"I give this movie 7 out of 7 dragonballs, because after watching this movie I wish I were dead." Mason, who isn't even a DBZ fan, had the best burn for this movie.
The reason why the attack is named after a Hawaiian emperor is because the author of Dragon Ball is a goof, and he noticed that the emperor's name is coincidentally "turtle destruction wave" in Japanese, so he made up a story about a turtle-themed martial arts master that teaches Goku how to do the "turtle destruction wave." That really is the entire reason.
Totally I thought he looked familiar but I couldn't quite place it. I guess around 2009 breaking bad was super hot so I guess the casting director loved the idea of making goku look like pinkman
I can't tell if that was meant to be Piccolo or King Piccolo cause he attacked centuries ago or whatever, so maybe it's Piccolo, but he isn't out for vengeance so it must be King Piccolo
@@kylemagaro3163 King Piccolo is the one who attacked centuries ago and was traped by Roshi's master. In DB, he was believed to be a demon... Piccolo (or Piccolo Jr) is the one we all know from DBZ and he was spit out by King Piccolo to avenge Kid Goku punched him through his chest. So Im pretty sure this was meant to be King Piccolo...
King Piccolo didn't technically die, but the body that was originally King Piccolo did. Piccolo Jr is in essence, King Piccolo, having put the remaining power he had into birthing himself, and transferring his soul to the new body. At the same time however, Piccolo Jr is his own person, and gradually distanced himself from King Piccolo.
I turned to my grandpa for tips on getting chicks just like in the movie Lion King where Simba is out in a field and a giant cloud rolls in and it’s his dad Mufasa who tells Simba how to get chicks
As a huge fan of both, (transformers from the 80's not bays bullshit) this doesnt make sense if you are referring to the movies cuz goku is much older than sam in that case so the sentence should be flipped.
That bit about the teacher asking Goku a question after 6 months almost made me spit up cereal. Teacher: So Goku what do you think about this nation? Goku: Well the aliens Teacher: *groans* Lmfao
the only reason to like this is that Toriyama has see this and thought that this is not how he wishes to end his legacy. so he created dragonball super... and for that i thank the creators of DBE
Agreed. Maybe for 21, the year of the infamous Snyder Cut, do another creator playlist (include Mr. Sunday & Mason) “A darn curious scene” a breakdown of all Dc film/tv
For the stylistic art aspect and CG visuals I love watching Speed Racer,.. but that's it, I just think it's too cheesy. But the ending though is still my fav not gonna lie
Justin Chatwin was actually really good in the Doctor Who special he was in! He played a superhero who the Twelfth Doctor had accidentally given powers to as a child. So the Doctor is visiting him all along his timeline to monitor him. Hilarious and heartwarming episode.
To me the weirdest decision about this movie is that it can’t decide if this is some fantasy world or our actual reality. They’re talking about aliens and magic dragons and wild shrinking folding vehicle tech, but then suddenly it’s a modern day American high school. And everyone thinks Goku is nuts even though they clearly live in a world with all the crazy nonsense.
Can't believe James would use a Attack on Titan opening at the start of the video and pretend like he's even watched it, you make me sick James Clement you make me sickkkkk!!!!!!!!!!!! Nah but you're alright
Trivia: Akira Toriyama, the author of the series, is pretty big on Hawaii and Hawaiian culture and whatnot, and while he was working on the series, his wife made him notice that "Kamehameha" in Japanese can roughly mean "Destructive turtle wave"
It's not that bad, not like DB was a masterpiece, probably nostalgia more than anything for most people of the show. That being said I have a question. I don't doubt it's probably the same reasoning for A LOT of anime, but were the creators high or something when they came up with DBZ or DB in general? I mean it's Stephen King levels of fucking stupid but kind of cool. I mean half monkey aliens who are gods basically who fight against cyborgs, green aliens and drag queen gray lizard man, oh and patrick star with red eyes. I mean you can't come up with that stuff rationally.
