Damn, Chow would be awesome as Tienshinhan! Anyway, I hope the fact that it's so close to April 1 doesn't mean anything...

Great,I'll have a bottle of Wild Turkey scheduled for 4/3/09.Sure as hell wouldn't watch it sober.I'll have to chug to keep from comparing the Anime and Manga.I'd like to remember it as a decent movie,if anything at all.Hope they keep the crude humor the series is known for.I also hope the name alone suckers in enough business to greenlight DBZ.Haters are going to have a field day,a year from now.

Mmm, well I guess it's good that they are not putting it up against the summer blockbusters, lol, although it really does seem to feel like a summer film.

Either way though, February-April is usually when the studios drop their stinkers so that they can bring out the big guns May-July. I hope this doesn't mean anything.

Fox's website now lists the date as 4/8/09. This is a Wednesday. This would be very strange to open on a Wednesday if they truly that it would be a failure. Strange move.

Awww, I was looking forward to a 08/15 release date, because it was the day before my birthday. And what better way would there be to celebrate an 18th birthday than see a crappy live action version of a young boy's anime? Laughing

Not really. It would get a head start on the other movies and make more money than it would have if it opened on a Friday.
