    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.
    If they fear other movies, they will never make it.
    The date is now free of oponents now. But in the months to come who knows?
    So if some big hit arises and screens around the same time, they will give up again?

    All the things I really like to do are either illegal, immoral, or fattening. And then: Golf.

    There's nothing that suggests in the article that the reason for moving the dates was because of fear of competition. We don't know the details, but my intuition is that they probably need to reshoot some scenes, add the cgi shit, etc. Quite few movies have been delayed already, many because of the effects of the Writer's Strike.

    There has been little marketing for the movie, I'm sure that plays a big part... I would not be surprised if they are planning a big marketing campaign for this.

    Maybe they read some internet talk about the movie and actually heeded some of the concerns of fans, and decided to remake the movie so it would have a better chance of success.


    For God will not permit that we shall know what is to come... those who by some sorcery or by some dream might come to pierce the veil that lies so darkly over all that is before them may serve by just that vision to cause that God should wrench the world from its heading and set it upon another course altogether and then where stands the sorcerer? Where the dreamer and his dream?

    I'm praying for that to be true.

    Cast seems to fail so far.

    Well imo a dragonball movie with real people is just doomed to fail no mater who the actors are. CGi as it stands today can't possibly shows us the real goku in all his might, i mean how the hell are they gonna even make the guy do a kamehameha?

    Their best chance would b doing something like advent children, while humanazing the carachters in terms of appearence they would still be able to make them look "authenthic" for the anime fans.

    From superherohype:

    Dragonball Movie Wraps Filming
    Source: JC March 24, 2008


    On her official MySpace page, Emmy Rossum confirmed on Saturday that filming wrapped on Friday for 20th Century Fox's Dragonball movie, written and directed by James Wong. Rossum, who plays Bulma, said...

    I've been so busy in Mexico finishing up Dragonball but we just wrapped yesterday so I JUST got home and this is my first opportunity in front of my computer to write to you. It's been nuts for about a month and a half working nights (on a schedule of about 5pm-8am) outside, but our spirits have been high and it was such a blast. I've missed writing to you but I've been exhausted after coming home from work early in the morning. I'm finally home (at least for a few weeks) and it's a mixture of happy and sad. Wrapping a movie is kind of like the end of school, you miss all your friends that you've bonded with so much but you are eager for a little rest and a break from all the hard work. I'll be starting work on something else in 3 weeks so I wont have much time to rest...

    Adapted from the manga created by Akira Toriyama, the pic also stars Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, Jamie Chung, Eriko Tamura, Joon Park, Chow Yun-Fat, Texas Battle, Randall Duk Kim and Ernie Hudson. An April 3, 2009 release is planned.

    Take five minutes to look a few pages back in this thread .

    As for the news, I guess there's no turning back now.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    yeah, true, Except about the AC thing. EVERYONE would have crap to say about the actors. Certain fans would be jealous of who was playing Tifa or Aerith and some would think they weren't good enough or crap like that.

    Drama. You don't want no drama.

    I agree, they should have went the CGI/FMV route with a Dragon Ball movie instead of using real people.

    Though I didn't really like the Gohan actor and the fact that he did the last kamehameha wrongly.

    Seriously, a 3d DBZ movie based on the art in the Budokai games would be nice. Anyway I'm sure someone pitched a similar idea in this thread already.
