Meh.Maybe he should've thought twice and kept it to movies.

Huh. Guess I can't play Devil's Advocate for Super with Toriyama complaining about it. REALLY hope he's open to the idea of a series of live-action movies made by a fan who LOVES the series.

I really don't think Dragon Ball is filmable.

When I saw Man of Steel, I thought that the people who did the effects for it would be an infinitely better choice for a DBZ movie than a Superman movie.

A live action DB movie is definitely a thing that can happen. Thing is, it requires non-stupid people to make it, and that's apparently not an option in Hollywood.

Well, lets see how this goes shall we?

And yeah. Evolution pissing him off enough to come back to the franchise is in fact old news.

I do wonder what he's gonna do now.

I now feel vindicated in my poor opinion of Super.

BTW, did Freeza stuff ended? Because I decided to put it on hold until we get to the new stuff.

It might just be the fact that there's been a lot of QUALITY animation going on...

Most likely, he had heard about Episode 5, just as we did.

I mean, the animation for that episode was so bad, they had to fix it for the Blu-rays. And they NEVER fix animation for blu-rays for long-running series like this. They don't do it for One Piece. Sailor Moon Crystal is a bit different.

There must have been a LOT of backlash against that episode. Why else would they spend time fixing it?

But from what I can tell, Super is just so poorly handled right now that the animators don't even have time to look over their work properly. It's not that they're purposely being cheap (although that's part of it). It's just that the entire production has been a complete mess, and that's why it looks so bad.

Basically, TOEI is just being TOEI and TOEI is a bunch of fucking incompetent nincompoops and assholes on the level of Konami.

I don't know if they're Konami levels. Do they turn their franchises into-

Oh, wait. They probably DO have One Piece Pachinko machines. Why wouldn't they?

So this makes me wonder how much of Super was Toriyama's idea at all.

Well, Super hasn't done anything NEW for him to complain about yet.

But it's pretty clear that he was involved more in the original movies than the retellings. I really doubt he would have included references to filler.

I'm fairly sure he was complaining about the animation quality (and specifically Episode 5). Not that 'he didn't like the story' or anything.

What if he convinces them to redo the current arc as a new movie?

"Vile" seems excessive. It wasn't that bad.

The only things that were bad about the RF arc were the Goku/Freeza fight and Ginyu's reappearance. Everything else was alright and sometimes even an improvement over the movie.

At least, that's my opinion.

I actually liked the Ginyu return from the most part. It was anticlimatic though that Tagoma, even with the new power up, was still implied to be weaker than an out of shape Gohan.
