Dragonball: The Junior Novel

August 14th, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

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!

    @SSJ Jon: He’s 46 now…or so he says! lol, no he probably is but I hate it when some famous people lie about their age. Like Lindsey Lohan and Scarlett Johanssen who were my brother’s age as teenagers, but now they’re suddenly my age.

    I think Joon Park might be fibbing about his age. He says he’s 39 but he looks about 55 especially in this photo.

    @anthony: There will most likely be a regular novel as well. There usually is with movies like this. So it’s still too soon to call the movie on a PG rating based on that.

    (OFF TOPIC)Is it Possiable for the Trailer to Release on Dragon con and what is Dragon con is it bigger then Comic con if u know what i mean…????? someone answer if you can

    I hated GT :( …Besides its non-cannon. :)

    For me Dragonball ended with DBZ at the end of the Majin Buu saga. :)

    August 20th, 2008 at 12:46 | #17

    ok I’m one of the biggest dbz ffans around but what is cannon and non cannon. I never heard that term before

    @SSJ Jon: Its just a way of stating that the specific story is considered to be an actual part of the official story or timeline, or it’s just some adventures that took place on the side. Like the Dragonball Z animated movies, took place in the same universe, etc. But the events had no affect on the events of the anime.

    @Ryan: What happened in GT doesn’t matter. Toriyama did away with that by making his own, true sequel to DBZ.

    What did happen though in GT? Funimation made it looked like he didn’t die, but in the Japanese version, they kind of left it up to the viewer as to whether or not he was killed.

  23. August 20th, 2008 at 17:31 | #23

    @J: wat sequel are you talking about??? neko majin z??

    i want to know

    I’m tired of waiting for a trailer. How much longer is it gonna be! i feel like the helpless people waiting for fema after hurricae katrina. Its official, Fox doesn’t care about black people…… Oh wait, thats george bush lol

    August 20th, 2008 at 19:41 | #32

    @moin: They won’t be promoting Dragonball at all so why does it matter? BTW I have no idea if it’s bigger than Comic-Con, I really doubt it tho.

    August 20th, 2008 at 19:55 | #33

    Trailer, Fox? No? Alright then..

    Go F**k Yourselves!

    Sorry, that was rude to Fox Entertainment.

    Go Die!!

    The End..

  34. August 20th, 2008 at 20:02 | #34

    i just hope this new dragonball anime that comes out is over an hour or 2 hours long, and it features better animtion than naruto and bleach, cuz im tired of all that choppy animation from the original anime.

    i wish miyazaki coulda been involved in this, but oh well.

  35. August 20th, 2008 at 20:21 | #35

    @REPAIR MAN MAN: :evil: James Wong and Fox are only doing this for money they dont care about the fans or the anime series.And NO this doesnt look better than the old anime series I hope James Wong gets fired.I really didnt care about the cast or how they made goku going to school,but James Wong should AT LEAST put Krillin going to school with Goku.Or put Krillin when ever Goku started Training with Master Roshi.And he shoul’ve also put the talking Pig and the talking sea turtle to be in the movie,same as the other weird talking animals.And also I wanted to see Tien and his midget friend.But no James Wong decided to ruin the film.I hope they dont win no money at all.

    every company sells things for money, what makes this different

    August 20th, 2008 at 20:52 | #38

    @Clown Prince of Crime: You honestly think…talking animals…a dude with 3 eyes…and a albino midget would make this movie better? Wow, you are probably 10 or 11 years old and is still arguing for a carbon copy of the show. You want to see talking animals, a dude with three eyes, and a pale midget? Then go buy DBZ Season one on DVD, and stop bitching. :mrgreen:

  39. Breasts are full
    August 20th, 2008 at 21:31 | #39

    He’s more right than wong though, except for the talking animals, too shitty Don’t think for a second fox wouldn’t try to sell a bad movie to us. They would love nothing more than to make millions from cheaply made artless shit movies. Wong seems like a good director who cares about his movies at least having some intelligence to them, so I doubt he’d all out make it crap, but who knows.

  40. August 20th, 2008 at 21:33 | #40

    @Tommy: LOL no man I am 17 I am graduating this year.I do have all the season DVD’s but I am with you about the talking animals I was wrong thanks for telling me it probably will make the movie look retarded wityh talking animals.BUT I am not with you about Tien and the midget friend they will make the movie better thats what really made memad.And no I dont want to start no drama with you.Face it only pussys will do that in the internet.I dont do that dude :wink: .

    I BET YAMCHA WILL GET HIS SCARS IN THE MOVIE !!!! 10 dollars

    August 20th, 2008 at 23:20 | #42

    Off topic, but I just had a thought. You think that those shades on Joon Park’s head will end up on Chow Yun Fat’s face by the end of the film?

  43. SSJ Jon
    August 21st, 2008 at 00:04 | #43

    @Walsh: i didnt even think about that. im not betting you tho lol

  44. August 21st, 2008 at 00:41 | #44

    @Clown Prince of Crime: i was talking about the new ANIME that is coming out. not the movie. lol

    in regards to the movie, KRILLIN WAS DEAD IN THE PICCOLO SAGA!!! WHO NEEDS HIM THERE??

    i mean he can appear in the beginning, get killed, and come back. and tien and chiaotzu. but oh well, let them come in dbz.

    tien and chiaotzu better make a cameo in this, like the other ppl cameoed in x men. that was cool.

    if not, oh well. they’ll be in dbz, cuz u need those ppl to die so eveyrone else goes to namek.

    if this one sucks, maybe the next movie wont be directed by james wong

    I AM…REPAIR MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN MAN….

  46. August 21st, 2008 at 01:50 | #46

    i mean they prolly thought there would be no point to krillin, if hes just there in the beginning, dies, and comes back at the end.

  47. Celestine
    August 21st, 2008 at 02:08 | #47

    i dont think chiaotzu will be any good in a live action movie. I mean where in the world would they find a really midget kind of actor from?

  48. Celestine
    August 21st, 2008 at 02:10 | #48

    it would kind of be the same thing with Krillin too.. Where are they gonna find a person who is short like him?

  49. glennXD
    August 21st, 2008 at 02:29 | #49

    @Celestine: I wouldnt mind krillen if they found some one 5 feet for the movie… and who gives a crap about the nose thing i mean theres no human in the world with out a nose so whats the point if they add krillen with a nose for the movie.. o wellz … i dont really wanna complain if hes not in it i wouldnt mind krillen in the movie tho.
