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

despite many critics being overly critical, there are a few critics and sites that are fairly dependable. at any rate, i find it ironic that you make fun of him for listening to other people's opinions, then you give him yours (to go see it) as if he should listen to you as well.

I said see it for himself and judge. See any movie for yourself and judge it yourself not just DB.

I'm not a fan, so I'm coming at this from an unbiased standpoint. It looks crap.
 
All I know is I dont let other people judge movies for me. I dont need a critic to tell me if a movie is bad or not..If I see a movie trailer or poster and it looks good or ok to me then i`ll check it out myself and judge myself if its a good movie or not.

Great post:whatever:
 
Its kind of ironic that the trailer for this movie is getting positive reactions in movie theaters, yet the so called "true fans" and "movie critics" are the ones being negative.

They have every right to be negative because the movie looks mediocre at best.
Take a look at this example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0AOqS7QGYo


Its from Brazil, some guy video taped the trailer and said people in the theater loved it, except for 1 person, but the rest loved it. The same thing is happening in many countries. Even here in Venezuela, I showed the trailer to my gf and many other people who dont care about Dragonball, and they liked it and are interested in watching the movie.

That's nice. What's your point? I showed the trailer to many people and they laughed at it. The same thing didn't happen in "many countries" because you weren't there for one. Unless you can provide a link that says otherwise, don't make **** up please.

Whats wrong with you guys? Why do you still hate it? Just because Goku isnt asian or Bulma´s hair isnt completely blue? What has happened? Just enjoy the movie like a normal person would, stop being so negative.

Do you seriously need to ask this? You already know the answer.

it sounded like one person was talking throughout the video. i didn't hear any hollering in excitement or anything. it just sounded like someone talking consistently throughout the video....almost as if he weren't paying attention to the trailer.

The same thing is happening in many countries.
how do you know that? do you travel to these countries just to see what the fan reactions are?

Even here in Venezuela, I showed the trailer to my gf and many other people who dont care about Dragonball, and they liked it and are interested in watching the movie.
i showed the trailer to my family, my friends, and my co-workers.....none of them said that it would bring them to the theaters. only a few said they'd rent it....and guess what, they were disappointed DB fans.

it's been my experience that normal people don't want to see this movie.
 
How I know its happening in many countries? because its all over the internet. Im not going to post links. You can check by yourselves in many sites from around the world. People keep saying the same thing, about people having positive reactions to the trailer of this movie in the theaters.

Stylishhokie and dorkyfresh I dont buy any of what you guys are saying. You guys are like this VEGETADXT or whatever his nick is, who spends all his time bashing this movie for no reason. Which means you have no credibility at all. All you guys do is bash the movie. Hell, if this movie ends up being good and successful you would still bash it. Its actually sad for you guys, ill go and enjoy this movie. I feel sorry for you both.

That's bull. I'm not going to check because it's a waste of time. You're not going to post links because they're non-existent. You're making stuff up. Unless you can point me to at least 3 links that show these positive reactions, I might start taking you seriously.

I don't really care to be honest. No one is forcing you to read our posts. There's an ignore feature for a reason. Why do we have no credibility? We don't always bash the movie either. That's a ridiculous claim. Just because we don't like the direction this movie is going in, we automatically have no credibility? Brilliant logic.

I dunno if you hate this movie or love it :huh:
 
It seems the optimists have only friends who like the trailer and haters have friends that spit on it. :oldrazz: I got pretty much optimism except from one guy.

but its you who is saying that there are sites with positive feedback. wouldnt it make sense that you post a link to them?
it must tak you like 30 seconds to find the link and post them here.

thank you .
 
I wasn't sold on the trailer, still won't stop me from seeing it in theaters for the final judgement.

Yes you can. Check your Internet history and post the links to the websites you visited. :woot:
 
JP´s and Jappo´s forums, their blogs, youtube, this forum, and many more in spanish you wouldnt understand anyway. I visit like many sites per day (I use the internet a lot), im not going to bother, and I dont care what 3 or 4 haters think lol.

Trailer is getting positive reactions, im really happy about it. This movie is going to be a hit, a new era in DB and DBZ history has begun. :D
 
Stylishhokie and dorkyfresh I dont buy any of what you guys are saying.
feelings are very much mutual.

You guys are like this VEGETADXT or whatever his nick is, who spends all his time bashing this movie for no reason.
this is why i made the comment about you not having a full grasp on the English language, because most people who read most of either me or Hokie's posts can see that we back our arguments up with reasons.

Which means you have no credibility at all.
says the guy who posted a video of some guys talking to each other in a theater, most likely not even paying attention to the DB:E trailer.

Hell, if this movie ends up being good and successful you would still bash it.
if the movie turns out to be 'good' then i'll acknowledge that it is. if the movie turns out to be successful then i'll congratulate everyone. you can quote me on that........however, these chances are not likely. regardless, you're argument that all we do is bash the movie is simply wrong since both Hokie and i have occasionally praise certain aspects of the film.

Its actually sad for you guys, ill go and enjoy this movie. I feel sorry for you both.
in a way you should, because we're being given a movie that doesn't reach our standards. in another way you shouldn't feel bad for us, because we have higher standards. we don't just unquestionable like everything that's thrown our way like mindless sheep.
 
we don't just unquestionable like everything that's thrown our way like mindless sheep.

There are things I dont like either. Like for example, Krillin not being in the film. Or the fact that there is no Red Ribbon Army. So im not a mindless sheep who likes everything. Hell when I saw the first picture of Piccolo many months ago I hated it, you know the one that was shown in the expo footage. But then I realized that was unfinished.

My point is, enjoy the movie, stop asking for too much with just Dragonball. Now when DBZ comes, you should demand a higher quality movie, effects wise, storywise, fighting wise, etc. There ill have higher standards because in DBZ is where the story gets more deep, intense, interesting and epic. This first movie is a way to introduce what Dragonball is all about. The sequels is where the real stuff begins. Im not saying I have low standards for this movie, because still this movie looks good, but im not demanding TOO MUCH like I would with a DBZ movie with Vegeta, the Saiyans, etc.

In conclusion, this movie looks good and will be a hit.

Most people I talk to about this movie like what they see. I have had a friend or 2 say it doesnt look much like dragonball.
 
okay JoseMP, i'll take your advice....next time one of my favorite comics, anime, or video games is made into a movie i'll just expect a rushed, half-assed, watered down product that has a good possibility of not warranting a sequel.

we'll see in a few months.

lol that wasnt my advice. Dragonball might have been rushed a little bit, but thats not the point. The movie looks good and interesting. Piccolo character according to the script is really awesome. I think James Masters is going to make a great performance in this one.

This is the beginning and the introduction, you are expecting a DBZ-type of movie and this isnt DBZ, this is Dragonball. Thats the problem with most people in the USA, they only knew DBZ, so they are expecting Super Saiyans and Vegeta and Frieza and Cell already, they are expecting DBZ fights in mid air, super speed, etc. That didnt happen on DB, and this movie is based on DB.

Enjoy the movie.
