You're confusing Dragonball Z with Dragonball. Z was your typical shounen battle manga aimed at 6-14 year-olds. Dragonball on the other hand was a comedy manga with a little bit of fighting. They really could've made a great film, had they based it off Dragonball. Serves them right though for kicking Toriyama off set for wanting ' too much creative control '. It's his series for christsake!

I am praying this will be the film that starts the fall of 20th Century Fox. Then, they'll never be able to rape another iconic series ever again. Goddamn you Rupert Murdoch, goddamn you to hell.

Another idea:

A Legend of Zelda film would be great and all, but start it from the beginning.

= The Legend of Ganon =

The story starts out as a man is born into the Gerudo. This is an event that only occurs once every 100 years and by Gerudo law states he is to become King. The Gerudo witch Twinrova takes him in as his surrogate mother. From here we skip ahead to Ganon's late teenage years when he has no interest in becoming the King of the Gerudo, but instead just wants to go on adventures. After causing havoc in the Gerudo camp they send him on a goodwill mission to the Queen in a land to the East called Hyrule (in order to get rid of him for awhile). There it is ruled by the Queen Roza who's son's wife has just given birth to a baby girl named Zelda. Due to theological differences Ganon ends up making an ass of himself and by extension the Gerudo people sparking an intercultural incident and resulting in a war between the Gerudo and the Hylians. The war continues on and Ganon slowly becomes hardened by the war. He wants for more power and eventually teams up with Zelda's son, who furious with his mother's subjugation of other peoples, decides to take her down. Despite help from the Goddesses of the Triforce, Ganon and her son are successful. Ganon learning of the power of the Triforce grows power hungry and corrupt despite his alliance with the Hylian king. The film ends with the birth of Link and the prophecy.

Okay, here's one:
Custer's Revenge - Based off the terrible Atari game in which you are a man named General Custer and you engage in the simulated rape of a Native American woman.

Now, the film:

In the year 1878 as American colonialism spreads westward into the Arizona territory Native American women of the Apache tribe have started disappearing. Concerned, the Apache chiefs appoint a young man, Little Hawk, to track down and rescue the women. As he tracks them down he finds a settlement populated by white men. He hears screaming coming from the fort that is being constructed on the land and runs to investigate. There he sees a horrible vision. Women from Little Hawk's tribe are being kept as prisoners and used as sexual tools. He brazenly storms into the fort only to be stopped by white men guarding the house and is met by General Custer, the man who is the head of the settlement and the main cause of the capture and horrific fate of the women. Little Hawk is shot and nearly beaten to death. They toss him into the river only for him to survive. Upon Little Hawk's return home he tells all of what happened and a war is started between the Apache and the demented Custer's regime. The superior weaponry of Custer's men initially bests the Apache but it is Little Hawk's final battle and victory against Custer himself that ends up throwing his men into disarray and leading the Apache to victory and becoming the savior of the imprisoned women.

Alternatively:

The story could center around Custer himself. He's a dishonorably discharged general from the military who mans a fort in the Arizona desert. There he takes his rage, frustration, and damage he received while in the military out on Apache women and centers around a cycle of sexual violence and pure self-destruction as he commits these horrible atrocities on these women. Ultimately leading to him becoming paralyzed by the attacks of one of the captured women and a slow agonizing death from syphilis.
