James Marsters just let the world know that there will be a Dragonball Evolution sequel.  You know what makes this worse?  That Marsters isn't just ruining my anime-infused teen years any more, oh no.  He (or rather the producers of this HORRIFIC film) are no ruining all parts of my life.  I can no longer enjoy Billy Idol songs.  Thanks.

is the same guy as:

which has now ruined this for me:

Bonus points: if anyone can name the Buffy episode where Spike claims to have met and inspired Billy Idol, I will give you a cupcake.

 

So...this one's new.

I'll admit to having watched both Dragon Ball and it's sequel/sister series Dragon Ball Z when I was younger and Toonami on Cartoon Network didn't make me weep. And it was on in the afternoon so it couldn't play Cowboy BeBop because kids would OF COURSE start running around pretending they had cybernetic arms and knew jeet kun do. And yes, Toonami does make me weep big fat tears now when I do see it, which means when I crash at my parents' house and can't sleep late enough at night that it's kinda sad. Because I miss the days when Gundam (not Gundam Wing, but the ORIGINAL Gundam) and the Knights of the Zodiac were on EVERY DAY and I could watch Outlaw Star to my heart's content and do my French homework while eating something I knew I shouldn't have. And my thirteen-year-old self was happy.

But that's besides the point. Dragon Ball Evolutionhit theaters on my birthday over a week ago (the 10th, for those of you who don't know...thanks for the cards). I haven't seen it yet, but judging by the cast and the fact that it is NOT A CARTOON I'm guessing it won't be as awesome tediously full of power-ups awesome as the cartoon was. Because there is NOTHING BETTER than watching a weird, 'roids-pumped dude scream that he's REACHING LEVEL GOOGLEPLEX and GONNA BE A SUPER SEIYAN SAYAJIN SAIYAN (again) and then his hair goes all blond and 'splodey and it's fun.

Yes, I know it's inane and kinda stupid, but the show is just fun. There's no reason to say otherwise, even if it were to protect my reputation. But this is just hilarious.

Thanks to I09

The French have held a funeral for Goku because us stupid Americans ruined it.

Seriously. I can't make this stuff up. Just look at the LOSS on those poor Frenchboy's faces. What can we do to make them feel better? Maybe we should start making YRMC trophies...whoever cries the most wins?
