour movie, 1.25 of those hours will be spent by them charging up... :roll:

Hey! If you don't like it then don't go! I don't think too many DBZ fans watch it for the damn plot either but its still one of the most popular Cartoon franchises around. Bwahaha!

I hope they dont fuck it up! Stick to the fights and make them look good!

Of course skimmer would be against it though, superheroes that destroy planets on a whim and can shrug off attacks from even the heaviest armors generally offend him BwahahaHAHAh!!!!!

Also, this has been in the works since 2001. So its not like they are rushing this into production.
