Oh Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy!

I am super excited. Scratch that...ecstatic! It is roughly 27 days until Dragonball: Evolution (Live action) comes out in theaters. I know it seems odd for me to be hyperventilating over a Japanese Anime turned to a movie, But I so love Dragonball Z! Like I mentioned in an earlier posting, John introduced me to DBZ when we were dating and was instantly hooked for life. I prefer to watch it in it's original Japanese dialogue since when they (Funimation) translated it into english, they dumbed it down and made it for kids. That is also partly the reason why I fell out of it just before Ivy was born...I got so tired of waiting for more episodes to be released!! Also, I incorrectly thought that since I was becoming a mother, I had to give up 'childish' things. So now I've jumped, or lets say canon-balled back into it and watching the whole series over again. Now for the movie...I'm holding out high hopes that the film makers do a good job on this. I'm comforted by how well the Spiderman and Xmen movies turned out...but scared by how the first Hulk movie sucked. But so far it looks like they've done their homework. I've read that Justin Chatwin (Goku) read the entire manga (comic book) to get a good grip on his Character. I just wish the makeup artist went a little bit bigger with Goku's hair----------> and just why isn't it black as it's supposed to be?? I understand some liberties will be taken (like changing Bulma's blue hair to brunet with blue streaks) but Goku's? There aught to be a law... Anyhoo...It's plain to see that I'm obsessed right? I wonder if there's a DBZ-A meeting near by...
