    “Whoever “Pff” is on JP’s site, please stop. There is always going to be people who don’t like you, and I would like to move on. I’ve been sick in bed and all I need is to start a flame war.”

    Thank you.

    Adam has been sick and I’ve been stressed and I think we let it get the better of ourselves (at least I have). I think we both said some things we shouldn’t have, and I certainly apologize.

    But Adam and I seem to have worked things out now. . .

    Anyone knows about the soundtrack?

    I think Damon Albarn (Blur, TGTBATQ, Gorillaz) would make a nice soundtrack. He made it for a Chinese play “Monkey: Journey To the West”

  4. May 17th, 2008 at 20:16 | #4

    @DPA: Brian Tyler (Children of Dune, Constantine, Rambo) is doing the soundtrack. Search the site for “brian tyler.”

    Goku = NOT scrawny emo kid
    Justin Chatwin = scrawny emo kid
    Goku = NOT Justin Chatwin
    i really think they should have a few cast changes. James Marsters will do good, i think… but not Chatwin… srsly..

  6. May 18th, 2008 at 00:32 | #6

    ok kouji, go ahead and send your comment to the makers of the film so they can scrap the whole movie and start all over again, i mean, you do know theyre done shooting right.. then they can cast some buff ass dude to your liking to play an 18 year old kid.. and then they can just have him with no shirt on through the whole movie, how bout that. you do know that if they did follow the anime exactly then goku would be some little elementary school kid played by the freaking fat kid from Two and a Half Men or some shit like that, but then that would suck and even more complaining. what do people want! nothings ever good enough, why is stuff like this still being said, why am i even responding to it.. maybe im the idiot for responding to idiots, ya thats it, god, im just in a loss….

  7. May 18th, 2008 at 00:42 | #7

    sorry adam, they got me cussin on here now, thats just unprofessional, but sometimes i just want to headbutt the screen with all this crap you know… anyways, my fault man.

  8. May 18th, 2008 at 01:40 | #8

    lol Jake is cool!!!!
    He just made a really good point you guys! He said….

    “ok kouji, go ahead and send your comment to the makers of the film so they can scrap the whole movie and start all over again, i mean, you do know theyre done shooting right.. then they can cast some buff ass dude to your liking to play an 18 year old kid..”

    Are you guys serious? He looks NOTHING like Goku. I mean, you’re all praising his hair, when all it is, is a SECTIONED FAUXHAWK! I’m not trying to flame or anything, but I seriously wouldn’t get my expectations up. I’ve been waiting for a DB movie, but I’ve come to learn that pretty much any childhood love is bastardized in the hands of Hollywood, save for the few gems like Transformers and the Spider-Man films. Don’t get me wrong, I’m gonna go see this the day it comes out, but I’m gonna try not to disappoint myself.

    here, on DBLive, we can see a picture of piccolo, dunno if its fake or not, but it seems like the source is pretty good. So piccolo should be like this mask: http://www.dragonball-live.fr/
    only avaible in french for the moment, probably soon in english

    just go to the top of the page martin and click the UK flag and it goes to english. anyways i doubt thats piccolo, it looks more like something one of the henchmen they’re supposed to be having in the movie. but who knows, that site is pretty credible, but the pic just might be fake

  14. May 18th, 2008 at 09:12 | #14

    @Adam: Well, maybe Albarn could make an original song. Maybe Radiohead.

    I don´t wanna listen maroon 5 ending the movie.

  15. May 18th, 2008 at 09:19 | #15

    Yeah I deleted that post because it looked fake but updated this post. What do you think?

    May 18th, 2008 at 09:25 | #17

    The complete poster is a fake… I’m almost sure.

  18. SSj Jon
    May 18th, 2008 at 09:29 | #18

    The full poster look so real but also so fake. Think its fake because if u look at the full poster and the poster where he is looking at the dragon ball his arms and everything are positioned EXACTLY the same. If u don’t believe me than look at his fingers in both pics. There exactly the same in both of them. Its a very cool looking poster and can fool anyone but the similarites are too great. Whoever didthat must be pretty professional to create the rest of bulma outfit tho.

  19. May 18th, 2008 at 09:30 | #19

    Yeah sorry I just woke up, thought it was real for a second.

