PARTY PLEASER:
Happy Piccolo day! Melanie and Melvin check out the long forgotten Hollywood live-action adaption of Dragonball!
Topics:
- (PATREON EXCLUSIVE) 41-minutes discussing what makes Anime/Manga live-action adaptions so difficult to adapt, what unique characteristics separate the mediums, and what Anime/Manga would make a good live-action adaption (PATREON EXCLUSIVE)
- What background do Melanie and Melvin have with the Dragonball franchise?
- The start of Dragonball Evolution is an info dump that immediately confounds the movie. Melvin cross examines the Dragonball Evolution canon against the actual Dragonball canon.
- Dragonball Evolution’s general sense of setting and location is all over the place, and it never permits its audience a solid footing. Is it set on Earth? Is this a fantasy continent? What time period is it?
- There is one truly great thing that has come from Dragonball Evolution and it's a goofy edit someone made for YouTube. Here it is.
- Dragonball Evolution infrequently contains somewhat intriguing setting design choices, such as Master Roshi's house, but most of the time the movie is unpleasant to look at.
