1. It is not related to the trailer or its contents. It should not have been posted in this thread in the FIRST place. This is not the "General Live Action Movie thread, although conversation may veer in that direction due to the content. However, an original post that is not replying to an on-topic post, containing that "plot synopsis", was inappropriate.

2. I really don't think even the most cynical person can believe that the plot would veer THAT far from the original material.

3. No source, no trust. SAYING there is a reliable source doesn't equate a reliable source.
I wrote up the synopsis myself for it to look stupid intentionally. Shoot me.
If only I could. Those kinds of shenanigans are extremely annoying.
It's Dragon Ball, Baby! Totally frustrating.

Well, thats a much better teaser, was that so hard?? haha :lol:
liked the music on this one, and the beginning? Seven Dragonballs must be found, for all man's fate will be bound..., i didn't know what to do, if laugh, or say, awesome.. :shock:
-Roshi, at least he has one small, tiny, almost didn't see it, beard, which i liked, it brought a smile to my face.
-Bulma looks badass. period.
-Yamcha.., well didn't see much of him, but i liked what i saw.., kinda.
-I actually like Chichi, seems pretty similar to the one we know, kissing Goku in one scene, and kicking someones ass in another.
-I really don't know what to say about May, looks nice i suppose.
-Now Goku. He looks great in his GI. Great moves too. And he looked fantastic when he throw his arm forward, hand glowing blue (a ki blast). But, whats with -"I'm not ready for this", has Goku EVER said anything like that??, He sounds afraid..., i really need to see more of him, to forget that line, hopefully.
-Piccolo...AWESOMENESS. He look great in that shot with the cloth over his head. And I'll be!!, is Piccolo, in the scene when he is rolling in the air, actually green!?
Wasn't the best teaser, but it wasn't the worst. made me a bit exited, so that's good.
And i end with a question. How come the Dragonballs in the posters, are so different to the one in this teaser?. Where is the star??, can't we see it because the ball its glowing???. Or maybe that luminous point inside it represents the star????, if so, is this Extreme-Makeover: Dragonball edition????
Tune in, next time for another exiting episode of dra.... nevermind... :wink:

Of the top of my head, he says something to that effect after he heals from the heart virus.

I did like the fact that I didn't have to hear a bunch of techno and 80s guitar solos while watching something that's both American and Dragonball-related.

It looked like it had more potential yesterday when it was shown through a shaky camera without sound. :?

Huh, you think so? I'm actually far more optimistic about this film than I was yesterday. Costume designs for a couple characters look pretty neat to me.

Is that download a .flv? I could make that a .mp4 if anyone wants. Or really, any format, but I find ripped flash seems to come out better as .mp4 (and tends to look decent on an ipod).

And... this is much better than yesterday, though my (hopefully) milk-delivery training scene is absent :(

There's some stuff that looked kinda weak, and some stuff that comes off much better in motion. Overall, I'm still revving on neutral on this. I'll see it, if for no other reason that I'm a fan of Chow Yun Fat and James Marsters. And it doesn't hurt that Bulma and Chi Chi are smokin'. Bulma driving Goku through the desert on a bike (I assume that was Goku) was pretty cool.

It just doesn't look interesting to me. I've literally lost all interest in seeing this movie. Unless they show some better stuff down the line, I will not be going to see this in April. :?

Yeah one of the few times I stick up for something and hope for the best and this is what happens. Yellow sports cars, Goku not being "ready for this", and Misty Ki blast. Silly me. :?

The site I used managed to yoink it from YouTube as an .mp4. I tried putting it straight onto my PSP, but it wouldn't play. Hopefully the HQ version Jappo has is an .avi or something, so I can convert it appropriately once he shares it.
