This week I had the distinct displeasure of watching the Dragonball Evolution movie. We give a full, painful review of it as well as talking about the news and reviewing Kemono no Souja Erin. This is definitely one to listen to.
Kemono no Souja Erin – Wait until it hits the US and NetFlix it.
Dragonball Evolution – Even if you receive it as a present. Burn the disc and piss on the ashes.

You both seemed distracted during this show, almost as if you were both trying to look at porn while the other was talking.
Yeah, I doubt that there was a language different between the Japanese and English dub for DB:E. It sounds like the script is the source of the problem for this movie. Probably someone talked to few people about Dragonball and wrote their script based on that. And most of those people they talked to either hated it or never watched it and was just trying to summarize it from what other people have said about the movie.
Its probably “really” popular right now because its Dragonball and people want to see how bad it really is. Maybe a few “Omg this will be the best movie evar!” people, but mostly people going in “This is going to be the raping of a franchise”. Cause people love watching a train wreck. Can’t wait to listen to DBE agro later this year.
I think everyone knew the movie was gonna suck. This shows Hollywood needs to stop being stupid and get the creator’s guidance on how to do the movie. It really is not going to help the Anime industry if Hollywood keeps bastardizing these franchises. It kinda makes me not want any more series to be made live action in fear of this happening again.
Was it really that bad? Worse than the Transporter 2? Worse than CATWOMAN?? How about this: Better or worse than Alien Vs Predator: Requiem?
This show had me rolling with laughter so a big thank you to you guys 🙂
And I’m actually more interested in forcing my younger sister into seeing the movie with me, now that you’ve reviewed it xD
When i first saw them advertise it… i just about threw the remote at the tv… since then iv looked at the trailers… and… ouch… sum1 needs to smack the script writer upside the head the a five iron for butchering one of the shows i grew up on. … lets just hope… that they dont do this to Tenchi Muyo…
good show!
I’m just wondering…. was dragon ball evolution worse than Norbit?
and I should mention, when I saw the preview on Nickolodian(!!!) at four in the morning a couple weeks ago…. I had no clue what it was until they said it….
If someone broke into my house, I hit the on the head with my nunchuku, pin them to the wall with sai, and hit with a shinai till the cops show up. ;}
I’m afraid to watch DBE. I’d rather watch anything else…
