Live Action DBZ?
So should I celebrate or find a corner to cry in? There's no doubt that a live-action DBZ movie is LONG overdue, but I can't help having doubts.

Don't get me wrong, I LOVE DBZ. I consider it my favorite anime of all time. However, I understand that not everything anime-related is golden (for example, the number of good anime games is depressingly slim.) The fact that it took so long for the movie to come out might actually work in its favor, though. Special effects have evolved amazingly over the years, and I think we finally have the technology to produce beautiful DBZ fighting effects. Mid-90's effects would not have produced a good-looking kamehameha!

Another concern is that eastern-based movies tend to suffer over here (I'm looking at you Dragon Wars) simply because the audiences and storytelling are so different.

All of my worries aside, I think all the right tools are in place for a good movie, and I'm looking forward to it! But WHY is piccolo the main villian?! That means no Vegeta, Super Saiyan, etc.

Well that's all from me for now, I'd love to hear what you all think!
