Career


Ramsey began his career in Hollywood in 1996 when he wrote the Mark Wahlberg feature, The Big Hit for Sony Pictures. He would later go on to write Dragonball Evolution for 20th Century Fox.

Most recently he directed the short film Black Salt for Ratti Entertainment and his own company Ramcity Productions.


Dragonball Evolution


In 2016, Ramsey issued a public apology for the film, claiming the film "marked a very painful creative point in my life". He writes: "To have something with my name on it as the writer be so globally reviled is gut wrenching. To receive hate mail from all over the world is heartbreaking. (...) I went into the project chasing after a big payday, not as a fan of the franchise but as a businessman taking on an assignment. I have learned that when you go into a creative endeavor without passion you come out with sub-optimal results, and sometimes flat out garbage. So I’m not blaming anyone for Dragonball but myself."[1]
