Casting aside, how would you actually go about adapting live action Dragon Ball? Which Sagas?
Personally I think the Demon King Piccolo saga would adapt really well as long as they age up Goku closer to his DBZ iteration. Make the plot more closely revolve around searching for and finding the Dragonballs to bring back everyone Piccolo has killed. Pic related would make an awesome climax and would leave plenty of room open for a sequel adapting the Sayan saga
Some kind of prequel about the past Saiyans conquering planets, they can cast whoever they want without any problem, no cringe interactions in the "real world", plus with the current "Man of Steel" CGI they could achieve great visuals, I would mind seeing a Vegeta type character destroying entire civilizations on random planets.

>No dragon balls
Could be cool, but no way this would interest most general audiences

I liked the Piccolo design from the movie, and frankly I would do the exact thing the movie did with him: replace Pilaf with Piccolo. Then you just make a loose adaptation of the first part of the manga without romance or teen drama shit.

Special effects in any live action I've ever seen are always so cheap and unrealistic looking, doesn't help this serie has a huge light ray as iconic attack.

No one give a fuck about the dragon balls you autist, they are nothing more than a plot device now.

>now
they always were
1st film : remake of that 1996 remake film
2nd film: Piccolo Daimaoh until arrival of Raditz
3rd: Raditz until Vegeta fight and possibly arriving to Namek
4th: Namek Saga

Literally the only important plot device
They already nailed it with Evolution.

Demon king piccolo would probably work best out of all the sagas, they could do the world tournament as a sequel even. I still don't think that it would be successful

I mean, Path to Power works pretty well as a story. Pilaf seems kind of simple and episodic. Red Ribbon and King Piccolo can work well, and King Piccolo can easily lead to Majunior.

I wouldn't. DB is one of the worst series to make a live action one out of. Hell most battle shounen are.
