Google Chrome Favourite Manga Naruto, One Piece, Hajime no Ippo, Bakuman, FMA Brotherhood	A team known as Robot Underdog have announced a new project of theirs in which they will attempt to make their own approach to live action Dragon Ball Z. It is currently uncertain on what plans they exactly have, but they did release two photos showing off a live action version of Adult Gohan and Goku. Picture 1; BIG PICTURE Spoiler: click to toggle Picture 2; BIG PICTURE Spoiler: click to toggle New photos will continue to release until they announce this live action DBZ project. What do you guys think? I don't really mind there making another live action DBZ project, just by looking at the pictures I can tell it's going to be better then Evolution, but at the same time, you can't take an anime, and turn it into a live action, it just doesn't work that way

And so that hole won't be filled either, if you just run away without doing anything people won't do anything for you either.. As long as you don't give up, you can still be saved

Nothin Favourite Manga Nothin	I've always wondered why didn't Evolution cast an Asian guy as the lead, considering how 80% of its cast filled with Asian actors/actresses. Its amazing how fanmade works are much superior than dog** that Hollywood's "Big-budget" craps. I agree with ya Nicole. U just can't take an anime & butcher it for the sake of making more money.

Not 100% sure

Videogame movies also are pretty much a disappointment for me. Meh. Not really excited about this.

Those are just trailers though, if this group can actually recreate a movie on a limited "fan" budget, (K&K's was funded and huge bit still not enough) ill be surprised.

It might be a japanese manga, but it isn't exclusively asian culture in it. As for the pictures from this "Robot Underdog" production, it looks pretty neat.

It just tried to cram over 100 episodes into 1 ninety minute space, with no background continuty, and make it accessible for a general audience. Quite difficult really.

Internet Explorer Favourite Manga Dragon Ball Z	Yeah, I don't think DB/Z/GT should ever be Live Action...ever! It's just way too complicated to get most of it right, and most of it would have to be CG anyway, so they mine as well make the whole thing CG. Also, an actor is never going to look 100% like anyone from the Series, they might look close, but I don't think it'll be close enough to make it work.

But you change one thing about that picture of goku and everyone realizes that something is off. This is the problem. No matter HOW hard they try to make a character look like Goku, or Gohan..or Krillin..it's going to fail, because we already know what he looks like. Visual is all we've had. It's not like a book.

Chrome, Safari, IE Favourite Manga Rave Master, FLCL, .hack//legendofthetwilight, Naruto II	Agreed. Superman, Batman, Spidey, Wolverine and a few others are easier to work with since it's so integrated into American culture (And because the Marvel and DC continuities are really f*cked up as is.) Moving on, the story is really linear too and much longer than your average super villain arc in an american comic, so it wouldn't work too well. Unless it was a saga by saga abridgment.

DBZ movies would be saga to saga.

Posts: 908 Group: Member Member #9,238 Joined: March 22, 2013 Gender Not Specified	Whilst I would love to see a Live action DBZ movie, I'm not entirely sure its possible. Just think about it, even if you bring a run time of 3 hours (which is long for a movie really) you've still got to chop/change stuff to fit in that time. I've tried my hand at writing a screenplay for a DBZ movie,( sadly it'll never see the light of day, but for those interested it was based on the saiyan saga), and just trying to convey what happened in the anime, and make that into one singular movie was difficult to say the least. I personally found to make it worth while, you'd have to have things set up or at least mentioned to set things up 2-3 movies down the line, which all things considering is hoping for the best. Whilst i fully support any attempt to do this, I don't think its possible to anything near a exactly direct saga to movie style film. it'd need to be changed a whole lot , just to make it understandable to the wider audience. This , (from the pictures at least), looks better than the last fan effort.
