I thought he was talking about the movie I linked to. Thats why I asked, because that scene I linked was awesome.

I still think Jet Li would be an awesome Vegeta.

I was talking about the scene you linked to...

Jet li would make an AWFUL vegeta.

Oh come on. Dont tell me you didnt like that part at the end. It was awesome. Also the fight between Good Jet Li and Bad Jet Li is awesome too.

Sorry but most critics agree with me, "The One" was horrible...

It would be great if they make flying in DB like its done in this movie: http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pict ... large.html

What do you guys think?

I bet 20 dollars JAPPO will say: "the flying is okay"... ;)

I already said "the flying is okay" at liveactionanime.net.

Just heard somewhere they're introducing a new character named "Teto" or something as one of Goku's friends.

Anyone else heard that?

Teto is the new, hip Krillin for the 21st century!

"The One" was, and still is one of the most cringe-worthy films I've ever seen.

On the other hand, Hancock is going to be awesome. For some reason I doubt that there'd be a lot of flying scenes in the upcoming Dragonball film.

That line alone warrants some type of amusing fanart.

Or at least something related to that cheesy "Krillin's in the house!" line from Season 3.

WRGHAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHY THE HELL THOSE JOKES!!!!!
:evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil: :evil:

When I saw that they are canceling it I almost got an hart attack of happiness(though I doubted that such thing can happen to ME! to 100% CURSED VEGETA_DTX), but I still couldn't move at all, with my jaw wide open.

And than! when I realized that was a JOKE ! ........................

AGGHHHH!!! I just can not believe what can happen to me in damn 5 seconds....

EDIT:

Also, some of you posted this:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1098327/
Writers:
Akira Toriyama (comic) and
Ben Ramsey (adaptation)
It clearly explains, just WHO was involved for WHAT, just like it says Akira Toriyama is Writer! but for comic!
And Ben Ramsey is writer, but for adaptation, simple enough.

Also, someone posted this:
http://www.countingdown.com/movies/3091 ... _id=990765
Hahahaha...
I am not saying I am any better cuz I trust just one my friend from Jap which is always informed about DBZ/anime/Japan, and which cousin worked for TOEI back then...But I think you should not believe in such FAN-TEXT!
Look at the title - Akira Toriyama Excited About Movie
its clearly some news reporter who work on that site, and is excited pretty much about this movie + maybe he was on drugs, so he was imagining things...

Even if this is truth, that was clearly before this shitty cast was assigned.
So even if Akira wanted live action adaptation(which I really doubt, cuz he wasn't even excited about GT), he probably imagined the same story & characters with great effects, but not this!
Anyway! I just don't believe he wanted it at all!
DESTROY ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What are you trying to prove? That Akira Toriyama isn't writing the adaptation? We already know that.

Really, enough of the blind hate.

I think he was just trying to say that Akira Toriyama isn't "excited" that his creation is going live action. A cousin in TOEI..? Oh boy..

I am sorry, but I am about to go off topic for just a bit.

Listen, I can appreciate a fan who is concerned with the property and its treatment. I can even respect the opinion that whats being done with this film is less than satisfactory. But what I cannot tolerate are rants, such as the ones you have been posting. I think you need to spend some time carefully reading the forum rules. You scarcely write a sentence that doesn't end in an exclamation point. You constantly use all capital letters when it is unnecessary. And you make other, perhaps, more minor grammatical errors throughout. I realize that my grammar is far from perfect. But, I try to make it as legible and correct as I can before I make a post. You, on the other hand, don't even seem to try to correct some of the errors I find in your posts.

Also, you really need to calm down. It's not the end of the world. Just have a beer, and chill out. I recommend that you take a break from this forum for a while. You are not really adding anything valuable to the thread, and to be honest you are just plain annoying at times.

In short, learn to type properly and intelligently, or take off. Sorry, for my harsh words, and off-topic post.

I agree with you ero-sennin, I mean, I can sympathize with his feelings about this film, however, he needs to learn to express it in a mature and comprehensible manner.
