faces look passable.. (what's up with Spike's cheekbones??) But the real trouble comes from other physique.. I mean these guys are ment to be ridiculously ripped. Kind of muscles that're able to destroy planets with a swing of a fist. Both of them look rather slim. Still I've been waiting for this so long. Looks like it's really coming!
This movie seriously has potential to be the funniest movie ever created.
This just got a new skin, it's been announced that Stephen Chow is producing. Which is a big 'WHAT', but this is the guy behind Kung Fu Hustle, Shoulin Soccer, and many other films.Man this could be great haha
I'm not sure what to expect anymore.

Horrible... This is gonna upset the hordes of DBZ fans everywhere...
Horrible... This is gonna upset the hordes of DBZ fans everywhere... Bad choice of actors as well, this is gonna royally suck ass...How could there be such a thing as bad choice of actors for DBZ??
I think the "OVER 9000!!!" scene is going to be hilarious will real people.No, I don't think the movie covers that Saga. Piccolo is the villain?
Man this could be great haha
Why did you compare this to Snakes on a plane? Makes no sense.. I don't see any link between the two. There's no sign that they would make this intentionally non-intentionally funny? Stephen Chow in, I have high hopes for this. As comedy yes, but not in a sense as Snakes on a plane.Because dragon ball z is the worst shit in the world. It doesn't matter who makes it; almost everyone knows it's going to be terrible shit. Most people just hope it'll be REALLY FUNNY so they're hyping it. Exactly like with snakes on a plane, which turned out to just be terrible and not funny at all... which is probably how this will be.
Yeah what saga is this movie going to be set in? I would love to see a live action freeza
I can see them turning this one into a trilogy easily. First movie: random BS filler with a couple insignigant fights, introducing the villian late in the movie. Number two: fighters train for battle. more insignifigant fights, Goku dies, dragon balls get collected. Movie three: Goku is revived, but the others must stall the villian until he arrives to charge his ki for about an hour and use the spirit bomb to kill the villian, more stupid filler, new villian arrives. All three movies would have to be at least three hours or more.I think more likely, all three movies cover a single fight. And not even a significant one like Goku vs. Piccolo. It's going to be six hours of Yamcha vs. Emperor Pilaf or something.
Really makes me wonder how I was ever a diehard DBZ fan when I look back at the flow of the show.
This movie seriously has potential to be the funniest movie ever created.
lmao why would they have to be asian
By the way revolution, it's common for actors to train for their role in any given movie. People aren't hired for BEING JACKED dude. do you seriously think every musclebound guy in a movie has looked like that his entire life? also none of the characters look asian at all besides like krillin, and having extensive training in martial arts won't help anyone fire a kamehameha. ugh wait why did I respond to that post
Anyway, I'll probably see this regardless. this'll probably be pretty big when it finally comes around, and unlike transformers or other recent live-action films, almost no one expects this shit to be good
How unintentionally funny it could be will probably be the only redeeming value of the movieYou ..g-genius. :fogetgasp:
I can see myself paying money to see a live action dragonball movie
EDIT:
cast not casted
Goku wasmt super buff in DB though (yes DB this movie doesn't technically take place in Dragonball Z but in Dragon ball when Piccolo first arrives).Maybe not super buff, but super ripped. Besides Goku was like 99% of the time a little kid in original DB.
Oh, right, now I understand that SnakesOnAPlane comparison, yes yes. I agree.
Maybe not super buff, but super ripped. Besides Goku was like 99% of the time a little kid in original DB.
I agree that these guys don't need to be asian, since Goku, Piccolo, etc. are mostly from space anyways. But martial arts training is very important for anywhere close fluent fighting. Yes, it's possible to train for these roles, but it won't come off naturally without some real history with the art. Good example is Matrix, with Neo's uber kung-fu skills... ... ...
This movie directed by Stephen Chow sounds like it could be sick as hell but all it needs now is Morgan Freeman playing the role of Vegeta.HA! Morgan Freeman screaming 9000!
:ssj: FUCK YES! :ssj: The rumor started up a month or two ago but I put no stock into them! Here's hoping they do a good job. I really bet it will suck hard, but I won't complain if they surprise me. Here's a forum dedicated to the news on it for those of you whodon'tcare (I'm the only one who does right?)
http://z9.invisionfree.com/liveactionanime/index.php?showtopic=130
I'm looking forward to the special effects. They better be damn awesome.
A month or two ago? Try ten years, dude.
If it's gonna be in the DB saga as opposed to Z, it might actually be a good movie period. Plain DB was actually a pretty good series... It's later that it became retarded.
also none of the characters look asian at all besides like krillin
and no "OVER 9000!!!" scenes.
Just what the fuck IS "over 9000"?
Im sorry, but I fail to see whats so funny about that.
street fighter the movie is seriously fantastic
Im sorry, but I failExactly.

Bulma Cast?!?!?They are seriously going through with this... The movie industry is trying to take everything and turn it into a live-action movie. Maybe the GamingW forums will get a movie!

