This Is How You Dragonball Z
Everyone who reads anything on Unreality should know what Dragonball Z is…right? If you haven’t and happen to utilize Hulu then you can view all the episodes that way or find a site like animefreak (or whatever it’s called) and watch them all via your browser. The story is centralized around the character Goku, a Saiyan, (an extraterrestrial) who was sent to Earth as an infant to conquer the planet for the alien race. Plans go awry when Goku is knocked on the head and forgets that he’s a Saiyan much less an alien sent to destroy the planet. Long story short, he ends up becoming the most powerful Saiyan ever and helps to protect Earth from many of it’s invaders including other Saiyans. (along with a huge list of other villains and baddies – I’m not going to list them all – go watch the show!)
Suffice it to say, the show is still popular long after it concluded the ‘Z’ run. The following artwork from artist wwysocki gives a prime example of just how inspiring it can still be.
One of the best representations of Goku I’ve ever seen illustrated! (along with Frieza) I sure hope that we see more of these in the future!
I’d be so keen to see a live-action Dragonball that’s actually good. If not full live-action, at least something that would suit these posters. The animation in the Tekken CGI film could really bring it to life.
I agree – I’d love to see a live action DBZ that could make whatever has transpired in the past seem like a horrible distant memory/nightmare. I’d even be up for something close to Avatar and the mocap tech they used for that to achieve something spectacular.
James Cameron DBZ? Done :p
James Cameron… terrible idea. I think some things need to be left alone in terms of live-action, and DBZ is just too big to be done without there being a huge chance of losing integrity. Something like CGI would be great, but live action… no way
