What do you think they'd screw up?
I mean the Spidey movies made me not wanna speak to anyone for a while (fun yes but I digress..)

The only way we'd see the right hair would be if Wayne Static of Static-X was in the movie, Goku and Vegetta or somebody will be named lost brothers or somethin and the ki powers are would really be screwed up

No. Nononononono! I may have only seen a some scattered parts of Dragon Ball Z and a couple of episodes, but I know enough to know that's screwed up almost beyond repair.

It's being done by Fox. Why is anyone surprised? Fox ruins everything. It's proven fact.

If this was intended to be anything other than Dragonball, this might actually look not half bad. Maybe even like a good time. But as a representation of the anime and manga, I can already tell just by the trailer that this is going to be a massive failure and butchery.

Hmmm...Fox...4Kids...there seems to be a pattern in the entertainment industry for names starting with "F" (or "F" sounds)...

4Kids is a subsidiary of Fox. That should explain everything right there.

Not much I can help out at this point, I'm just glad that no one on my actor list got suckered into this, and my favorite DBZ characters (Vegeta, Krillin, Trunks) were speared.

Didn't need to mention Fox to see this was gonna be a bad idea. To me, just the mear thought of flying intergalatic monkeys that shot energy (sory, just had to say that) brought to life just didn't seem right.

Had I commented right after I saw the trailer, this post would mostly be filled with the most foulest of language that would even make me ban myself, but then I sat down and thought it through and looked up some more stuff about the movie.

First of all, like every other DB fan, I am seriously seriously dissapointed in how this movie is not true to the original. It's practically a whole new storyline. Goku as a high school kid? I don't know what to say to that. And I can't recall Bulma being a weapon chick, was she? And then there's Piccolo killing Grandpa Gohan when the original it was Goku who killed him. Oh and yeah, PICCOLO IS NOT GREEN! WHY ISN'T HE GREEN?!

Like I said, it's a whole new story. I pray at the very least they keep the characters are in character (Roshi being a pervert, Goku as a goofball etc.) though I have my doubts there as well.

Putting that aside....I really don't know how I feel about this movie.

I wanna say that it looks like **** but then I aslo wanna say that as a movie it may not be so bad.

I really don't know...Like DL said, if it weren't a representation of the original anime, it may not be so bad. But sadly as it is, it is a bloody butchery mess.

That said....I really don't know what more to say. I guess it's because of the fact that I'm the kind of movie goer that ignores all bad points and tries to enjoy the movie the best I can that has me in a dilemma here.

I do think it looks horrible for a DB film. But for some kind AU fan fiction like adaption....I guess I'll give it a chance.

It DOES look horrible. *shakes head* Ah well. This'll make it all the more fun to laugh and throw popcorn at when I go see it. That is the only reason I want to see it, anyway, just 'cause I KNOW its going to be horrible, and I need something to laugh at. lol!

Dragon Ball Z used to be my favorite series in the world, and I still have some of my action figures. So it saddens me that Fox can't make it right. *shrugs* But what can you do, eh? Except re-write the screenplay, and then make a better version than anyone could EVER make! Muwahahahaaaaa! *cough* *eyetwitches*

Ahem.

Anyhoo, Dl-Sama is right. Fox SUCKS. End of story. lol!

I'm curious to see how they adapt it.

Yeah i'm angry about the whole Goku being a highschool kid thing.

But still....very curious, very curious.

I believe he becomes green after making his wish to Shenron--voiced by DBZ vet Chris Sabat (Vegeta, Piccolo, Yamcha, and the dragon among others)--for his youth.

Then he'll be the Big Green we know and love. Big Green...thank you!

Yo guys, you gotta check this out;

http://news.mmosite.com/content/2008-11-11...4944788,1.shtml

When I first saw it I was like 'what the bloody hell??' o.o

Ooh and check out the new stills.The one where Goku is eating a drumstick, a hopeful sign that they will characterize him with his usual food craze. And the one with Roshi wearing that shirt, I pray that that is a hint we will have our usual perverted Roshi.

But ya know what, I really think they should've gotten this guy, from the Chinese adaption of the live action movie, for the part of Roshi;

He is just too awesome xD
