Thumbs Up! Looks great... But I'm looking forward to seeing Vegeta. Can't wait for this trailer.
DanteSparda - 6/29/2012, 11:53 AM
KAKAROT!!!
CronoA7X - 6/29/2012, 11:55 AM
Cant wait for Vegeta as well, his armor just better not look anything like the one Raditz wore.
Luminus - 6/29/2012, 11:58 AM
That single still at the bottom is better and more entertaining than the entire Dragonball: Evolution movie. This fan film/trailer cannot possibly go wrong, if for that alone.
MrSuperheromoviefan - 6/29/2012, 12:21 PM
Looks cool, but I'm not so sure because it's dark.
Atleast he looks like a fighter unlike evolution.
Can't wait!
StrangerX - 6/29/2012, 12:24 PM
I really need to see this
TheAmazingChrisReeve63 - 6/29/2012, 12:25 PM
Well, now. This looks interesting. I've heard about this, but never thought they would go ahead with this. Well, bring on more characters. :)
TheAmazingChrisReeve63 - 6/29/2012, 12:27 PM
@Blockbanester - It actually looks like it'll do better than that fail of a fail that Hollywood gave birth to. Hell, at least they got the costume down.
TayDee - 6/29/2012, 12:46 PM
I can careless if he looks like Goku, I just want a decent portrayal
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 12:59 PM
Way too dark...this trailer is gonna be EPIC!
Deadpool101 - 6/29/2012, 1:15 PM
oh hell yes must see VEGETA!!!
OdinsBeard - 6/29/2012, 1:17 PM
lol that hair is ridiculous. c'mon guys that hair does not translate to live action
Deadpool101 - 6/29/2012, 1:17 PM
he is over 9000!!
thewonderer - 6/29/2012, 1:25 PM
This is [frick]ing stupid.

I KNOW DBZ was created in Japan, but Goku doesn't theoretically have to look Asian.

Goku, Vegeta, all the saiyans and Piccolo aren't from Earth. I actually thought Justin Chatwin wasn't bad per se, its the terrible script more than anything.

So [frick] this, an asian Goku? that ruins the image I've had of him as a child
TheAmazingChrisReeve63 - 6/29/2012, 1:25 PM
@monkeyballs3 - LMAO!! Aahhhh.....XD
Greengo - 6/29/2012, 1:27 PM
Anything is better than the last travesty.

This already looks 100X better!

SolidSnake007 - 6/29/2012, 1:28 PM
Wow. First Ruroni Kenshin and now DBZ?!!!!! I need to move to Japan. What's next Inuyasha, Yu Yu Hakisho, Bleach, Naruto? My vote is on Trigun.
dahamma - 6/29/2012, 1:32 PM
@thewonderer I actually agree!!

I think DBZ is SO freaking amazing. I just wish we could get a serious big budget film with these characters. And like with most anime MOST of the characters dont look asian. And Goku isn't from earth so to heck with him looking asian.

I would KILL to see Frieza saga on the big screen!!

....screw this mess...
CronoA7X - 6/29/2012, 1:35 PM
@ monkeyballs3

dahamma - 6/29/2012, 1:39 PM
@monkeyballs3, I just think he should look like Goku which this guy doesn't.

that other guy sucked also from evolution garbage.
tracydavis001 - 6/29/2012, 1:40 PM
So far, so good!!
CronoA7X - 6/29/2012, 1:41 PM
I like how when Chatwin was revealed to be Goku, everyone complained he was white, and now in this project an asian actor is Goku and everyone is complaining he is asian.
GUNGRAVE1 - 6/29/2012, 1:47 PM
Like this DBZ BRING IT ON.
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 1:52 PM
@SolidSnake

If anyone EVER has the audacity to try and adapt NARUTO to live-action, look for me on the news......I'll be the dude with the sniper rifle...
Deadpool101 - 6/29/2012, 1:53 PM
must see vegeta damn!!
DanteSparda - 6/29/2012, 1:56 PM
@Intruder

Just chill Intruder. I'm ok with it, doesn't really bother me as long as the acting is good, after all what right do we have to complaint is a fan film.
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 1:59 PM
Think of it this way guys, GOKU looks more or less like everyone else in DRAGONBALL right? I mean, he doesn't have a drastically different skin tone or facial features right? Well, if CHI CHI, MASTER ROSHI, and especially YAMCHA (whom he looks VERY similar to) are undisputedly Asian, wouldn't it stand to reason that GOKU looks Asian himself???

