Here’s the fourth video from Cloud Strife of the fight between Chi Chi and Mai at the tournament. These videos often get taken down as soon as they come, so watch it now!

Cloud has also provided a shot of Randall Duk Kim in Durango.

A user at Jenova has some photos from the set of dragonball, revealing in better quality what the ‘Fullum Assassins’ look like. I have to say, they don’t look very ‘PG’ to me. . .

EDIT: The first two photos where removed by request of the person who took them.

Screen Daily has a report on the 20th Century Fox presentation at the 2008 Cinema Expo in Amsterdam. According to the site, Dragonball footage was shown at the reel presentation. 

Delegates were also shown footage/trailers/teasers for thriller Mirrors (starring Kiefer Sutherland), French box-office hit Taken (starring Liam Neeson), Mark Wahlberg’s new film Max Payne, The X-Files: I Want To Believe, Dragonball, romantic comedy Bride Wars (starring Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway), Night At The Museum 2, and unseen footage of Tom Cruise Second World War drama Valkyrie.

Is the trailer closer than we think?

RUMOR: I was told that the teaser may appear with the July 18th Fox film Space Chimps. Not sure how reliable this may be so take it with a grain of salt. 

UPDATE: Christina Inman tells Dragonball Live that the teaser will be released in November or December (Which we reported here). 

UPDATE 2: Here is what Film1 has to say:

“It’s definitely true that they’ve shown a teaser of Dragonball, but it’s just a couple of short scenes. Because of the enormous amounts of trailers, teasers, clips and films shown at the Expo, I can’t remember exactly what I saw, but I remember that it was cool!”

Comingsoon.net via FilmBlog has the first official Dragonball Banner/Theater Standee! 

Hopefully we get a HQ version soon.

EDIT: Hey guys, please upload the image on your own Photobucket/Imageshack accounts instead of hot-linking it from here. I know you’re all excited, but the hot-linking is creating a bad lag on my server! I think the last thing we all want is for DBMB to be down at this time. 

EDIT 2: Cleaned up version thanks to Marcus.

DBMB reader Tallal has provided us with some info from the Dragonball set. This report is from the Mexico City/High School shoot. This is the filming that took place from late November to mid December before production was moved to Durango.

There were vaious scenes in the highschool during about the first half of the story. They had 4 groups of differnt extras. The 4 groups were, Outside the school, Inside the school, Goku’s class room, and the hall ways. There were about a good 20 people in each shot. The scene he was in was the outside of the school. This was the first shot they show of the school, Goku was walking in down the street to get to school. He crossed the road, and got to the school. The first few promotional pics were for that scene. How ever there was speculation going around that there was a car crash… there was no car crash in that scene. Either they added it in later I dont no but that was the scene. 

Working with the crew was amazing, even though I was only there for 2 weeks I got to meet Justin Chatwin. He was soo comitted to getting Goku right. He, in my opinion, took this movie more seriously then anyone else. James wong was a great director, he just basiclly told us what to do and we all just went and did that scene. I was surprised that for 1 of the scenes there were quite a few blocking mistakes but he decided that the scene was all right. It felt a bit rushed through out those 2 days because we managed to cram in almost 20 scenes in 1 day. Everyone was in a constant rush. I didnt get too meet any other cast member personally other than Justin. I did see James Marsters but I didnt see Emmy any where. James Marsters was another one of the guys who made sure he gave 100 %. I cant say much about the sets because it would be breaking my agreement. But I can say that the sets that I saw were astonishing. It felt like these sets took years to make, but in fact it only took a few months. Everything felt like it was in the right place at the right time. The extras were also used as extras in the tournament. We were the audience. They just basically told us that go crazy. Yell as loud as you can!

The promoting of the film wont start for a while. We were told that about late October to mid November we can see a teaser trailer, but hopefully it will come out before. This movie has alot of surprises that no one would ever expect. Working in James Wong’s adaptaion of Dragonball was amazing, and I cant wait to see this movie when it comes out next April.
