    Dragonball Evolution was so shit that it drove Akira Toriyama out of retirement, which led to Battle of Gods, Resurrection F, Broly, Super Hero and an entirely new anime/manga series titled Dragon Ball Super.

    It even technically is leading to Dragon Ball Daima, which looks like a serious effort to try and do the whole ‘Goku is a kid again’ concept that Dragon Ball GT fucked up 25 years ago.

        Dragonball Evolution was a horrible Hollywood adaptation of Dragon Ball’s original plot.

        Imagine that instead of making it the action-packed goofy parody of Return to the West that Akira Toriyama originally envisioned, you instead make Goku and Chi Chi US high-schoolers and Bulma some kind of secret agent.

        It’s more like the movie was so utterly dogshit that Toriyama felt he had to personally step in and ensure the franchise wasn’t going to die on that negative note.
