He protected his family and friends because of selfish reasons but he wasn't out there using his super strength and flight abilities to fight crime on Earth. If his friends weren't in danger he would just train alone in the mountains to get stronger and find yummy stuff to eat.

Yup, there's a reason Piccolo was chosen because he was the big bad for the end of Dragonball. Just to hit the highlights: 1. Killed Tien, Master Roshi, and Krillin 2. Took over the world albeit briefly 3. Handed Goku his ass several times 4. After having his youth restored he destroyed Shenron so no one could use the dragonballs against him 5. Even when he was defeated he made a reincarnation/son to carry out his revenge on Goku years later and continue his evil legacy.

The funny thing is, in the original Dragon Ball story his grandfather was already dead for some months before the story starts (Goku's killed him, while he became an giant ape and he didn't know about it). So even the original story the artist had a small twist on this trope. Goku also didn't wish him back, since his grandfather told him (long story), he didn't wanted to go back. Goku's second mentor (Master Roshi) died in the third arc (he isn't even the first friend of Goku to die).

When he was training with Krillin he eventually turn 12 after Roshi taught him how to count properly. Also his training took over the course of 7 months so there's that. This is me being nick picky so this part you don't have to read. After Goku defeated the Red Ribbon army, met his dead grandpa after beating him, he explore the world for 3 years for the next tournament. When he meet Tien he was 15 at the time. After killing King Piccolo 3 years past again and he was 18 at the time. 5 years later (cause DBZ took place 5 years after he defeated Piccolo's son) he's about 23 when Raditz came around. 1 year later he is 24, went to Namek, spent a year and a half in space now 25, 3 years later during the android saga 28 (29 after he got out of the time chamber), 7 years later when the Majin Buu saga started he was 36 ( I know he was dead at the time so he didn't age but I don't care). Now in DBS which took lace a few years after Majin Buu's defeat he's about 39-early forties as of now. Like I said you don't need to read that last paragraph I was just putting it out there cause I felt like it. If I miss a detail or two let me know.

This movie was atrocious, they changed all the lore. Goku is not Japaneses, he is an alien from planet Vegita, he was never a dork or in school, he was only interested in training and getting better, also Chichi was the one that was after him, not the other way around.

Ohhhhhh! She was supposed to be *Chichi*! I honestly was wondering who she was. I havn't watched the movie and it's been a while since I saw the review. None of the characters were remotely like the anime/manga, so I was having trouble. Goku and Piccolo were obvious, but that was it.

You complain about how the bike appeared out of nowhere from a little device, but in the anime they have little capsules that can turn into full hover cars. So yes it makes sense in the DBZ world. Tho it is indeed ridiculous it is something they did get right....sorta.

They're not reviewing the Anime, just the movie. Even if the Anime explains things better, the movie is clearly not supposed to be a product that is based on the source material's canon/continuity, so it shouldn't be required to watch Dragon Ball/DBZ to understand the movie if the movie was written well.

The strangest part of this shit...DragonBall actually has nothing to do with the old mentor dying thing. You know the grandpa in this movie? At the first episode of DB, he was already dead. And was not the inspiration for Goku`s journey or any of that...Goku seemed pretty fine and resolved in that department. This characters are just share the same names as the ones in the anime. The story? More like a shitty spiderman than dragonball really.

I honestly feel its impossible to make a solid live action shonen. You can probably get away with something like MHA since its basically "japanese super heroes" but American filmaking cant really make a story of a "annoyingly chipper space monkey fights literally everything the universe throws at him while screaming to make his hair grow and change colors while 50% is filler/drawn out misadventures 25%is heavy grunting and breathing and the 20% is fighting and the other 5% is sex jokes". Edit: Don't worry, reader, I watch and enjoy DBZ. Hell my first game on the One was Xenoverse.

The sad thing is: they could have done something new with the "sensing the real person" cliché: in the anime and in this pile of garbage they call a movie, Goku has the ability to sense person's lifeforces, he even could sense his grandfather and Master Roshi. So it made no sense, that he couldn't sense the real ChiChi and the writers even abused the Kamehameha for this: it's a deadly attack, not a reviving attack.

But the point is he's very obviously an Asian-derived character. Toriyama even gave him a Bruce Lee-esque design on one of his Kanzenban covers. Just because he's an alien doesn't negate the fact that it would've been more suitable to have an Asian play as him, just as there'd be resistance over Superman's actor being played by someone who wasn't Caucasian.

I cannot stand the arrogance of filmmakers who see an animated film or cartoon and say "I could do it better in live action!" NO! You can't! Why? BECAUSE IT"S ANIMATION!! There is a reason why people LOVE animation, it's because we can lose ourselves in it more easily. We love to imagine ourselves as one of those cartoon or anime characters and pretend we could do all this stuff to. The minute you try to adapt this to live action your movie is guaranteed to fail. Animation is able to do things that we as live people CANNOT do in rel life no matter how much CGI bullshit you put on it or strings you attach to the people.
