Most likely Roshi's island, though no pictures have been "officially" confirmed, including this.

ZOMG~! Master R0shi's Isl4nd is smaller tahn that! M0Vie will suck!!! :evil:

I'm joking.
This is supposed to be a mature forum for discussion
*flashbacks to the mushroom cloud thread* We all have our moments. >.<

The PR series, like the first Pokemon series, were the best ones, and shouldn't be grouped with the other crap that comes from the series.

Eriko Tamura (Mai) blog post:

"Shooting is going really well! Everyone is surprised. My part is very interesting, but I still cannot talk about it. Jim, Producer Tim, and Peter, who had flown to the set the day before yesterday, as well as the crew, are all in good spirits.

My wardrobe is very diverse, and it takes a long a time to put on the make up and decide the clothes I wear for certain scenes. Some of the wardrobe for certain scenes has not appeared as of yet. A studio movie like this is a very time consuming job for everyone.

Moreover, I am very honored to be working with the competent Chow Yun Fat. Our first scene filmed together was last week, for 2 or more hours, in the interior of a mountain. We met, and he greeted me very kindly. We were able to talk, and he seems like an interesting, gentle person."

Basically:

Mai will have a scene with Master Roshi

Cast and crew are in "high spirits"
If challenge had a taste, you'd be quite delicious.

@SSj Kaboom, yes I agree Magic begins sucked incredibly, but I really really don't see WHY is this any better? Is it just because it's High budghet?!
does just one word "high budged" tells all? What about the actual look of the movie and it's story???
If you just want a movie cuz of special effects, than I can make you one :D and then you can join our "against" side, c'mooon we have cookieeeees :D
Okay, whereas before you were forcing your opinion down everyone's throats like it's fact, now you're just being a prick. Both in your choices of apparently deliberate horrible grammar/spelling, as well as talking us down in a childish and annoying "I'm so innocent :D" manner. Seriously, stop. This is supposed to be a mature forum for discussion, at least Jappo can keep that in mind much more often than yourself.

I don't think he was trying to be a "prick," looks to me like he was just kidding around.
Yes, I was 100% joking for Kami's sake... I said that in next post...
SonEric84, don't worry, don't you see the guy is trying to act cool and adult...

Conan the SSJ, quote me: when I forced my opinion to someone? when I was sooo bad in spelling?(grammar is bad, I admit) and especially - WHEN WAS I "PRICK"!?
Ok, feel free, find it and qoute it :evil:

Let me just do a small presentation of how people threat me on this forum(not just me, probably most of ppl who have different opinion)
Ok, ban me after this, whatever, just let me say this and don't erase this post please:

Me: complaining about the movie...with much "!!!!!!!" :D

I'm_prejudice_adult_smartass: how dare you complain! you throllish crap! shut up! go home! you can't connect a damn sentance and yet you dare to complain! you childish idiot, stop this, seriously! (mind wisper: oooh god, it feels so good to play smart ass, and to bully people like him)

Me: :( I was offensive towards movie, not to members, why the hell you flame me?

I'm_prejudice_adult_smartass:(mind whisper: cuz I enjoy in bullying other people, and yet I sound so smart ass, yeah it feels so good to be bad) Cuz you are one throllish and childish crap, shut up and stop making throllish offtopic! go home...

another_prejudice_adult_smartass: Yeah, seriously, GO HOME! fuck your self, if you don't like the movie then don't fucking watch it!(mind whisper: oh man I sound so smart, even though I just proved I don't care for DB at all and nothing esle...)

VegetoEX: what is happening here? hey hey hey I'll lock this thread if this continues(this is not quote, it's metaphorical ofcrs, just like whole this presentation....)

80%_who_posted_in_this_thread *showing on VEGETA_DTX with index finger* ITS DTX!!! ITS DTX!!! HE flamed us all! and yeah! his grammar is horrible and spelling even worse!!! we are innocent!!!

Me: (mind wisper: I hate humans... :evil: ) But I was not the one who started this, I even havent flamed back anyone! though I do admit my grammar is bad...

I'm_prejudice_adult_smartass: GO HOOOME DTX!!! (mind whisper: oooh that felt soooo gooood!!!)

____________________________
Today, no one do/say what he really feels, no one is pure, no one is good person, everybody lives on template, everybody is prejudice and play some smart shit...Ok not literally everyone...

I hate humans... :evil:

That's all, now do what you want....

Your grammar and spelling isn't really all that great, DTX. It makes you an easy target. In fact, the only easier target than that is Gen Fukunaga in a pimp hat and a leisure suit slapping scantily-clad season sets around.

One: VEGETA_DTX, simmer down. Simmer. You need to post clear, concise, grammatically correct sentences and paragraphs, not this rambling you're doing. You seem like a nice guy, just lay off the caffeine.

Two: Everyone, regardless of what you think about the film, stay civil, stay on topic. I don't know why this thread is even still open, but let's not give Mike more reason to close it.

Three: The topic, for those that have forgotten, is 'Dragon Ball live action move: discuss'. This is the new information that may have been missed:
JAPPO wrote:crew update:
The Hollywood Reporter has revealed a few more crew members working on Dragonball.
Mayes C. Rubeo (Apocalypto, Fox's upcoming Avatar) is the Costume Designer.
Joe Pancake (Spider-Man 2, Pirates Of The Carribean) is working on the Special Effects.
Bruton Jones (Underworld) is the Production Designer.

Also, IMDB seems to confirm something we reported a while ago that Amalgamated Dynamics Inc. will be working on the film. You can check out some of ADI's amazing work here.

So, 'what does everyone think about that?'

I still don't see myself enjoying this movie, it just doesn't seem right. I have a feeling when my friend finds out about it that he's going to want me to go see it with him though.
Trans rights, now!

No one cares about the news, desire. They have their mind set on hating it no matter what.

Therefore, I will not be posting any more news. Do it yourself.

There, there. I'm pretty sure a few of us actually rely on you to post these information as quickly as possible. (And you're the first one to post most of the info). I haven't said anything on this subject yet because my thoughts on this movie currently contradict my other opinions. This movie is one of the most controversial project that it's only natural that people would not favor it. Some people are extremely aggressive when they talk about the movie, and that's completely fine. I'm not saying that assholes don't exist, however, because they do. They would just repeat the same thing over, and over, and over again, too lazy to back their opinions. I'm not a fan of desire's aggressive debating style, BUT at least he backed up his opinion differently each time without trying to turn them into fact, forcing others to think the same way. Keep posting those news, and if anybody spams with just a single sentence similar to "THATZ GAY LAWLZ", just think of them as fuck tards. I'll say no more in this topic.

By the way, with DTX in danger of being banned from the internet, your news should get assy comments from one less moron.

Meh... just give NEWS, and not insulting opinions.
Peace out.
[quote="Brakus"]For all the flack that FUNimation gets on this forum for their quote about DBZ, there's some modicum of truth to it: a 9-year-old is born every day. Or in some cases, "reborn". DBZ may be a kids' show, but it's been so close to so many hearts all over Japan, America, and quite possibly, even the world.[/quote]
