DragonBall: The Live Action Movie

mystyc writes "scifi wire has a disturbing piece on how Twentieth Century Fox acguired the movie rights to the Dragon Ball franchise. What is disturbing is that they plan to do a live action dragon ball movie! You'd think hollywood would have learned their lessons from such notable live action anime failures as The Guyver, Fist of the North Star, and others who's names must not be spoken. Then again, hollywood doesn't work that way."

A movie is barely long enough for one DBZ fight!!!

  Well, the first movie is the characters powering up. The fight doesn't come until the second movie.

There are only a couple problems with this.

Anime girls are far better ^_^

Panty shots are just not the same with actors.

Ever notice how real tits don't 'bounce' right after you have spent most of your life watching anime?

How are they going to deal with tentacle monsters?

I'm positive my boyfriend will make me sit through this one. And I already have trouble watching an episode without making cynical comments every 30 seconds on the probability of the story.
