May 10th, 2008 at 9:17 am
It would have been better if he was in his GI.
May 10th, 2008 at 9:30 am
terrible
May 10th, 2008 at 9:38 am
To the Anon above me.
Why is it terrible? Because it isn’t an exact clone of A FUCKING CARTOON!!!
Mate, its an adaptation. If you’re gonna say its bad atleast put a valid reason, otherwise you’re just another pathetic troll. Infact GTFO of this website.
May 10th, 2008 at 9:40 am
siiiiiiick
this film is gonna be nang
May 10th, 2008 at 9:44 am
@ jeff
this is even better then cgi!!!
whit cgi looks stupid
May 10th, 2008 at 9:46 am
He meant GI, as in uniform.
I actually like what Chatwin is weaing. Very oriental inspired.
May 10th, 2008 at 9:54 am
it’s horrible Oh my god nooooooon!!!!!
May 10th, 2008 at 9:55 am
@scarface078/tony
He said Gi not CGI…
The pic’s not bad, hopefully one with higher resolution come about soon (same deal with the “teaser poster”)
May 10th, 2008 at 9:58 am
Looks very interesting… just can’t wait to see the trailer! I don’t want “Dragonball 2009″ to come on screen I wanna see Chatwin as Goku in all his glory!
May 10th, 2008 at 10:19 am
yyyyyyaaaaaaayyyyyy
May 10th, 2008 at 10:22 am
ok i fuckin love this…… and the ki looks so real… i had my doubts about what the ki would look like and now i think they are going to actually make it look good….. i mean if that lil ki ball looks that good…. just think about the actual blast not to mention the freakin kamehameha wave!!!
May 10th, 2008 at 10:27 am
Don’t know if this helps, but the magazine that came from appears to be V-Jump.
May 10th, 2008 at 10:34 am
Is master rosi gonna have a hat?
I think (hope) its not a pic from the movie
May 10th, 2008 at 10:36 am
Hah. I like the hair!
They spruced it up afterall!
May 10th, 2008 at 10:39 am
sorry i thought i wrote cgi xD then i must agree better gi was better looking
May 10th, 2008 at 10:40 am
dubble post sorry wrote last post wrong
:
sorry i thought he wrote cgi xD then i must agree better gi was better looking
May 10th, 2008 at 10:40 am
why? Roshi had a had plenty of times in the anime.
May 10th, 2008 at 10:41 am
http://www.bsabas.net/bsabas_boys/C/chatwin_justin05.jpg
Uh, apparently Goku is also a homosexual. I can’t picture Goku dating Vegeta rather than fighting him. Ew.
May 10th, 2008 at 10:44 am
I wonder what it says?
May 10th, 2008 at 11:00 am
May 10th, 2008 at 11:02 am
In response to Jeff, Justin Chatwin is straight that picture you have there is from the show “Weeds” on Showtime he plays a homosexual character in the show.
May 10th, 2008 at 11:19 am
Okay… THIS is what I needed to get excited for the movie. Browsing imdb and other sites all I’ve found is crap about racism and better casting. hopefully that teaser is around the corner.
May 10th, 2008 at 11:22 am
Oh…My…God *drools*
I know I’m gonna like this movie!
May 10th, 2008 at 11:22 am
yes but where are roshis sunglasses, beard and mustage???
May 10th, 2008 at 11:32 am
Not to shabby, i liek it, the energy ball looks like a mini sun, makes me all tingly lookignat it, Goku just staring at the power in his hands AWSOME !!
Next up PICOOLO !!!
May 10th, 2008 at 11:49 am
Terrible man! Damn……he looks like a geak, nerd…….i´m so dissapointed
May 10th, 2008 at 11:56 am
i really like it a lot
i just hope that it is real 
May 10th, 2008 at 11:57 am
See thats so strange, Millions of fans were going…. OMG HES GONNA BE TERRIBLE Blah de blah…. and around half of them are now saying: WOW!
XD As most ppl are saying…. SHOW
AND BULMA ;D
May 10th, 2008 at 12:04 pm
Awesome, much better than I expected!
