(you didn't hear it from me)

I don't know if that's "piracy" or not, but I don't think that's the kind of link we want passed around here. ~Lag

This movie always looked bad, which is unfortunate, since Dragonball was an awesome show.

I bet they lost a shitton of money, I've seen about 5 commercials for it in the past half hour...on the same channel too.

Never saw what was so special about Dragon Ball, so no. I have other, better things to see and do.

It's a clunky, tiresome, badly executed, horribly written pile of shame that deserves no quarter.


That explains not only the upcoming movie, but the Eragon movie as well. Where's Mel Gibson when you need him?

Wow, you must have had really really really low expectations to say that.

Everything about a real life Dragonball movie is just completely wrong. Whoever had the idea to make this into a real life movie is stupid, and retarded. And stupid.
