AS well as presenting the good movies I also review bad movies too. Or at least movies that didn’t do well at the box office. this is a review from on eof my other series. The title is: Was it really that bad? For this edition we’ll be looking at the horror that is Dragonball: Evolution.
Was it really that bad – Dragonball: Evolution.
I think the main problem with trying to adapt anime/manga into live action is that even with a really grounded anime like ‘Violet Evergarden’ they quite often use fantasy in it. In some cases the fantasy can be very ott so it can be very difficult to adapt.
Hello DragonLady, it’s good to see you again.
Adapting anime/manga movies can be rather hard.
I think that’s what the problem was with ‘Cowboy Bebop’ and not just with the woke bs that they tried to put in either. It would end up being WAY to expensive. The dog was cute though lol.
I wanted to add my two cents into this topic because I can honestly say here that I do own this movie and at the same time,I have also watched it more than once. Certainly this adaptation from cartoon to live action didn’t exactly go over to well when this film was made and the reason I say this is because it’s not always easy with trying to make adaptations that go from cartoon animation to live actions, even though there have have been several that have been done, like Lord of the Rings & The Hobbit, which I can say were good. But,as for Dragonball-Evolution, I honestly think that there could of been some improvements made that could of made the film even better, especially since it should indeed show tribute & honor to the maker of the cartoon Dragonball