Justin Chatwin looks cute! Can’t wait for the trailer!!
I posted on the boards what it says:
ドラゴンボールハリウッド映画化!!
2009年春その夢がついに!
全世界に先駆け日本上陸決定!!
Hollywood making Dragonball into film!!
Finally the dreams come true in 2009 Spring!
It’s decided Japan landing in advance of the entire world!!
I’m unable to read the rest since text is too small. Hope this help and we can get some better quality of this pic!
May 10th, 2008 at 12:49 pm
It still bugs me. I think that we deserve at least a Gi, I mean I do love this pic but…. it just kind of feels out of place without the Gi…
May 10th, 2008 at 12:56 pm
Well, he can’t very well wear the gi the entire film now.
May 10th, 2008 at 1:00 pm
Energyyyyyyyyyyyy Blast!!!!!!!!!! Yessssssssssss!
I have to admit this is the best Dragonball pic. Im like totally blown away!!!! Now this is what Dragonball is all about. Justin chatwin looks like he came straight out of the show. This movie is going to be so freakin’ alwsome.
May 10th, 2008 at 1:18 pm
I should whoop yo ass for putting that on here it had nothing to do with the picture you weak ass hoe ass bitch ass stupid ass punk!!!
I like the picture also.
May 10th, 2008 at 2:16 pm
I don’t mind that the film is coming out in Japan before it comes out here, but I do wish Fox would throw the American fans a bone and release some promotional images online.
As for Goku not wearing a gi in this image — it’s obvious that the picture is nothing more than a promotional image, so I don’t mind that he’s not wearing a gi. Besides, we know the gi comes later (based on some of those set photos, the gi will be the proper orange and blue).
More importantly than the shirt is the hair — they got the hair about as spot on as they ever could in a live action film. I like the way it’s layered and spiked. Well done, make-up team!
May 10th, 2008 at 2:18 pm
What is this, I wonder. Is it a promo shot? And the whole debate over whether goku’s asian needs to end. Chatwins clearly portraying an alien from some other planet who’s been raised in some kind of asian culture.
May 10th, 2008 at 2:29 pm
Judging from the pictures, Chatwin and Rossum appear as they do in the movie. So I’d say yes, that is what Chow Yun Fat will look like as Master Roshi, which would be pretty stupid as he looked more like Roshi in Pirates of the Caribbean than he would in the actual Dragon Ball film.
May 10th, 2008 at 2:33 pm
Hey Jeff that picture you posted of Justin in the pool with another guy was on a show “weeds”..thats not really he was on the first episode as a gay kid..lol..just thought i let you know
May 10th, 2008 at 2:35 pm
misspelled..that was not real..it was on a show Weeds
May 10th, 2008 at 2:38 pm
dang this picture is badass…..cant wait for the movie
May 10th, 2008 at 2:51 pm
Yes I agree I wish we American fans would get some credit, but It doesn’t really matter. Im still excited to see it in Japan!!!! I think Master Roshi is teaching him the Kamahamaha in that pic.
May 10th, 2008 at 3:00 pm
whos the character next to chow yun fats picture it sorta looks like gohan
May 10th, 2008 at 3:01 pm
Amsterdam
tog iemand nog van nederland haha
May 10th, 2008 at 3:28 pm
ik ook
May 10th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
yea…that does look like gohan cause the actual person definately isnt justin chatwin
May 10th, 2008 at 3:40 pm
Sgt.pepper54321 Thats Chatwin! Look right next to his head its a pic of goku!
May 10th, 2008 at 3:41 pm
OH MY FUCKING HOLY GOD!!
May 10th, 2008 at 3:44 pm
I actually dont think thats an energy ball, i mean, look at gokus face, he isnt struglin to make it, and this is suppose to be the first movie…. I honestly think thats a dragonball that lit up when it gets near other ones, maybe in the movie they will float or maybe it was the last one to get it next to the other 6 and starting floatin…. either way, i have my money that thats not an energy ball but a dragonball….
Victor, your crazy…..
