gokuandball high 276x300 Lack of Dragonball Evolution Movie Sequel News

Stay tuned to DB Legends as a sequel may in fact happen after all.

We all know James Wong said a sequel may not happen if the Dragonball film bombs domestically. And we also all heard James Marsters saying a sequel has been green lit on several occasions. But since early 2009, we have yet to hear any official confirmations on whether or not a Dragonball sequel (Dragonball Reborn) will indeed occur. Since then it has been nothing but speculation and rumors. I expected to hear something from 20th Century FOX on the one year anniversary of the movie, even it was just a statement saying the planned Dragonball movie trilogy is no more. Maybe it is just one of those cases where they want to forget it ever happened and move on, with some hope another studio will pick it back up later and reboot it.

So, consider the Dragonball sequel trashed and just get back to watching the anime (Dragon Ball Z Kai). If we do hear anything, we will try and report it, but I would not get my hopes up. Asides from all that, discuss in the comments on whether you would like to see a sequel, a reboot or that Hollywood should just leave the Dragon Ball franchise alone.

    IMDB is a lie. DB Reborn has been in development on IMDB for about two years now. And sorry, but do you even know what the word maybe means?

    Im not at all surprised! To make a Dragonballz live action film, they need HUGE funding and more knowledge on the storyline to make it a boxoffice hit! But because Dragonball Revolution didnt do so well and most of the fan base disliked the film, what are the chances of the cast and crew continuing on with this unsuccessful project? Very slim to nothing Id say, not to mention, by now, at least half of the cast should have other projects underway. Either give it a few more years, and start off with the reboot, with a decent storyline, graphics and whatnot or make the second film even better with more funding or just not touch it at all…. Id say a reboot, Dragonballz after all, has alot of potential to be a big hit imo

    Hey Avenged I’d like to ask you question. Would you like Vegeta and Nappa to be in the 2nd or the 3rd Dragonball movie?

    If Goku dies at the beginning of the movie then Vegeta and Nappa will pop up in the middle of the story making it a decent story. Well, sort of. But if Goku dies at the end the movie, the film would be a cliffhanger. Which story line would you choose?

    I’ll give you the story details later.

    iv seen the movie so many times, and i honestly at first like it and i always defend the movie for those people always disapproved the movie but now i am also the one disaproving it because of the story and execution of the movie. i am now like to see a reboot of the movie :) looks like no more Dragonball movie cosplaying for me check http://jeffbedash325.deviantart.com/#/d2uc05j

  • JesseJ

    Honestly, someone needs to break down fox’s door and straight up ask if there is a sequel or not

    There will be another Dragon ball movie, sequel? Maybe. Reboot? Maybe, but there WILL be one hopefully in the next couple years.

    What they should do is reboot Dragon ball the Anime and put it on the channel Star Wars: The Clone Wars is on. Get people to watch it, mostly kids ages 7-13 because those are the kids who aren’t familiar with the series, everyone older is. Then they make the movie so when they air the last episode, the movie will be release, and honestly, they can do so much more with DBZ then DB.

  • http://www.dblegends.com/members/admin/ avenged

    Vegeta and Raditz only would suffice enough.

  • Madison

    DBZ was waaay more popular in the US. I have no idea why they decided to make a dragonball movie and judge it by how it did in the US. What they should do is make a movie about the freiza saga. Goku goes super sayin, space travel, an alien world with blue grass and green water….thats something that would sell without people having to know about the series.

  • http://www.dblegends.com/members/admin/ avenged

    They started with DB because it makes sense to start at the beginning of a story.

  • SSJ Spartan

    Whoah, it’s been a long while since I posted here. I recently fixed my computer. Kinda depressing news I must admit. What a shame, I initally thought it was too premature to bring an epic DBZ movie to life but movies have just been getting better and better. They could pull an awesome one off with the right stuff (studio, budget, especially director). Maybe in our lifetime guys. Maybe.

  • Tasunara

    I want to make this movie. I’ll be at CalArts, next year, so hopefully Fox will still have the movie rights to Dragon Ball and I can make this movie.

  • supersaiyan517

    I think that 20th Century Fox should hurry up and say something about the film franchise whether reboot, sequel or otherwise. Reason being is that I would love see them give it another shot. I would rather have a sequel with better funding than a reboot because DB:E was a decent film with many flaws that can be remedied with a sequel. A reboot might result in a better origin but, that would mean it take even longer before we get to see a live action super saiyan. I mean come on we have waited years for this. The technology is ready, hollywood ready and we’re ready so Fox needs to make a sequel or reboot(prefereably a sequel) and do it without mistakes this time.

    A DBZ Disney flick? That would be horrid. It was bad enough when they took the hole out of Goku in Dragonball Kai.

  • aravindha

    I am a huge fan of DB.DBZ and DBGT and i was really disappointed with the movie and I would like to see it rebooted

    A Perfect Dragon Ball Movie

    Directed by: James Cameron
    Produced by: Zack Snyder
    Written by: ???
    Distributed by: Walt Disney
    Running Time: 2 Hours
    Starring:

    Noah Ringer as Kid Goku

    Tony Jaa as (Teen) Goku

    Kevin James as Yajirobe

    Chow-Yun Fat as Master Roshi

    Zac Efron as Yamcha

    Camila Sodi as Bulma Briefs

    Garry Oldman as Dr. Briefs

    James Marsters as Piccolo

    This is how a perfect movie of Dragon Ball should be respectfully done appreciatively. Bring all these things, people, ideas together and you would have yourself a perfect movie that will surely be best movie of the year and would get way more money than The Dark Knight, Avatar, and Iron Man 2 all together. This may be expensive to make, really expensive, but it would be worth it and will surely get all 5 stars. Greatest cartoon should adapt to greatest movie and be called, “The Movie That Blew Away Avatar.” I’m sure most of you can feel what I’m talking about. The reason I say it should be Directed by James Cameron is because we have all seen the wonders he did with the look of the world of Avatar. Dragon Ball needs that beauty and feel on the surrounding landmarks. Just imagine the landmarks from the cartoons; the mountains, desserts, the city, etc. Dragon Ball needs that and was birthed to have these looks in a live action film. The look of the cartoon just screams, “James Cameron is the only!”

