    Weather or not japan made this may or may not destory the image of DB for those who see it. Akira Toriyama is probaby turning over in his grave. Personally im not goin to waste the time or the money

    Sounds like Toriyama is making an excuse for the film. He said an alternate dimension meaning he knows they shat all over his works and he's trying to lessen the blow by saying that they're simply making it a different storyline from the original.

    I for one am annoyed at the fact that they made it without him being on the staff, he made the thing and seems like he wasn't even asked if they could take his manga shit all over it and then make it into a film.

    This is one definetly angry DB/Z/GT fan right here.

    This is a complete utter nightmare. How the hell can Hollywood or Japan or whoever allowed this be even willing to go through with this ? I remember Funimation was saying there was a movie coming, but then it became a fricken rumor later on. Then now seeing the trailer it screws up everything the story line, alter the characters appearances and make one fight that doesn't even know how to in the first place. DB fans are really going to hate this! How hard is to make the characters appear the way that a dragonball fan or anyone familar with anime would see through it through their perspective? If they can millions of dollars in other movies that include special effects this one wouldn't be that hard either. What really pisses me off is the cheap images of the characters in the first place.

    Even if it another dimension or not it not hard to protray the characters to look like they are in fact db characters and not come from some cheap science fiction spoof......This is makiing fun of it and ruining the image -___-

    If i ever see this movie, i'm going to watch something else first and then sneak in. Justin Chatwin as Goku was the stupidest casting move ever made. wait no, strike that, its close in second to Lance Bass as Sephiroth.

    and WTF is up with Bulma? Seriously!

    Watchin' the trailers for this film has shattered my childhood memories of the anime. DragonBall should never be a live action film, it could never work. Besides, if they were gonna hold true to the essence of DragonBall they'd have to create one film of Goku powerin' up n' then another for Piccolo, n' one final film for the actual battle.

    It would work if it was done right. If they actually followed the story line and not have this made up crap. Not the way they protrayed then I agree with you.
