New Photos Revealed from Dragonball

Source:  Comic Book Movie
Things have been a little quiet from the folks at Dragonball, and fans of the manga and anime series are certainly wondering what they can expect from the film adaptation. And thanks to Comic Book Movie, we now have a new peak at the action from the film, in the form of three new stills from the movie.

The first shows Goku (Justin Chatwin) avoiding a blow from Piccolo (James Marsters), while the second two photos show off two of the lovely Dragonball ladies - Eriko Tamura as Mai, and Jamie Chung as Chi-Chi. Check out the photos below.

Dragonball is based off the Akira Toryama manga comic and the film stars Justin Chatwin, James Marsters, Jamie Chung, Emmy Rossum, Eriko Tamura, Joon Park, Chow Yun-Fat, Texas Battle, Randall Duk Kim and Ernie Hudson. The film is set to open on April 10, 2009.

I agree LEO, they should have just had this appeal to the real DB fans.. even though we will all be seeing this, we will be the only ones seeing it, and instead of making a kick ass Live Action DBZ that could appeal to action junkies who arnt even DBZ fans, they are turning around and making a non-authentic, campy, piece of shit... to hell 20th century, to hell.

I know they use guns in DB Phat, i've watched the whole series but im saying like why don't they update it a little. I agree with LEO in that they are trying to appeal to the audience who haven't seen DB by using variables that they are not familiar with i.e. kamehameha beams. And by using guns, although it is sticking to the variables of DB (because people in DB were not familiar with saiyins and their enemies' powers), this movie will also be typical of 21st century movies, which have constant use of guns.

What they're trying to do is appeal to the audience that hasn't seen Dragonball. And this is total bulls**t for two reasons:

1. It should appeal to us, the DRAGONBALL FANS. We are the ones who love the show, so it should be geared toward US.

2. Those who haven't seen Dragonball are either those who just plain haven't seen it, or are Dragonball Haters. Dragonball is a show that you either love or you hate (I'm one of the one's who loves it), and those who hate it will DEFINITELY not see it. So by trying to appeal to those who haven't seen it, they are appealing to an INSIGNIFICANT, TINY, MINISCULE AUDIENCE THAT'S SO SMALL, IT SHOULDN'T EXIST.

And because of these reasons, it's goint to get NO money in the box office, it's gonna bomb big time, and the sequels will get cancelled. It's inevitable. Everyone here's thinkin' it, I'm just saying it.

The only way they can save it now is if they reboot it like they did with the Incredible Hulk. And this time, do it right.

BURN IN HELL, 20TH CENTURY FOX!!!

I really don't think this will be as bad as some cartoon made movies that we've seen (Inspector Gadget) But I'm still a little worried.

I mean they are even using guns to kill enemies. What happened to old-fashioned fist fighting, hand blasting, super fast teleportation and the typical power grunts?

This is gonna flop just like street fighter movie did. They are gonna twist the plot and characters just to fit in the category of blockbuster movies and for people who dont exactly know the storyline of dragon ball or DBZ.

What?! You've got to be kidding me Kupo! Mortal Combat sucked balls! That had to be one of the worst movies I'd ever seen. Let us all hope that this film we be a whole lot better than Mortal Combat, otherwise no one will go see this movie.

i like your idea tyler.. that would have been sweet, just focus it primarily on the saiyans and they came to rule.. I would have liked that.. then just leak it right into DBZ or something.. well, unless they shelf this POS it will never happen. fuck.

Hope the movie turns out way better but all im hoping 4 is Goku's signature move (KAMEHAMEHA WAVE 4 THOSE THAT DONT KNOW). As lon as that aint crap then im good. Also the best videogame movie out there is SILENT HILL.

either way she looks hot and i agree with that. he does make good movies so HOPEFULLY it rubs off into this. I really want this to work. And residet evil was good as well as Hitman. Max Payne was trash.

wow, from the look of these pictures i can already tell how horrible this movie is going to be. They should have just made this into a TV movie, because i have a feeling this movie will not do good at all

Meh I still not liking the look of Piccolo but I'm so totally seeing this movie.

@system9191

I agree that this movie doesn't look too great--at the moment, but i still have high hopes for it, since stephen chow is overseeing the project as producer. I absolutely love his films, especially shaolin soccer. So maybe some of that charm will rub off onto the film and its director James Wong.

And btw, wth are you talking about? Mortal Kombat being bad? That was actually the only decent videogame movie ever made, it was the sequel that was horrible.

@THE JOKER

Eriko Tamura is not the one wearing the white gown, that's Jamie Chung from "The Real World" (yes that horrible mtv show)

Tamura is the one in the last pic, wearing a maroon colored suit.
