Why the Hate for this Movie?

I'd gladly take Tarzan over stupid high school nonsense.

Goku grew up in the wild, with only his Grandfather teaching him. That's how it should've been in the movie. But it seems you're liking the Hollywood change intended for the crowd of like minded people like you.
 
Id rather him not go to school, but i wont cry over the fact he will, not only if its meant to be a few minutes.
 
It's bad even if it only lasts a minute. He's educated and he's the loser geek at school. That's not Goku.

That's like watching Peter Parker, actually not starting out at High School, but being a super billionaire like Bruce Wayne. You're changing who they are.

And I don't want to watch a Goku who feels he doesn't fit in and tries to score with the most popular girl at school.
 
Well supposedly from the Insider he isnt a geek and hes not afraid to show off his powers and hes oblivious to the fact Chi Chi likes him.
 
Yes it is actually, i thought it was gonna be a Peter Parker type of thing where Goku secretly had a crush Chi Chi. Guess its the other way around.

i totally agree. they shouldnt have changed the origins of goku. it made him who he is. he has a great appreciation for nature and that's part of why he protects the earth
 
I hope people understand why some of us hate the change. I bet everyone would be in an uproar if Superman wouldn't be growing up in Kansas in the new reboot.
 
Well, I think you guys are assuming a change that probably isn't there. Especially if the insider is correct.

Goku goes to school, but at least he is not a nerd and is oblivious to Chi Chi liking him. Sounds like Goku to me.
 
Seems to much like a martial artist version of tarzan

It seems faithful, but they decided to go in the half assed direction. Let's make Goku a geek. Let's make Chi Chi a "IT" girl. It sounds just like Spider-Man.
 
I seriously hope the Dragon Ball card game thing is not incorporated in the film. Oh god.
 
I dont think it is actually.

The 2 friends he played it with are absent, and the other friend Weaver only shot scenes at the school.
 
does anyone have a missile launcher or smth?...maybe ryojin has one..
 
So now the trailers out how will if affect the movie, in a good or bad way?

It hasn't changed my opinion one bit. They style of action is more or less what I was expecting and it looks pretty ordinary to me. There's nothing in it I haven't seen before.

This is a teenage high school film and they called it Dragonball.
 
yet...it's still in it.






after seeing the trailer, even though i thought it looked okay, it made me even more depressed that we're not getting a bigger, beefier movie. i wanted to jump out of my seat and cry tears of joy if i ever saw a teaser for a live action Dragon Ball flick. however, i'm left with a feeling of utter "meh"...

Sequel... Sequel... Sequel....
 
that's the thing though...i don't think ANY movie should be made with the mindset of turning it into a series of movies unless it were thoroughly planned out that way from the beginning (LotR). even if this movie gets a sequel, many of the problems that plague this production will be transferred to the sequel.
