DRAGONBALL A hell of a lot of blurry newspaper scanned pics have recently surfaced of DRAGONBALL, the upcoming live action feature of the insanely popular Japanese manga series, but thanks to JM of Movieland, we have our first crystal clear, high res look at Justin Chatwin as protagonist Goku and devastatingly cute Emmy Rossum as Bulma. It's a picture we've seen before but this bad boy is in delicious high res. The story centers on Goku's quest to retrieve the seven titular Dragon Balls before the nefarious wizard Piccolo (James Marsters) gets his hands on them and does some mad crazy evil shit with them. Click on that glowing Dragon Ball to check out the high res goodness. The balls start flying April 10th of next year.

I give it, three thumbs down.



This won't be good at all. Goku looks like he's wearing a shirt he bought from Target. I don't think he got his gi from there.

this movie isnt proving anyone wrong, it is going to suck. i used to love dragonball as a kid, but i have no hope for this film. it just doesnt know what it wants to be. dragonball is about Goku going on adventures when he is a child, looking for the dragonballs along the way. DBZ is about a grown up uber-buff, Goku, with child, screamin alot, shooting colorful beams from god knows where...

DBZ is about a grown up uber-buff, Goku, with child, screamin alot, shooting colorful beams from god knows where fighting aliens from different planets. this movie kinda sorta takes the story from dragonball, but turns goku into most likely a brooding late teen, a movie that the actors will take WAAAYYYY to seriously as they did in speed racer, making the finished product, stupid and cringe-worthy..... Emmy Rossum is hot though,...still doesnt make me want to see this movie

I'm just not into this. I love James Marsters but just didn't get into DBZ.



and it just seems a little corny.

This movie will prove all the haters wrong! just wait and see, everyone is judging the film based on the pics and the look of the film, we are yet to see the final product and an official poster or trailer, still I think this movie is going to do well, and all the DB s**t talker's will get a kick in the BALLS!

I'm not gonna stop hating because with a fucking stupid looking Goku like that and what I saw before this it will be a steaming shit in the face of the manga.

Stop Hateing
I’m a big Dragon Ball Z fan so stoked to see how they could make a live action movie. Not going to go in expecting an Oscar winner but a fun movie.

The only Good thing within Dragonball is Emmy Rossum herself, who btw, looks fantastic here.

thank god you only meant 'good' in the resolution sort of way. i dont know which movie is going to make less, street fighter or D'Ball, i would say street fighter because we have already witness to a craptastic SF movie and the legion of dragonball fans are foaming at the mouth as we speak/type. and you forgot to mention the chinese live-action dragonball movie, which is even worse than the...
