Dragonball Evolution Pitch Meeting

Dragon Ball is an incredibly popular anime, so it makes sense that Hollywood decided to take a crack at a live-action adaptation. Maybe it would have been helpful if the movie was actually BASED on Dragon Ball in ways other than just the character names.
Dragonball Evolution raises a lot of questions. Like why did Goku fling a fly in his grandpa’s mouth. How did Piccolo escape? Why does Goku carry a Dragonball to a teenager party? Why does Piccolo go to Goku’s home if he can sense that the ball isn’t there? Why didn’t Goku just explain himself to Roshi instead of fighting him? Why did Roshi waste a bunch of time in the pit if he was perfectly capable of jumping out? How does digging through that pit lead them to the top of an open-sky volcano? How did anyone think this movie was a good idea?
To answer all these questions and more, step inside the pitch meeting that led to Dragonball Evolution! It’ll be super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Well I mean the guy who made dragon Ball evolution did apologize to dragon Ball fans because he did little to no research on this film and that's why he got so many things wrong like the only things that were right about the movie were the names and the fact that you needed seven dragon balls but then he didn't even use all seven dragon balls at the end of the movie he only used one and he got his wish lol

[@hazukichanx408]

"It used to be a mango" Yeah, that's definitely the level of knowledge of the relevant canon that was on display there. Another fine example of "Hey, there's this popular thing - let's take the name and slap it on an unrelated piece of Hollywood schlock with the very vaguest of thematic similarities. Maybe use the main protagonist's name, but even that is a very shaky "maybe" a lot of the time.

At this period of time Gokus power level would have been between 25 - 40 . Not very high . But in comparison to a full growth adult males power level only being about 5 I guess its pretty good .

[@pentelegomenon1175]

According to Wikipedia, mangoes are adapted to an elephant-like creature in India that went extinct long ago, and would have probably gone extinct with them if not for humans. Pickled mangoes were so popular in the American colonies that they were seen as the default thing to pickle, much like cucumbers today. They also were revered during the Chinese Cultural Revolution for supposedly containing Chairman Mao's essence. They're interesting.
