  • @prince_nocturne
    @prince_nocturne Před 7 lety +208

    A few things to note that Krim left out. And once again, this ended up longer than intended, so I'm sorry.
    About Piccolo: James Marsters actually did research into the show and manga when he got the role, wanting to be as close as he could (or more as the adaptation would allow), which is why he's actually one of the most enjoyable parts of the movie... such as it is. He is the ONLY actor to have done this. Another thing is that the bit about his makeup looking good is.... wrong. Very wrong. How wrong? It was actually WHITE! They had to color-correct it in post after a production leak showed him as ghost-white and fans lost their shit. Marsters himself also argued for this correction, again showing he was the only one in the production that gave a damn.
    About Toriyama: Akira Toriyama himself wanted to like this movie, saying he was looking forward to working with Hollywood to produce such a film. He later stated he openly regretted the choice, openly mocking it and distancing himself from the movie like he has with GT... if not more than with GT.
    About the movie: It's bad. Very bad. Horribly horribly bad. Unless, that is, you watch the RiffTrax of it, done by the DBZAbridged crew of Team Four Star. I highly recommend it, as they do a very good job with the MST3K style humor, while dropping both references to the original show, and the occasional (but very rare) DBZA reference. So even if you don't like DBZA, don't worry, they're not just doing that with it. It is a legit riff of the movie, just done by fans of the original series. Again, I highly recommend it.
    And last... there's a mid-credits stinger. Teasing a sequel that (THANKFULLY) will never be made. I'm surprised Krim didn't mention it, but I can understand wanting to shut the movie off SO quickly once it's done. A lot of people say it should be a 0/5 as an adaptation, but it at least got some names right (if pronouncing them wrong... Chow Yun-fat's pronunciation of Kamehameha is especially hilarious), but yeah. Just... names ripped from a wiki page and slapped onto some direct to DVD Nickelodeon movie (that one's stolen from the Riff).
    And last: Gratz on 10K! If a little late. I'll be sure to thank Linkara for leading me here.

      Credit where it's due. The lighting is decent, the colors are nice and vibrant, if a little orange for my liking, the effects, while not extraordinary, weren't awful, and while there was little to no respect for it's source material, the film still had some neat production design. Given how many films don't even have that much, I think the film deserves at least a 1.5/5

    Let's see, butchering Goku's character because the whole point to him was that he was literally raised by wolves once Gohan died. So of course he doesn't know nor does he have ANY fucks to give about social pressure or niceties, so he would've beaten the living tar out of the wannabe bullies the second they broke his bike and then destroyed their car in order to get his bike out from underneath it.
    And THEN insensitively innocent matter-of-factly called them weak for folding so easily and not being able to take so much as a punch from him.
    He never once noticed Chichi as a love interest and the whole reason they got married in the first place is because CHICHI is the one who got a crush on HIM and asked to marry him, meanwhile, Goku, who was not raised in society since HE HIMSELF accidentally crushed Gohan to death when he transformed into an Osaru, assumed it was food and was all "yeah, ok, I'll have that when we meet again"
    Basically, that marriage came through a misunderstanding and not real romance. That was the joke.

  • @maxacorn

    as another mark against this crap, goku's interactions with chi-chi were all wrong.
    at the start when he first met bulma, goku had never seen a woman before and for a long time, he couldn't tell the difference between men and women. also, goku never went gaga over ANY woman.........EVER. even though he did eventually marry chi-chi, that's only due to him not understanding what marriage was when he agreed to marry her after they first met.
    but that's minor compared to all the wrong that fills this movie.

      @@WobblesandBean Okay so that is NOT what happens. The whole situation was a humorous misunderstanding that took people by surprise at the time. Chi-Chi asks Goku to marry her when they were older. Goku agrees thinking that marriage is a type of food and Chi-Chi takes him at his word. About 6 years later Chi-Chi is mad that Goku "stood her up" (I mean if the person that you liked promised to marry you and then left for 6 years with no form of contact, how would you feel about them). Upon realizing his mistake, Goku decides to follow through on his promise and marry Chi-Chi (I think that it is also really important to note that upon realizing the misunderstanding, Chi-Chi was willing to back off since there was no real relationship between the two of them). Now imagine, after reading the manga for several years and not seeing Chi-Chi at all during that time, seeing this random girl being mad at Goku and turning out to be Chi-Chi from the very first arc. I think that it is a very good example of Toriyama's ability as a writer and comedian.
      Basically, to say that this situation was 'manipulative and rapey' misses the point of the joke and characters and honestly, I think that this story could be written into the film with the proper fixes. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

    I never watched much of DBZ growing up, but I did read and watch the original Dragonball series from when Goku was a kid. While DBZ wasn't bad for what it was trying to do, I honestly always liked the comedic tone and pacing of Dragonball leagues better. Everything felt like it moved along at a much better clip, and the characters got a lot more slow moments to just bounce off of each other between big action set pieces.
    It wasn't my first anime, though. If we discount poke'mon (because really that was so omnipresent it barely counts as an introduction to anime) my first would've been Rurouni Kenshin.

