Remember seeing this on 2Ch a while ago, don't recall anyone posting it so now is as good a time as ever:

By the way, I believe this image here is from the exhibition:

On an un-related note, I know I, and a few others have been asked this a couple of times but when calculating the movie's gross revenue would they take into account all of the pre-sold and preview screening tickets?

Also, for whoever goes to see the movie, I wanna know what the adults to kid ratio is. :wink: I'm curious to see if this movie's drawing in nostalgia or new fans.

That stretched-out Goku statue-thing horrified me the first time I saw it in the 2ch thread. It's still creepy. >_<
And look at how it just droops backward like a bird's legs on the lower half of his legs!

Yeah, it can take pictures. Or she was playing something. The world may never know.

That was my exact first thought. Dear god, who thought that statue was a good idea. :shock:

Hey, VegettoEX, what got you into Dragon Ball and how did you find people to help with the website? I'm dieing to know. And battle of gods gives me mixed feelings. The new art looks cheap and bothers me, but the movie's quality surprises me. It looks amazing.

So what does the egg represent and why did Burisu vanquish it after discussing the defeat of Freeza with Whis? Could it have been something to do with Freeza or a related-planet of his inhabitants?

Marron looks really weird. :wtf:
Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

I think it represents that Frieza's time is up or something. You know like the whole hourglass sand thingy

*Is convinced CDJapan will be a good and safe bet for purchasing this Official Movie Guide book.*

Alright! Here we go!

Also, it's the same size (height x length I mean) as the Daizenshuu? That's really cool!

I will just do the SAL shipping, as I don't mind waiting the extra time, just as long as it eventually gets to my house safely. XD

I don't think I would credit Toriyama's current style of drawing to how weird a few of those body shots look; they're clearly drawn by animators.

If we are talking about the poster, then Kuririn's and Marron's eyes have scleras even though Toriyama always drew them like that and I'm just too used to the anime versions(and it doesn't help the manga's black and white).

That's my only real worry when it comes to new Dragon Ball stuff. The animation is too different to me and sometimes doesn't look right.

Trying to complete my BOG magazine purchase on CDJapan; having troubles.
While authenticating, my credit card company's asking for my pin for security reasons. This happened once before with the online store of a place at one of the local malls I visit. I never finished that other transaction because I thought there was something wrong. T_T Is there a way around this?

EDIT: Ended up deleting it from my cart instead of finishing. :(

I'll do more research on what this could be after I get some food.

You can use Paypal in CDJapan if you want.
