Guys I thought of awhile ago:

Goku-Robin Shou
Piccolo-Michael Jai White
Bulma-Ming-Na
Chi Chi-Margaret Cho
Vegeta-Jet Li
Master Roshi-Jackie Chan
Freeza (voice)-Gary Oldman or Tim Curry
Yamcha-Johnny Yong Bosch

Nice list, Super Sonic. But wouldn't Chou Yun-Fat be a better Vegeta? I s'pose he's a bit old, but I think he's got a better screen presence than Jet-Li. Oh, and I agree with your pick of Bosch for Yamucha, thats a good choice.

Oh, and Sun, Welling would be a horrible Son Goku. Hell, he's a horrible Superman, how could be do any better as Goku?

Minus intellegence, Goku and Superman are the same character.

Anyway, I've thought of two choices for Vejiita.

The only actor I know fitting a Dragon Ball character perfectly is Robin Shou as Goku. He was one damn good Liu Kang and have always hoped he would some day play Goku.

Actually from what I've seen Superman is not all that bright himself. :P