  20. McKlyde
    May 18th, 2008 at 09:32 | #20

    its 100% fake

    its elements of the WYJ scan pasted and blurred together

    and it has the wrong release date.

  21. May 18th, 2008 at 09:35 | #21

    What do you think though? Would you mind if it was real?

  22. Tommy
    May 18th, 2008 at 09:39 | #22

    The poster looks pretty good, but I’m almost sure it’s fake. Anyone notice the date? The idiot who took the time to make this put 5-8-9 instead of 4-8-9

  23. Spawn
    May 18th, 2008 at 09:42 | #23

    its fake

  24. zanny
    May 18th, 2008 at 09:44 | #24

    At first glance at the poster, it didnt look too bad, but then I enlarged the pic and the more I looked at, the more it looked fake and too similar to pic of Goku by himself… and the date wrong lol

  25. May 18th, 2008 at 09:46 | #25

    @zanny: Yeah I deleted it. I just woke up and didn’t take the time to look at it.

  26. May 18th, 2008 at 09:51 | #26

    I just spent the last hour reading these posts. wow..I can’t wait for the Movie. :D

  27. Andrew
    May 18th, 2008 at 10:02 | #27

    u guys really have to keep in mind that this movie is called “dragonball” not Dragonball Z or GT. I think you people are getting too hung up on looks at not the storyline. This movie is going to be about how Goku had his coming of age leading up to the Z saga. He’s not aware of his saiyan heritage and who he really is in the movie so therefore he’s not going to be as badass as you all want him to be. Wait for the sequel at at least…geesh!!

    Steve Mason of Fantasy Mogul take Narnia’s less than expected gross

    “My sources have suggested a number of possible reasons for Narnia 2’s disappointing start. Although reviews have been generally positive, many critics mentioned that the film is darker than the original and has some extended battle sequences. Also, the faith-based marketing that drove The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe to its huge opening number seemed to get less traction this time around. Some churches have backed-off on participation in movie marketing because their congregations have become resentful of being overtly “used” to drive ticket sales.”

    @MIKE: Narnia sucks anyway dude, why post a link for someone else to say it sucks? We all know it sucks, just let it kep sucking :wink:

    @Andrew:

    I gotta agree with u there. Ppl focus too much on looks alone and forget about everything else.

    it look like dragonball the magic begins but white a white guy.

    if japan did not make a dragonball live action what make you that 20th Century Fox is going to do a good job?

    they already made a live action dragonball movie unofficial Chinese live-action remake of the first Dragon Ball feature film The Legend of Shenlong (known as Curse of the Blood Rubies in the English version), done in 1989. The plot revolves around a rag-tag group of heroes, led by Goku or “Monkey Boy”, trying to stop an evil king named King Horn from using the Dragon Pearls to rule the world.

    See kids 20th Century Fox thinks dragonball is power ranger.

    here a video link how the movie look like

    BAN the duck.

  42. May 18th, 2008 at 19:07 | #42

    Thanks for the find Pffff, but that poster is totally fake dude. They use way to much burn and blur effect on Adobe photoshop Cs2. You can tell by looking at Emmy Rossum neck. They also used way to much smear to blend it in together. Also you can tell by looking at the lower half of there body it’s fake. They used way to much burn tool. Plus why is the Dragonball pink? That poster is totally not from Fox. Plus check out the font you guys!! All they did was make the font larger from the other poster. The more blur you use on Adobe the more you take out the details of the picture.

  43. May 18th, 2008 at 19:15 | #43

    @darkwing duck: I have to admit Darkwing, you just made one of the dumbiest comments I read so far. You must never seen the magic begins? Plus why should we trust your judgement? This is coming from someone who still watches Darkwing duck. Don’t get me wrong Darkwing is a classic, but it doesn’t compare to Dragonball. Dragonball is going to be alwsome dude!! Just watch!!!!

  49. DRAGONBALL WOOHOO!!
    May 20th, 2008 at 00:54 | #49

    Great pics! anyways, I dont think Master Roshi will look like what they have put on the poster. If you look closely you will see that the images are of different quality, i.e. using different filters… goku and bulma have that movie filter cleanly done kinda finesse to them, the master roshi pic looks more like a set pic or something… so im pertty sure thats not how master roshi will look
