DBMB’s very own forum member Wasinthemovie (great name, huh?) says he was on the Dragonball set during the Mexico City filming. He makes some interesting claims about the film, and has a photo or two to back up his claims.
Here’s what he has to say:
I just listened to your latest podcast, the first one I’ve heard, and while I admire you’re optimism regarding the writing in my opinion it will be fairly shallow.
******SPOILER ALERT******
One of the first scenes we shot was Goku’s bike getting trashed by Texas Battles character “Carey Fuller’s” car. Chatwin says in an adolescent voice “Dude my Bike!”, to which Texas looks over at his friend and responds, “Did you just fart?”
So if that sounds like quality writing, then I guess it’ll be ok. Most of the dialog for the first 6 days follow this kind of teenage drivel…
I was lucky enough to be in the movie so I can only pray they didn’t cut me out of anything, I’m a huge fan so I am very grateful I was able to be in the film but from a critical fan’s point of view I’m going to hate at LEAST the opening scenes dialog, because I, and others, were cringing on set….
Anyway, I also have photo’s on set, I can probably get others, cause we were all taking them, especially of props, like Goku’s bike, etc….

He also adds, in reference to this photo:
This picture was during one of the few scenes I didn’t get into, I really wanted in these classroom scenes because they were all close ups but there was a lot of political crap going on with the extra casting people… anyway…
Goku with his classmates are looking at pictures of the moon which even a picture causes him to go into a trance and almost transforms him. Chatwin has to stare into the camera in this scene.
I was only on the set for the 6 days of Mexico City filming, I wasn’t chosen to go to Durango… more politics, so ya.
He also posted a new photo of Justin Chatwin and Texas Battle, as well as a never before seen magazine scan:
