Is it just me or is the tide of opinion turning on this movie?

i think what you dont understand is that there are some people who are inteligent enough to understand that changes are important to make a DB movie. but they just dont like teh changes from FOX.
some changes are cliche and are just wrong for a DB movie. just because somethign worked in a spiderman movie in 2002 that doesnt mean that it will automatic in DB.
 
Thats why I like the changes that were made in order for it to look good in live action. I know if they translated everything EXACTLY from the anime to live action, it would look BAD.

This is what most haters dont understand, they want an exact copy of the anime in this movie and thats impossible, it would look ridiculous.

I find it funny how just because a person might not share the same views as you, you automatically label them as a "hater"
 
In the comics and anime, Goku doesn't look like some fresh faced yuppie *****ebag I want to sock.

Of all the changes, this is the one that bothers me. I really dislike this version of Goku. Even in the trailer he annoys me, I don't want to put up with him for a whole film. This is more than Piccolo being the wrong colour or Bulma having the wrong hair. They have seriously messed up the main character. He's going to be an anchor to this film, like Shia LaBeouf was in Transformers.

That said, there are other major issues as well, and not just related to changes that were made from the source material.

Shia an anchor in TF!??!? How is that? He may not have been exactly like Spike in the cartoon, but I think he served his purpose. Chatwin on the other hand isn't my first choice for Goku, but that doesnt mean he's gonna bring the film down any, hell this thing was on the highway to hell a long time ago. I'm willing to give him a chance.

All I know is that I nearly fell asleep in the first hour waiting for the giant robots to show up. I went to see Transformers, not some high school kid with girl problems.

The last half is decent, but the film would have been a lot better without that character. Nothing against LaBeouf either. I don't mind him elsewhere and am one of the few that liked him in Indiana Jones. But he did not work in Transformers at all.

I think he worked in TF because not only was he the robots connection to humans, but he also served as comic relief from time to time. I thought the movie kept a pretty good pace, and once the Autobots arrived, the real action began. But enough about TF, Chatwin will be cool

who would have been your choice? just curious.
 
I am hoping... no wishing this movie sucks
I hope it is so bad that Tom Rothman is kicked out of office....
I want this movie to be the DISASTER MOVIE of 2009... a pure joke....
This makes Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen look like Dark Knight...
In fact... I can guarantee that TF2 will be a pure entertainer with an actual story....
I also hope this movies' failure gives the GI: JOE movie a much needed face lift...

I would actually prefer it if DBE were a pleasant surprise. If this movie fails I doubt we'll see DB on the big screen again for a long time.
 
eventually fans will make their own movie and it'll rock..there's already a dude working on a db project but he only posted here once and that was like 2 months ago....i wish he'd ''visit'' us more often...
