CATDOLL: The screenwriter of the Hollywood version of "Dragon Ball" apologized to fans after many years and said that he wrote the script for money

The Hollywood movie "Dragon Ball" released in 2009 received a lot of bad reviews as soon as it was released. Although the fighting special effects were gorgeous, it lost the spirit of the original work and became a typical American youth drama. This work not only made Dragon Ball fans very dissatisfied, but also disappointed the original author Akira Toriyama. However, 7 years after the movie was released, the screenwriter of the movie "Dragon Ball" Ben Ramsey finally officially stood up and apologized to Dragon Ball fans.

Recently, a writer interviewed the screenwriter of the film, Ben Ramsey. Ramsey himself also reviewed his mistakes through this interview and issued a public apology in the form of text. The full text is as follows:

"I knew this day would come. Dragon Ball was the biggest stain on my life as a creator. I was also dubbed the worst screenwriter in the world, which tore my heart apart. I still receive emails from all over the world accusing me, and I feel very sad.

Over the years, I have thought about shifting the blame, but I wrote all the words in the script. I am solely responsible for disappointing many fans. I tried my best to do it well, but I still messed it up. I did not write the script as a fan of Dragon Ball, but as a businessman who only wanted a huge paycheck. I know that if I force myself to do something I am not passionate about, I will not be able to produce a good work, and it may even become complete garbage .

The blame is not on others, it's all my fault. I understand the fans' feelings of seeing their beloved and anticipated works made into such a bad thing, because I am also a fan of other works.

I would like to express my deepest apologies to all the fans of Dragon Ball."

It is very rare for Hollywood talents to apologize for their work, and it is even more unheard of that Ramsey himself directly admitted in his apology that he wrote the script for money. His sincerity and honesty have also been generally recognized by fans. One fan said: "I can accept this apology. Although it has been 7 years, it still takes courage to apologize so sincerely. I hope this failed work can teach him a lesson and he can make truly amazing works in the future."

Some fans think that he is not an exception in terms of motivation: "He said that he is a businessman who only pursues huge rewards. The same problem exists in the animation industry, the game industry, the voice actor industry... and other industries. Just do your own work with love, and the fans have sharp eyes." Some fans think that from the perspective of film production, he should not bear the blame alone: ​​"The responsibility should not be just on the screenwriter... After all, there are many people involved in film production, and I don't think he needs to bear all the faults alone." Anyway, it is not easy to finally stand up and apologize, so fans will accept it.
