Yeah, I'm thinking that one's gonna suck...
Heh, this makes me laugh a bit.
It's reassuring to know that no matter how ridiculous a superhero comic movie can look, live action manga continues to look sillier.
Admittedly, I'm not being fair. There are quite a few manga I can think of that would make perfectly good (or at least entertaining) movies. But Dragonball?!
I suppose on the plus side, they won't be able to indulge in the multi-episode long fight scenes Dragonball Z used to favor.
Still. Compressed Dragonball...it feels like a sign of the apocalypse.
...at least the guy playing Goku's kind of cute.

. . . I'm actually seriously shocked that it's taken them this long. Usually Japan's even more addicted to inappropriate spin-offs than the US is.

True that, according to wikipedia, the franchise is a year younger than *I* am. Egads
Maybe they were waiting for CGI to catch up?