Speed Racer is worse????? That movie was a FANTASTIC reimagining of the original cartoon right down to the plot beats. It was literally an episode of Speed Racer extended over 2 hours and looks AMAZING
I thought at one point that this movie was like some kind of fever dream. I was home sick, my girlfriend had been binge-watching Shameless, my brother had started watching DB again, and then boom. I had to check IMDb to make completely sure I hadn't gone mad.
The Speed Racer from the anime was a two-fisted, surly asskicker and I don't know if it'd be possible to actually make him sympathetic AND remain true to the character. I'd rather see someone lean into the grittiness as much as the bizarre shit because half the fun of old shows is the totally different worldview of the creators
Death note seams kinda good not dragon ball bad but it's not alita good I think it's saveable possibly with a sequel? But I have no idea.. Ironically it is getting a sequel so.. obviously had to be something good
Death Note, the anime is an exercise in the importance of setting rules to define and play inside a supernatural event to create interesting and novel conflicts within a story, and the live action *American* Death Note movie is an exercise in _how_ not understanding that - as a writer - ruins the experience for the audience.
james marsters as piccolo was the best thing about that whole film... fun fact: the actors that played goku and bulma were fiona and jimmy from shameless.. the more you know
Another fun fact: James is the only reason Piccolo was green , originally he wasn’t going to be green , but then James said the fans would riot Another another fact: James also played Zamasu a recent villain in dragon ball super
@@willchalloner6643 More fun facts: Marsters was [allegedly] a series fan Opinion: I think he would have made a decent Demon King Piccolo/Kami in a better Dragon Ball film.
Roshi looking younger than Grandpa Gohan is one of the few things that makes sense in this so called movie. Roshi drank immortality water, so he's actually three hundred years old and stopped aging.
Love how Ben edited in a picture of Arin from Game Grumps when James was talking about Speed Racer. I feel like there's been numerous Grumps/NSP references on this channel lately.
Bens edits add so much to this. Thanks Ben. Also this movie is an atrocity. I still enjoy sketching imaginary dragon ball characters. Wish i had all my old drawings from the 2000s.
Jamie Chung is the only thing that I can save from this movie. "It's going to be difficult to miss a post-credit scene" "Actually no, super easy, barely an inconvenience" "You missed the post-credit scene biiiiiiiitch!"
Yay! You finally added the footnote that it had bad special effects! I didn't get the impression that this movie is garbage because YOU GUYS ARE JUST TOO GOOD. Time for the extended cut... I need to FEEL how bad it was.
when i saw this at the theatre the movie actually cut out when goku gets knocked out in the final battle and it seemed like just a long blackout sequence till the ushers came in and told us to watch something else
Evil Piccolo does die in the DB cartoon. The Piccolo in DBZ is the second Piccolo. The first Piccolo spits an egg out of his mouth when he dies. Also,....NERD!!!!!!
I love the fact that Toriyama saw this movie, saw how horrifyingly bad it was, and came back out of retirement because he refused to let this be the last Dragon Ball movie.
Only solid anime or manga adaptation I have seen to this date is Blades of the Immortal. Can't say how well it is adapted never seen the anime or read the manga. But I thought the movie was very entertaining and it kind of felt like a manga or anime. With it almost feeling like the movie was split up into condensed episodes or chapters with him having to fight a different enemies over the course of the movie until the final huge battle. I haven't seen Battle Angel don't really have much of an interest to at all but hear mixed feelings about it.
@@TitanGoji Yea that would be something I would be interested in seeing how I never even knew there was 20 live action adaptations. And the only ones I have ever seen other then Blades of the Immortal where pretty bad. Like the AOT live action film which I felt had bad special effects like how the Titans where literally just people in poorly made skin tight suits and then FMA film which I didn't think was terrible just very very average and that it's impossible to adapt a 64 episode anime into a 2 hour movie. Send me a link to that video and I'll give it a watch.
