First ever post???

And man, this movie is looking baaaad. I dont even like DBZ but I feel the fans pain.

second....looks pretty dumb...I mean they changed a japanese animae cartoon's main character American...how much dumber can it get...plus he just doesn't look like a goku...he looks like a wimp. But I'll probably still see it anyway

you're all idiots who know the only way to get attention is by annoying people. i laugh at your insignificant lives and whatever went wrong in your childhood that makes you want to say first. keep it up, first baby yea! hahaha losers

oh wow. that image looks really bad. kinda scared for the movie now.

@KJ

Goku isn't japanese. He's an alien. And he certainly doesn't look asian in the cartoons... definitely looks like a white fella tho.

this sucks. TERRIBLE. I love DBZ but would never go see this trash


Posted by: kj on July 6, 2008 at 02:39:10

@butnakedAvenger

you can say that none of the animae characters look asian because they have the same look to them...but they are supposed to be. why would a japanese cartoon want to make their main character white? You see it just doesn't make sense...but that's hollywood


Posted by: evilvenkman on July 6, 2008 at 02:39:44

i admit it looks cheesy, like mortal kombat and street fighter movie cheesy but i will definitely go see this. once it's moving and theres effects with music it will be cool. i hate the cartoons but this movie is a must see


Posted by: The ButnakedAvenger on July 6, 2008 at 02:39:57

haha... I love how all of the fans on the boards with the pics are loving everything about this and everybody here hates it.

I originally doubted the casting of Goku... but i'm starting to come around. Hopefully for the sequel chatwin bulks up more to play a more adult looking Goku.


Posted by: The ButnakedAvenger on July 6, 2008 at 02:44:57

@KJ

Take another look at some anime. The asian characters definitely look asian. Based on the eyes and skin tone, I'd say goku is def. intended to be white by the animators.

Who knows why they want to do it? To make it appeal to the much larger american market maybe?

kj...you're a ****ing idiot. Sorry, but the truth hurts (as does your ignorant comment).

Just because the show is a Japanese cartoon, an anime, DOESN'T MEAN ALL THE CHARACTERS ARE ASIAN. The complete ignorance/stupidity of this way of thinking just baffles the **** out of me.

Goku is an ALIEN, a freaking Saiyajin. He's NOT Japanese. And even in the show, Goku is goofy and not exactly the brightest crayon in the box. Justin Chatwin has that kind of look to him, which I like.

And this is from the first regular DRAGONBALL show. Not Dragonball Z. Not any of the in-betweener movies. Goku is young in Dragonball and NOT buffed out like he is in Z and beyond.

GOD, how I'm sick of seeing some moron ***** about Goku not being played by an Asian actor on EVERY SINGLE DB ARTICLE.

Ahem. That said, I'm actually looking forward to this movie. It could turn out to be pretty awesome, or it could be completely ridiculous that I'll laugh my ass off but still get to see the gorgeous and talented Emmy Rossum. So it's a win-win situation for me.

SWEET! i saw the other picture of justin wearing the orange jumpsuit, now it's blue. good thing that they followed the anime' costume which is blue when goku was a small child and eventually orange when he was trained by master roshi.
now i want to see james as lord piccolo.


Posted by: sadmamba on July 6, 2008 at 03:22:58

have you seen master roshi? how come he's not bald? anyway, just look at his shirt! always a pervert! ;)

The ButnakedAvenger:
I hope they recast goku all together for a possible sequel and hope they revamp the movie franchise already (like hulk, batman and possibly superman). Or depending on how this movie's story goes set it up years later with a different cast (and writer/ director for that matter) set in the "Z" era. BTW, kudos to you andbeing one of the few people that get the fact that Saiyans are aliens, not japs and there for can be played by any race.

evilvenkman:
Get a life.
Although, that "first" **** bugs me too.

Yup. the movie's gonna suck. They should immediately revamp or "reboot" the franchise already. And then kill themselves for Fuh-king up what could be one of the best movies ever (almost like LOTR, Matrix and Star Wars rolled into one!)


Posted by: Nick Fury on July 6, 2008 at 03:32:36

oh hell yea...this movie is going to rock!!!!! i cant hardly wait!!!! i'll be the first in line when it first comes out, no doubt!!!! look how cool Gokou costume and how cool that american actor who replace an asian main character.....i will definitely see this movie!!!! NOOOOOOOOOOTTTTTT hahahahaha.......gimme a break.....


Posted by: CG on July 6, 2008 at 03:33:22

Some of you guys are so immature. Anyways, the photos are great. The GI is fantastic, and totally faithful. I was afraid Roshi's perverse personality would not be included, and am relieved that's not the case. Good times. How about some of you actually look at the photos instead of following what other people say. You see the title dragonball automatically **** comes up regardless of whats shown. Grow up. transformers you people get on your knees.


Posted by: Jerkofwonder on July 6, 2008 at 03:39:04

I love DBZ, and i want this movie to be great... But everything i've seen just looks so bad. Like, painfully bad. =(


Posted by: StarBlazer101 on July 6, 2008 at 03:39:31

why is this movie only being promoted in Japan????


Posted by: sadmamba on July 6, 2008 at 04:02:36

TO JERKOFWONDER: this is not DBZ. only DragonBall

TO STARBLAZER101: because people in Japan are very excited to see their "baby" to be in a live action movie made by hollywood.


Posted by: puddin on July 6, 2008 at 04:10:23

this will get next year's razzie..
why did they make this...
i feel sorry for the true dragonball fans who are trying to accept this...
glad i am not one...


Posted by: unreal101 on July 6, 2008 at 04:13:22

This is gonna be a buncha crap.. no matter what anyone says. WTF are they doing picking Justin Chatwin as Goku??? This movie has 'direct to video' written all over it! Hell, it could even be made for TV bullshyt!!!!


Posted by: unreal101 on July 6, 2008 at 04:15:18

O, and see CG, I've been checking out most of the pics for this movie b/c everytime I come on here for TDK stuff, more Db stuff comes up and it all looks like SHYT!


Posted by: Enleydo on July 6, 2008 at 05:02:27

Honestly, I don't see a DBZ Movie here. I just see a guy that has the same Name as Goku does, and some other Charakters that do the same. This is no DBZ Movie. This Movie just shares the Names, but not more. That's why I'm for sure not going to see this Movie in Cinemas, but I'm going to wait for the BD.


Posted by: mark on July 6, 2008 at 05:12:24

You got that right i seen the pictures and come on they look pretty bad.
i grew up with this anime and i really hate what they're doing here.
maybe it's the director, oh well will see how spilberg makes "ghost in a shell"
