Do you think any of the sagas could be into something like a movie?

[Fantastische Hure]

Like an Episode of Freeza or whatever.

I don't think it can be done, even if you gave it full 2 hours. You'd probably have to tweak and skip/rush a lot of things.

If you were to do one though, Boo Saga'd be the easiest. Since it's the simplest structure and a lot of stuff can be plain skipped anyway, without it affecting the story.

I'd think Cell Saga'd be the hardest, since there's a lot of material to get through and there's a lot of stuff that'd need to be explained like time-travel and things which you don't really a have time for.

If you could make any of the sagas into movies, what do you think'd have to be tweaked or skipped?

 

[Let's Go Fearless!]

Saiyan Arc with Goku defeating Vegeta should be enough for movie.

Saiyan Arc with Goku defeating Vegeta should be enough for movie.

I'm not saying only one fight, so if you think of that as the Saiyan Saga then from the beginning all the way to Vegeta fleeing, even-though I don't think of that as an entire saga. Funnily enough this is probably the one that can easily work as a movie, since it's quite straight-forward with mostly just fighting and training.

You could definitely adapt any arc into a two hour film, but they'd probably suffer due to the strict time constraints.

Cell Saga too? I mean there's too much I think. So much time-travel stuff to explain and fights to get through. You might have to tweak/change somethings too to get through the saga faster.

Yeah. You can condense the arc to a two hour film, but it will lose a lot in terms of quality. It'd have to go:

- Freeza arrives.
- Trunks arrives.
- Goku arrives.
- Androids arrive.

All within the first 20-35 minutes or so.

I feel like that can actually be done in half hour or even 20 minutes or so. Not really that much. The anime just kind-of dragged it, especially since they end episodes in suspense sometimes like who's this boy super-saiyan and then start the episode with the same thing.

But after that you'd have to still get through Cell and to the end. Maybe just skip #19 & #20 since they aren't really that important anyway.

Well the anime is paced for the television format. They have to create multiple 22 minute episodes, so they pace it as such, drag things on, add padding etc. The story will have to be completely re-constructed with the important moments and to cut out the fluff.

Battle of Gods and Super are kinda the reverse of this. BOG was the condensed version, and Super added all this fluff to better suit the anime episodic format.

All of these arcs have been adapted ad nauseam for video games with varying degrees of success, and they inevitably have to cut content to make it work. Imo, Legacy of Goku 2 was quite possibly the best example of taking an arc, trimming the fat and adapting it for gaming.

True. You are very intelligent on this.

If you were to do the Cell Saga, what'd you cut or tweak to make it work? I'd assume it'd seem rushed either-way.

I'd probably start it immediately with Freeza threatening the earth (perhaps a brief narration beforehand to add context) I'd make the promos fairly quick, and ideally have it take no longer than five minutes for the fight to be over. After that I'd probably cut 19/20 out entirely because they really aren't needed, and introduce Cell eariler than before.

Either way, a two or three hour film wouldn't really be enough to make the arc gr9. It would feel too rushed I think.

Agreed. You have a good handle on this. That was good.

I'm not just talking about a 1 fight but the entire fight of the arc. From battle against Raditz to Vegeta which can definitely fit in a movie with Goku defeating Vegeta at the end.

If it's a live action, then no.

DB Evolution was awesome! Such a unique movie! 2

 

[Fantastische Hure]

I didn't mean live-action just like a movie adaptation of the sagas.

 

[GSM123]

You know what would be cool? A DB movie on the same style as MoS.

I never watched that, but heard of it.