HAHA! Refute that sh!t!
edwardshiro - 6/29/2012, 1:59 PM
Can´t wait. Ka me ha me haaaaaaaaaaaaaa

thewolfx - 6/29/2012, 2:01 PM
when will these asshats learn saiyans dont look [frick]in asain!

also

@intruder

the [frick] did you get german from?
marvel72 - 6/29/2012, 2:03 PM
does looks better than the fox film but saying that the bar wasn't raised that high with that movie.
armalarm - 6/29/2012, 2:04 PM
trailer It's too bad they are only making a trailer and not the entire film.
Trailer is going to be about 5 mins
CronoA7X - 6/29/2012, 2:07 PM
It was a joke monkeyballs, just felt like showing a "wrong" video to you since you showed a "right" video.
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 2:13 PM
No takers I see..... ;)
DanteSparda - 6/29/2012, 2:15 PM
@Intruder

Yeah, the problem is that most of the budget must have gone to pay the rights of the franchise, as is one of the most famous anime's in history it's rights are very expensive.
redsoxdude - 6/29/2012, 2:17 PM
Intruder...that is the most well said thing in the history of things that are said. Hollywood has a budget...yet they produce crap a lot.

Also, i didn't get the memo that we would have to go to comicbookmovie.com/news.... i was beginning to think the Error Maintenance screen was going to be here forever! Someone could have sent me the memo :P lol
dahamma - 6/29/2012, 2:24 PM
I agree with Inturder, the show had all kinda races in my opinion. They even had the blackest person alive with mr popo!! lol
dahamma - 6/29/2012, 2:25 PM
and uub looked indian
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 2:40 PM
Haha, MR POPO is one of the most racistist characters ever drawn, lol I remember watching it when I was a kid thinking, "are they allowed to do that???" lmao

@TRUDY

Fcuk, I forgot about that fcuking cat!!! Haha, well I still don't understand how making them all Asian is worse/better than making them all Asian. JESSICA ALBA is what happens when you mix a whole sh!t load of races together. She claims Mexican/German now for simplicity sake, but when she first became famous I remember reading an interview where she explained her full heritage, and it was everything from black to polish. Don't know why I felt it necessary to share that with you, but there it is, lol.

Honestly, who gives a sh!t, I'm just happy that people who LOVE the source material are trying to do something for the fans....

Oh and NARUTO > DRAGONBALL all day son!!!!!! ;)
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 2:41 PM
***worse/better than making them all WHITE
Ghaleonausa - 6/29/2012, 2:57 PM
@Just1Superguy. Actually Goku has black hair, someone that grew up on dbz should know that. but you are right who ever heard of an asian man with black hair..... oh wait
marvel72 - 6/29/2012, 2:57 PM

Talontd - 6/29/2012, 3:08 PM

Talontd - 6/29/2012, 3:08 PM
Haha, pear harbor...
laughterman26 - 6/29/2012, 3:10 PM
i will only accept jon foo as goku
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 3:10 PM
@Marvel72

Pein Vs. Naruto & Naruto Vs. Sasuke are two of the best fight scenes ever animated
laughterman26 - 6/29/2012, 3:11 PM
that top picture looks horrible the set photo looked better
DanteSparda - 6/29/2012, 3:13 PM
WTF? Why aren't you arguing about Batman ans the Avengers? Why are you talking about Naruto?
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 3:18 PM
^^^Cuz Naruto is and has been the #1 Anime for over 10 YEARS! Japanese comics bro, it's relevant and if you haven't checked any out before I recommend Full-Metal Alchemist, Naruto, & Bleach....so really good stories over there...
Talontd - 6/29/2012, 3:18 PM
*some really good...
ManOfKrypton - 6/29/2012, 3:25 PM
That looks awful... Love the costume, they nailed that... but he looks nothing like him!
