I just _____ in the _____.

Uh, I dunno Aiko, my dad says it was like a fake version of Java or something. It had wonky stuff like "internet speed monitor" and "GetModule30"

Things are looking good though, and I finished my classes, so I should be able to post.

That's awesome to hear B. I do hate it when something crappy happens to my computer, although it's never gotten funky by a virus (I tend to use AVG free). I also use other stuff to keep my computer clean, such as CCleaner and Spybot S&D. The only problem is that my computer does occaisonally freeze, at least when I'm running too much stuff (Or when I'm too lazy to clean it XD).

Oh ****.

Has Uwe Boll had a hand in this? because they've freaking ruined half the cast.

Escpecially Bulma.

Roffel House!

I want to laugh, and I am, but I'm ashamed to say that I think I may actually watch it just so I can laugh harder at it when I'm done.

Rant: It's December, and we have a tornado watch. That's just not right.

This is quite possibly the worst movie preview I've ever seen. Pretty much rivals my thoughts for Speed Racer. >.>

IMDB sez Uwe Boll has had nothing to do with this film: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1098327/. In any case, he makes craptastic box office poison out of video games, not anime. Why anyone would even attempt to film anime in the first place is beyond me anyway.

(Full disclosure: I have a deep psychotic hatred for all things DBZ-related, so I don't find this quite as tragic as some of y'all do)

That being said, the people behind this movie must have some pretty incriminating photos of Chow Yun-Fat stashed away somewhere. I can't think of any other logical reason as to why he would be in this waste of celluloid.

And does anyone else think it's hilarious that the main guy has the same haircut as Ted from "How I Met Your Mother"?

I used to like DBZ a long long time ago; now, I don't. In fact, I probably have some borderline hatred for it now as some of my anime fans do. I actually heard about this a long time ago from my anime club friends, and further more had it confirmed by IGN. I didn't need any convincing that this is going to be horrible; no offense to people that would actually like the series.

Oh well, there realy isn't much for me to say about this movie.

On a side note, me and some of my anime buddies made jokes about one of the charascters in the movie doing that "IT'S OVER NINE-THOUSAND!!!!!" quota. Man that would cheese eveything up tenfold.

Apparently he's part of the film (or at least originally joined it) because he is (or at least was) a fan of the manga.

The same goes for James Masters.

As for DBZ, I don't find it a bad anime considering it was originally made what, 20 or 30 years ago?
and in comparison to the leather clad boarderline-emo protagonists we have in most series today, the idea of Goku is somewhat... refreshing.

What really makes it bad (in my opinion) is the mass of filler, the pace of the plot and fights and both the dialogue and voice acting.
And most of the plots and generous use of deus ex machina.

I'll stop now before I really get going.
