What sweet irony. DBE took in BARELY over 5 million on it's opening weekend (a.k.a. a colossal flop), it got destroyed by Hannah Montana (worst thing in existance, but that's another issue). Also, reviews are terrible and is suffering a 17% at Rotten Tomatoes. I SMELL RAZZIES!
Unfortunately, that didn't stop Fox from greenlighting the sequel (DAMN YOU!)
Let us all mock DB:E's total ineptetude.
Eh. Frankly, I'm not at all surprised that it sucked, and I can't imagine why anyone else would be either. And yet, the sequel is in production. Something is severely wrong here.

It's called Hollywood can't come up with poop on their own, so they'll green light anything as long as they don't have to try. One of the MANY things about movies/tv I hate and one of the many things I'm going to change whenever I get my chance to make my own stuff :robotangry: :robotangry: :robotangry: :robotangry: :robotangry:
It's not irony, we expected this to happen.
It's ironic that everyone thought it would suck, and it did? Huh.
Anyway, they're probably making a sequel because they didn't think that it would suck, so as usual, started making the sequel before the original got released, so it's less likely for one of the characters to die in reality and screw up the process.
Not irony at all.
Just down right pathetic.
I went and watched the movie.
God was it awful.

Did you watch it online for free, or did you vagina-y out and actually gave 20th Century Fox some money they don't deserve? X_X;;
I read the IGN review, and I can't believe they liked it.
Not only is it a bad movie, but it was a victim of bad timing. Going up against Hanna Montana, how could Fox expect it to succeed? This is just one of those movies that flops horribly in both the box office and in reviews but is funded by a company so rich that they will try again with the exact same formula, receive the same results and then make the last movie in the trilogy DVD-only.
I'm not watching it. There is no amount of physical or psychological torture me that would make me sit through that movie.
Also, it's not irony that it's bad.
Fox merely decided to taint the name Dragonball with this movie.
Actually, once I think about it, it wasn't that bad a movie. If it wasn't called "Dragonball: Blah", then you guys might agree. For Dragonball, yes it sucked, but for a movie, not really, wasn't bad, wasn't good.

This.
My big problem with the movie was that
[spoiler]Goku was a Namekian. :| What. The. Popersnickles.[/spoiler]
Also the horrible parts were kinda funny if you watched the show(which is everyone).
Yamacha's acter was the worst acter of the century.
No Krillin.
Also I heard them say Trunks when they were at the school and his bike was run over. I know I did.
Overall, Gayly funny.
I barely ever watched the Dragonball series, so I have a question: Who was that blond dude that made that big hole? A picture of the anime version would be appreciated.

He's supposed to be Yamcha

Yamcha got the worst of it. Dude looks NOTHING like him, didn't get anything in the story, and got his character destroyed.

O_o. The dude in the movie is blonde (and non super form), and shortish hair, what the intercourse did they do to that guy?
It's called not knowing the source material.
Again, everyone involved (minus Chatwin because he at least has a decent amount of talent, just needs to find the correct role) should never be allowed to work in movies ever again. I could make a better dragonball movie with the studio equiptment at my college. Just another one of the MANY reasons I hate Hollywood post Toy Story...

I haven't even watched the movie yet. I only watched the trailers.
"The seven mystics created the dragon balls". That one quote from the trailer got me confused and a little upset.
Did the movie still said that?
Also was Goku in high school?
My friend said that it is awseome but he haven't watched the movie either.

1. Yes there were mystics
2. yes Goku is in high school
3. and your friend is an idiot and obviously hasn't seen any good movies in the last ten years X_X:;

WTF?! The namekians (such as Kami) created the dragon balls right?
Then this movie really does fail. Why Goku even in high school though?
My friend and I were arguing about this movie too. Looks like I was right about this movie. My friend is still going to see it. Oh well more money for FOX then, huh?

The namekians made the dragonballs, yes. Kami made the earth dragonballs when he arrived as a child.
Why is goku in high school? Because Fox thought it would be "better" (a.k.a. more marketable, FAIL) if Goku had a poopty cliche'd terrible high school romance story with bullies. FYI FOX, GOKU IS NOT PETER PARKER!
Again, you're friend is a complete idiot.

That may be the only thing you've ever said that made sense and wasn't extremely annoying. If only Fox could read and understand that.
Also, I never read the Spiderman comics, but my Spidermanaholic cousin said that Peter Parker wasn't a nerdy loser in the comics, he was a regular guy who played sports and such. Just a random fact I felt like pointing out.

-- Hopefully Fox gets the hint and realizes that they should never pull this kind of crap ever again.

Fox just likes pissing off anime fans for no reason apparently. IGN likes whatever their corporate sponsors tell them to like, and will do anything to piss off the average gamer/moviegoer/tvwatcher/etc. There is a reason everyone hates them remember? X_X:;
IGN= Owned by Newscorp.
Newscorp= Fox.
IGN= Fox.
