    This movie looks like its going to be terrible i am boycotting until i see major changes to everything i’ve seen so far. Boooooooooooooooooooo!

  2. November 30th, 2008 at 07:01 | #2

    well for the reviews i have seen i would say this move is going to be wack as hell and i would pay a fuckin penny to see this movie.

    reasons well the matial is stupid and the character doesnt fit the discription of the characters in the manga anime series im not saying that they are suppose to look exactly like the characters off of the manga series. i mean for one your goku is way off, homie looks like he could hit the weight room and get some muscles, iv seen stick figures buffer than him. next piccolo what the hell was yall thinking, he aint green i dont no what type of color that is i havent been able to find that color in my crayola yet, and were the fuck is his antennas and what is with that dome homies looks like a freakin caveman. and another character would be master roshi actully he is one of my favorite characters in the manga series, were is the beard have yall not seen dragonball z master roshi is bald and the person you have playing his is off way off but so far i have no real complains about master roshi. i like chichi you guys did good on her i think this is the only character i am satified with. last but not least bulma needs to be switched.

    thats all for today i think you all should save yourselfs the humiliation and quit while you ahead. :mrgreen: :D :o :-) :lol: :? :( :cry: :x :evil: .

    well from the reviews i have seen i would say this movie is going to be wack as hell i wouldnt pay a penny to see this movie.

    reasons being that the characters that were selected on the movie do not fit the discription of the characters in the manga anime series. im not saying that they have to look exactly like them. your choice of goku was way off, it looks like homies could hit the weight room i mean come on iv seen stick figures buffer than him, homies needs to get on the jucie. then piccolo, what the hell was yall thinking, first of all what type of color was that i havent been able to find that in my crayola just yet, and where is his antennas at and what is with that dome i mean when i looked at his head i thought that it was a different planet. also master roshi, he is one of my favorite characters in the anime series and let me tell you, your selection of master roshi was off way off, yo where is his beard at and have you not seen dragonball z before master roshi does not have hair but other than thoughs few things iv named i dont really have a problem with master roshi. now the person you chose for chichi was good and actually she is probably the only character i was satisfied with so good job on your choice. last but not least bulma, i think you can find a different person to play her role.

    well thats all for today i think that everyone should save themselves from the humiliation and quit while there ahead but if you continue you may want to make some drastice changes good luck:wink: . :mrgreen: :D :o :-) :lol: :( :cry: :x :evil: .

    I must say, as a longtime direhard fan it’s pretty dissapointing to see a NON GREEN Piccolo with NO ANTENNAE! are they even gonna make him Namekian or what! dear god, please let this movie not be an entirely god aweful piece of crap that has nothing to do with the series!!!1 :cry:

  6. December 2nd, 2008 at 23:41 | #6

    I THINK THIS MOVIE WILL BE SUCK… BECAUSE THE CHARACTER IN THIS MOVIE NONE OF THEM LOOKS LIKE THE ORIGINAL DRAGONBALL Z… I’M TOTALLY DISAPPOINTED .. ALTHOUGH THE MOVIE DID NOT STARTED YET :evil: :x
    I THINK IT IS BETTER MAKE DRAGONBALLZ MOVIE IN 3D LIKE FINAL FANTASY

    I was affraid of this and it is all coming true. It’s gonna suck big time. I can’t relate to these characters. My favorites were Gohan and Piccolo. (From the good side that is.)They don’t look like the anime at all. Not even close. Not even the clothes look the same. So it doesn’t give that familiar feeling. Maybe they should have worked together with Dreamworks or something like that and made it a 3D anime movie. Because this sucks. If I were them I’d call it off right now. It will only cost more.

    For example. Just look at the replies :idea:
    Most are negative. And the worse thing is. They are right!!!
    Can’t wait for DB online.
    Hopefully they won’t make us wait to long. Because it won’t have any use giving us the game much later then Asia. Because I for one won’t get it if it does. I won’t be a fill up for the game. And I live in West-Europe :roll: So don’t screw us everytime with DB. It’s like destroying a part of my soul :x

  8. December 6th, 2008 at 03:54 | #8

    I don’t like it…

    coz gokou is not like him in anime….

