I have to say, for a movie based on a manga and trading card game, the Dragonball Z flick is accumulating quite the impressive cast of thespians. Announced today is the casting of Chow Yun-Fat of The Replacement Killers and Anna and the King fame.
Already cast in the film are Emmy Rossum of Songcatcher and James Marsters of The House on Haunted Hill. You know, looking back on it, they probably could have gotten some bigger name talent, like that guy from The Killer or that lady from Phantom of the Opera.
What do you think?

Seriously, they should have done this movie with an advanced anime art style, or full CGI (a la FFVII: Advent Children) I can't imagine DBZ live action.
And Chow-Yun Fat huh? Who's he going to play? Mr. Popo? Master Roshi? LOL
Then again, I think that all those trading card games are lame so I don't really pay attention.
I want to see a Perfect Hair Forever movie!
Lets keep our fingers cross hoping it doesn't suck complete ass
IT"S OVER 9,000!!!
Gosh... Why not name it: The Karate Kid with Superpowers!!!
My expectations have totally vanished...
you are correct. he was against Goku until the other Saiyans showed up. which is what bothers me, as that happens in like the second episode.
Now this movie is not going to be a carbon copy of the manga or the anime. This is going to be one of those movies similar to Super Mario Brothers where sure the movie has the name but it has nothing to do with the source material outside of the names of the characters, locations, and the relationships between the characters.

1) How the hell are they going to do their hair in live action?
2) No Super Sayains.
3) This franchise is no longer relevant.
4)It's a rumbled cartoon.
in other words, it's going to be a huge disappointment for the fans of the series. which i'm not one of, btw.
There are 23 positions in a one night stand.
IF what u say is true this will suck complete ass no doubt about it
Real Life DBZ movie = fail (more than likely)
I don't think even Chow Yun-Fat could stop this train wreck.
*caution: spoilers ahead*
Act 1
AAAAAAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa aaaaaHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhh!
Act 2
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HHHHHHHHHHHhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhh!
Act 3 Epic Fail!
First off everone is assuming and spiting out opinions without having any idea what you speak of. Give it a chance before you burn it to the ground.
Second, its a DRAGONBALL movie for goodness sake. wheather bad or good everyone of ya will watch it. even those of you posting bad comments about the movie before even seeing what it acually looks like.
it will be intresting to see where they go with it.
I predict Super Sayian Transformation at the very end battle scene leaving the movie open for sequels.

you have obviously never seen a big buget movie that has intergrated CGI with acually live action footage.
If hollywood can combine dinosaurs and human together and make it look real they can defenetly change black hair to yellow with ease.
:freakin' idiots, i swear:
If they can make the fighting scenes look like the one in matrix 3 (Neo and Smith fight). Then we have an exciting movie to wait for. Anything less would be sad.
Why do you thing they'll do it in the movie. Just cause its live action doesnt mean there gonna make Goku and Gohan human they'll still be sayains. duh..
yeah, good point. i'm sure ILM will be doing all the effects, so what do we have to worry about? toerag.
2)its little goku, king piccolo, earth, and some people. no vegetta, no villain but king piccolo.
3)he doesn't go super sayain till the freiza saga (you all know that)
4)He doesn't have a kid in that period so no gohan.
5)he would have already met chi-chi.
this movie will probably suck if they make it like Super Mario Brothers but dammit, I'm seeing it anyway.
but seriously. who's chow yun fat gonna be? the closest thing to an asian in the series was Uub and he was black.
they're going to collect all the dragon balls and resurrect Li Mu Bai.
Naked women and sex are not always the answer for everything.
Now, for my thoughts of this movie: the script better follow the King Piccolo saga the right way or it's gonna suck badly. Also, for ending, make sure it takes place when Goku and ChiChi get married, have a son named Gohan with a tail, and bring us a special surprise for a sequel: Raditz!