Blades of the Immortal is my favorite live action anime or manga adapted film. It felt very much like a anime with the film basically being broken up into episodes. With each new opponent he has to fight being an episode with other parts sprinkled in to flesh out certain things. And the film follows that formula until the end when you get the huge epic final battle.
Hey! Speed Racer is an excellent homage and love letter to the source material and I love it! Except for Spridle and Chim Chim, they can go straight to hell.
Agreed, as a child speed racers visuals imprinted in my mind and I still love it to this day. And without speed racer then we wouldn't have the ninja assassin movie
I first saw it a couple of years ago and thought it was the best anime to film adaptation I'd ever seen. It was stylised like an anime, but just wasn't animated.
Yup, the craft is pretty excellent, and the story and themes are actually pretty damn cool, albeit hamfisted here and there. And yes, the odd kid-friendly moment here and there sours an otherwise fun watch.
I liked Speed Racer, it was nice family fun. I don't know the anime, so that might have something to do with it. Adaptation that was the worst imho is Space Battleship Yamato, awesome visual effects, but the actors were worse than a couple of students doing a fan film.
Speed Racer is actually really good though, it just got a bad rap because people didn't like the style of the visuals. Also Spritle. Yeah, I'll admit, he's annoying.
Definitely one of my favorites. I think that Sprite is the result of an attempt at faithfulness combined with “kid appeal” but if they just fully leaned into the mature elements and left him and Chim-Chim by the way side, I’d dare say that Speed Racer would be a great movie.
I prided myself on never watching this movie. And then you guys made a caravan of garbage about it and it was over. Bravo, your fans love you that much they'd torture themselves to hear your banter! Now to go cleanse my palette with Dragon Ball Super : Broly.
Yoooooooo the clip at 10:33 is from animekon in Barbados!!!! How did you guys even find this!!! That's cool gonna link this to my friends!! They are gonna freak out!
Its funny Bulma and Goku are Jimmy and Fiona in "Shameless" and that started shooting a year after this came out, Showtime saw them in 2009s "Dragonball: Evolution" and instantly thought lets build our next hit show around them.
Never laughed so hard on an alternate interpretation of a Kamehameha as a First King of Hawaii being a projectile being shot towards a target as Goku follows behind. It's a like a Dragon Punch but with the King instead of a dragon. The editing on that is godly.
You're speaking a lot of dragonball z during this dragonball movie. The guy who wrote the screenplay later talked about how he had never watched the source material and apologized
It seems like the prologues of recent movies/video games are more interesting than the tales they try to tell. If the movie focused on Piccolo trying to take over the earth with a group of Saiyans - it wouldn't be canon with the anime, but it would have been a much much better premise than the boring one they decided to go with.
Mr Sunday Movies and Dragon Ball some of my fav things (although it is about the shitty ass live action film, but DBZ nonetheless LOL) Huge fan and hope to get my channel to a fraction of what you're doing! You are an inspiration.
Emmy Rossum was sooooo fine in this movie "I give it 7 dragon balls out of 7 because after watching it..I WISH I was dead." Fucking brilliant and you got a sub after that.
6:10 I had a thought about the drink pour. If he was able to slick back and style his hair without that pop up gag and it popped up when they got it wet that would've worked way better.
Damn how did you guys make this all up? Your RUclips budget is getting crazy. At first I was like woah a Live Action dragonBall film but alas it’s just some fan movie you guys made lol, good job. I mean if they ever made a real dragonBall movie it would be pretty good lol. Imagine if this was real, lol. Good one guys. Such imaginations.
I completely forgot they were going to use the containment technique in this movie. It comes up in Dragon Ball Super, too. This movie gets a *lot* of little beats perfectly, but the movie reeks of someone who *loves* Dragon Ball but *has no idea how to make a movie*.
"I give this movie 7 out of 7 dragonballs, because after watching this movie I wish I were dead."

And they fight against the forces of Freezer, cooler, and King Cold.

