Dragon Ball Z Goes to Mexico

as all of us know hollywood is on the brink of being completely dry with ideas. all it is nowadays is this stupid trilogy prequel sequel crap. all the movies known to man are being bought out and expanded upon. so in a sense i can see where most of you are coming from when you say this movie will blow. but look at the facts:
chatwin playing goku=lame
but
chatwin +training group 87eleven=huge buff kid with some positive outlook, it can be pulled off.

if any of you remember that movie volcano high with the kids with powers and the voices of all the rappers, you will see that the ki blasts in that (although minimal) have some serious potential. of course there will be some serious color changes to the blasts but wateva. any way, the movie can start out as the end of dragonball with goku beating KING PICCOLO, not sure if marsters will play the piccolo we all know and love, or his father who was evil. cuz remember piccolo came from an egg after his father was killed by goku. also note that the entire movie is about his as a teen and not the adult from Z. the movie could be about his teen battles with piccolo and towards the end show an adult actor as goku with the chi-chi character holding their son gohan. then they feel an earth shattering quake being raditz crashlanding and then piccolo coming to goku for help. i doubt vegeta and nappa will be in the move but if they are it will prolly be a flashback made by raditz when explainng to goku taht 2 more saiyans are on their way. unless marsters as piccolo gets beat in th ebeginning and gohan gets born and raditz shows up towards the end and gets beat, i really dont know. i think that if the movie is to be released on AUG 15 of 2008, we are all screwd cuz that is far too soon. i mean dont get me wrong i wana see it but if they do it right it should take longer. plus its being filmed in mexico so i really dont want to see a bunch of mexican kung fu masters bouncing around and stuff. but i also heard a guy from the hit tv show heroes has tried out for the part of yamcha. i dont wathc the show but i believe it to be the guy who plays andos or andros or a name similar to that.

all in all i have high hopes for this movie, but i am already prepared do to throw soda and candy at the screen half way thru

i like the fact that their making this in mexico, it seems to fit the scenery from the show... but i really do hope this movie works out and doesn't tank, because sequels would be really sweet, when Goku grows up.. but yea, i dont know what i'm gonna think about this not being in anime.. how the hell do they expect to pull piccolo off? hah or krelin? and i agree captheck, def the guy who played liu kang as the aged goku, he fits the description well..

Ok I'm scared hahaha. If done well it could be a total success, still kind of skeptic. I mean, Marsters as Piccolo? Naaaa Piccolo is like 8 feet tall and Marsters is like 5 lol even though it can be fixed but anyways. OMG dude Christopher Judge as Piccolo? Great call! INDEED! :P Jet Lee must be Vegeta, my best friend and I have been thinking about it for ages and he was always thought as Vegeta and at that time the guy who played Liu Kang in Mortal Kombat would be Goku. Anyways I'll just cover my eyes till the movie arrives haha.

exactly! vegeta! i think some info was wrong, if not I wish i had james wong's e-mail, ffs, marsters would make an awesome vegeta, can u think of someone who is better suited, he is awesome as a bad attitude, from stuff like buffy, he occassionaly is a bit mopey in buffy, like in the broly movie, and for another thing chris judge has like the most fitting character for piccolo!!!! LOOK AT STARGATE!!!

call me stupid...but id like to make sure this isn't animated??? right???? oh please...fine!

yeah i think Jet Li should be vegeta no doubt.. hes perfect. cuz vegeta is small like him. but goku should be someone new. a new actor. cuz no one right now fits his views. but i think think tony jaa should be gohan.. hes too old for it.

Tony Jaa as Gohan , Jet Li as Vegeta, Somebody as Goku but not Jackie Chan, he barely can speak clear english

¡Bienvenido Goku!

I must confess to being a huge DBZ fan. While part of me wants to see this movie, the other (much larger part) is telling me that this will not be an anime that translates well to live-action. I look forward to when the trailers come out so I can get an edjucated guess, but I look for this movie to be a major dissapointment.

OHH MAN THIS IS THE BEST NEWS I'VE RECEIVED! MAN TELL THAT JET LI WILL BE VEGETA, HE WILL BE THE PERFECT ONE, JUST PICTURE HIM WHIT VEGETA'S HAIR AND TELL ME HE ISN'T THE PERFECT ONE??... GOKU JACKIE CHAN, BECAUSE OF THE FUNY PARTS, U ALL KNOW THAT GOKU IS KIND OF FUNNY...

Holy crap a Dragon Ball Z movie!?! If done right this could be sweet!

Come on make it a 15! make it amazing, epic, and brutal! etc. etc. (visit my dragonball post in "coming soon")

THANK YOU GOD!! DBZ featuring Vegeta! hell yeah!

No way! I can't wait for this movie! I've been waiting for this for years. This movie will have huge potential if they do it right like those Matrix fighting scenes (flying and punching) should kick this sht up a notch make it better fighting!
