If only. He’s supposed to be a stud this time around. So basically I guess we’re meant to believe he has a taste for jailbait.

Wow. Way to fuck up a couple of characters. Goku the emotionless high school student with confidence issues and Yamcha the middle-aged ultra-stud.

This does explain Puar's absence in the film. He probably already died over the years! :shock:

LOL if you saw Joon Park in an interview you would know he sounds exactly like Yamcha and acts like him too.
If challenge had a taste, you'd be quite delicious.

Yeah, but what does the script call for him to do? It isn't like I'm hating on Joon Park. I liked him in Speed Racer. I'm just wondering what he had to do for the Dragonball film.

It's hard to say. We have very little on Movie-Yamcha, and that's not much besides small bits about his role (starts out attacking them, joins up instead, hooks up with Bulma). We haven't gotten extensive info or glimpses into his personality like with the other characters.

It's like I need to keep reminding myself Yamcha's even in the movie at all.

Yamcha the middle aged ultra-stud OR Yamcha the pedophile... that didn't come into anyone else's thought process?

I still have to wonder if Bulma's 16 in this. Also, at her age (if she is 16), I would consider it more "jailbait" or "...with a minor" than "pedophilia" or "...with a child."

That, or "Creepy Older Guy." Either one is fine.

Actually Emmy is 22. But you're right, Joon Park is indeed 39. Still makes him almost 40 though. :P

Ah, only a year older than me, if that. I knew we were perfect for each other. 8)

I always wonder about the age of the people who post on this and other Dragonball board. I think I have finally figured it to be boys under 10 and women over 40. Any guy over 10 would be talking about how hot Mai is instead of commenting on how Piccolo looks. And most of James Marsters’ fan base are women over 40. I’m not disrespecting anyone because of their age because I feel any age, whether it is 1 or 101 is a great age to be, but I was just trying to figure to what the age group this movie will appeal.

I kinda see where they were going with the bandit look, but it's just a little dull and the toussled bleached hair looks bad(and I normaly like bleached hair, though on girls).

Maybe it was a fan...? Or maybe an owner of some James Marsters site.
