this is the worst movie trailer i've ever seen in my entire life!!!
this movie might be worst too, unlike on TV show.

aw..is not pleased...aw...ruined my day..

The trailor looks very dissapointing. I predict it will suck. I totally agree with trevorsch; this movie could have been done well, but look lame.

yeah i know

we are going to be forced to see this movie because we watched the tv show way back

ugh

This will be the worst nine dollars I ever spend

dammit. I really wanted this movie to be done well. Instead it looks like crap.

shit...... is this for real?

I'll only be watching this because James Marsters is in it. Plus my boys want to see it as well. I was planning on watching it for free online. But they want to see it in the theaters. Who knows, it might actually be good. Can't judge a movie just on its trailer.

oh...i thought,Ichi the killer is fucking awesome,Thanks Rock

this is going to suck!!!! They have destroyed my childhood!!!!

THAT...is SOOOOO gonna.....SUCK!!!

It screams straight to dvd ,I wont be surprise if the sequels never see the light and day.

I Love Death note but your wrong saying it's the only good manga adaptation. Azumi , Izo and Ichi the Killer were fucking awesome

the only good movie based on manga is Death Note.

Bubblegum I read your comment and agree one hundred percent. I always hope these comments are relayed to people who make decisions.

I also wonder if there are enough of us true fans out there who know the stories and will support the movie? I guess if me and all of my friends from high school in the 90's know it so well all the way here in The Bahamas it will do well.

Do you know how long I have been wiating for them to this? I really hope they don't mess this up and stay true to the actual story line leading up to the Dragonball Z and GT series.

LOL AT RAVEN UR SO RIGHT LOL WOW IT LOOKS GOOD

Actually looks better than I thought it would.

Hatez people out there that giving bad comment to DragonBall, if so what the F*** u looking at it? Loser Dork :)Me and angie still think is the awesome crazy movie ever!!! Nananana!

Is going 2 rock. Can wait to see it with angie. LOL

OMG!!PICOLO LOOKS LIKE MICHAEL JACKSON AS AN ALIEN!

whrs the vegeta chutia????

It is hard to determine, from the trailer, the solidity of the plot and script of the movie, which will largely determine the movies success or failure.

Along with the script and storyline character development, story progression, mood, atmosphere, and special effects also play a large part. From the trailer however it seems as if the special affects part might be lacking a bit.

The director has the task of making the unrealistic realistic within reasonable bounds using the aforementioned tools.

I for one think that the director seems to be conscious of how far to push things and where certain things need to be edited so it doesn't turn into a power ranger free for all.

For example, piccolos skin color is a pale green instead of a dark green. A good move in my opinion because his skin being a solid green color would detract from the characters credibility, and the actor's role, taking the movie in the direction of Street Fighter the movie (A place none of us would want to ever go again).

Everything does not need to follow the outline set by the animation specifically. The director should know, however, which characters to use in order to develop a solid story in the given allotment of time without disappointing the fans or straying too far away from the original work unless you can make it ten times better.

Most people here seem to lean more toward the speed racer effect than the Transformers approach, in that you are more interested in a literal interpretation of the anime. If the director were to go in this direction the whole movie would probably be shot in a green room and the fight scenes would have to be pretty incredible.

Also directors have to pull in as many people as they possibly can to see the movie because there aren't as many hardcore fans as there are people who aren't and they want them to be able to follow along. I for one want the movie to be on a higher plane than the cartoon, achieving the level of realism and angst possessed by the Transformers movie while giving the fans what they want (great action scenes).

It's a delicate balance but it can be done. It especially helps when the director has a clear vision and appreciation for the movie they are making.

What direction the director will take remains to be seen. Although if this version does not turn out well another director may take it over and do it justice like in the case of Incredible Hulk. The first version was more of a comic book excerpt. The second version however had direction and translated better in regards to realism and the audience. I liked them both but the second version of the movie was my favorite of the two for obvious reasons.

WTF??????? WACK ASS SHIT !!!!!!

what the fuck are they doin to dragonball z? where r all characters?(they have made this half way through) why is goku is high school? and what happened to his hair?

Japan anime is never made good on the big screen... We need someone to take a giant shit on the director so he can smell what his movie will amount to. Dragon Ball was and is a good anime.

okay i just wanna say...
PICCOLO LOOKS BAD IN THIS TEASER!!!!!

Listen to the fans of how to make a movie and find a writer to come with a script to make it work, the writer has to be a fan himself, and knows the history of DRAGONBALL, DRAGONBALL Z and DRAGONBALL GT. If you are trying to just make money off the title then I suggest you wear bullet proof vests every where you go, because fans don't play that shit, when you fuck around with the anime series that they truly love to watch and come to love the characters. And all you want is to make money off the title, don't say I didn't warn you, expecially the hardcore fans in TOKYO.

You got to be fucking shittin me, is it me or does KAKAROT seem to be less confident about himself. I think he doesn't even act like the cheerful KAKAROT we all know. You movie people can't do shit right can yaw? IMO VEGETA and KAKAROT made Dragonball Z way more interesting than any character in the series. So if you are goingto make a movie based on the anime DRAGONBALL Z. Why the fuck you bitches decided to change from making Dragonball Z movie into a DRAGONBALL movie. I play the lottery every day and hopefully I will win someday so I can go to you movie people and i'm straight SLAPPIN somebody. Then I will fix your mess, and satisy the hardcore fans with all the characters.
