Also, I'm really hoping that the movie details that we've received thus far is either fake or just a quick idea of what the team wants to do with the film. Otherwise, I'm hoping for something much, much better.

I found it amusing too, but it's still weird. >_>I thought that was an amusing comparison. >.> But anyway, it sounds like Yamcha's truck is taking Puar's place as the 'all purpose item generator'.
But we don't NEED a female villain lead, and Piccolo already has henchmen to choose from.Well, this is replacing the Pilaf stuff, and I guess they figured it'd be nice to have a recognizable name for the female villain lead and Mai's the only one that fits. So there she is. The shapeshifting thing just sounds like a plot device. (Which we all know Dragonball's never used)
Well, I guess when you put it like that, it makes sense.To me it sounds more like he's saying "It's in your blood, you'll eventually join me, you can't resist it" more than "You came here to work for me" like everyone else seems to read it.
Um, last I checked, Nameks were humanoid. I mean, they have two legs, two arms, a head, two eyes, two ears, a mouth, a nose, and the same exact general body shape as us. That = humanoid. Hell, Chewbaca is humanoid, as are those blue skinned aliens with Jabba with those long tendril things. Jabba is an example of a non-humanoid.Really? I would have enjoyed at least something resembling the Nemeks we're all familiar with. I don't want to have future bad guys adapted to the point of them just looking like regular people too, y'know? For example, I could totally see final form Freeza actually not being too "out there" to have.
What's 'stupid crazy' about a $100 million budget? As I said, the original Matrix cost $63 million. Revenge of the Sith was $113 million. The Transformers movie ran about $143 million.Iam sure thats how much they have to spend for the three movies, that cannot be for just one movie. That would be stupid crazy.
It's a movie being made by Hollywood. Therefore it requires a female villain character in a high ranking position. Don't ask me why. It's just the way they think.But we don't NEED a female villain lead, and Piccolo already has henchmen to choose from.
Actually, to me, it sounds more like the Street Fighter movie. Which, while not a very good *Street Fighter* movie, was still awesome fun IMO.No matter how much you try to polish this movie, a turd is still a turd. This movie seems awfully familiar to the Super Mario Bros. Movie.

I'm in the generation of fans that started with Toonami, so I totally empathize with the feeling of having "missed the party", experiencing disappointment, and wanting to experience it myself. But I can't, that's how life is. Time is a bitch. The party is over. Kageyama, Kikuchi, and Maeda are off the sauce now; Yanami almost OD'd; Yamamoto got arrested; Toriyama's not going to light trash cans on fire and hang from the chandelier anymore. We can't get the band back together, and even if we could, everyone's either old, in poor health, or calmed way the fuck down. Best we're going to get, and are getting, is a party that's almost entirely devoid of the magic that made the original one so awesome that we even want more.

My good man. You just made my day. With watching a new South Park & this recent DB movie news, I just can't stop laughing.....& dying a bit on the inside.It's like superman and spiderman had gay sex and this ran down one of their legs.
In Spider-Man's case, he was a high school student when he got his powers. That was his "deal" - the first non-sidekick teenage superhero.Kunzait_83 wrote:And by the way... the hell is UP with the flat out obsession Hollywood seems to have in making every single fucking one of its major blockbuster protagonists highschool students?
haha Glad to entertain. Yeah, I definitely know what you mean, if this turns out to be true dragonball is going to be even more disrespected than it already is/deserves to be. Actually, what am I saying? With the way people are in this day and age they'll probably eat it up.Sebastian (SB) wrote:For the video games, yes.

Oh lord, I can just imagine how the Japanese viewers who practically grew up with the story will react. Priceless.

WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!! I swear, if this goes through, I will slap anyone who says that GT is the worst generated story of all DB stuff. I mean, c'mon! This is like an FFnet AU fic gone horribly, horribly wrong! That stuff hardly works in fic form, but to make a god-damned movie! WHAT THE HELL!
Seriously - someone please tell me this is another prank, like maybe the DBAF one pulled on us by VegettoEX himself. FOR GODS SAKE, SAY IT AIN'T SO!