Oolong - Danny DavitoThese three caught my attention... That would be extremely funny.
Roshi - Chuck Norris like someone stated earlier
Krillin - Bobby Lee
These three caught my attention... That would be extremely funny.
This had better have the highest special effects budget, like, ever! With the bright balls of light and crazy ass explosions and flying. Damn... That's a good $100,000.
it wouldn't really be that funny to see shittily made dbz.

Wow, I always thought Goku was older and well, super ripped lol.
http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-2274
Chow Yun Fat joins the cast. *dies*
..then they have to cast some emo fag no muscle queer as goku.Some people take this very seriously.. :)
They're doing to Dragon Ball what they did to Hitman.
Keeping the names, but butchering a story.
Yet they still butcher it..
Actually the main thing DB had going were it's characters and that's what they're butchering!
But I don't care, I never expected this to be very accurate. I'm just hoping this will be cheesy over-the-top anime action movie. Unfortunaly I'm afraid this won't come true either.. This will propably be similar to something like Spider-man.. which is no good.
The thing is that if they followed the original story spot-on, this would really be one of the greatest movies ever!
EDIT: 600! :woop:
Adding new characters to something doesn't make it bad. Look at Chloe in Smallville. Chloe has/had NOTHING to do with the Superman mythos, yet she's one of, if not the, best characters on the show.chloe probably was the best nut in that particular turd, yes.

It was on the end of page three.That's the thing. I looked at the end of page 3 and it said "Update:" and that's it. No image, no text.... :shrug:

I heard this movie had a hundred million dollar budget. It's transformers all over again.

Why sorry Kaworu?
Um, the character of Goku, an important character to play, uh, been around on kid's cartoons for a while, uh, so I hope I do a good job.
I'd like it if these 'updates' were edited into the first post instead of me having to look all over for them.It's 4 pages and really not that hard to find. Kid.

I enjoyed the Hitman movie.
Good thing is that it's not Dragon Ball without Kamehameha! So seeing the ridiculousness of live-action ki-blast is already worth the money!!That is so true. Some guy some screaming while special effects fly out of his hand...
But damn! Someone seriously needs to put this out of its misery.No, because whether you like it or not, it WILL make a profit.
Dammit I saw "Ghostbusters" and was hoping Rick Moranis would be in it.
Ahah! Those are horrible, I never could have told they're from DB-movie apart from that kame-uniform. This looks more like Mortal Kombat. Who is that guy in that orange-gi anyway? It's not Chatwin, is it? and why is that costume made that way? In Dragon Ball it's just normal orange-gi with normal wristbands and kung-fu shoes, but apparently they had to make it cool. I suppose that blue shirt underneath weights hundreds of kilos as in the show.
Can't wait for Dragon Ball: The Movie: The Game!!
This should smash your hopes for a good movie. It did mine.
Why? Just more of GW's movie elitism?
I will still see it just because it will probably so TOTALLY RIDICULOUS that I will get some good laughs out of it.
this shit looks so gay. honestly it is probably the worst looking movie i've ever seen. it doesn't resemble dragonball at all and why is goku like 25.
Man, when this comes out I am going to see this with all of my friends, it's going to be hilarious.This is one of the reasons shit like Epic Movie still managed to make enough money to warrant another.
"It is a dumb attempt by Hollywood in making a kung fu action movie which in this case happened to use the names of the manga Dragonball even though it has nothing similar."
This is one of the reasons shit like Epic Movie still managed to make enough money to warrant another.
Piccolo shows up at a tournament doesn't he? I was so sure Goku was still a kid at that stage.
Actually wait, I'm thinking of his previous incarnation.
Mario Bros.
I know this movie is terrible, let me get that out of the way. Godawful. Would not pay for it in any form.
But it misses the mark so fucking widely that I have to give it credit. I realize RUN LEFT TO RIGHT 32 TIMES doesn't translate well onto screen, but making it a cyberpunk-ish science-fiction action comedy? That enters some brave new world of fucking-it-uppery.
Wait... Maybe... Maybe the Mario Bros movie is extremely accurate! Maybe that's what the Mushroom Kingdom really looks like when you're not eating shrooms all day.
This website, http://www.dragonballmovieblog.net/ , is much better for info, and that picture is just supposed to be "test". Test of what, they don't say, but I fucking hope it's to test just how angry it will make fans if that is their representation of Oozaro.

