Just saw this on IGNand thought it was quite good.

Link tovideo.

I'm not the biggest DB fan but I would love to see a full DB live action film like that.

That trailer was a joke.

If you mean it's a joke as in not for a real film then yes I know, that's why I stated it as being a Fan Made Trailer in the title.

It still pisses all over DB Evolution though.

I think that we have to accept the fact that there are things animation can get away with that live action cannot.

I would watch that, pretty good for being fan made

Nice try though.

commendable effort.

DBZ is far too farcicle to translate to live action.

Way better then evolution

Definitely a well done effort with what limited resources I am sure they had available to them.

This does illustrate the fundamental flaws of why a live-action DBZ movie can't work though.

You can never get actors to look even close to alot of the characters on the show, and the special effects are liable to look incredibly corny when they get to throwing out their energy attacks.

I do think this team was onto something though with how they shot it. though.

looks absolutely horrible.campzor

That was terrible just stay with animation.

I liked Db Evolution better. This just doesnt look right.

The Piccolo made me laugh, mostly because I've seen much better make-up work.

Still, it was a fun watch.

It is better than Evolution, but as many people have said, there are some series that can't work as Live Action films or TV Shows. Take The Last Airbender for example, no one can really take that seriously. Miroku32

The Last Airbender can work, the project was just given to a hack,

DBZ is a series that just doesn't translate well to live-action. Stick with the anime/manga.

That was terrible in every way possible.

I thought it was a good fan vid. But DBZ will never be good live.bobaban

It can be, it just needs a good writer, director, and a budget comparable to Avatar

Sadly the later keeps the studios at bay, which keeps the formers away as well.

I still think that DBZ being a live action movie is a stupid idea.

well that was cringe-worthy.

This trailer made me cringe so hard that i lost my teeth and broke my jaw.

I don't know how live action actors can act the way characters in DBZ act without looking laughably ridiculous.

By adapting the characters & story, and not simply going for a copy and paste.

Anything can be made into a good movie, just sometimes you have to rip out its guts.

For instance, they could take a comedic route akin to Scott Pilgrim

or in contrast a grimdark route where the fights are takien seriously(no mid battle chats or 5 min power ups)