May 10th, 2008 at 3:46 pm
dude goku did the kamehameha easily WHIT OUT struglin c’mon its goku the powerfulest saiyan he isnt meant to be from earth you know, for videl it was hard yes.. NOT GOKU
think people think! - friends(monica geller)
May 10th, 2008 at 4:02 pm
i still say they could have given him bangs. he still looks cool. btw anyone who says speed racer would bomb sucks. Speed Racer kicked ass. i saw it opening day.
May 10th, 2008 at 4:06 pm
um i think thats a dragon ball too, Kamehameha’s aren’t that small, and he would be in a different position. uh… just my 2 cents
May 10th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
Victor Did you not listen to what Gohan said when he was teaching Videl how to fly and make physical kai blasts? He said that one must stay calm for it to work other wise your just tensing up. Heres the episode: http://www.otakucenter.com/dragon-ball-z-ep-t2475.html
May 10th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
this is astounding, the more realistic they make it, the more powerful it becomes, and more appealing to the audience, especially young adults (im not talking about 6 yr old kids). this is what dragonball is about. you capture the excitment of the animation into a reality. now it’s understandable why the talking animals were omitted from the movie, and why Justin kept his original hair. the more realistic the movie is, the more effective it becomes. I strongly think this movie is going to pull it off.
May 10th, 2008 at 4:30 pm
I like how they touched up Goku’s hair
. I can not wait to see this in theaters ( I just finished watching Iron Man and can not wait to see some similar effects executed in this movie).
May 10th, 2008 at 5:07 pm
Hah. That’s not the Spirit Bomb. That’s not even a Dragonball. I think that’s just a ki ball. Remember he didn’t know how to use those when he was younger so Master Roshi probably taught him that.
I am really disappointed with how they’re making Master Roshi. He’s an old man. There’s really no way to explain why they did this other than to make “creative” changes. They’ll probably explain it as since Master Roshi drank from the Fountain of Youth, he stays young.
Or they’ll change the story so that it was Grandpa Gohan who trained Master Roshi.
P.S: Stop with the damn skits.
May 10th, 2008 at 5:31 pm
Well i have one question for all….
Do you guys tought that the movie would not be amazing?We are talking about 20th century fox people and if it was bad first they would not released it and second they would not sign for 2 more movies after seen this one…
My opinion its better then i expected.
May 10th, 2008 at 5:43 pm
@RazorBlade: I think this movie has potential and can be great. But your logic is idiotic. Fox has released a number of bad movies and made sequels to them. Furthermore, if the movie is really bad and makes horrible profits, the actors and director have a right to nullify the contract. So While I think this movie can be great, we can’t think that just because Fox is making the movie that it will be great. They’ve released LOTS of bad movies.
May 10th, 2008 at 6:25 pm
LOVE IT!!!
May 10th, 2008 at 6:55 pm
not bad at all, but I’m still waitin on that Piccolo pic!!!
May 10th, 2008 at 7:12 pm
thats an energy ball.
the dragonball is tied to his upper arm.
oh and we’ll prolly start seeing some promotionals, cause didnt they say that they wanted at least a year of promotions?
May 10th, 2008 at 7:32 pm
There is no real Dragon Ball in this stop making stuff up.
May 10th, 2008 at 7:41 pm
check the left bicep
May 10th, 2008 at 7:47 pm
I’m still on the fence.
It’s not bad but I hope he beefs up a little bit.
I know they can’t make it exactly like the anime but I’m not very forgiving because of how huge of a part DB & DBZ played in my childhood.
Sidenote: I believe he’s looking at a dragonball.
Some people were saying it’s a ball of energy or something but I imagine the DBs are the focus of the film (based on the anime) so yeah…
I think the image near his arm is part of a picture that was cut off in the scan. It doesn’t look like part of the actual photo. The DB’s are a bit larger than that image too.
I don’t think we’re making stuff up Jeff.
It’s just speculation. no one is calling anything they’ve said a fact.
May 10th, 2008 at 7:56 pm
I love how everyone thats complaining about Goku’s hair seemed to completely overlook that fact that his hair is brown… not black. that kinda bothers me but not a whole lot
May 10th, 2008 at 8:02 pm
I really wonder about his voice!
