If the review is legit, then it sounds pretty promising. I wonder if it conflicts with any of the previous "inside scoop reviews" we've gotten.

And that picture is awesome.

I'm honestly not surprised Chi Chi is the worst thing about the movie. It's cool to know that Goku and Bulma are funny together though.

The funniest scene is when they all fall and in the pit and roshi purposely falls on bulmas bum and she gets her gun and starts shooting.
Yay.
Yes, there is Namu, Upa, Bora, Pan put, Bacterion and Ramfran.

Upa and bora were with Roshi in the Tibet like mountains when 1st introduced, Tibet scenes were very short it’s a place goku and bulma head to 1st, the others were just people fighting in the background whilst goku spoke to chi chi.
Yay.

The near the end after piccolo chops off the destroyers’ tail he tells goku he’s a saiyan
Boo...and yay.

Yep, it's Tom Rothman's modus operandi to never show giants, or any variation thereof.

Sadly Shenlong wasn’t that spectacular he comes out of the Dragon Avatar and is covered in smoke however what did make me laugh was the dramatic music bringing in the all powerful Dragon for him simply arise and go "....what"

It sucked in those movies, and I'm sure it'll suck here as well.

Roshi isn’t perverted but more of a cheeky old man and he is much wiser than in the anime
I don't know what this reviewer's definition of 'perverted' is... And for that matter, how was Roshi not wise in the anime? He was goofy a lot, but he was also the wise old man.

Oh well. Sounds good if it's legit.

Edit:
Piccolo wishes for youth and is interrupted by Roshi before he can make his second wish
Interesting.
Can you describe the scene in which roshi knows goku is gohan's grandson ?

Well Goku simply tells him that he was sent by Gohan then Roshi tells him how they used to both train under there master Sifu Norris.
Sifu Norris? Sifu Norris? Is it just me or does that sound fake?

But a lot of the other stuff agrees with what JAPPO told us. Take that to mean what you will.

I'd say it was somewhere in around that area. :lol:

I espicially like how that evil, evil line of evilness was mentioned not to be in the film. So long as that sort of crap is left out I might, might forgive the move to civilized life. I don't care if there's no logical reasoning for him to retain his original personality. I just want it kept. Kapeesh?

I'm a little dissapointed the Makankô-sappô was called SPC, though (or maybe that was just the reviewer?)

Sifu Norris? Hey Chuck, why didn't you tell us you had a brother? ;)

Yeah, but he said Roshi isn't perverted in the movie, just cheeky.

I didn't realize I could get away with grabbing a girl's ass and not be a pervert. :roll:

You can when you're Muten Roshi. :D Seriously though maybe he meant that Roshi wasn't constantly doing perverted things so therefore he wasn't that much of a perv. I don't know.

I'm guessing none of the instrument demons are in it, or even make a cameo?

It's actually sounding good. My indifference is turning into intriguement, if that's a word.

So, anyone know if this site and the review source are reputable? I'd be pretty happy to see the film if this stuff is true.

I'd feel better if I knew it was reputable too.

It probably wouldn't sound how I imagine, but Shenlong irritatingly going "WHAT." amuses me; though that's the sort of thing I'd imagine from him much later on in the series.


I never know what to believe with these online reviews though. Forgive me if I'm skeptical. ^^;


I'd be very happy to hear they'd gotten rid of the "not ready" line, if that is indeed true.


Chatwin's still not Goku to me though. :p

Some of this stuff sounds like it was copied from my review and other bits of news. Some of it is different from my script, like Sifu Norris being their master. That's not it at all in my script.

Also some of the cameos must have been added, but that's to be expected I suppose.

As for the ENDING, that's completely different than my script. There's other stuff too, but for the moment I'm 50/50 on this guy. I think he could be making it up but then again maybe a ton was changed while filming.
If challenge had a taste, you'd be quite delicious.

He talked about scenes filmed in Tibet and you know FOX was looking for actors for re-shoots. I don't know. Maybe the reason it sounds made it up is because it sounds too good to be true and the movie really is just gonna be THAT bad.
