Raziellink Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Where is this stated, exactly? About Piccolo? Read it here, last time there was a topic about a DBZ movie. And about Goku dieing, i stumbled upon it looking for somehting else on google. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragonball doesn't have a cheesy plot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotd2242 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 I gave up completely on this movie as soon as I heard they replaced Krillin with his Mexican equivalent of Teto and put Goku in high school. I was skeptical from the start considering the whole franchise would be difficult enough to bring to a live-action scenario, but the more I hear about this movie the less interest I have in seeing it. I mean, Goku, the boy who grew up with only his adoptive grandfather out in the boonies of the forest is now your average high-schooler? That isolation was key to his character's aloof, innocent nature. Hell Yamucha was a wandering desert thief, so he doesn't belong in high school either. I didn't have any problem with Goku being played by a white guy though. He is an alien after all, but Chatwin in no way shape or form resembles my idea of Goku. The only reason left to see this movie is for the big screen CG Kamehameha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raziellink Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Don’t worry, that isn’t a spoiler until the next film, and by that time most of you will be too senile to even remember this article. Tim Van Rellim, the producer for the live-action Dragonball movie was interviewed by a mexican newspaper, where he decided to let the cat out of the bag. He states that Goku dies in the beginning of the second film, and that three movies are scheduled to be released, aka a trilogy. So if Goku dies in the begging of the second film that means that it must be the begging of the Saiyan Saga; when Goku gets drilled by Piccolo (no homo).He also states that the film will hopefully be released in the Summer or October of this year; though this is contrary to the previous statement that Fox had made stating that it was pushed back almost a year. So what is right anymore? Besides Goku dying. http://www.japanator.com/elephant/post.phtml?pk=7789 Here it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bleck Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 Yeah everyone let's all seriously take into account what Mexican newspaper says! Edit: Who the hell is Tim Van Rellim, anyway? I am pretty sure that the producers of the film are Stephen Chow and James Wong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotd2242 Posted June 5, 2008 Share Posted June 5, 2008 The first one was pushed back until April of next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or should i disregard EVERYTHING that i read, because it might be from an unexpected place; in this case Mexico? :S Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushfire Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Does anyone remember Dragonball: A Magical Beginning. That movie was the mad notes. With this new one I hope they bring back Master Roshi's Moonwalker Magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-n-j-i-n Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I'll totally ignore it then anticipate renting the new DBZ: Burst Limit game. Anyone play the demo? The graphics are f'n amazing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I played the demo on the 360, and I must admit, I was really impressed. This is the Budokai I have been waiting for. The graphics of Budokai 3, wna the cutscenes of Budokai 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Coop Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Goku is going to be younger, in other words - apparently in high school. So it's going to be littered with 'American Pie'-style sexual innuendo jokes, horribly lame 'I'm cool' lines, walk on characters repeatedly trying to get into Bulma's pants, and teen angst sprinkled over the top?

The Pezman Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 If they squish things together and have him dress up as The Great Saiyaman it will be awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SynthesizedStampede Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Excuse my language, but by the way it looks, it's going to suck BALLS. No offense, but I'm not very confident at the moment. I guess that means it'll be better for me if it does turn out good. So what part of the Dragonball story does it cover, is it even canon?

Red Shadow Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 i IT'S DBZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuriousFure Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 i IT'S DBZ yeah actually, its called "Dragon Ball" no Z. so it might just be based on the story a little. also, theres only one thing that can save this movie and thats the action. the way they do that will decide how I like it. Movies like this one make me so glad i work at a Movie Theatre. i see movies for free (and usually early) so a crappy movie is just a waste of time, nothing else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. In other words, completely faithful to the source material! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lotd2242 Posted June 9, 2008 Share Posted June 9, 2008 Trying? A few of them succeeded. And then there's the part where 12 year old Goku pulls off her panties and freaks because she's missing the male parts. Or the time she flashed Roshi for a Dragonball...

jayc4life Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Apparently, it's following The Piccolo Saga from the original Dragon Ball, so it won'thave any of the 'Z' characters. I can't wait to see Cow Yun Fat dothe Original Kamehamea though. It would be worth going to see alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