I know it won’t be anything like Sean but I wonder if he adopted a bit of a Goku tone or something.
May 10th, 2008 at 8:14 pm

May 10th, 2008 at 8:30 pm
I still Think Justin is too small he need to bulk up 10 - 15 pounds would be nice but maybe he will for the next movie.
May 10th, 2008 at 8:32 pm
ooks good
but i am dissapointed with the comments on comingsoon.net and several other websites that have posted this pic. Everyone is complaining and saying justin should be buffed up and that it should have been played by an asian.
Very dissapointed.
Hopefully the movie makes good money and we can get a sequel but with so much negativity surrounding the project i think it will be hard for it to make money. Infact from what I am hearing this movie has the most negative buzz of all the movies fox has ever done.
Also those expecting master roshi like the cartoon will be dissapointed. He won’t be pervert and he won’t have moustache and beard.
May 10th, 2008 at 10:37 pm
DBiscool I agree that there has been alot of bad press surrounding this movie but you have to look at it from a fans standpoint. Hell look at it from a logical standpoint. I’ve asked fans and non-fans alike and they agree this movie already looks to ruin a great franchise. Goku and the Dragonball series visually is about muscles and crazy hair. Ok they got the hair. But at least they could’ve had the damn boy put on some weight. Because Goku has NEVER been a skinny surfer looking kid. And the fact that he’s American I dont care because we know why that the US is incapable of making a movie without throwing a white face in the lead role ( Forbidden Kingdom anyone?) And its sad but stupidly true. And Master Roshi not being is perverted and normal self will also take away from the story as well. I understand it is an adaptation. But for those not familiar to the series will get a very bad start into the world of DB.
May 10th, 2008 at 10:45 pm
To all the fans who are unhappy with this pic…well, too bad I guess lol. If you’re going to diss the movie before you even see anything remotely signifigant, there’s no way you’re going to enjoy it- that’s the truth. And maybe that’s what you want. If you need everything to be like the anime, then watch the anime.
Oh, and JP, here’s a hq pic of the scan, thanks to the japanese 2ch boards ( feel free to host from my blog):
http://clearblogs.com/uploads/d/dukemon22/48224.jpg
May 10th, 2008 at 10:46 pm
Just noticed something- the american release date, according to the article is April 3rd, 2009
May 10th, 2008 at 10:57 pm
Oh and another thing that makes me mad about the choices made in this movie is….NO KRILLIN!!!!! How do you even think about making a Dragonball movie without Krillin. He is an essential part of Goku’s life and training. Not to mention thats like making a Superman movie where Lois Lane doesn’t exist. Period
May 10th, 2008 at 10:59 pm
And duke its not about things being exactly like the anime but you have to admit. A skinny american play goku, no krillin, and mster roshi not being the original guy we know. I know its an adaptation but at least TRY and make it somewhat close to the original anime.
May 10th, 2008 at 11:03 pm
the original anime would not work on the big screen period.
Krillin was dead during the Piccolo Saga, and as much as I love Krillin, he would be put to no use in this movie, which is probably why they went with having goku have school friends instead of introducing the z fighters only to have them fail immediately.
He, Tien, Chaotzu and the others are better off saved for the sequel, where they can give them some proper screen time.
And as super-muscular as goku is, the character in dragonball was not. The movie is trying to be realisitc. Goku’s not a body builder, he’s a martial artist.
May 10th, 2008 at 11:41 pm
wowee,
this indeed does look shocking, as does the new GI Joe film…
but the thought does cross the mind, why on earth would you make a live action version of DBZ series? its just great the way it is and a long saga!! this instead will be squashed into hmm lets thing three films maybe? it’s like the american film companies going to remake AKIRA in a fucking live action format?! for like what cause?!
it’s just sad…
May 11th, 2008 at 12:33 am
good comment dukemon22… very rational
my only doubt about that pic is the energy ball thing… it looks like a glowing lens flare!?? y cant vfx company be a bit more creative
May 11th, 2008 at 12:34 am
that looks nothing like goku this movie will suck
May 11th, 2008 at 12:37 am
[...] Dragon Ball Movie Blog were sent scans from a Japanese magazine showing the first image of Justin Chatwin as Goku. [...]
