20th Century Strikes again! -April Fool's joke!

Well 20th century fox has striked again now DBZ isn't the only vicitim their actually trying to climb rights to movies they've made and the now have control over every character in the new X men movie and you know what this means there going to try and get their greedy little hands on Dragonball and remake it into some live action TV series where Goku tries to discover his origins and helps his friends search for the dragon-balls so they can revive Grandpa Gohan while fighting Piccolo! This is grave news indeed Fantastic Four and Dare-Devil are also potiental targets. We need to make a petition to stop 20th century fox from gaining control over various manga and comic book characters!

Link to Wolverine madness.

An update from Son Goku: This is an April Fool's joke. If you notice the last part of the article talking about Wolverine: Primus Aprilus. That's code for April 1st, or April Fool's day. Seriously, Marvel is not this stupid and neither is TOEI, so unless either title causes the company to lose money aka become a liability, neither will be interested in selling the property. They'd probably have to have consent from Toriyama anyway (TOEI would).

They already screwed Wolverine up. *sniffles* WHY? OH WHY??? *slams head against wall*

They are now targeting Marvel! We need multiple petitions to stop Fox!

oh heck no....

Seriosuly Wolverine and everyone in the movie will be their's! Now If they make a DBE TV series! Plus they almost have gotten Fantastic Four and Daredevil and may remake them because they are too unrealastic and too close to the comics! I mean FF2 was already messed up Surfer owning Galactus no a flying cloud but they'll make him some normal sized alien who talks slang!

No, you guys need to stop this now. I'm sorry, but please read the last line of the article. It says the last Wolverine will be titled Wolverine: Prima Aprilus. If you're not from the U.S. then I'll understand why you didn't get the April Fool's joke (prima = 1st, Aprilus = April

I'm moving this thread and editing the title and article. I'm not trying to be a jerk or anything. I'm just trying to keep everyone informed of what's true so they don't go doing unnecessary things.

Um, Son Goku that wasn't an April Fool's Joke. I don't think it was seirously I think they were being serious, i know the last Title and things but still Fox is taking over. But I hope it's a joke

hmmm well someone made a Zelda movie trailer as a joke and I didn't find it funny.

It was an April Fool's joke. Trust me on this one. For further proof, look at the day it was posted.

But wait, didn't Fox already announce that they were making a Wolverine movie for later this year?



Yeah?

And Fantastic Four already has 2 movies, and they are speaking of a third, but nothing confirmed. Daredevil as a movie also, but it's not bad, and I don't even think it was made by 20th century.

Ugh. This all makes me sad.

Ok now I get it!

The movie was made, but the April fools joke was that Fox had stolen the Marvels rights to not only Wolverine, but several other characters. See this is the April fools joke...the movie still suck though.

That's a whack joke. Bunch of morons.

Good joke. Everybody laugh. Roll snare drum. Curtains.

actually they were really trying to make a zelda movie, im guessing its in the same "probly wont ever come out" category as watchmen and db (live action). but its not like it wont ever come out, it'll just take a decade. idk actually, i've seen plenty of hoax trailers and horrible bullcrap that people put together, but i did see one that was just amazing, i'll post it if i can find it. and hopefully zelda has a place in history next to watchmen and not dbe

I agree with you about the april fools joke but I loved the Wolverine movie... i know it was made by FOX, and that they do not follow exactly the comics origins but at least they made a decent and a serious movie that actually had resembless with the series...plus actors like Hugh Jackman are the best
The Wolverine movie was not a joke like DBE!! it was a very good action movie... why do you not like it??

Yeah, I visit IGN.com everyday and they're the ones who made that Zelda trailer. I knew it was a fake from the start. It even says 'made by IGN' in the trailer.

Yeah im pretty gullible. >_< Plus that dude that played Link was hideous.it would be awesome if they made it like advent children...