    SO, there is an easy way to make our opinion heard by Hollywood Producers….DONT PAY!!! TO SEE IT! use the net as our way to communicate…once they start to see that Fans of all these great original storys are sick of crap re-makes and are loseing money they will start to take a little care with our favourite shows/comics/books……copy and paste if you agree!

    well , Was Goku Doing A Spirit Bomb??
    :D I Cant Wait This Movie To Apper

    Note: Why Piccolo Is Sooo White?? He Could Die Soon :twisted:

  13. December 12th, 2008 at 09:27 | #13

    Well frankly I want to get this off my chest, as I’ve been bottling this up for to long now.
    For starters, I’m a true DB and DB Z fan who has watched every episode that has ever come onto screen since he was a toddler, which was 15 years ago, has collected all the series of DVD and music CD’s for each Saga; even has action figures of Goku, Vegeta and Gohan, etc. I was simply insulted by the very idea that they where considering making this movie. The fact that they have started, I am simply outraged. DB/DBZ should NOT HAVE been turned into a Live-Action Movie. Any true fan would understand what I mean by that. :-)

    The fact that they made Piccolo look like a vampire in a dress hasn’t pleased me, he IS meant to be green and the Director has failed to see that; also, he wears weighted clothing. That’s how he trains, also with meditation. Next, they have obviously got confused with the timelines. If people remember, Lord Piccolo was PURE evil WHEN GOKU was around 12 YRs to 17 YRs OLD. Goku doesn’t look young in the picture, in fact Justin Chatwin is in fact 26. So taking into assumptions that’s how old the Director was picturing Goku as; which means, technically that Piccolo hadn’t been ‘pure’ evil for around 4/5 years. [Note: don't get mistaken with Piccolo Daimo and Piccolo Jr.] He was evil as such at the time, but he makes a bargain with Goku to stop Raditz.

    I mean for god sakes, Goku, Krillin AND piccolo fight Garlic Jr. and send him to the Dead Zone. Unity people.

    Also, Goku should have been Asian – stupid Fu*cking Hollywood :x . They obviously wanted an American as the Hero. GOD FORBID HAVING AN ASIAN AS THE HERO ON AN AMERICAN FILM :x .

    Also, Vegeta isn’t in the movie. Sorry, but I have to draw the line here – he is by far the coolest character in DBZ.

    Finally, they have left out SO MANY important elements of the DB/DBZ – like energy balls? Flying, etc. Super fast speed fights, and I mean lightening speed! That’s what made Dragonball, i remember wanting to watch it when I was a kid just to see the fights, how amazing they were and how I wanted to be able to fight just like them.

    If any TRUE dragonball Fan reads this, then you will understand exactly what I mean; and I’m not talking about a fan who has watched it in the last few years, I mean someone who has know and loved it since they can remember, far back since they where toddlers when DB first came out.
    I agree with watching a movie before given a decision on whether its good or bad;
    but sometimes, and in this moment in time, I’m giving it a thumbs down all the way; not on the basis
    that they left out most of the elements (who knows it could be a good film after all). But the fact that they should never of turned this into a movie. Simply on the basis that it’s a childhood memory for me and many other fans (yeah I occasionally watch them now), and that’s why I loved and love it.

    Wow, I feel so much better after that =]

    That is just how I feel about it all XD

    Its about time dey made a film of dragonball but dis dont look dat great. piccolo looks aite but who da hel is da none lookalike playing Goku? whats da plot to the movie?

    December 19th, 2008 at 13:17 | #15

    Sorry, folks, but this movie looks stupid. I’m a huge fan and was excited to hear about the possibility, but this just looks dumb. If they were going to do this classic anime show justice, they should have made the movie in the style of X-men or something. Stay true to the characters! This isn’t a book to movie transfer, where we’ve all been left to picture the characters in our heads. Piccolo is green, Master Roshi is bald with a beard, and Goku doesn’t look like a sissy. I’m sure I’ll watch the movie… like I said, I’m a huge fan… but I’ll wait for the DVD.

    December 21st, 2008 at 22:09 | #16

    This has got to be the worst idea ever..seriously.
    Goku is white, Master Roshi has hair and is played by Chow Yun Fat??? Piccolo looks nothing like a Namek..more like something from an Star Trek movie…
    They should have just made the movie in Anime style…
    there are some movies that can be made into live action, and some are not meant to be..
    ie, street fighter

    I will watch this, but definitely not in the theatres, what a waste of money.