    Speed Racer was better than this! At least that was actually faithful to the anime! Well, for the most part. I doubt a lot of Speed Racer fans appreciated it when they turned Speed from a fast-talking racer into a stoic young man out to prove himself to the world. Though, if anything I think the Wachowskis based their incarnation of Speed and X off how they were portrayed in the much darker Speed Racer X which is pretty much the incarnation I was introduced to. So it was still faithful to Speed Racer... just not the incarnation most people are used to (INW, the 60's version). But, my statement stands: STILL closer to its source material than this piece of crap.

    I'm really glad you did this movie! My brother was a fan of the anime when we were kids so I caught an episode here and there and would occasionally knock something over whenever he tried to mimic Goku' s Kamehameha to make him feel like less of an idiot. Even with my limited knowledge of the series, I think I could do better than this on my phone with Halloween costumes! This movie deserves all the hate it gets and then some and I just want to burn it and binge the anime with my brother!
    Btw, can't wait until you do Sea of Monsters. It disappointed fans, such as myself, everywhere.

    • @genevievegreso2127

      You should check out the unlicensed Korean film. They literally use Halloween costumes! That's actually where I got that weird as all hell Roshi clip. No subtitles exist for this film, but if you're familiar with the anime, that shouldn't be a problem. They're slavishly devoted to those first several episodes of the series. Just google Dragon Ball 1990, you'll find it.

  • @EveryThingGirl238
    @EveryThingGirl238 Před 5 lety +2

    My first anime was Ghost Hunt, nightmares for days after the BloodStained Labyrinth EPs
    But id' have to say the first anime that got me watching more was Soul Eater, and it's still my favorite anime to this day, and I started watching them when i was 13 and now I'm 21.
    After that, I flitted between older ones.
    Cased Closed was a good one
    Wolf's Rain I thought was very emotional
    DN Angel got so feels from me and laughs as a dark comedy for tweens
    But my second biggest love came when my highschool friend named dropped to me Hetalia. (Rough translation to Stupid Italia.) IDK why the idea of stereotyped countries as human representations appealed to me, but I put me back in my love for history.
    After that, I have been watching some of the older Animes. When I first watched Dragonball Evolution it was at my cousin Mika's house, I was possibly 15 and had never watched Dragonball, I really don't know why, but the anime never really appealed to me. I found it too tedious to watch and the characters just annoyed me. Just my personal opinion. (Though I have been in the process of watching Inuyasha and love it alot.)
    So, overall I didn't hate the movie as much as a fan would, hell, when i watched it, my cousin didn't tell me what the name of it was. And I had no idea it was based off an anime, I just thought it was some lame fantasy bullshit with annoying attempts to be 'deep' and 'meaninful'. It wasn't until she dropped the name of the movie that I rose and eyebrow wondering 'How the hell does this look anything like Dragonball?' Though I never watched it, anyone knows the style and characterization of it. And this looked nothing like the anime.
    But that was my personal opinion, had it not been trying to be the anime series, I would have given it a 2.1 out of 5
    But given what it was trying to be it turned to a 1 out of 5.
    That's coming from a person who already didn't like Dragonball from the start, that movie was that bad.

    Minor nitpickery: In the original series, Shenron was originally only able to bring back one person at a time. It wasn't until around the time that Dende was made the guardian of earth did they rework Shenron's powers to bring back multiple people at once (also to bring people back more than once, but that distinction is really not relevant to this movie)

    • @keithhannah3911
      @keithhannah3911 Před 4 lety +1

      No, it was the Namek Dragon that could only do one at a time, but he could do the same person more than once. The Earth Dragon could do multiple people, but only one time.
      Dende gave the Earth Dragon 3 wishes.

At the time my dad and i were in the city, and we went to the cinema without a clue what movies they were showing. And because i really liked Dragonball as a kid, i suggested `let's check it out.' When we came out we were laughing `that was soo terrible!'
    I'm still glad we went though. I thought it was hillarious :)

      That's because the first batch of footage he was acting against was barely usable and I asked him to reshoot it. He made the decision to wear a fedora in the reshoots for some reason. I could have done some clever masking with the lamp and then manipulated the footage over the computer monitor, but this was very early into my editing work when I was basically making it all up as I went along. I honestly doubt it would have looked any better if I'd tried it back then.

    For me, it's the classic Pokemon, Digimon, and Yu-Gi-Oh before I realize the evils of 4Kids. And bad editing. Until I learned Funimation, Aniplex, and many more! :D Anyway, live action adaptations of anime and/or manga are around 50% on the success rate, mostly when it comes with story or how well it was adapted. But considering what we have so far, like Ghost in the Shell and the upcoming Fullmetal Alchemist, maybe we can get from terrible to somewhat decent. It's a shot in the dark but...nothing ventured, nothing gained right?
    Anyway, Percy Jackson: Sea of Monsters? Bring it.

      Yes. She was a great fighter. When they were kids (around 9) she proposed and Goku said yes then disappeared for years. When he returned they were adults (or late teens) and Chi Chi was pisses. They met a the contest of champions and he didn't recognise her. After beating her in a fight she told him who she was and asked why he left to which he replied 'I thought marriage was a food.' He then said he loved her and, after winning the championship, got married.
      Oh and something about Piccolo avenging his father King Piccolo was in there.
