Mymovie has some newish promotional photos featuring Eriko Tamura (Mai), Jamie Chung (Chi-Chi) and Justin Chatwin (Goku). Click to enlarge.
Christina Inman sent Movieland an extremely high quality promotional photo. The image was previously released, but not in high definition.
A member from DBMB who claims he “Wasinthemovie” recently revealed some information to them, which apparently comes straight from the set of Mexico City. Spoilers ahead.
This picture was during one of the few scenes I didn’t get into, I really wanted in these classroom scenes because they were all close ups but there was a lot of political crap going on with the extra casting people… anyway…
Goku with his classmates are looking at pictures of the moon which even a picture causes him to go into a trance and almost transforms him. Chatwin has to stare into the camera in this scene.
I was only on the set for the 6 days of Mexico City filming, I wasn’t chosen to go to Durango… more politics, so ya.
He also gave his opinion on the movie, which isn’t too good.
One of the first scenes we shot was Goku’s bike getting trashed by Texas Battles character “Carey Fuller’s†car. Chatwin says in an adolescent voice “Dude my Bike!â€, to which Texas looks over at his friend and responds, “Did you just fart?â€
So if that sounds like quality writing, then I guess it’ll be ok. Most of the dialog for the first 6 days follow this kind of teenage drivel…
I was lucky enough to be in the movie so I can only pray they didn’t cut me out of anything, I’m a huge fan so I am very grateful I was able to be in the film but from a critical fan’s point of view I’m going to hate at LEAST the opening scenes dialog, because I, and others, were cringing on set….
It may not be a trailer (yet), but Jamie Chung (Chi-Chi) recently revealed some information about Dragonball to io9.com at Comic-Con ‘08. Check it out here.
Our source in Japan sent us these exclusive new scans from the Japanese magazines Nikkan Sports, Roadshow, Young Jump, and Weekly Shonen Jump. Most of the promotional photos are old, but there are a couple new ones and all of them are in high quality. The source also notes the film will be shown in more than 700 screens in Japan.

According to TheHollywoodNews.com, Fox will be promoting Dragonball later this week at Comic-Con in San Diego.
I’ve got to admit, I know nothing about this movie, except the fact that Fox are taking it to Comic Con later this week, so expect some more promo stuff to pop up online later.
/Film also seems convinced that Fox will be promoting Dragonball there as well.
I’m sure Fox will launch some new marketing materials later this week at Comic Con.
If anyone is attending Comic-Con, feel free to send us anything you may find.
UPDATE: Unfortunately, Dragonball had no presence at the event.

In a recent interview for her upcoming Samurai Girl TV show on ABC, Jamie Chung (Chi-Chi) talked about her role in Dragonball.
“It’s a very strong young female role, and her name is Chi Chi,” Chung said in in an interview at the Television Critics Association’s summer press tour, where she was promoting her new ABC Family show Samurai Girl, in Beverly Hills, Calif., last week.
Dragonball–which also stars Emmy Rossum, James Marsters, Chow Yun-Fat and Ernie Hudson–follows a boy named Goku (Justin Chatwin) who tries to fulfill his grandfather’s dying request to find a great master and gather seven Dragon Balls to prevent an alien’s rise to power. The movie is based on the anime series Dragon Ball Z.
“We’ve finished filming,” Chung said. “The martial-arts aspect of the character [is the same as the Samurai Girl character Heaven], but Heaven is something real special. … Chi Chi was a fun character to play, and … it’s also a very strong young female, but Heaven has a completely different [backstory] behind her that makes things so much more interesting.”

Immediate Music announced earlier this month (although somehow we missed it) that they had recently scored the teaser trailer for Dragonball. From their official website:
Immediate Music just recently scored the teaser trailer for the highly anticipated film, Dragonball.
Apparently the music is custom, and not one of their previous scores. To learn more about them, click here. Maybe the trailer is sooner than we think?
