According to Amazon, Dragonball will have its very own “Junior Novel” based upon the movie. The book is being adapted by Stacia Deutsh and Rhody Cohan, and it’s scheduled for a February 2009 release.
Amazon lists the books price at just $5.99, and they’re also taking pre-orders.
Collect all seven Dragon Balls and you can wish for whatever you want!
Goku thought he was a normal high school student until he found out he’s actually a martial-arts whiz with all kinds of powers. Now he and his fellow teen warriors are on a quest to find all the Dragon Balls before they fall into the wrong hands. But they may already have! Goku must battle the evil Piccolo with all he’s got to save the planet Earth!

@REPAIR MAN MAN: But King Piccolo willbe in it so why THEY just put himand then getting him killed BY KING PICCOLO’S MONSTERS.
@REPAIR MAN MAN:Exactly THEY should’ve just put him in he movie and then getting him killed BY KING PICCOLO’S MONSTERS.
I really think that they are gonna screw up the anime and I think that the pure fans will not love the movie.
The history of the movie wasn’t made by a dragon ball true fan.
Granpa Gohan was killed by Goku while transformed in giant monkey, Goku wasn’t in high-school (he isn’t spider-man)… A trilogy isn’t suficient to tell all the story… They should have made a story like DragonBall OAV, a story in the middle of the whole story.
I can remember the LOTR pure fans dissapointed by the movies.
I think that DragonBall the movie will be like Batman movies… Someone destroy’s it and a decade later, someone creates “THE” movie.
This will be another Final Fantasy – The Spirits Within error like: Great for the eye but s*** for the mind.
Cheers…
they could easily get a child to be chouzu get a 5 yearold paint him white …. make him say Tien a few times ….ect
@Nuno: the movie was made to tell what would have happened in the real earth, idiot!!! no talking animals, no blue/purple haired bulmas!! no ~18 year old uneducated guys, who get sexy girls! no no-nosed people (krillin)! this is a story about DB in the world that has america, europe, africa and asia in the map! read the news!! and… that’s it i guess
seriously.. “oooh true fans would never accept anything that is beyond the original db” geez.. go watch “the magic begins” you bastard!!!
P.S. what you call “a fan” is not A fan. it’s called an obsesed person. HUGE difference
@Nuno: stop calling yourself a fan, that sickens the true ones
repair man man man man man
O_O
whats all that about?
haha
xD
@Clown Prince of Crime: im guessing that because of the amount of money and fast production time they got, i dont think they had enough for more actors? or enough time to develop a good story? i dunno
theyre all dumb
I AM….REPAIR MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN…..
@anthony: XD
I AM….REPAIR MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN……..
@REPAIR MAN MAN: they’re not dumb.. why are you saying that?
@Nuno:
This movie is an adaption, it is more realistic, it is an alternate reality of the show, do you get what I’m saying
ima have to set u kiddies strait:
we need some real news, for one, but back to my point.
This movie is about 7 months away and they dont have a teaser out? They need to step up, and i mean real quick.
I have faith in this movie, although im still skeptical. It seems true to its roots from pictures that i’ve seen. Ofcourse they cameo’ed alto of stuff, like goku going to school ect. 120+ million dollar budget does resemble the spiderman series movie budgets, so i expect greats. Piccolo i kno is going to be badass, james is a hellah good actor, and so is justin chatwin. I do expect a ‘joker/heath’ type of preformance from justin in this movie. Unfortunately, if he fails to produce, its going down as the biggest bust ever, in movie history. He was great in war of the worlds and the invisible. Chow-yunfat is washed up but he would fit this role perfectly, although he does need a beard, but lets face it guys, u cant find a 100 year olf man who can do kung-fu and live for 2 more movies lol. Marsters is gonna rock this movie, and their make-up guy is going to rock it with his techniques.
My greatest fear is that its going to over use the CGI
I hate exaggerated cgi, i hope that they dont base their foundation on kung fu hustle and shaolin soccer, although the fight scenes were good, the cgi portions were horrible. Although again, those were made in the early 2000’s. I hope its mroe like ‘The One’, that movie was a good martial arts movie, nice view from wong in that movie.
Dark knight, good movie, no cgi.
lil to No cgi = effort = quality movie.
@REPAIR MAN MAN:
What new anime about DB are you talking about?. Whos making it and when is it going to be released and where did you hear about it?
@JoseMP: a dbz tv special, after the buu saga.. released in november
i just hope some news come out before i go back to school next monday or i will be disappointed
@grapes: you scared off Nuno… he was just trying to sound smart and important
Nothing new… Le sigh.
A whole week without news is painful to the eyes. We need something new, and we need it now!
releasing a book on a movie before the movie comes out is a really bad fuckin idea
release the book before the movie comes out
then you’ll make more money for the sequals
Keep in mind that the book is for fairly young kids – the recommended age group is 9-12. And the other accompanying chapter book is for younger kids (7-10). Anyone expecting great literature is going to be disappointed. Taken for what it’s worth, though, it’ll probably be fine.
A TOTAL FRACAS
I think no one should go to see the movie. It will be spend your money to see something away different of what you was waiting for. First because the actor is going to be playing Goku is a weak skinny boy that don’t have even have of Goku’s body. Any of the actor look like the cartoon once. I think they have forgot of what make dragon ball famous. Dragon Ball became famous because the big and define muscles of the characters and principally the intensive action have….
“REMEMBER DON’T WATCH THE MOVIE IT WILL BE A TOTAL FRACAS”
YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO SEE WHAT YOU EXPECT FROM A DRAGON BALL MOVIE…
