Meybe some of you have heard of this already but yeah there's gonna be a live action Dragon Ball Z movie in 2008. Goku will be played by Justin Chatwin (The Invisible, Tom Cruise's son in War of The Worlds). The villain Piccolo is gonna be played by James Masters (Buffy, Proffesor Fine from Smallville). Master Roushi is gonna be played by Chow Yun Fat.

I fear is gonna turn into another Double Dragon because Dragon Ball Z doesn't have the complexity that you find in any other anime or comics. DBZ is simple, bad guy appears so hero fights him but hero can't win and gains more power to defeat him. It's been like that since DBZ all the way to GT. I mean anyone who saw The Covenant knows the fight scenes were as corny as h*ll with them trying to shoot kameyas or hadukens out of their hands and them flying all over the place.

So, what do you guys think?

i never really got into DBZ...but i did like the anime fight scenes...and with CG the way it is nowadays, it could be cool

here's the IMDB info on it: http://imdb.com/title/tt1098327/

and have you seen the trailer for the new Speed Racer movie?

Speed Racer looks like Spy Kids on wheels. lol But it's looking okay... lets see if they can improve it until it's December release. And Emile Hirsh isn't looking that good as Speed.

The only good thing i can say about Dragon Ball so far is that James Kyson Lee is rumored to play Yamcha and i guess that would be cool.

Is it going to be a Dragonball Z (Vegeta, Saiyans) or Dragon Ball movie Bulma's original quest, Kid Goku, through to the Piccolo and Junior saga?

Angus, the villain is gonna be Piccolo so i think the storyline will be that of the begining of Dragon Ball Z.

Angelo, you want the whole series summed up? Well Kid Goku is a saiyan who gets sent to eart to destroy it but upon arrival when he accidentaly hits himself on the head forgets his mission. Then Alien namek Piccolo decides to rule the world and Goku kicks his A$$ but dies in the proccess. So in order to come back he has to train in heaven because two saiyans come to finish what he never started. Then he kick both their asses!

Angus, can you finish? haha

Piccolo first shows up in Dragon Ball, and then the whole Saiyan (Vegeta and Nappa) concept starts in DBZ.

ok lemme summarize the general Dragon Ball story arcs

Goku joins Bulma in the quest for Dragon Balls.

Goku trains with Master Roshi (meeting Krillin, Launch) for his first tournament.

Goku goes on another Dragon Ball hunt but the enemy this time is the Red Ribbon Army.

Goku has to deal with the evil King Piccolo who is collecting Dragon balls and spreading destruction throughout the world.

Goku and the gang deal with Piccolo's reincarnation, Junior, at the third tournament.
Woof!

Well the movie is called Dragon Ball Z, so whatever happens it must be after Dragon Ball.

I hope it's as good as the Initial D live-action movie. That one changed up a bunch of the details but really covered the essence of the series.