May 11th, 2008 at 1:27 am
yes i understand that but still if you watch the cartoon goku for one never went to school and two although he wasn’t a body builder he still had more muscles than Justin does. And like i said I dont want the original anime in the movie and this is NOT the piccolo saga in the move FYI
May 11th, 2008 at 1:38 am
Hmmm, it’s a Ki ball, Justin’s hair is realistic yet you can tell it’s Goku, he don’t need mucles really, he was pretty scrawny in Dragonball when compared to Z. As for Krillin, i’m sad he isn’t involved but i think like someone said above, he and other main characters will be brought in at a later time =] Fox just wanna suprise us I reckon. Go Chatwin!!
I like!
May 11th, 2008 at 1:41 am
i heard from my brothers friends mums sisters cousins great grandads uncles sons sisters brotheres dads cousins brothers mums sons sisters brother that master roshi wont be wearing the cool glasses int he film
May 11th, 2008 at 3:03 am
pls look to the boards i’ve found a better version of this picture
May 11th, 2008 at 3:16 am
If you guys think this movie is great, then the upcoming sequels will be even better. Remember, dragonball wasn’t about muscles, relatively to dbz. In order to initiate a story, you have to have a groundzero and build your way up from there. IF this movie is to have lots of ki blasts or special attacks, it wouldn’t be too great. I think it’s better if they build up the story line and mix abit of dbz fighting style to get the audience excited. Don’t be dissapointed if you don’t see alot of muscles in this one. As long as they capture the excitment, it’s all set.

May 11th, 2008 at 3:19 am
in order for goku to have muscles, he needs lots of trainings. in dbz we see alot of that (i.e, 100x gravity, other world, etc…) it’s all part of the story. you can’t just skip all this and mount muscles on Justin just yet. It wouldn’t make sense from realistic point of view.
May 11th, 2008 at 3:41 am
i hope its gonna turn out good coz rite now, it doesnt look like its gonna be good at all
May 11th, 2008 at 4:10 am
well trunks and goten didnt got much muscles so why are you guys even caMe up whit this muscle probleme
he dont need to ok in the sequals he must be but thats not probleme sequals are far away from now
May 11th, 2008 at 4:16 am
This looks like a training uniform. It must be a scene in Kami’s temple where he first creates a Ki ball.
May 11th, 2008 at 4:22 am
can someone translate that whole bottom paragraph on the new scan? i also noticed it said March 2009 for the japanese release, but April-3 2009 for the world-wide release.
May 11th, 2008 at 4:29 am
http://dbthemovie.com/images/hq.jpg better quality
May 11th, 2008 at 5:11 am
TO ppl confused about the due dates and what not, its released in MArch in Japan, but later in April in the US…
BY THE WAY THIS LOOKS FANTABULOUS for even a picture taken thru a camera or something (probably messed up the the Ki ball a bit, it does look fake and all, or maybe thats the doing of the Shonen Jump editors? i duno) OMGOSH I GET TO SEE CHATWINS HAIR AND FACE WOWOWOWOOW!!! (he looks cute btw)
and fr those flamers whining about his skinniness and what not, shud anyon complain that much, when DB itself isnt all about being buff but about the epicness and the story? Cmon hes got time to train for the next movie~~~ This IS ONLY THE BEGINNING!!!!!!
May 11th, 2008 at 5:15 am
but I gotta say, Roshi cudve at least looked more like Sao Feng from Pirates of Teh Carribean 3….

WOW!! his hair looks incredible
i’ve gotaa hand it 2 them they did a good job on deciding how the hair will look. Bravo to the hair stylist. c’mon trailer 
May 11th, 2008 at 8:11 am
is amazing
btw id bet that chow fat is not in character in that picture
May 11th, 2008 at 8:36 am
Goku’s hair is sideways orientated, not up, that style looks stupid as well
May 11th, 2008 at 8:38 am
recall seeing an image of roshi’s stunt double wearing
a bald cap so yes roshi is not in character
May 11th, 2008 at 8:45 am
dbthemovie.com has a clear image of it now.
