    One word LAME! :p

    Thanks to that link Cal, I was able to browse Youtube & found clips from THE old Chinese Dragonball Movie I once saw back in high school with my buddies. And unlike that American garbage you let us view, this is way better, in terms of the story & it's adaptation of the Anime, what does suck are the lame visual effects.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRYx2Fm0A2Q -> hmm, this is very intriguing, they re released the movie with some visual improvements? I didn't see that newer one though.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v9wEGbX0r7M -> The guy "Monkey Boy" (A.K.A. Goku) was fighting with is Yamcha, although in this movie he is called "Westwood" & Bulma was See-toh

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dz6b_E3aAEA -> ROFL, now that's how you make Buten Roshii ;D

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jX38JOO1lTY&feature=related -> Yeah, here's THE movie in it's full glory, well part one of nine parts anyway. Thank you Youtube & the guys who uploaded these there :D

    Don't waste your hard earned cash watching that crap Fox will release this year, spend it instead in searching for & buying a copy of this awesome Chinese movie on the net.

    dont worry i am not so watching that crap. i found the title is funny since evolution is about making things better, but they are making it worse XD

    edit: wow Kame was really funny XD, so the 1st clip was about goku rescuing pretty girl from the giant which is a shape shifting pig (i forget his name). I must say Hong Kong really know how to make fighting movie.

    That was the Chinese version of Oolong.

    I don't want to give any spoilers away but that movie's story runs through the begining of Goku's story when he was still a kid 'til his encounter with King Pilaf.

    I'll Kamehameha at this movie
    Actually it looks like an OK action movie. If they change the name to something like Monkey's Balls , I'll watch it.

    You all say it's going to be huge fail, because you know of the previous anime. The amount of manga adaptations i've seen seeing as my grandad is a HUGE oriental movie fan, 7 swords was an amazing film and there's many more.

    Yeah it's poorly casted and the Dbz universe as a whole is vast and unimaginable BUT from what the trailer shows it looks reasonably decent.

    Just look at it as a NEW movie not a spin off from DragonBall Z.

    Then it shoudn't be called dragon ball in the first place lol i find the hollywood studio loves to localize(americanize everything)not only that but like anime they always remove the background music and replace it with sometime bad like speed racer its just a movie with the same title but everything americanize..Actually the reason is pretty simple all in for the money lol one biggest example is the forbidden kingdom.Damn i hate that show but when i go to rotten tomatoes everyone is rating it 70%+ and seriously asians really find nothing special in that movie^_^
