Most people seem to say this movie sucks just because it's Dragon Ball...

I've been pretty skeptical, but at the moment I think this may end up being really kickass.

Seriously, CHOW YUN FAT.

Also rumor has it that James Kyson Lee (Ando Masahashi from Heroes) is playing Yamcha!!
Yay! Random words!

I'd watch it to see the ridiculousness of it all.

Actually, I think this movie will be like the live-action Super Mario Brothers. I enjoyed it, but it was a major flop. This DBZ might be the same.

I'll be waiting for Mr. T or Verne Troy.
VERNE TROY AS KRILLIN '08!!!

"A lot" of info..

*There's some random guy playing Goku's best friend.. who never appears anywhere in manga/anime.. whose role is important.. yay--
*Justin Chatwin isn't wearing a wig, cuz his hair already is like Goku's.. Words of truth.
*The white-haired guy from Speed Racer trailer plays Yamcha (cool)
*Jamie Chung is Chi Chi.. doesn't look all that innocent girl :P

Yea, Chaozu, I don't think they'll introduce them.. Instead we get some original characters!!  :woop:


This I found pretty nice:

They're doing to Dragon Ball what they did to Hitman.

Keeping the names, but butchering a story.

I enjoyed the Hitman movie.

How can the DragonBall story be butchered?

Wouldn't that imply that DragonBall had a worthwhile story to begin with?

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!

I'll be happy as long as there is at least one massive ki use scene that includes a wave/beam clash.

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.

I remember enjoying the original Dragonball, which is what this movie will be taking place in.
DBZ lost me when it kept babbling about power levels and the character battles seemed half filled with constipation. Maybe it was just the english translation. -shrug-
