To think some people questioned whether or not Goku was going to be in the new movie

It wasn't that out of the question. We've had a few movies in the past where Goku made little to no appearance. Namely the ones starring Bardock or Future Trunks.Nevaeh wrote:To think some people questioned whether or not Goku was going to be in the new movie

Those were actually TV Specials, watching an episode without Goku is not quite the same as going to the theaters to watch a Dragon Ball movie without its main protagonist (which for me is totally okay. The best stuff in Dragon Ball franchise happen to be the ones that Goku barely appears or is not the main figure).

Does anyone think this movie will take place on Planet Sadala?

Would be nice if we got to see what the original home of the Saiyans looked like... Someone told me the planet Caulifla was found on was not Sadala, contrary to my first impression.kn83 wrote:Does anyone think this movie will take place on Planet Sadala?
Re: Official "DB 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
I wouldn't be surprised as it'd be a chance to go into both histories and maybe have a connection between them like the saiyans are all from u6 but a group got into 7 somehow.kn83 wrote:Does anyone think this movie will take place on Planet Sadala?
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.
Re: Official "DB 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
Considering their popularity in Japan, we are likely gonna see Kale, Cabba and Caulifla in the film.sintzu wrote:I wouldn't be surprised as it'd be a chance to go into both histories and maybe have a connection between them like the saiyans are all from u6 but a group got into 7 somehow.kn83 wrote:Does anyone think this movie will take place on Planet Sadala?

It would be good way to use him/her/it in the movie. I can't imagine they use something in the manga and never bring it up again. Toriyama even reference the Namek Book of Legends in a interview about Yamoshimajinwarman wrote:The Time Traveler from Universe 12 is a manga only thing so I don't know if they put that in a movie. But, you don't know for sure until it happens or not.Hellspawn28 wrote:I wonder if the Time Traveler from Universe 12 could play a role in the movie. Universe 12 didn't get erase and the movie is about the origins of the Saiyans. I could see the movie dealing with time travel.

Re: Official "DB 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
I hope that poster is indicative of a new design trend going forward. There was a poll making the rounds on Twitter recently about whether new Dragon Ball should go in the direction Pokemon Sun/Moon with more animation-friendly designs. It came out something like 52% against, which is closer than I expected. Even so, I figure a cartoonish stylised look like S&M would be rejected by the fanbase at large since Dragon Ball Z's "well 'ard" look is so popular.
This art style is a pretty good compromise. Not completely exaggerated like S&M, but animation-friendly with the right amount of detail. It seems almost tailor-made for someone like Tate to really flex his muscles with. I hope we get a really good movie out of this.
Also, please let Goku use the power pole in the movie. This is set after Super right? Ultra Instinct with the power pole? Sign me up!

So did the new character designer(which I think would be the bigger creative force behind a new art style).Big Black Saiyan wrote:The director did work on One Piecekn83 wrote:I don't know. Its not bad but it seems too round and One Piece-like.The Patrolman wrote:

Re: Official "DB 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
That better be the color of Goku's gi going forward. No more dark orange/red and now the proper bright orange just like Krillin's.

A powerful foe right after the ToP.. could be Grand Priest, who else could be "worthy"?
Re: Official "DB 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
I wasn't hyped about this movie that much. The origin story of the Saiyajins? Nah man. But now? Hell yes. One Piece Film Z hands down my favorite anime movie in terms of artwork and animation. Such a beautiful movie. Can't wait!

I think its the guy that killed Jiren's parents, personally.mute_proxy wrote:A powerful foe right after the ToP.. could be Grand Priest, who else could be "worthy"?

Re: Official "DB 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
Makes sense if it is a continuation of DBS and most international territories have DBS now too, seeing how well it is doing overseas aswell it is safe to say it's a household name now.majinwarman wrote:I'm surprised that they are using DBS instead of DBZ. I like the move but they could have gotten more viewers if they had marketed it as a DBZ movie. I'm still ready to watch this movie.Baggie_Saiyan wrote:I'm hyped.... Wowza....
Also confirmed to be after ToP? Interesting.
Knew it would use DBS moniker. It's toooo strong a brand name right now.

And they were made as TV movies as opposed to Theatrical movies because they knew it wouldn't bring in the money without Goku being in it.ZeroNeonix wrote:It wasn't that out of the question.

Re: Official "DB 2018 Movie" Discussion Thread
I'm absolutely thrilled over the art style this hints at. It's not Toriyama, exactly, but we haven't really mimicked Toriyama since the Yamamuro era began, and this still feels of a piece with his work while being clean and animation-friendly. Also love the colors.
Really, really excited to see where this goes. A Toriyama script, a stellar staff, and an exciting visual style are already three huge pluses.

FUNi tweeting about the movie... safe to assume they have it licensed presumably part of the DBS deal.
WW simultaneous (or close to) seems like it may be on the cards. With a year of production and planning no excuse not too roll it out int'l sooner.

Vegeta briefly touched on the Frieza/Saiyan thing when he met Cabba at the U6 tournament. He said that Cabba's battle suit was the same style of armor the Saiyans wore before they were assimilated into the Frieza army. He does seem knowledgeable about that period in Saiyan history so he could serve as Mr. Exposition for it.kn83 wrote:Considering their popularity in Japan, we are likely gonna see Kale, Cabba and Caulifla in the film.sintzu wrote:I wouldn't be surprised as it'd be a chance to go into both histories and maybe have a connection between them like the saiyans are all from u6 but a group got into 7 somehow.kn83 wrote:Does anyone think this movie will take place on Planet Sadala?
Cabba's VA was also at the wrap party for episode 131 but he also voices Liquiir so take that as you will. Though...has Liquiir actually said anything since U6 vanished? Not that he spoke much in the first place.