6:39 Does Goku's house have a healing factor? It seems to be in relatively good condition after what Piccolo did to it.
I prided myself on never watching this movie. And then you guys made a caravan of garbage about it and it was over. Bravo, your fans love you that much they'd torture themselves to hear your banter! Now to go cleanse my palette with Dragon Ball Super : Broly.
He generates the first king of Hawaii
*IM DEAD*
I miss 2009, Michael Joseph Jackson was still alive and probably auditioned for a part in this movie.
"Leave Jiren to me"-Chad Kroeger of Nickelback-2009
Mr. Sunday Movies!!! And Mason!!! You two make my day whenever you post a video.
Yoooooooo the clip at 10:33 is from animekon in Barbados!!!! How did you guys even find this!!! That's cool gonna link this to my friends!! They are gonna freak out!
I loved Speed Racer. I watched it with my son every day when he was younger. He loved it!
Its funny Bulma and Goku are Jimmy and Fiona in "Shameless" and that started shooting a year after this came out, Showtime saw them in 2009s "Dragonball: Evolution" and instantly thought lets build our next hit show around them.
Netflix's Death Note is legitimately worse.
nahhhhhh dafoe puts it just over
3:53 I had the exact same hairstyle during that time and I'd say It was pretty popular back then
Can't wait to see the Hollywood hair on the red carpet at the premiere, you know James has that goat hair on point
0:25 Please give the name of this clip
Never laughed so hard on an alternate interpretation of a Kamehameha as a First King of Hawaii being a projectile being shot towards a target as Goku follows behind. It's a like a Dragon Punch but with the King instead of a dragon.
The editing on that is godly.
The piccolo from dbz is piccolo Jr and his dad was trapped inside a magic jar
You're speaking a lot of dragonball z during this dragonball movie.
The guy who wrote the screenplay later talked about how he had never watched the source material and apologized
It seems like the prologues of recent movies/video games are more interesting than the tales they try to tell. If the movie focused on Piccolo trying to take over the earth with a group of Saiyans - it wouldn't be canon with the anime, but it would have been a much much better premise than the boring one they decided to go with.
Speed racer is a good movie
"I give it seven dragon balls cause after this I wish I was dead" lol
Mr Sunday Movies and Dragon Ball
some of my fav things
(although it is about the shitty ass live action film, but DBZ nonetheless LOL)
Huge fan and hope to get my channel to a fraction of what you're doing! You are an inspiration.
Emmy Rossum was sooooo fine in this movie
"I give it 7 dragon balls out of 7 because after watching it..I WISH I was dead." Fucking brilliant and you got a sub after that.
You should play the PSP game with the digitized actors from the movie....it's as bas as it sounds
It's not that bad, mostly because it is a Budokai game.
6:10 I had a thought about the drink pour.
If he was able to slick back and style his hair without that pop up gag and it popped up when they got it wet that would've worked way better.
The only Dragon Ball villain better than Frieza
Fuller
Edit: Only three people here get the joke XDDD
The fuck...Cell...Cell is the best....no others compare!
Fuller base form
Fat buu best character arc though
If there was a sequel Fuller would have become Krillin.
Guys... guys... garlic jr
Deathnote the Netflix version was pretty bad too.
Damn how did you guys make this all up? Your RUclips budget is getting crazy. At first I was like woah a Live Action dragonBall film but alas it’s just some fan movie you guys made lol, good job. I mean if they ever made a real dragonBall movie it would be pretty good lol. Imagine if this was real, lol. Good one guys. Such imaginations.
The instant transmission Kamehameha IS the best, great choice
I completely forgot they were going to use the containment technique in this movie. It comes up in Dragon Ball Super, too.
This movie gets a *lot* of little beats perfectly, but the movie reeks of someone who *loves* Dragon Ball but *has no idea how to make a movie*.
I bought this on a $2 bootleg, pirated, cam recorded video on DVD while I was deployed to Iraq and still felt ripped off after watching it.
