Nope he won't be.. they said they wanted it to be more family friendly. They said he'll still have a sense of humor though, just not really perverted.
I've visit many Dragonball forums, and voice a long explanation as to why, and how this film is going to fail as a Dragonball film adaptation. The optimists are extremely thick headed.. It's also ironic how they call the 'anti-dbmovie' folks idiots for assuming that the film is going to turn out terrible without watching the film firsthand, when they themselves haven't done so either, and are praising the film for being 'creative'. All in all, this film is a fucking cash-grab attempt, ( a little late too..*rolls eyes, shakes head.. ) You'd be blind to not realize how mediocre the goddamn direction and filming is. Adding to the fact that Goku is horribly miscast (nothing against Chatwin) Moreso, the fucking designs for the characters don't even look remotely the same, save Chatwin's (goku) orange gi, you wouldn't even know this film was Dragonball. Seriously, I'm sick of the optimists slamming the folks going against this film. I'm going to see this with an open mind as well, but come on...open your eyes and accept the fact that this is a TERRIBLE adaptation, not to mention it's more than likely going to be executed in such a lackluster form. Additionally, the optimists tend to say that this film won't manage to 'taint' the Dragonball franchise and it's reputation, and yada yada yada....you're kidding me right? Fuck the EXTREME-optimists of the film. Blind as a bat for serious. Fucking. Abomination.
I think saying it'll ruin the franchise is a little bit sanctimonious. Then again I'll probably be saying the same if the live-action Cowboy Bebop turns out bad, haha.
People also said that about Dragonball GT but that is opinion based. (Not that this movie isn't but this is a bigger impact) I personally loved GT and own every episode on VHS (with the cool picture formed on the side of the cases)
You're joking, right? Gohan wouldn't have even been born yet, unless you're talking about Goku's grandfather.
Saw the trailer for the first time and I already know I won't go see the film. None of the actors look like the manga characters.
It's gonna be a martial arts film and wtf? Bulma? The chick looks nothing like her. Vegita wouldn't screw that version even if his life depended on it. It's gonna crap out and sell out the DBZ name entirely.
