Japanese, anyone? Plus Banner Contest. . .
A new blog from Eriko seems to have appeared on her site. However google translator sucks! Hopefully one of you guys can translate it (without using internet translators please) so I can post it here.
IMDB’s Sour Mikan has a decent translation:
The filming was wrapped! finally..finally !!! The last shooting was the scene of I and James, it took till night, the moment when it finished, Paul shouted ”Eriko’s wrapped!” I was filled with emotion. Jim said happily, ”We did it!!” staring my eyes, we hugged one another and shared our joy. and Rod stood by us, at the moment, I felt we could relate to one another without words. After talking with Tim a few words, there became to like a photo session, crews and Mexican workers took a lot of photos with us. all ended, I came back to the trailer with my friends coming from LA. I signed my autograph to various thing, and we got into a brought car, we left the set. After we came back to the hotel, I and my friends went to Jim’s home, there happened to be Rob who is cinematographer and Paul and Jim, they partied only male, we joined them and drunk a little, and we talked genuinely about the past days of Durango and we had a very happy time.
and we came back to the hotel again, I packed up in a hurry. baggage for two months are so much but I didn’t no time to rest, soon I got into a brought car and went to the Durango airport and came back with Jim and Rod by the same airplane.
I learned a lot of thing. Until now I experienced various movies and TV in Japan. but It’s my first time to work in American studio’s movie. the long shooting for two and half months and the location place couldn’t understood English, at first I feared I couldn’t know what to do and felt close to tears.
But when the shooting wrapped, its fulfillment and accomplishment and quality time we spent together was forgotten all hard time and I felt only delightful and happy feeling. I understood how hard time or role, I can do it with thinking it will end some day. I did various work in Japan, I intended to know it, but there was no one who Japanese, different language, I experienced alone and all thing was new to me , I felt various thing like a first thing like a baby.
I’m sorry for delay to update this blog, I wrote this soon when it ended, but after I came back to LA, there was still so much left to do. and during I did it, I forgot the login name and password so I couldn’t login…![]()
I also thought it might be interesting to have a banner contest. You guys have created such amazing fan art (please send more!) that I thought I should put those skills to the test. Create a new 600×150 banner for this very site and e-mail it to me.. then I’ll post a select few (my favorite 3-4) and we’ll have a little vote. I think it could be fun, and will certainly pass the time here.

Wrapped
P
hotographing ended.A t last, at last!!!The instant” Eriko’s wrapped where where me and James ends most lastly, catches after all to the night and finishes!”With Paul shouted, as for me the chest became all the way with deep emotion.Jim delightfully so” We did it!!” With looking at my eye which faces, you said, we rejoiced to hold.And immediately Rod standing on side, word was not used between the instantaneous us and the feeling which the [te] is recognized was flowing.After Tim and word were exchanged, when it becomes already the photograph conference, meets to the photograph attacking of the Mexican people of everyone and the worker of crew, everything ends and it faces to the trailer to the friend and simultaneous it has come from loss, signs in various ones and rides the car of receiving set was designated as afterwards.

Hello, I got my japanese friend on this one, she should give me a translation soon. I’ll post it here if no one found anything better by then
(not to mean that this translation is all that bad, but I seriously have a hard time following what’s going on hehe)
April 28th, 2008 at 4:48 pm
cool, let’s go.
April 28th, 2008 at 4:51 pm
yeah, a new translation will make more sense. this one hurt my head.
April 28th, 2008 at 5:55 pm
Great site !
thx 4the info
April 28th, 2008 at 6:02 pm
There’s no much to understand Hopefully we may I get a good translation.
I can’t wait to see a trailer
A latinamerican fan desperated to see some new images from the movie
April 28th, 2008 at 6:13 pm
Ya i just used googles language tools to translate the page for me. She kinda goes on about how wonderful it was to shoot, how its nice to be finished, and the anxiety that came with it. She mentioned something about it being her first time working with an american studio and she wondered if it would be the last. The google translator isnt perfect, it sounds like someone with really broken english talking to you hehe. But ya it sounds like its a wrap in mexico and now they are probly moving on to graphics i would think.

