ACTUALLY, in the um "written text for a movie thingy" Bulma never says "Let's go."

She doesn't want to go at first.

Of course it was intentional.

Considering the movie itself didn't have the same type of humor as the books and trailers are always pulling crap like this, I really can't be 100% sure. I would guess it was intentional, though.

So is this "adaptation" supposed to take place on "our Earth" as opposed to an alternate one? I'm not trying to be nit-picky, just saying that this baffles me in the context of a story about "DragonBall". But then, everything about this film pretty much baffles me, so I guess separate choices from it for how to present the trailer shouldn't either. Also, does anyone else notice the confusion in that exchange between Goku and Bulma?

"Let's go."
"We go, but we go together."

Why is he emphasizing they go together if she just insisted upon that same thing? Perhaps something was lost in the intended context of that conversation in abridging it to trailer form, really don't know. Also, interesting addition; Roshi blinks about twice more after "You're the only one who can do it". Yep, like I said, interesting. :roll:

Good points also, Cap'n Awesome.

I didn't even notice that they both said practically the same thing to each other. :lol:


That's so..."redundantly redundant" of Chatku.
I'm sure Justin Chatwin wrote the script :roll:

Also, trailers always, ALWAYS, contain line spliced together and out of context. And most of the time contain scenes that don't make the final cut, or alternate angles of the same shot, that way when you see the movie, you aren't seeing the same thing as the trailer.

Is it just me, or are half the lines in the trailer not actually in the... the... the thing what where a movie is wroted?

And why is it that the Mafuba looks shittier than it did in the original? It actually looked pretty cool before.

Alternate shot, alternate special effects, maybe?

Maybe they felt that moment needed to be toned down as to be less of a spoiler or something.

I too agree the older shot looked a lot more intense.

It is obvious they recorded lines in studio for the trailer.

While this trailer IS slightly different from the last, it still doesn't give me a minute percentage of hope that this movie will be watchable. I just don't see how anything good can come from this... trash. :?

Ahem. I'm going to disagree with this.

Let's say that, hypothetically, there is nothing good about the product as a whole. That it is, as you say, "Trash".

Universally, objectively, and indisputably.

Now, youre idea is that nothing good can come from trash?

How about the way you were introduced to Dragon Ball?

The dub, perhaps?

Even if not, how did the majority of this community discover the show? How did Daizenshuu EX build up into what it was? The dub was influential.

The dub is garbage.

The dub is worse than this movie could ever be.

And yet, look at what came from that.

I must like garbage because I like the dub.

And I love the "movie text thingyobob" for this movie and I think it's going to be great. Hurray for opinions!

LOL, I know he didn't write it. :lol: Actors have (as far as I know) absolutely no bearing on the content of the scripts they sign up to read.


I meant in the context of that clip, that'd be a very redundant reply to "Let's go.".
(Which is why I'm hoping its only an odd editing burp).


If its confusing; when I refer to live action movie Goku, I call him Chatku. When I'm referring to the actor, I call him by Chatwin. ^^;

Well, I would rather watch a bad movie based on Dragon Ball than watch the dub from start to finish again. It's not necessarily the voices or the bad script, but...it's one of those dubs where nothing anyone says sounds natural. It gives me a migraine after a while.

Maybe that's just me though. Even if this movie is complete garbage, I like seeing weird things based on things I already like.

Of course, remove the edits, and you have my personal opinion. =p

Doesn't mean I don't have a right to question it.

On topic, the trailer is filled with updated graphics and looks quite nice.

I don't like the alternate Mafuba shot, however. It's all yellow-y and brown, which seems....kinda same-y.
