RSS Report post Posted June 6, 2014 While Dragonball Evolution certainly isn't the worst movie your heroic hosts have ever reviewed, it is probably the laziest adaptation of a source material ever seen to this point. Join them as they tell the tale of a spiky-haired kid and a Jim Carrey cosplayer embarking on the world's fastest Easter Egg hunt. This is the part when we note that this podcast is longer than the movie.

Delete Report post Posted June 6, 2014 There has been a weird amount of stuff on this movie lately. Cinema Sins on this showed up on Youtube yesterday. There was an honest trailer on it a few weeks back. Now this here. Is there a reason I am missing for all this interest in this movie all of a sudden?

Donomark Report post Posted June 6, 2014 DBZ has regained a bit of its popularity since around the Goku and his Friends Return special in 2009. Since then there's been DB Kai, Episode of Bardock, Battle of GODS, Toriyama showing Goku's mother and Bulma's sister in Jaco the Galactic Patrolman, and DBZ Abridged. It's been a fairly active series after over a decade of dormancy. I've yet to see this movie in full, and am probably going to wait until we come to it for my DBZ podcast. From what I've seen though, "lazy adaptation" certainly covers it. Goku in high school, WTH? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
D.W. Report post Posted June 6, 2014 There has been a weird amount of stuff on this movie lately. Cinema Sins on this showed up on Youtube yesterday. There was an honest trailer on it a few weeks back. Now this here. Is there a reason I am missing for all this interest in this movie all of a sudden? I noticed the same thing. Pure happenstance. We originally had this one scheduled for the November slot, but moved it up when Waterworld was canned. The Cinema Sins went up literally as I finished editing and I watched it wondering if we missed anything. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James D. Report post Posted June 6, 2014 I'm pretty sure the Honest Trailer has been up for quite a while. I'm almost positive that I watched that many months ago. EDIT: Upon checking, it was December, so yep. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S-T Report post Posted June 8, 2014 Ugh. I saw this pop up on Netflix a while back, and thought, "No way. Not watching that." But, again, a great episode. Your pain brings us so much entertainment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rjoyadet Report post Posted November 15, 2014 Ah, the Roshi-on-Yoshi, a fine selection, sir. Does that mean Roshi-on-Yoshi is a food of the tiradesverse? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rjoyadet Report post Posted February 27, 2015 I like to think that one of the execs at fox who greenlighted DBE. are seeing this video with a feeling of shame. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=opji5DgE_nQ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dc20willsave Report post Posted February 27, 2015 Oh, that's adorable. You think the executives at Fox care about a fan movie when, you know, they pocketed 50 mil from the US Distribution of Battle of the Gods last year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
