Ok I don't have much credibility cause I really don't post on the Countingdown boards. But I really have to say that I Have second thoughts about this film. the first thing that got me ticked off was that while scrolling through this thread I read that Piccolo will not have antenna. Is this just going to be a green guy in a turban? I mean shouldn't he look like he obviously isn't human instead of a green Arab? (no offense)
second was the post saying the women should have breast implants and I can't really say that that matters in a film series based on epic battles. Besides I think I read somewhere that the breast sizes of the characters are not that big they are probably some the most realistically sized boobs in anime.
The next thing is the one that really irks me. is that they have put these fantasy characters in the real world. I mean Dragon Ball and DBZ/DBGT are set in a world where there are clouds you can fly on, energy beams, capsules that can turn into just about anything, Dinosaurs/saber tooth tigers, Aliens with monkey tails(of which i haven't heard anything on whether they have included that detail) The story From what I have heard from the postings(so don't get too angry if I don't have the facts straight) and other rumors has the film looking more like The Karate Kid with the DBZ characters thrown into it.
This is a fantasy series that is looking more and more like nobody wants to do it the way the fans fell in love with it, They just want to re-invent it when it was done right the first time(seems to be the trend in Hollywood . . . oh wait i think I'll make that better by reinventing it too Hollywood will now be spelled HoullyWoode. That's better right?)
I hope that I am Wrong Because I would love the Dragonball series to be a great film franchise.
Oh and on the pics that are on the movie blog, I thought yamcha and chi chi looked alright , I'm still not happy with chatwin, and Bulma looks a little like a hooker(sorry), and master roshi just seems wrong. these actors/actresses will have to be stellar on screen to lead people from wanting a literal translation from TV to Film.
Wow I wrote a LOT (sorry no refunds on time wasted reading this)

this is Piccolo Daimao not Piccolo Jr. Only Jr wore the turban and caped shoulder armour.

Uh... aren't anime chicks supposed to be stacked? I mean, I've seen two girls from this movie so far, neither of which have big tits. I'm sorry, but if you want to be faithful, give em some implants!

Bulma never had big tits nor did androd 18 and Chi Chi's where about avrage size. I don't think i ever see a large breasted chick in DB.

True! Thanks for that reminder. I had over looked it in my desire to release my frustrations. That said I still can't wait till the trailer is released(I know that is a long way off). It will help me determine whether or not I'll watch it or avoid it.
Oh I also wanted to pass along a question from my sister. She said that when she saw the images of the film characters She asked "Doesn't it look like they are approaching this with the same "Quality" as the mortal kombat sequal?"

Dragonball-live would have received an e-mail of someboduy who was at the London Expo 2008, and who has met and spoken to Ernie Hudson.
Ernie Hudson would have told to this guy that he plays in the movie a monk, Master Mutaito, Master Roshi's master, who has created Piccolo's contain-jail.

If it's thrue, maybe the photo of Chow Yun Fat with hair is a photo of a young Master Roshi, and maybe we will see a flash-back of Piccolo's catch.

I think we can get a better understanding of the pic of Roshi with this. Please pardon the fact that English is his second language:

Thanks to Therion23 at liveactionanime.org for this.

If this is true and Ernie is playing Roshi's Master and we will see the original trapping of Demon Piccolo, then this pic could very well be of Roshi when he was younger and He didn't have a bald head, a beard and shades yet.

this is what happens when people look at one pic and draw a conclusion without really thinking about what they're seeing. I'm sure that as more info is released we will see that our stupid assumptions as just that - stupid!