May 11th, 2008 at 8:46 am
So do I. . .
May 11th, 2008 at 8:56 am
Looks awesome. i cannot wait. wooooot
May 11th, 2008 at 9:29 am
May 11th, 2008 at 9:32 am
Calm down everyone. Be positive and just keep expectations low. Maybe then we can enjoy the movie.
May 11th, 2008 at 9:33 am
Awsome
May 11th, 2008 at 9:54 am
i feel so sorry for the jackasses who say that he dont look like GOKU……WTF!!!….!
THE SCANS ARE AWWWSOMMEE!
THIS MOVIE IS GONA BIG!
May 11th, 2008 at 9:56 am
Hum, you’d think Shueshia would choose glossy paper to put that on instead of what appears to be Manga paper. Aswell, this appears to be lacking the V-Jump, or Weekly Jump logos splatered around the corners. Aswell as a lack of page numbers. Then again, this could be an ad placed by FOX, and not an actual article. But it’s sure odd that an ad features so much text, as well as a lack of a website to bring people to. Smells fishy to me.
Anyways, what Chatwin is wearing in the main picture reminds me of some of Team Canada’s apparel for the Beijing Olympics. Although it isn’t, it just reminds me so.
May 11th, 2008 at 9:57 am
May 11th, 2008 at 9:59 am
ok for the people who are blaming this by sayin chatwin is nothing like goku are wrong…. this is dragonball not dbz or dbgt ok……. in dragonball goku wasnt this big burly nappa!
VS 
in the last few episodes where goku was grown up a lil he was still small and what mae him strong was his spirit. his hair is fine…. so what if its not parted to an angle or whatever its still in goku form. and the energy ball…… theres no telling what that is i mean damn its not like they are doing the story right anyway… from what ive read gohan is killed by piccolo not great ape goku. but if i had to say anything about the energy ball….. for all we know it could be the first spirit bomb…. i mean the one in dbz that got thrown at vegeta was small. i mean it looks like a small spirit bomb but i doubt it is…… like i said this is db not dbz, but who knows how they are going to do the story.
May 11th, 2008 at 10:17 am
sweet pic…!

And for the trailer like, 10,000

Wow he looks a lot like Goku down in the panel on the bottom of the page!

Robert -
It was a tie. Goku was stronger than Superman and could kick his ass, but Superman can’t die so it was a draw.
May 11th, 2008 at 12:52 pm
Goku would obliterate Superman.
May 11th, 2008 at 12:55 pm
I don’t know about this country, but there has been virtually unanimous booing against the movie from people coming from countries that actually have a true dragonball culture when this page came out. Won’t surprise me if the people over there set up boycotts and the movie flops.

Freaking sweet that they gave the first official media to Shonen Jump, the place that started it all.
and on the superman debate:
Goku (when he turns SSJ for the first time) could destroy the earth no question. Superman could beat the goku from the beginning of the manga to about 23th Budokai Tenkaichi. but not after.
May 11th, 2008 at 1:33 pm
This dosent look bad, I wonder which tecnique is Justin doing in this picture?
May 11th, 2008 at 1:50 pm
To the Goku vs Superman debate, Superman can move planets with his strength(do some research on superman its true), Goku can’t even at ssj 4. I mean don’t get me wrong I love Goku and he is strong so all he has to do is get a hold on Goku and don’t let go, far as the speed go’s its pretty much a tie and the energy blast well it all depends with one it is a super kahmama(spelt righ?) at ssj 4 then he would be able to hurt him good but by the time Goku summonds enough power to do it Superman can get to him in time so I would pick Superman on this one.
May 11th, 2008 at 2:08 pm
OMG! WTF, I knew it was terrible when they casted Justin Chatwin, I mean, is it me or was Goku taller and Stronger, and I mean, they should have cast a totla unknown like they did for Superman, Im sad, movie looks extremely cheesy, but it make millions simply off of the name. WHY????
