Holy cheese, he's channeling Darth Vader!

But I didn't actually mind that, aside from how heartbreaking it was to see Gohan staring at a birthday cake all alone. I would have liked to see him put up more of a fight aswell! :(

But Piccolo tearing that house apart with ease was pretty cool.

And was that a beam struggle we saw in that trailer?

Anyway, good to see there are TV spots starting to show.

Those look pretty sweet, Piccolo looks and sounds awesome! Poor Gohan, though. :cry:

But I love that cocky "Yeahhhh" Gohan does after he deflects those ninja star thingies with his Nyoibo. :)

Gohan: Yeahhhhh. Come here.
*Piccolo comes in*
Gohan: ...

On a final note, I always knew Piccolo would bring the house down. 8)

I thought the Attack on Gohan clip was awesome, Marsters does an awesome job playing Piccolo, I wasnt too impressed though with the Goku vs. Gohan clip

Well, if I manage to get a seat, I'll be leaving the theater 24 hours from now... I hope I survive the gnashing teeth of fans on my way out.

God speed.

Do you think many people will be seeing the movie over there? I mean, has there been much hype?

I'm waiting to hear back from Julian as to whether or not he'll be heading out to see it Friday night :P.

It's his duty! For great justice! Don't let him hear the end of it if he doesn't go!

Fuck yes, these clips scream Dragonball.

I liked that bug attack. That attack was "Goku like".

I don't know why people complain about that Goku Vs Gohan clip; I mean, it reminds me of the goofy, fun training Roshi gave Goku and Krillin in early DB.

Everyone watch the Roshi meets Goku clip (extended 5 minute), it shows he's still a pervert!

I've just noticed a strange Dragonball logo in that UK spot at 21 seconds. :?

EDIT: Man, those new clips look awesome, especially the Roshi clip.

They're actually going with the "airbending" angle? :?

He has a bikini magazine, no more perverted than any other red blooded male.

God, Chatku's delivery of his lines was so bad; wooden enough to land him a role in a Star Wars prequel.

I seriously hope I am not the only one who really liked all those new clips on Jappo' site.

I am totally ruining the movie for myself, but those clips were really great. But I do feel like the Piccolo/Gohan one was cut down or something.

Looks more like American Ninja (starring Michael Dudikoff) to me.
