Dragonball Movie Changing Names (But is the Film Lame?)
It looks like 20th Century Fox is settling in on a name for this film, in fact they’ve already already taken the web domain DragonballEvolutionmovie.com. For a generation of anime fanboys (and fangurls) Dragonball has a cherished place in their childhood, and I hope Hollywood doesn’t get it wrong (although from what I’ve seen Im not too hopeful):
“20th Century Fox may have extended the title of its upcoming “Dragon Ball” adaptation to Dragonball Evolution. If it’s indeed the new title the studio is going with, we should find out for sure soon. Written and directed by James Wong, the big screen version stars Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, Jamie Chung, Emmy Rossum, Eriko Tamura, Joon Park, Chow Yun-Fat, Texas Battle, Randall Duk Kim and Ernie Hudson. Opening in theaters on April 8, the film is based on the manga created by Akira Toriyama.”
