Oh! "Bowling for Soup". I knew that voice sounded familiar. That song itself's got to be around three years old.

And here I was expecting you to comment on the title in relation to the movie.

I was just relieved that I wasn't thinking I partly recognized the singer and didn't. ^^;

*Will happily comment on it* :3
Yes, I think its hilariously ironic that they would stick a song about high school agony to this particular movie.

I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but while I was watching TV Tokyo, I saw a commercial for Dragon Ball toys at McDonald's. I missed the beginning of the CM, but one of the toys looked like some kind Kamehame-Ha ball you hold in your hand that lights up and makes noise. I found something similar on YouTube. It looked like the Rasengan toy. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rrJpDbQLZ0w

EDIT: I forgot to mention that I think the toys are supposed to be for Dragon Ball Evolution.

In response to JP's PSP game quotes.

Piccolo: "You are trembling. Do you fear me, human?"
Gohan: "If I am trembling it is with excitement, not fear"

Movie!Gohan is channeling the original Goku apparently.
Now I'm going to be even more disappointed when he gets killed off now.

I still think renaming the dragon radar the "Promethium Energy Extracor" is ridiculous though.

Well, supposedly Bulma doesn't know what the DragonBalls are called until she meets Goku. To her it's just an artifact that emits a strange new type of energy.

Which is ridiculous because it should be the other way around: Goku thought the Dragon Ball was his "grandfather." While Bulma was the one who gives him all the details, especially since she had done research on past stories about them.

I used Google and I basically got the meaning of the whole message. It's just a bunch of crap.

OWNED

Owned how?

I don't recall stating I had any trust towards an online petition that has no chance of working, let alone any belief that if we try real hard, Fox will stop the movie from happening.

The movie's done. The movie's already on its way and is going to be all over the world.

Does that mean I have to like it? Absolutely not. I do believe I'm entitled to state my opinion and point out what I feel is wrong with the movie. Don't bitch and moan when someone has an opinion different from yours just because they don't like a movie.

Dude it was just a joke, relax. Hence the "

So Toriyama's opinion on the film...

Yeah...

Gee lemme guess what some people will say about this...Um "He said the same thing about GT, It's a typical response because he can't just come out and hate it, they're paying him to say this."

In before "HE'S JUST BEING NICE HE'S LYING THROUGH HIS OLD TEETH."

Isn't that fairly accurate, though?

When has Akira Toriyama ever said anything negative about anything other than himself...?

We can do absolutely nothing useful with his quotes other than say, "Hey, look... Toriyama said yet another non-committal thing. Neat."

See his mini-comics detailing about his editor in Dr. Slump. :p
