I understand and acknowledge that it couldn’t be exactly like the anime series, however what I can tell from the trailer I am SEVERELY dissapointed. It looks like they took the name and concept of DB/DBZ, the names of the characters, and the powers, mixed it all in a blender and are trying to call it a DB Movie.

Grant it, everyone is trying to say its “DB” movie and not a “DBZ” movie frankly I don’t think its worth qualifying it as either.

I am not hating on any of the actors in this film, because there are a few of them that I like alot, however I definitely think this film is gonna be a major bust. There are to many DB and DBZ fans that are hoping to see what they love on the big screen with real people, and from what I can tell of the trailer this movie isn’t it.

I for one am completely refusing to watch the movie, I know it’ll just piss me off.

I am incredibly let down by what they are trying to pass off as DB, although I shouldn’t be terribly suprised considering this happens all the time…..(XMEN).

Basically, I think this movie is a complete disgrace that doesn’t deserve to be called DB.

1. Lord piccolo isn’t green in the movie because he is old (kami is very dark green almost brown in the anime) so when he comes back young as piccolo he will be a much lighter shade i.e GREEN

2. Iv’e seen the teaser trailer and for the most part it looks good, more realistic than the anime which isn’t what everybody wants but this is a “live action” movie were talking about so yes there will be ki blasts and yes there is flying and fighting and Goku and Piccolo and loads of other characters from the anime so it’s as close as the cast and crew could get to the anime without making it look cheesy and stupid thats why it’s not a carbon copy of the anime.

3. Fox have already announced that Dragonball is the first in a trilogy of movies so you can expect everything you wanted from DBZ to be in the second and third movies think of this one as a taster or warm up to the heavy ki blast fighting scenes (plus think how confused non fans of the anime are going to be if they dove straight in at the cell or buu sagas, so there doing this to show the entire world how good Dragonball really is).

and lastly if you are on this website then you are already a fan of Dragonball/Z/GT and you are going to see the movie regardless of what you say here so act like fans and show your support (i knw that 99 percent of people who have commented here have left good feedback, nice one guys/girls) so in closing yeah it’s not the anime, but then again we didn’t want another anime movie we wanted “live action” and thats what were getting, so relax sit back and just ENJOY THE DAMN MOVIE!!, lol

Just a thought.

i still think this movie will only make a decent money, not a hit. no offense.

I agree with you. The supporters of this movie and the people that wrote the script need to get laid more. They were the ones attempting to make it “real” for audiences or supporting that nonsense.