banner contest, eh? I suck at that kind of stuff, maybe I’ll put an effort into it after finals.
April 29th, 2008 at 2:25 am

Wow! I wish i was an actor on Dragonball T_T
April 29th, 2008 at 6:59 am
she seems cool and all - but she kinda acts like she has no idea what dragonball is, she just got the part and was like “okay, yeah i’ll do it - what’s dragonball again?”
April 29th, 2008 at 11:30 am
lebnash1 “banner 1 is sick but the dragonball need to be seen abit more but the banner is amazing tho”
April 29th, 2008 at 12:49 pm

I should have said this earlier today when I found out, but I was too lazy to. Anyway, I’m saying it now. The movie poster is real. Fox asked the website who posted it to remove it so that pretty much confirms it.
April 29th, 2008 at 3:03 pm
holimation thats mad man good job if i could do anythin close to that i would enter as well
April 29th, 2008 at 3:31 pm
Lebnash, I’m incredibly impressed. I especially dig the first two. Keep up the good work.
April 29th, 2008 at 4:44 pm
Lebnash1 Nice Job on the banners. The first one is amazing! =D
April 29th, 2008 at 5:33 pm
oo interesting, I wonder if she’ll have an accent then, most likely but I hope she got a good translator too
April 29th, 2008 at 5:46 pm
Holmination, I really like urs. u should definitely enter it.
April 29th, 2008 at 6:44 pm
I dont think this one is as good. I wanted to get a Shenron in there?????

April 29th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
I don’t think we have discuss this but how are they going to get a kid about 3-6 years old to do some fighting in the second movie? I mean is their kids out their that can do that? with all of the stunts and energy blast etc. What do you guys think?
April 29th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
When I mean kid I mean Gohan!!!!
April 29th, 2008 at 6:49 pm
In response to LSB, Gohan will most likely either just get erased from this Live Action Interpretation or they will cast a 4-5 year old that plays more of a side-character that cheers on the rest of the cast instead of getting his hands dirty.
April 29th, 2008 at 6:50 pm
^^^^^ (I’m talking about the Sequel by the way) I know there will be no Gohan in this film.
April 29th, 2008 at 6:52 pm

This kid could be Gohan. He’s a triple black belt gymnast and body builder.
I think he’s pretty old now like 15 or so but damn, he’s got some muscles.
April 29th, 2008 at 7:03 pm
Thanks Zanny, It was put together pretty quickly
April 29th, 2008 at 7:34 pm
Hey did anyone notice that when you look up ernie hudson on wikipedia it says he is playing Mr.Popo in the dragonball? Maybe it is a mistake but who knows.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ernie_Hudson
April 29th, 2008 at 8:11 pm
Take that info with a grain of salt.
I read a while ago about Justin Chatwin on Wikipedia. Right at the end of the description of his life it said he was an alien and also gay….
You see what I mean.
April 29th, 2008 at 8:36 pm
Lmao, wiki cant be trusted, cuz we all know that someone that is as hot as Justin Chatwin just cant be gay XD
and Holmination, i like it with the dragon, but it looks slightly bunched up, maybe if u remove April 2009, it might look better… ^_^
April 29th, 2008 at 9:00 pm
Yeah I know, It was really rushed. when I get more time I’ll fix it up.
And Justin Chatwin is the best.
April 29th, 2008 at 9:09 pm
Actually Holmination it said he played in a gay role.
April 30th, 2008 at 4:27 am
Gohan didn’t really do a whole lot of fighting until Namek…
April 30th, 2008 at 4:47 am
Yeah, I’d think that Gohan would end up being a side-character. Unless they find some kid who knows martial arts or something, for all we know Gohan may be just a baby or something.
May 4th, 2008 at 11:00 pm
I don’t know what they are going to do for Gohan, but the fact that they are making a Dragonball/Z trilogy is awesome! I’m just so releived that those retard posters arent real…they look so bad…Lebnash1 made 4 better posters!http://www.dragonballmovieblog.net/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_mad.gif