May 11th, 2008 at 2:13 pm
SHut up Know ONE cares about super man and yes yes goku can movie planets and yes yes goku can hurt superman and yes yes GOKU IS WAY BETTER AND KNOW ONE CARE ABOUT SUPERMAN SO SHUT UP.
May 11th, 2008 at 2:30 pm
Whoa Whoa people, let’s calm down. You guys are getting off the subject. If you want to star a big long debate about who’s stronger, Goku or Superman. Then go to the boards and create a topic, but don’t flood this with pointless debating. Its giving Piccolo a headache
May 11th, 2008 at 2:40 pm
Sorry i was just meaning that we shouldn’t even talk about superman here this is a dragonball site not superman
May 11th, 2008 at 2:45 pm
Were does it say Goku can move (not movie get it right) planets? Like I said he is strong but not stronger then Superman know your charactors before you committe alright HInkle and this is my last time comiiting on this subject.

This image is amazing. They are right on par.
May 11th, 2008 at 4:40 pm
Iraine
because people are fools. They should be glad they are getting a movie on it while other studios said “fuck dragonball it sucks”
May 11th, 2008 at 5:10 pm
I don’t think anyone else has pointed this out but its about noon Monday in japan right now. All I’m saying is that jp you might wanna stay up for a while because we might get some news over night
May 11th, 2008 at 5:12 pm
[...] scan from the Dragon Ball Movie Blog reveals our first look at the live action [...]
May 11th, 2008 at 6:03 pm
Hey JP here you say you love the image while on superherohype you say you are not a fan of the image.
Whats up dude?
May 11th, 2008 at 6:30 pm
I noticed that also DBiscool. What is up JP?
May 11th, 2008 at 6:53 pm
Not a fan of DorkyFresh’s manip.
May 11th, 2008 at 8:12 pm
I hate when people ask “WHY MAKE A DBZ LIVE ACTION FILM? ITS FINE JUST THE WAY IT IS”… exactly its fine the way it is, SO WHY NOT make a live action film for fun… thats why we have live action films so we can see an adaptation with REAL people.
May 11th, 2008 at 10:26 pm
His arm looks better, more buff in the HQ version.
Woot
May 11th, 2008 at 11:19 pm
about the superman thing…anyone can take him down. i say this because he has a weakness agaisnt kryptonite. it may not be easy to get a hold of it..but any person can access it. so that being said..
Goku wins regardless
May 12th, 2008 at 2:11 am
coooool about this movie I don’t know but the pic is good looks good enough for a good movie.And people that’s not justin chatwin from this day on he is goku.
He is me
May 12th, 2008 at 5:34 am
Should of at least made his hair black.
May 12th, 2008 at 5:45 am
^ya his hair is kinda dry. But who cares.
I just hope fox releases an official teaser poster and trailer sometime by the end of august.
Ya i heard someone saying they will start showing stuff from june or july but i bet they won’t. They will leave it all till comic con if they are taking part in it. Last year they didn’t because of some fights they had with the president of comic con. Hopefully they have solved it now.
But I am pretty sure they will release something in August. If not then I can’t help but say that the movie will be in trouble financially.

look at how people are reacting to the pic.
Seriously I will cry if this movie dissapoints at boxoffice and we don’t get a sequel of saiyan saga.
I have never seen this much negativity. A smart studio would have released HQ quality amazing photos to curb any negativity or release some kind of footage. I mean it really doesn’t take much time to make a teaser trailer. I remember for f42 movie fox released a trailer so soon when the shooting wasn’t even half complete and it did create some positive buzz.
I bet you on asian forums the comments must be worse.
Please god if you aren’t racist make this movie a major blockbuster.
May 12th, 2008 at 6:51 am
dont worry i bett ya they can’t even name the best friend of goku krillin!
those people never seen a cool saga of dbz like of frieza saga, majin buu saga and that kind of saga’s
May 12th, 2008 at 8:52 am
All I can say is “OMG”.
