Not really, unless you count new clips of CG Shenron.

Awesome. There are things being done right in the movie.

EDIT: What is this white demon-looking thing in the bottom-right corner?

Between the Oozaru eye, Shenron, the Mafuba in the game, and some other things, I'd say that there's been a lot of stuff released.

There's more than that, that's old footage.

Does anyone other than me notice Yi Xing Long on the bottom of that second image?!

It could be him. Maybe the characters in the live-action-verse are just that powerful huh? :lol:

Yeah. Everyone knows that EMO is a man advantage that results from a timeserving penalty by the other team.

I thought that was a Power Play. :o

(LOL hockey.)

Can't say I'm very disappointed with this news of late; in fact, quite the opposite. These shots of Roshi and the Mafuba in the video game look pretty incredible. :o Thanks for sharing this stuff, guys!

Also, is that Hamasaki's song in the trailer? I wasn't sure if the song was in English or Japanese, but it kind of sounded like the latter...

The flying car really does it for me. :mrgreen:
Seriously, I think that's my favorite thing that I've seen of all of this.
(I can kind of blame that I enjoyed the flying DeLorean of Back to the Future a lot too. I just like flying cars. X3 )


On the other hand, my two most disliked lines of "I'm not ready for this" and "............cool." are still present even in this updated trailer. :cry:
On hiatus.

I've got to say the new trailer almost made me *gasp* excited for this movie. Even though there is still the whole high school part, the movie doesn't look that bad. As long as I can stop comparing it the anime and manga, this movie could actually be really good.

That's how I feel. And the occasional faithfulness and nods make it even better.

I wonder why the sky is green. Maybe the producers got fed up and said "You want green? Ok you got green. Make everything green."

Are you kidding me, the trailer got me WAY more excited for the movie now that they're actually showing us cool stuff in it like flying cars. I will admit that most of the excitement was aided by the bitchin' new theme song though.

I think that this movie is going to kind of be like Transformers now that I think about it. The whole first half of the movie had the whole high school type thing going for it too. Also most of the casual Transformers fans really like the movie, me being one of them, and the hardcore fans thought it was just ok, sorry if the generalization is way off, but could still appretiate the movie for what it was. That's just my opinion and if anyone disagrees with me that's fine.

Half of the movie? I'll be surprised if the high school portions in DBE last more than 15 minutes. You don't see them showing any school scenes in the trailers, do you? I don't!

But I agree with the general idea; I suspected the movie would be similar to Transformers in so far as the fanbase's majority expectations of it combined to its actual quality and reception. We'll see how that latter part turns out once the film's released.

Anyhoo, the new trailer is fantastic. Red-eyed Oozaru, Yamcha's flying jeep, Shenlong, amazing-looking Goku vs Piccolo battle shots... I think I need to change my pants. :D

I suspect the green sky is due to Shenlong somehow.
