Dragonball Gets a Ballsier New Title? It’s Evolution, Baby.

Dragonball: Evolution (2009) Movie — By Nix on December 5, 2008

The 20th Century Fox movie that everyone loves to hate may or may not have gotten a new title, according to the latest rumor hashing on the Interwebs. If the title change is confirmed, then the new movie title that anime geeks will be spitting out with all the hate they can muster won’t just be “Dragonball”, but rather, “Dragonball: Evolution”. Yes, they’ve added the “Evolution” to the title, probably because it sounds a lot more “evolutionary” than just having “Dragonball” in the title. See, and you thought the people making this movie lacked creativity. How wrong you were! Ahem. Moving on.

This absolutely and utterly fascinating title change comes to you courtesy of Comingsoon:

20th Century Fox may have extended the title of its upcoming “Dragon Ball” adaptation to Dragonball Evolution. If it’s indeed the new title the studio is going with, we should find out for sure soon.

Then they added this little tidbit later on in the day:

UPDATE: 20th Century Fox has also registered the domain name DragonballEvolutionmovie.com, which currently takes you to FoxMovies.com.

See, “Dragonball” haters? This’ll show you!

Below: “Oh, Dragonball, why must you tease me so with your name changes and what not?”

    nice. I’m sure they made this change so the stupid people will know that this is not dragonball or dragonball z or dragonball gt.

    this DBE! so stop complainin gokus not a kid, or not buff, or no vegeta or etc.

    all that matters is that theres an ass kickin spikey haired guy. which is the only thing that is constant in the whole series XD…

    oh yeah, and the balls too, don’t forget the balls :P

    the point for changing the title is so that stupid people will know this is not dragonball, dragonball z or dragonball gt.
    so they stop complaining about why goku is not a kid, or that hes not muscular or theres no vegeta etc.
    this is DBE people! so quit whinin, its still about an asskickin spikey haired guy looking for shiny orange balls. thats what count.

    look at the dark knight, everythin was changed cept for the guy in a bat suit fightin crime. and yet it was awesome even thought everything, from costume color, background story etc. was changed.

    At least this way it doesn’t have anything to do anything and can go whatever direction it wants.

  • Priverson says:

    Why don’t they take out the “Dragonball” and every character name associated with the series instead? Then everyone will be happy and people won’t boycott

  • ssj4sonnino says:

    The Dragonballs dont activate by themselves, you have to collect all seven before they start glowing and floating.

    THIS MOVIE WILL BE HORRIBLE I GUESS, IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ORINGINAL DRAGONBALL Z AND THIS JUST MAKES ME VERY ANGRY THAT THE STORY IS MIXED UP AND THE CHARACTER ARE HORRIBLE.

    wow i cant belive they actualy put the name dragon ball infront of this title who the hell are the three guys at the begining of the kami is the one who created the dragon balls not the wired guys from some unown place this is sooo upsetting that they are actually calling this dragon ball i dont even want to see this movie because master roshi was a perverted white guy with a long white beared that always tried to put his head and hands where they dont belong and goku wasnt some skinny white kid this is soooooooooooooooooooooo a discrace to the dragon ball creators

  • Guyver says:

    The movie was good in itself.
    And was aptly named Evolution.
    However they should have changed the names of some of the characters to reflect that it was not close to canon.
    It would have been better if it was closer to the true storyline.
    Alas , it was the artists vision.
