As we all knew, the atrocious Dragonball Evolution movie brutally slaughtered beloved anime hero Goku and then humped his corpse as it cooled. A few French fans took it upon themselves to hold a small service for the Saiyan, who had defeated so many other enemies, yet was powerless against 20th Century Fox. The above footage of the funeral is moving, to say the least. Oh, for those keeping score at home, that makes two awesome and nerdy things the French have done in the last week. (Via Japanator)

The fucking song from Donnie Darko totally nailed it for me. Hilarious.
I think I'm going to start drinking right now so I can hopefully black out before Heroes is on tonight.

I like how someone belched during the interview at the beginning.

We could always try to wish Goku back to life with the Dragon Balls, but I don't think he'd want to show his face now.

That's about how I feel about the whole situation.

I would have imagined the hardcore fans would have ignored the meer idea of this movie from day #1, and devote more resources to watching Kai!

I love how they walked to the movie theater and place the flowers in front of the movie poster. Classic.
I wish I'd thought of that. I think everyone should do that at their local theaters. That's one way to get our message across.
"People across the world laid flowers in front of theaters as they mourned the death of Goku due to the brutal murder done by 20th Century Fox. This is CNN and there will more on that after the break."

If there is gonna be a sequel, then clearly they can remedy the silliness of the first movie.
Call it Dragonball Z
Set it years after the first movie.
Goku and Chi Chi are married. Yes, marry them.
Introduce Vegeta.
Bring Piccolo over to the good side.
Give it a better budget, sell it as the greatest thing since sliced bread and maybe you can get salvation. Then the French won't be so annoying with their insensitive fake funerals.

Don't worry. If Dragonball Z has taught me anything, it's that death is completely and utterly meaningless.
