Old article but still. I used to be a big fan when I was younger, so I'm a bit interested. I'm a bit curious as to how their going to make it all happen.

It's supposed to be live action, that's what got me interested.

That's going to be crazy if it is. I wonder how they'll make the beams come out of their hands. Maybe they'll do it Beowulf style. Half live, some 3D.

Would be kinda cool if they did make it fully live action.
 
Apparently there is already a "Dragon Ball" movie in progress. Set to be out in August.

Justin Chatwin is playing Goku.
 
The girl who's playing Chi Chi is hot!

EDIT: Oh ****!! That's the hottie from Real World San Diego
 
That kid was pretty cool in War of the Worlds.

Wow, I loved that Jamie girl from the Real World! Seriously, I'm in love with her and Cameron. Those 2 made that Real World the only one worth watching haha

I wanna know who plays the short bald dude and Vegeta-ble
 
DBZ used to be the shit until they ruined it with GT. Anyways, I've always been hoping DBZ would make it on the big screen with "real" actors, just from curiosity since I've always been such a big fan. I honestly don't know what to expect from this movie, but I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be a cheesy box office flop. But who knows, hopefully they'll put in some cool villans. My favorite is Freeza, but I have no idea how they will work everything out. They'll probably just use a saiyan as an enemy because it'll be easier to act out. Maybe Vegeta and Nappa, or Raditz? The only problem is that those villans were early on in the story, which means no super saiyan transformation
 
On wikipedia, it says its gonna be a Dragonball movie, not a DBZ movie.

Oooooh that explains no Vegita and no bald dude. Also, it explains the including of Mai...who I don't remember being in DBZ.

Laaaaaaaaaame
 
If its Dragon Ball, isn't Goku a kid, which Justin Chatwin is not? Anyway, I don't see how Justin Chatwin fits the role of Goku lol.

They should of made the movie every evil character. Like, the last one in DBZ after Super Boo, Raditz, I think his name was. He was awesome. Just have them all together for one huge battle.

Well I've been hearing about a DBZ movie. I'm fully aware of the Dragon Ball movie. I'm probably wrong though.
 
This is the guy they should have cast:
Steven Strait: next seen in 10000 BC

As for Chi-Chi
The girl from the Real World is hot but can she act?
I would have chosen her:
Kristen Kreuk: Seen in Smallville

Yep, about 10 years too late.
 
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (huevonkiller @ Feb 23 2008, 12:00 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}></div><div class='quotemain'>I doubt they can pull this off right. Even if it was 10 years ago.</div>
James Wong is an average director...

The only way this movie could be done right was if one of 5 directors did it...

1) Christopher Nolan
2) The Wachoski Brothers
3) Guillermo Del Toro
4) Robert Rodriquez
5) Alfonso Cuaron

Maybe Quentin Tarantino or Sam Raimi...

That's absolutely it though...
 
i heard Dicapreo is making a real life action film of Akira. That should be real sweet

That sounds much more interesting and pragmatic to create.
 
I would love for someone to make a Ghost in the Shell live action film or a Fullmetal alchemist live action film.

....


(Anime geekiness is now more visible than ever.....)
 
akira is one of my favorites. cant wait to hear more on both the DBZ movie and Akira.
 
Rurouni kensin, YuYu Hakusho, Naruto, Bleach, Full Metal Alchemist...all anime I'd love to see done in live action in the future...
