James Marsters On Why A Sequel Would Suck.

I just love using people's own unaltered wrods against them.

Unless it's anime films, no.

DB needs A LOT of effort, as well as time, money, and knowledge of DB to bring to real life. And frankly, I don't see it happening.

Ah, but I do. It can be done, it wouldn't take near the massive amount people think, and I think it can be pulled off nicely if it's taken seriously.

This is just it, getting someone who would take it seriously.

Also not hard. Heck, M. Night Shyamalan looks to be taking Avatar seriously with his films too. Just gotta find the right guy. Won't be easy, but he's out there...

The right guy, who's interested in DB.

Ironically, it could work if they casted good Japanese/Chinese actors, follow the actual story and make the action be a combination of the Super Burly Brawl in the Matrix Revolutions with the Anime-inspired cinematography during the gang fight in Speed Racer.

But you know, that would require smart spending and brains...two things Hollywood does not have.

I actually would like to have live action DB movies, but now I kinda wish they don't plus there might be no time.

I also think that it's one of those franchises, like Speed Racer that is just too old now. Most of the people who liked Dragon Ball Z, never mind the original Dragon Ball are all grown up. I don't really see kids into it. I think in America it's like 10 or so years old and in Japan it's been long dead. Japanese people look at DB like how we look at the Flintstones.

Wow... just when I think James Masters cannot possibly get more retarded and pathetic, he does!

With every single thing he said in that video, he owned himself.

What a stupid moron.

Uh... you haven't been to Japan recently, have you? Dragon ball is as popular as it's ever been, and with the new series about to come out... yeah, that's kinda untrue.

Difference is: Speed Racer had been out for almost forty years before they made that movie.

Uh yes, I have. Flintstones and Loony Toons are still popular in America too. Just they are really fucking old now, aka it's not from their generation. So all those kids who die their hair Spiky and watch Naruto, Idolm@aster and Canaan...yea it's old or they have no idea what it is.

Also, I would hardly call Dragon Ball Kai new. It's more like releasing an HD upgrade of a Playstation One game.

P.S. Thanks for sneaking in the flame bait YouTube with all the "LOOK, I'm not racist but (insert racist remark here)" kind fo warnings.

I didn't snaek anything in, sir. I simply tested embedding so I didn't post a bunch of gibberish when I posted it in the relevant area. Hencve why i said "Ignore It".

Secondly: The point is, Kai will reintroiduce it to younger folks. So yeah, they won't be able to say "what is that" anymore.

And you KNOW you're full of BS when you say people familiar with Shonen Manga/Anime don't know what Dragon Ball is. They at least know that much, pally. Seriously, Why are you suddenly going on the attack? I get the feeling you don't like being corrected much.

Yes, it will reintroduce DB to a younger generation, much like how the new MachGoGoGo! Anime reintroduced Speed Racer to younger Japanese people. The thing is, that they are not "in style" anymore. Sure they are popular but they are popular in the same way for example The Blair Witch Project was popular, it's not like today's The Dar Knight, which in about ten years will also be old.

And yes, people in both America and Japan from my generation and older remember Dragon Ball, but it's not the same. It's not the same when you release a movie to a young franchise that has millions of children mostly between the ages of 8-12 watching it. It would kind of be like if DBE was released during the Cell Saga as oppose to releasing DBE now when the series had had its run and it's now on syndication for a couple of years now and even LONGER in Japan.

Also, why put in a flame bait video? Here is how I would have tested a YouTube embed:



Its random and it's also not flame bait.

P.S. I also corrected the Multiquotes for you.

Uh, again, that's not flame bait. That's one man's opinion of a movie, which I happen to agree with in this case. All I did was test it, I put "IGNORE IT" up top.

Sensitive much?

And dude, I really doubt you know what you're talking about. I really do. Certainly more widespread than Avatar, I can tell you that much.