  17. December 23rd, 2008 at 00:21 | #17

    I think about goku when he was a kid in dragon ball he for number 1 was a kid not a almost grown man piccolo looks horrible we cant stress this enough he is supposed to be green with antennas the outfits look crapie its just heart breaking .. I mean look at x-men x-men is a good example of what a cartoon turned into a movie is supposed to look like //in the previews of the move the marshal arts displayed is horrible i mean they could take some notes from matrix 1 with the fast past fighting and the supper fast movements its like being disappointed again street fighter did it to me when i was 12 and your doing it to me again thats f***ed up i will download the movie i refuse to take time out my life to see this sh** get with marvel take notes

  18. December 23rd, 2008 at 00:43 | #18

    and another thing when x men made wolverine he did not have on a yellow suit nobody body had on colorful outfits and everybody in the movie looked great i love dragon ball z but goku outfit was ugly in the cartoon and its ugly in real life you have to know stay true to the story and when to add a touch of real this looks like it dosen’t know how to do that so it will fail

    December 23rd, 2008 at 10:47 | #19

    GUYS CHILL OUT!!!! on the actual advert you see bits of piccolo and he is green..yes he IS Green….may not look like it in the pics but im like 98% Sure he is green in the advert

    shenron also looks fucking awesome :D

  20. SSJNMK
    December 23rd, 2008 at 10:53 | #20

    in the cartoon none of the characters really look like they have a defining race…i wouldnt look at the cartoon and look at goku and say…he looks asian..they look white more than asian..look at chi chi in the anime..even her name says Chinese all over it but she doesnt look chinese..chinese usually have really small lines for eyes.

    stop whining about goku being white he looks fine…and as for master roshi…chow yun fat was the first person i would have considered for it as he is basically a martial arts master type person.

    this movie will probably surprise all you judgemental fuckers and turn out to be awesome..you cant critisize when the movie isnt even out yet ffs..just everyone stop whining and wait and see

    December 23rd, 2008 at 10:58 | #21

    guys look at the recent post of piccolo and mai standing on a rock..i dunno bout u guys but he looks green as grass..

  22. -,-;
    December 26th, 2008 at 04:18 | #22

    got me off gaurd.. did not think they’d do this..

    btw.. the cartoon originated in japan so u would think they’d have an asian vibe to the characters. althought bulma did seem ‘not asian’… but in my opinion, i think this will be wack..

    another thing, at the top of the page, u can click the ‘trailer’ tab to see the trailer u noobs.
    picollo is definitly green.

    January 5th, 2009 at 17:52 | #25

    if the hollywood producers wants this film to be a huge success, they should stick to the story, character appearance, asian concept and culture… for sure, this will be a big hit if they stick on the original dragonball…

    i mean, a live action gokou portrayed by white person? c’mon peeps… i’m not trying to be a racist here but dragonball is an asian concept… hollywood producers had been remaking lots of asian inspired films and stories ( the ring and ju-on: the grudge ), but they’re changing the concept and the storieline… not to mention videogames franchised in the states then renaming it ( biohazard to resident evil : duh? what’s the connection of the title to the story…?! ) or videogame made to film ( take silent hill for an example )… see, i’m not trying to be a racist… i just stick to the story and the concept…

    ok, can anyone here find a white person who’s name is japanese? take that for an example… piccolo, what happened to him? i thought he’s a nemic, but it seems like he’s a vampire…

    yo hollywood peeps!!! stick to the original, japanese story of dragonball if you want this project to be a huge success…

    January 7th, 2009 at 16:31 | #26

    hey guys have you seen the transformation of Goku, it doesn’t look like a big gorilla at all… hey Hollywood producers piccollo is green stick to the story or at least sit and watch the program…bulma has blue hair, Goku eats a lot not only hog dogs as i read in an spoiler…where is Krillin? he was supposed to be there..and he is a prove that DB is japanese..all this concept is japanese you producers MTF…are spending money in movies that you don’t even know how to make… Let’s hope the japanese make a 3D such as biohazrd degeneration, or Final Fantasy 7.

    @Olli Bendz: I agree that the time line is f’ed up but please watch the trailer piccallo is green,and there wasn’t crazy ass epic battles where people where thrown threw mountins on dragon ball,most of that all came in DBZ. dragon ball was more of a comedy than an action toon.

  37. January 19th, 2009 at 01:00 | #37

    oh men, i can’t w8 to watch this movie, i hope the effects are really cool….

