Goku: I am slasher...I am thrasher...I- AM - OOZARU!!!

And yes, I know I am an evil, evil witch. My bad. :P

Goku is a shell for the Oozaru.
If challenge had a taste, you'd be quite delicious.

Or maybe that's what Piccolo wants him to think. Maybe the apocalypse was the Oozaru itself. I think that Piccolo wanted the eclipse to come, so Son Goku could become the Oozaru and help him destroy mankind. That sounds legit, right?

Hm. Wonder if it'll be pronounced "O-Zaru" or "U-Zaru"? Not that it matters (but it'd be awesome if it was the closer to the Japanese pronunciation... would feel like something resembling effort in a storm of what strikes me as otherwise).

(And no, I usually hear the computer say it as "uh-zer-roo" and haven't felt the need to redefine the pronunciation. Then again, it'd take a while to do that for all the DB-related words it mispronounces, so maybe I'm just lazy... :( )

I always use "O-Zaru", so that's probably what they'll use in the film. I also assume that if Kuririn or Ten appear in the sequel, they will have their original names.

If we use the Japanese names, dub fans will be confused and whine.
If we use dub names, fans of the original will whine.

I'd rather hear a minorty bitch than a majority.

While that's pretty sound logic, we're forgetting the part where we'll have people on either side that are going to whine either way.
... Yeah, I think you're right. O.O.

Oh hey! Let's be overly defensive about a word that obviously wasn't used the way the above poster was implying! That'll be fun!

Hey guys! More back-and-forth pseudo-personal attacks, conclusion-jumping, and all-around pointless assholery! :D
Well, it's been much worse on this page alone, hasn't it? :D

... Does anyone actually bitch about Tien Shinhan? :shock:

Exactly. Hardly anyone does.

Ok who the hack came up with those last names? I hope they are fake ou just for the novol.
90% of dragonball fans detest dragonballgt. If you are one of the 10% who like GT, post this in your signature.

That would be nice. I gotta say you're lucky to work at a place like that. It's tough getting hired at those spots...but enough off topic-ness....

Got back from work a little while ago, here's what I have:

-All 4 expected copies are still in the warehouse, they haven't been shipped to the store yet.
-It takes roughly 2 to 3 days to ship from the warehouse.
-There will be an end cap display for the live action movie books in general; it'll be up for about a month starting in early March.
-The end cap is in the children's section.
-Said end cap does not have a name.


By comparison, the 8 copies of the Hannah Montana movie-novel have a special Hannah Montana display (I'm assuming this is one of those cardboard cut out set ups with spaces for copies of the books; there's a display like that out now for Wimpy Kid 4.).



Placement in the store does not indicate the movie's rating. The PG-rated Inkheart's novel was on a table in the middle of the store (far away from the kids' section) with other movie-themed books when it came out a while back.
On hiatus.
