For the past few months, Captain Marvel has been compared
rummy noble to Dragon Ball. Now that the film is out, those comparisons keep on coming. Since the trailers hit, there have not only been comparisons between Captain Marvel and Goku, but also between the Skrulls and the Piccolo in the live-action adaptation Dragon Ball Evolution

“Captain Marvel with a hint of Dragon Ball Z” Can’t wait for this movie🙌🏾 @brielarson 338 / 365 #365project #captainmarvel #avengers #thanos pic.twitter.com/JciXVN2JTd — Jobe Anderson (@Jobeus3000) December 4, 2018 For those
rummy satta who have seen and enjoyed Captain Marvel, the movie seems to show that a live-action Dragon Ball is possible, with calls for Marvel Studios to make it. Actually, that makes sense. Marvel Studios has proven it can take comic source material and turn it into successful cinema.
However, doing a live-action version of a manga presents an array of challenges, both cultural and stylistic that open the film and its filmmakers
rummy star up to criticism that might not exist for Marvel’s own comic adaptations. https://twitter.com/embed/status/1104263022296612864 This trailer confirms that with the right budget an epic Dragon Ball Z movie is possible 🤞🏽 #CaptainMarvel #DBZ pic.twitter.com/UFk1h7oGRc — Emkay (@emkay1471) January 8, 2019 Captain Marvel: Hey can I copy your homework? DragonBall Evolution: Yeah just change it up a bit so it doesn't look obvious you copied. Captain Marvel: OK. — levitating corpse (@mind_funeral) March 8, 2019 https://twitter.com/embed/status/1099960464669171712 Way before Captain Marvel, James Marsters was the original Skrull In Dragonball Evolution! pic.twitter.com/l0w7mCm8dQ — Jack

So are (gross live action)Namekians & Skrulls distantly related cousins? pic.twitter.com/HlmTuC6K6V — kevin.🤖 (@KevinCaldwell_) March 9, 2019 https://twitter.com/embed/status/1105206861979111430 I know it's never good to be compared to