    Since people say Zack Snyder for director, I put him as Producer. I think he is worthy enough for the job. A lot of people won’t take this movie serious but with Zac Snyder as producer then it would be taken serious and get the exact justice it needs.

    It is so hard to picture a writer worthy of Dragon Ball. I know James Marsters is not a writer but he has shown his zeal for the mythology and he deeply knows it. But I just don’t know. Maybe you guys could help me.

    I think the company of Disney should be involved. They can give that magical feel they give in all their movies when magic is summoned. After seeing Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time and the magical look and feel they provided, I suddenly imagined the look of how the powers would look in a Dragon Ball movie. Dragon Ball deserves the company of Walt Disney and I’m sure some will agree and others will not.

    The proper justice for the length of the film should be two hours straight; nothing higher and nothing lower. It would be enough to show the origins, enough time for the characters to have their time and enough for a great story ending with a special cliff hanger. Characters that should be in the movie and have all their justice time is the ones I listed above and others. They should try not to over fill the film with characters. Other characters include: Krillin, Red Ribbon Army, Grandpa Gohan, Piccolo Jr., Kami, Hercules (appearance at the Martial Arts Tournament), Chi-Chi, and Dr. Gero (cameo of the Red Ribbon Army).

    Now, the movie should be close and faithful to the anime/cartoon. We don’t want it so faithful that every scene looks familiar. I hated when people made their Fan-Fic stories and it would copy every scene that the cartoon provided, only with new little lines. We don’t want to go Watchmen’s way even though it was good. Its okay to make another story but please don’t do anything the actual creator wouldn’t do.

    I know I use a lot of stuff that resemble Dragon Ball Z in this movie but remember Dragon Ball Z wasn’t even thought about during Dragon Ball. When they thought of Dragon Ball Z, they tied it in with Dagon Ball. If they thought of Dragon Ball Z while doing Dragon Ball, then we would have seen some origins of someone new in Dragon Ball. Dr. Gero would have small part in it and we would have seen Goku’s space pod. When they tied DBZ with DB, they said Dr. Gero was one of the scientist working with Dr. Flappe. So it’s about tying it up and instead of doing it in DBZ, it would be better to tie them together in DB. I think Tony Jaa should play Goku. He’s an Asian and all he would need to do is learn proper English and we would have a damn perfecto Goku. Can’t they do something that would make Noah look a little like Tony Jaa? I heard this but I really don’t know what all they do in Hollywood. As for the personalities, Jaa might be able to have Goku’s personality locked down. That’s what actors do, they act. The Living proof is even Family Guy showed that they do this. Remember when Stewie wanted to live in the life of his favorite T.V show and Brian took him to the studio and he found out everything was fake. When he found out, he ran to the fairy mother or something and she wasn’t sweet like in the cartoon; she was a evil foreign bitch that didn’t even sound close to how she sounds in the cartoon; American.

    As for the race thing, it really doesn’t matter people. Both Asian and whites are used as Goku. I like this guy as Goku though and Saiyans aren’t Asians, they are aliens that resemble both Asian and Whites in the cartoon. So choices are choices. Whether you use that race or that race, we not making him black or Indian so people cant get mad. But I hear he went to be a monk so it’s unknown if he’ll return to acting. He should have nappy, crazy hair; not anything that they’ve already tried. Chow-Yun Fat was a terrific Master Roshi in Dragonball Evolution. Just make him more like the anime and he will be perfecto (without the hair old man). I don’t know that much about Camila Sodi but I have heard she was considered for Bulma in 2007. I think she would be perfect as both young and older Bulma. As for Gary Oldman as Bulma’s father, Dr. Briefs, do I need to say anything if you watch the Batman movies. Dude, looks straight up like him. Maybe we could have Kevin James as Yajirobe. I know he’s way older but like I said: Does it have to be exactly like the anime/cartoon? I know most of you can see this. Or maybe Jack Black. What if we had Zac Efron as Yamcha? If not Zac then maybe Jensen Ackles could play him? Just imagine Zac doing the Wolf Fang Fist. This will really work. I say Michael Caine should play Kami. He would be perfect to play Kami. He’s old and wise; just like Kami. None can argue with this: Ben Kingsly as Dr. Gero. He has the looks and everything. He was birthed for this role.

    @ Madison – LOL uhm, that was not Disney, that was Nicktoons. And FUNimation distributed it. And Disney would be a good choice for something like Dragon Ball. If they can make movies about pirates drinking rum and killing people then I am sure DBZ would be fine.

  • Madison

    I was referring to thegraveman86 and his idea, not kai. However, you bring up a good point about Pirates… If only DBZ was an american cartoon, we would’ve already gotten a big budget movie like spiderman and batman. Maybe its just because the people making movies right now don’t know or care about DBZ. Hopefully when the kids who grew up on DBZ start making movies it’ll get done, and get done right.

  • AJK

    I would like to see another studio pick up the rights for the film becasue FOX really hasn’t done anything for this fil which is very very sad. I believe that the Dragonball films if given to the right person could be huge, I wish that FOX would have done better but move on from FOX and let someother studio have it. Maybe Disney, Universal, or Nick… just saying.

    DONE
