Hi guys, sorry I haven’t been keeping up with the latest in Dragonball news, but I haven’t really been motivated since the Dragonball movie and having other stuff to do in non-Internet land. But luckily, there are still a few people that can happily keep you entertained once or twice a month with high quality content. And I know I’m probably late to the party on these, but hopefully this is news to some of you.
TeamFourStar, a parody team that was previously banned from YouTube for their Dragonball Z parodies, appear to be back in full force on their original channel (www.youtube.com/TeamFourStar) with a couple new episodes to boot. TeamFourStar is very unique in the sense that they feature professional editing and good scripts. So definitely be sure to check them out a couple times a month if you don’t already.
WeeklyTubeShow is also a great YouTube channel for Dragonball Z parodies, and what sets them apart from the crowd is their great voice acting and uncut, uncompromising dick jokes. And a lot more too. Visit them at their new channel: www.youtube.com/WeeklyTubeShow2. And subscribe to them too, they deserve a billion fans!
And finally, for those who need to have every single piece of Dragonball news, big or tiny, DBLegends.com is still kickin’ with crazy dedication. We aren’t claiming they’re the best (daizex is good too), but if you want up to date coverage on anything even slightly resembling Dragonball, I can’t think of any other website.
This post is not to say we’re abandoning you, but if you haven’t already noticed we aren’t as committed as some other fansites. We can admit that, and we don’t feel there’s any shame in stepping down and letting others take over (not completely, mind you). Hopefully, Dragonball will remain for years to come. And on that note, good night.
This is going to be a short update, as there really is nothing new to report on and I’m sure most of you have moved on from Dragonball: Evolution.
I, along with probably everyone else, haven’t heard any concrete news surrounding any future sequels or remakes for Dragonball: Evolution. Fox is clearly trying to move on for the time being. Whether or not this is unfortunate is up to you.
If there ever is a reboot, or a legitimate sequel that at least tries to improve on the original, I will do my best to update you in some way. As of now however, there’s really nothing new that’s worth getting your hopes up for.
Dragonball: Evolution made money, yes, but only enough to justify the one film. But maybe we’ll just have to wait and see…?
Dragonball: Raging Blast hits stores today for the Xbox 360 and PS3. Of course, I don’t know how it can compete with Modern Warfare 2, Dragon Age, and the upcoming Super Mario Bros. game for Wii, but I might pick it up when the price drops.
If you don’t want to own yet another Dragonball fighting game, Dragonball Z: Attack of the Saiyans also comes out today for the Nintendo DS. It’s far cheaper and probably far more enjoyable, at least if you already own Tenkaichi 3 or Budokai 3.
