You heard that right. Deadline has reported that in just 2 days after premiering on Tuesday the 4th, that Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F was able to gross over $3.75 million on it’s first 2 days of opening. It should be noted this is a lot considering that the movie is being shown in less than 900 theaters and only has 1 showtime per day. Furthermore, it’s a little embarrassing for this weeks Fantastic 4 Reboot. Expected to originally make $50 million  during the weekend, it looks like the film and Fox themselves are in for a rude awakening as they only managed to make an abysmal $2.7 million on opening day. Will you be seeing Resurrection F this week? It should be noted that we actually reviewed Resurrection F a couple of months back and enjoyed it despite a couple of odd things with the film. Are you going to watch Resurrection F this week?

 

Finally, the new Dragon Ball series Dragon Ball Super is nearly here. The series will premiere on July 5, 2015 on  the Japanese Fuji TV. The new series takes place a few years after the defeat of Majin Buu, when the Earth has become peaceful once again. This will be the first new TV series since (the lame) Dragon Ball GT, which aired from 1996-1997.

Since news hit about the upcoming series I started to re-watch all the films and the series Dragon Ball Kai. I have fond memories of rushing home from school to watch the show on Toonami and some of my friends getting the bootleg tapes  from Chinatown and exchanging them with each other.