Yup, movie makers will spend thousands just to annoy nerds. Nothing enjoys expensive studios more than flushing money down the drain.See, the bits in bold were actually a very good post, it's just the rest is pretty stupid (and the follow-up).
It's a test to see how the prosphetics look on camera/film. It's a final design (and looks consciderably more interesting than some lame monkey) and they ain't gunna change it apart from minor cosmetics. Deal with it.
"fans" aren't the audience for this movie. The general public are, if a movie of any franchise was made to please it's fans it'd be the worst box office failure in history. Look at Transformers, look at Dark Knight, look at the upcomming G.I. Joe movie. Stuff gets changed to make it appeal to a wider audience. Very few people would take the idea of a stupid monkey being some ultra-powerful being as a serious concept, even for a movie based on dbz it would lose all credibility.
(http://gamingw.net/pubaccess/25591/goku_monster.jpg)lmao wtf is this and what does it have to do with dragonball?
http://kotaku.com/5082586/what-the-hell-is-this-goku-monster
dude the transformers fans threw a major spaz when the designs were changed and they didn't look retro. Batman fans initially spat out their gamerfuel bars when they saw Heath Ledger's joker look nothing like a clown, G.I. Joe fans cried little sick tears into their kfc buckets when stormshadow was revealed wearing modern attire instead of a gi outfit. american godzilla fans nearly commited suicide when godzilla was released in 97.
These kind of superficial changes happen all the time because some ideas don't always work. Regardless of speical effects when someone turns into a monkey... they turn into a monkey. That isn't what the average moviegoer wants unless it's a comedy film(and any comedy film with that premise is a shit comedy film, but will end up selling millions because people are dumb and think anything with monkeys in is hilarious). They want sleak and sexy, they want modern.
you are both pretty stupid.

Basically, to explain a little. I'm not into Revolutionary Road, I don't think it's got what it takes to win Best Picture/Director, it just doesn't seem strong enough. Same with DiCaprio with Best Actor, there are far more stronger performances around. I'm getting the feeling soon The Wrestler will start to rise up for the big stakes, the trailer is now out and it does look fantastic. It's uncontroversial, very American and is getting some pretty sweet response already. Waltz with Bashir is in three different categories because it could go generally anywhere. People (like Mark Kermode) are insisting that it goes in the Best Picture category, breaking down this whole animation/film situation. It could easily go in foreign film too. I get the feeling Milk and Benjamin Button will find their way to the Best Picture category, though The Reader looks really great.
Best Actor, Mickey Rourke should win this, but both Benecio Del Toro and Sean Penn are giving amazing performances. DiCaprio is there because it will probably be there, and Brad Pitt might just turn up for his aging role. Supporting Actor is really really unlucky for Philip Seymour Hoffman who looks amazing in Doubt, but Heath Ledger is standing tall on that category. Brolin well deserves a spot too. Clooney was a bit of a joke addition, but it wouldn't surprise me if he did turn up.
Best Actress probably goes to Kate Winslet. Supporting Actress, the lamest category of them all, I just gave up on the final two and stole some from Strangeluv's list but I chose Kathy Bates, without any form of visual proof of her performance, just because she probably deserves another Oscar right about now.
Best Animation probably Wall-E, I doubt that even if Waltz with Bashir was in the category that it could beat the power of Wall-E. And finally, Foreign Film would hopefully go to Italy's Gomorrah, just because it's plain awesome.
I know you're probably going to reject most of this, with your crazy formulas for the Oscars and all that, but yeah. Just my thoughts. It's another pretty sweet year for films. Javier Bardem might creep in somewhere.
That trailer was absolutely horrible.This, and the overuse of CGI, shitty sound effects and wire work. I'm not really a fan of any anime but when I heard this movie was coming out I decided to look up some info so I would know what the fuck this is supposed to be and from my little understanding.. Didn't some guy like Piccolo make the Dragonballs not monks at a temple? And did he always have an airship, I thought Goku could fly and stuff?

At least it has some a couple of good looking woman in it.
If you visit ANY site dedicated to this movie you will find that we are REALLY FUCKING EXCITED. There's a bunch of tiny shit that I'm not going to bother explaining, but one way or the other, for the most part, it is staying true to the general idea behind the story. But, being honest, you'd have to be a pretty hard fan to know how it correlates.
You guys do realise that they have a Dragonball Z sequel planned, right?
I so hope they do the Over 9000 in the sequel, that would be hilarious.
Wikipedia isn't the most trustworthy source out there.
I honestly don't think the trailer looks bad. It does look like a generic summer movie, but it's not the WORST LOOKING MOVIE EVER that some of you are making it seem. It's clear some money was put into the project, the CGI scenes look great to me.
My shitty taste in movies aside.....this movie is based off of a stupid, over the top, ridiculous Japanese anime, and Dragon Ball no less, the poster child for stupid, ridiculous, over the top Japanese anime. What were you expecting? The trailer would look MUCH WORSE if it was 100% faithful to the anime, which, from my memory, was largely pretty bad (endless series of episodes with absolutely nothing happening).
The movie definitely looks like Transformers mixed with random kung fu, but other than that, I don't see what the outrage is about.
man I'm pretty sure this enitre topic is people saying this movie is shit and then getting off topic entirely because this movie isn't worth a shit to even talk about.
*lets argue about arguing about dragon ball because its too fucking dumb to talk about directly
The movie has been leaked on Youtube haha.
I read a review on it yesterday, and it's apparently as bad everyone thought it would be. Not only did they butcher the story, but the actual movie production is horrible.
I think I'm gonna download this and watch it high I need a good laugh
I know your sick and all, but click the link before you start your smartass comments. It has reviews posted from, and linked to, many outside sources. It's easier to post that one link than all the ones in that 100 page thread.
The more I hear people say this movie is bad the more I want to watch it.
