The other two are probably this one, and FOX's version.

Yes, there is another version from Taiwan: http://blog.livedoor.jp/textsite/archives/50172112.html

Most characters look more faithful to their cartoon countparts, than FOX's version:

there is a new Dragon Ball movie coming out in 2009 and its suppose to be really good and faithful to the anime and one of the actors is the guy who plays Ando in Heroes and another is the guy who plays Spike in the Buffy series and Brainiac in the Smallville series

Were did you get the really good and faithful to the anime thing? Do you have any idea what youre talking about?

Haha yeah REAL faithful lol. That kid has no idea what he's talking about. The new one looks like crap, especially since it has the same director as the Final Destination movies (not exactly quality cinema)

If you're looking to see this Magic Begins version of DB, you can find it on Netflix. Not only do I recommend Netflix in general, but even if you just wanna see one movie like this, you can sign up for a trial and whatnot, then just cancel.

Ando wasn't in the film and it sucks big style.

Which version is better? The 1993 or the new one released by FOX in 2007. It says they've remastered it and added special effects. I wonder if they ruined the movie though.

There is this version, Dragonball Evolution and a Korean version.

Here is a poster for the Korean movie: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Korean_Dragon_Ball_1990_Film_Poster.PNG

Here it is: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1608208/. I found it when I looked at the Dragon Ball wiki,
http://dragonball.wikia.com/wiki/Dragon_Ball_%281990_Korean_Film%29.

Dragonball: Evolution might be crap, but it seems like enjoyable crap to me. The Korean one looks like a fan film, but some fan films are way better than "real" (i.e. made for profit) films. The Taiwan one, Dragon Ball: The Magic Begins, seems to have a bigger budget (at least its imdb page is more fleshed out), but it has an even lower rating than the Korean (3.8 and 4.1 resp.).

I've since seen MAGIC BEGINS, and that is enjoyable crap as well. Funny, the grandpa looks like a lesbian, and his english voice sounds similar to the english voice of the witch in the Finnish film, JACK FROST. Might help if you've seen the MST3K version of JF.

Still have not see the Korean one though.