    January 21st, 2009 at 23:49 | #38

    Seriously… why are there only a few voices of decent? Everyone is sooo happy with the way the movie is coming along…. why!? Goku is an alien who was trained at a very young age to fight, he met Krillian at that time and they are pretty much joined at the hip from then on. Earth’s Dragonballs were created by Kami not 7 mystics… the only race capable of creating Dragonballs as far as I know are Nameks not humans. I don’t think Goku ever went to school and since day one Master Roshi was an old perverted hermit not some middle aged harper.. Part of Goku’s charm is his never quit rush in and fight mentallity.. he’s a Saiyan, they fight, they live to fight. It is through fighting that they become stronger…. they are ALWAYS READY FOR THIS (^_^). I don’t think I need to point out Piccolo… I think enough people have mentioned that. No offense, but they took the names, some ideas, called it Dragonball while removing the essence of Dragonball. At their apparent ages this need be DragonballZ.. but even if they did that, it’s NOT Dragonball… it’s some mutated hybrid of SOME (very little) Dragonball content and a lot of Hollywood screwup… and all that from the trailer…. why? Why are people so happy??????

  39. Hyperion
    January 21st, 2009 at 23:57 | #39

    Why does Piccolo look like one of those Saibamen? Saw a pic of Yamcha…. huh!? This is shapping up to be an escuse to show off some special effects and ruin a lot of peoples expectations. Seriously… rename the movie, remove the little, and I do mean little, content that actually reflectes the Dragonball universe, and there might be a reason to watch. I’m not above eye candy, but I’m also a fan of the series and as such, I’m really REALLY disappointed with the direction this has gone.

    hey guys its time for some real martial arts action with a crazy twist looks alright for now but theres a lot to be tweeked i really hope and prey for all the db fans to c some origionality in the arts i feel the need for a sequeel inviloving vageta and nappa and for the rest of dbz and hopefully more movies into the freeza (super sayin) and beyond ie.ss4 and dbgt area ive been waiting for this movie more than even spider man do a good job or els. lol

    January 24th, 2009 at 22:47 | #41

    well i made a comment before i looked throught the site and this is my after comment!!!!!!! im affaraid for the success of the movie for one wheres the origional colors of costumes and characters i find it hard to believe in the feel of true db fans (u know who u are) pls for the life of the movie let there be room for growth and also as all the db fans will rally with me…….make picollo green its who he is……

    January 25th, 2009 at 00:00 | #42

    I really can not wait to see this.

    BUT……

    Seriously…. its obviously way too late, the HAIR is what made dragon ball. All I see on “Goku” is a cowlick. Take a look at some goth club pictures or at minimum japanesse fashion. Put some effort. I’ve read people crying that the attitude doesn’t match and things of that nature, but the HAIR needs to be on par!

    This will definitely be a box office hit. I’m 25 and still love my cartoons, specificly this one. I’m no die hard junkie about keeping things original and what not, but how are you going to continue a big screen series if almost every single charactor has giant spikes for hair and the movie doesn’t follow atleast on that.

    Anyways, Piccalo looks sweet. Supurb job on that. I really hope that there are more of these to come. I can not wait to see Freeza and my favorite…Trunks!!!

    Keep them coming. There are not enough movies of this nature.

    Maybe give CGI a shot for a series. Something along the lines of both the Appleseed’s or Final Fantasy : Advent Children. Just some food for thought. Can’t wait though!

    January 25th, 2009 at 00:14 | #43

    Having read Hyperion’s comment. Actually really on point. Considering that this is made through 20th Century Fox which I belive Xmen is as well. I think some collabiration is in order. In one of the makings of Xmen the creators said they denied many offers to turn their greatness into a movie due to the fact that it would be imposible and look like a joke which I believe as well they tried and recieve that outcome. There are many things that are not on par with the original series, which matters to a lot, but maybe not the masses. DB, DBZ and DB GT have a very big following and I know this for a fact. If strayed to far from its originality is will be murder to the series. Unlike Transformers when people were crying of it straying from originality(i.e. not looking like walking boxes)… As I said, personally I’d like to see the hair. Roshi is a pervert from the first appearance in the cartoon. Goku is a Saiyan, a race born to fight and demolish everything… not “I’m not ready…I’m scared.” So what it hes not happy go-lucky. Speak with the fellas from Xmen. I recall in “The making of” they had many issues with originality.

    Im waiting for this movie but im not expecting much from it Dragonball and Dragonball Z are just best as they were cartoons…and not acted because lets face it piccolo may look pretty evil and stuff but he doesnt look a thing like the piccolo we all know. And master roshi looks kinda lame sorry but thats my opinion.
