Badass DRAGON BALL Z: LIGHT OF HOPE Live Action Short
There's a Dragon Ball Z project that has been in development called "Dragon Ball Z: Light of Hope." It was created by obotUnderdog2, and it's a Machinima production. This short film is basically a pilot episode for a web-series that they hope to launch, and it is freakin' awesome! Seriously, I was blown away by the badassery of this thing, and I think fans of the franchise are going to completely geek out over what they see! It's way better than the crappy movie that was released back in 2009. These guys put a lot of work into this pilot, and I hope that it isn't the last thing we see of it. I seriously got chills watching the main fight sequence in this thing. Here's the synopsis:
Hope is worth fighting for. In Dragon Ball Z: Light of Hope, Gohan and Trunks fight against the unstoppable Androids #17 and #18 and try to save as many human lives as possible. The young Trunks must grow up quickly and learn from his mentor, Gohan; but with battles to fight on both the outside and inside, how long can they endure, and where will they find a light of hope? Subscribe, support and share if you want to see more episodes!
This series is an adaptation of “The History of Trunks” TV Special. In this timeline, Goku and the other Z Warriors are dead. This is the story of Gohan and Trunks in their battle to survive against the Androids.
This is what the filmmakers are hoping to accomplish with the series:
"Our goal is to bring the Dragon Ball world to life in a way that's never been done before, while staying true to the characters and story. We want to use this episode as leverage to make more episodes for this web series and other projects. So please help us out by sharing, commenting and liking! The more support we have, the more likely we are to do more Dragon Ball Z. We want to keep making DBZ content, and that’s only possible with your help!"
I'm going to watch the short again now. Check it out for yourself below!
