Dragonball Evolution Live Blog.

So, I managed to get a copy of a large chunk of the live new terrible live action movie, "Dragonball Evolution", which came out in theaters in Japan just a few days ago, and comes out in theaters in the US next month. I did not watch the entire movie, though I have seen various chunks of the movie already. What I watched today were the scenes leading up to the ending, and the ending itself.

The following is an IM with my buddy Tsukento. Tsukento and I are both HUGE fans of Dragonball, and have been since our early childhood. Both of us are basically walking, talking Dragonball Encyclopedias.

The following IM conversation is mostly just my rantings as I watched the ending of the movie, my immediate impressions as the events unfolded. It is pretty brief convo, and I will probably write a real review tomorrow, or the next day. I just wanted to convey my emotions while I watched this travesty.

THIS DOES CONTAIN SPOILERS .. kind .. if you even give a rats ass.
