    You are spot on Psyke, that video is awesome. It's even cooler that I actually know half of those actors/actresses and from a visual standpoint, they are excellent matches. Thanks for the link.

Where the dreamer and his dream?

    Some of those were spot on. XD

    Who's that pretty girl that supposed to play Bulma?

    Mika Nakashima as #18? Not too bad...

    At this point I think Mika Nakashima could do anything.. <3

    Then again I thought that of Jun Matsumoto... until he did Bambino.. that was a disaster..

    That's Nakagawa Shouko (中川翔子), a popular gravure idol, actress, and seiyuu.

    I think i've seen the video, but I can't make sure. Youtubes blocked and I can't find a damned proxy. >.> I'm pretty sure its the same though because the Bulma one was the one that made me really say 'perfect' choice.

    The 'Nappa' guy was awesome. I can't remember the actors name though. =(

    I saw some really fitting suggestions though, especially for master Roshi but the guy I saw is unfortunately dead at the moment.

    All I know is, this movies gotta be halfway decent at least because you can't market something 'only' on hype and popularity alone.

    (Though there are some cases of this, I doubt that can be reproduced with this movie)

    I'm down for that, but I'm not planning on paying.

    don't worry...The person who has faith in this movie is the one who gets the tab.

    I think I'll make my pre-judgement when they come up with a trailer.

    They need to hurry up with it. WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT.

    Damnit. Suspense is a bitch.

    American Goku might look like this if he ever went super saiyan:

    I don't know if anyone has linked the IMDB for the DBZ movie, but the casting and pictures I've seen lead me to believe that this is going to be the Transformers of 2009. In other words: Disappointing.

    Yet, Transformers was highly successful.

    So were the Spice Girls, but that doesn't make them a worthwhile enterprise. Commercial success isn't a measure of quality.

    They could salvage a good movie out of this with a lot of humor and cool special effects, and a lot of harking back to the original source material. If they make enough of a connection with DB fans, it would be successful and worthwhile. If they stray too far from the DB world and just use namesakes and concepts, it will fail.

    Was I basing it solely on commercial success? No. Fact is that the great majority enjoyed the film, and that it enjoyed commercial success it's a bonus. Just because a couple of people cry, scream, and kick that they didn't like the movie, doesn't mean it wasn't a good movie because overall it was.

    *i didn't take time to read through all 8 pages*

    im glad to see the film being done, but i am also glad that it will not be of the DBZ saga but rather more or less based from dragon ball featuring picollo as the main villain. it should be intresting to see goku gather all dragon balls and to see dr breifs kidnapped by picollo.

    im still worried about there choice for goku but there bulma is a good choice for the film.

    still no word on krillin or any of the other ball chacaters except for roshi and i think chichi.

    can't wait to see what they can do with there budget.

    This guy could play Krillin:



    He's been in a lot of movies and TV shows.

    No Dragonball Movie this Year
    Source: Superhero Hype! March 5, 2008


    20th Century Fox has pushed back the studios' big screen Dragonball adaptation from August 15, 2008 to April 3, 2009. On the old date, it was facing The International, Star Wars: The Clone Wars, Tropic Thunder and Wild Child, while it is currently by itself on the new date.

    Written and directed by James Wong, the movie stars Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, Jamie Chung, Emmy Rossum, Eriko Tamura, Joon Park, Chow Yun-Fat, Texas Battle, Randall Duk Kim and Ernie Hudson.

    Dragonball is based on the manga created by Akira Toriyama; the work was also turned into a Japanese anime series that played all over the world. It tells the story of an alien sent to destroy Earth, who has a change of heart and decides to join the humans in their fight against various aliens and bad guys.
