Dragonball: Evolution.

Yeah, I forced myself to sit through this shitshow. All it did, was solidify my opinion that animation to live action anime adaptations are garbage and will forever be garbage and I will not care how fondly you think some live adaptation of an anime is done.

The last fight sequence of the movie, was nothing but CGI glittery dust being spat between characters, they couldn't be bothered to make actual ki beams. And they had the audacity to think that they'd be successful enough to warrant another film?

Tool's Fear Inoculum. I wasn't really wow'ed by this album. 13 years since 10,000 days and we got this. Just because every song was 10+ minutes long (save for one and it's a joke song. and excluding the Digital version), doesn't mean it was good. But because people waited so long for another Tool album, they just accepted it.

The One Piece Live Action proves that it can work somehow. Before that, plenty of live action version produced in Japan has decent reputation, like the Rurouni Kenshin and Death Note series. On the western side, Alita Battle Angel and Speed Racer was also received well.

I dunno, live-action Fullmetal Alchemist was pretty ass.

The only good thing about Dragonball Evolution was that it was so bad that it brought Akira Toriyama out of retirement.

I still can't understand why the live action Avatar: The Last Airbender exists.
