I missed the forums as well. There isn't another good DBZ, that I know of, forum on the net. It was nice to wake up and find that little surprise.

Ehh.. there's a couple out there. Honestly, I'm too lazy to type db.schuby.org/daizex a lot of the time.

Well sure, I looked around but I wasn't interested.

I know this will be a big shock coming from me, but I'm not really concerned. Chi-chi's character is possibly the one I'm the least concerned about. Everyone else's is being shown to be largely spot-on with every new tidbit we hear, and she was never that deep a character anyway. So long as she still fits the description of "lovestruck action princess," it's all good.

But also, are we all forgetting Ms. Chung's interview from a while ago where she described Chi-Chi as being "born to kick ass?" Plus all the tidbits earlier that pin her as being a tough martial artist in her own right? Being attractive (and Ms. Chung is SMOKIN' hot)pretty much means automatic membership to the "in" crowd at a school (and most other environments, at that), so that's not too much of a stretch. But at the same time, it doesn't leave any real mark, positive or negative, on her personality. I'm getting a vibe from this version of Chi-Chi that she's the type of girl you'll often see quasi-stereotyped in manga/anime; the ones who are charming and popular and pretty in public, but then in her free-time she's the top student at her dojo who can beat all the boys. And then later when she becomes a mom, she still kicks ass. Best comparison I can come up with is Kaoru from Rurouni Kenshin or the title character from Suzuka.

As for Ms. Kirksey, I can't help but get a bit of the same impression from her as I did from Mr. Battle's last interview. Seems she may be hyping up her own part as a little bigger than it really is. But who can really blame her?

There's a new poster out. I would post it but I ain't trying to get in trouble. Dragonballmovieblog.net

*edit* Oh and apparently there is going to be an animated portion of the movie ? Maybe the intro ?

For some weird reason the first thing that popped into my head when I saw that new poster of Bulma was "Moltov Cocktease" from The Venture Brothers....maybe it was the leather suit the gun and the shading making her hair look red.

Sorry, the image is gone now

What's the big hub-bub, why were you reluctant to post the picture?

Chrono Trigger · Post by **Chrono Trigger** » Tue Sep 02, 2008 9:46 pm

Well the guy that put it up is scared that he is gonna get in trouble and I thought "Well if it's not supposed to be up I don't wanna post it and have Mr. EX show up and verbally kick my ass." Cause that's just the kind of luck I have.

Because right now you're currently hotlinking their image thus raping their bandwidth straight in the ass.

Ai-chihuahua! That's a smokin' wonderful new poster!

Chrono Trigger · Post by **Chrono Trigger** » Tue Sep 02, 2008 9:49 pm

They don't seem to have to big of a problem with it, seeing as how there wasn't a hotlinking restriction. Besides, I really couldn't care less.

I don't mean to sound ungrateful! Especially since I'm so starved for news but I was squinting pretty hard at that picture and that guy is sitting on some serious stuff. One of those posters had Marsters on it.

Very pretty poster

.

@Chrono Trigger

Animated segment huh? that interest me more than the rest of the movie.

*edit* Wait....it's american animated!?. What's witth this movie taking good steps foward, then flatting flat on its ass. I get hopeful, then the movie just gets dumb. I have nothing against American animation, but when I read that, I hoped something from Toei.

Er, yeah, that's EXTREMELY bad netiquette. Places like Photobucket and Imageshack are free and easy to use. Hosting something there is much more polite.

Ok, I'm gonna be straight up with you guys. I have no idea what you guys are talking about with the whole "hotlinking killing the bandwidth" stuff. So if one of you wants to host it from photobucket and repost it, then I'll get rid of the one I posted. Either that or EX will take it off himself.

Wait, Piccolo, where?

Chrono Trigger · Post by **Chrono Trigger** » Tue Sep 02, 2008 10:02 pm

Here's how it happened. On the SHH forums somebody posted a link to a .jpg that had at least 20 posters on it and most of them were from Dragon Ball. The problem was the picture was to small and you couldn't really make anything out but a bunch of people agreed that one of them had Piccolo on it. The other posters looked like they had other individuals and some group stuff including Chatwin in the the Blue Gi.

*EDIT* Shortly after that the Bulma picture appeared and the guy was like "NO! DELETE THAT SHIT! I'LL GET IN TROUBLE." Then everything got deleted but it was TOO late.
