I don't know if any of you guys have heard this news but 20th Century Fix has obtained the rights to do a live action adaption of Dragon Ball, not Dragon Ball Z. I just wonder if they can rly do this series good in live action.

If I be not mistaken, Piccolo is played by James Marsters and Goku is "that guy" from a bunch of teen movies.
This has "Direct To DVD" written all over it, but it COULD be camp genius the likes of which has not been seen since 1980's "Flash Gordon." The cast list from imdb.com: Justin Chatwin ... Goku other cast: James Marsters ... Lord Piccolo Emmy Rossum ... Bulma Jamie Chung ... Chi Chi Yun-Fat Chow ... Master Roshi Randall Duk Kim ... Grandpa Gohan Joon Park ... Yamcha Ernie Hudson ... Master Mutaito Eriko Tamura ... Mai Texas Battle ... Carey Fuller Shavon Kirksey ... Emi Luis Arrieta ... Weaver Richard Blake ... Agundas Julian Sedgwick ... Mr. Kingery |

I'm going to have to say this film will be flop-tastic. Not many people will even be interested in it unless they are a fan. I've asked a few of my friends that have never heard of the show and said from what they've seen from the movie pics it looks like crap. I personally don't think it will be that bad. I have a certain level of understanding when it comes to making a cartoon show into a movie. It's difficult cause things in a live action look. When they do transfer these type cartoons into movies or live people it tends to look ridiculous. So I have to give the film makers some credit for having the balls to make a film such as this. I think the Cowboy Bebop movie that's going to be made will look a lot better due to the more realistic feel of the show, even if it is future based it still has a strong realistic sci-fi feel. You can see more pictures of dragon ball and a few other movies. Live Action Anime I'm looking forward to seeing the death note movie, even if I'm not the biggest fan of the show. I can't wait for the metal gear movie to be released, even if it's not anime or dragon ball related, It's one of the greatest story lines ever(my opinion). As far as the Dragon Ball movie goes, I'll give it a chance but I don't have too hi hopes for this movie.
