Oh, Man, now I'm kinda worried. That guy in the orange shirt is supposed to be Goku? And he's in high school? Sounds like when Gohan went to high school and became SaiyaMan..  ..
It looks like they're gonna give it the Smallville treatment-- he's even wearing orange, like Tom Welling always wears red and blue. I hope they don't make Goku and gang as annoyingly angsty as everyone on Smallville! When I heard they were gonna make a live-action DBZ movie, I had my fingers crossed for Jet Li. Unfortunately, I don't know anyone on the cast list except James Marsters-- too bad he'll be hiding under all that makeup. I'm so anxious to see how things turn out! (After looking at the pictures some more) Ya gotta admit, though... that boy is mighty fine. |

It's kind of ironic too, considering how liberal and progressive Hollywood thinks it is. |

No it's supposed to just be Dragonball but people are obviously too used to adding the Z |

Where are the pictures? http://www.themovieinsider.com/m685/dragonball-z/ In 2010 there will be a sequel. That sucks that it's starting when he was a teenager. I liked the eariler episodes. Hopefully, the movie doesn't follow the pacing of the anime. DBZ's pacing was worse but DB was pretty slow. |

For some reason, I just don't trust that site, I'll look for other resources.... >.>;; Liiiike these. http://blogs.hoycinema.com/movieland/post/2007/12/15/aexclusiva-primeras-imagenes-dragon-ball-y-set-se (link was posted before, btw. Just saving the hell of searching back again) o_o; Goku doesn't have long spiked hair, but I rather this than something unrealistic. *thinks for a moment.* I would reallly like to see how they do this. Though people will already moan and whine about it, I'll hold my thoughts further until I see more production photos. But Goku going to high school? THAT is what I find a little funny. Weeee....Hmm...feels like deja vu. |

The altering of the story doesn't bother me,what bothers me is they will probably use the same generic CGI they used in Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle.People don't seem to know that Dragonball was already made into a live action movie.A horrible movie.

Shadowrun: Um, the cg in Shaolin Soccer and KFH was awesome. I'm more concerned with it looking like LXG.

Yeah care to elaborate? I mean, I'm always complaining that CG is fake; I think makeup and models and what have you will always have the upper hand when handled masterfully. Case in point: John Carpenter's The Thing. But the reality Stephen Chow pushes in his films doesn't necessitate that level of realism, don't you think?
Well, whatever. I think they're more likely to fudge up the fight scenes. Especially with the fast-editing style fight scene trend that has escalated to retarded proportions. If you look at something like Hero there were several actors (Tony Leung, Zhang Zhiyi) who weren't amazing martial artists or anything, but the right coordination of camerawork and choreography certainly delivered the illusion. I'd be pretty impressed if they took a page from that book, but its hardly expected. |

Kung Fu Hustle was good to me, I didn't think the special effects were too overwhelming...

He's a good actor, but I wouldn't think of him as a perv, but Chow Yun Fat is apparently Master Roshi.

He was a slight perv in the Pirates 3 movie...
But hmm...I find this interesting. I can't see him as Roshi, though... But they're certainly hiring a lot of Asian Actors... o_o; |

As far I remember the Reforpan newspaper  said it was being shoot in Coyoacan. To be specific in the Coyoacan Campus of Unitec University. You don't live in Mexico City, right?
The flyers bout being an extra in a movie sounds interesting, do they said how much they pay daily? |
