ok.maybe I can see Bill Goldberg as Nappa...but the rest of the supposed cast...no way!!
some things should be left the way they are.....dbz should stay animated.

brendan fraser as Goku

..wtf?!!?
utter bullshit.

I honestly think he could play Goku. Watch Blast From the Past then watch The Mummy.

He can act kind and gentle enough but he can also act really pissed.

SSJBulma · 11-11-2004

The gentle I get....but would the hair really suit him

Plus he's not the beefiest of people&well the dbz warriors are.Plus has any of these actors even heard of Dbz before the script was apparently given to them?

.Sylvia · 11-11-2004

I spose that the nearest thing there is to DBZ in the film world at the moment is the end fight in The Matrix Revolutions... Neo and Smith flying around and stuff... I was hlaf expecting a Kamehameha to fly out of one of them...

I have been saying all along that any DBZ movie should be CGI. It is the only way.

Hugh Jackman is too tall to be Vegeta.

Rumours are everywhere... but I doubt any of them are true... I just thought they were worth mentioning...

He could easily work out and his hair could be restyled.

Sylvia, I know just what ya mean with Neo vs Smith fight. I also kept expecting for one to blast a kamehameha wave. lol

.(v)_Inuyasha · 11-13-2004

I get that...i thought the same thing when watching it

and I suppose you're right Lord Sloth about getting it styled,but to me it still wouldn't look right,probably cos i'm dead set against a live-action movie.

.Osmond_Fan · 11-13-2004

Have you read the Plot? It doesn't make any sense... it's not how the story line goes, I just copied and pasted by the way...

The movie starts off on the Saiyan's home planet. Bardock sends his
son out into space along with several other Saiyan babies in their
separate pods, all heading towards a different planet. Shortly
after being launched they are all blasted into dust and only Goku's
(or Kakorot's) pod escapes and soon after crashes on Earth. He lands
near a Buddhist Temple where he is raised to be a kindhearted boy by
all of the monks. Years pass and the monks are unable to find an
outlet for Goku's inhuman strength so they send him off to train with
and old martial arts master, Master Roshi. There he meets Krillan
and they become good friends. Roshi teaches them to use energy as
a weapon (energy blasts) and all seems well until one night when Goku
sees the full moon and transforms into a giant monkey, or Oozaru.
Goku goes about his rampage until Krillan blasts his tail off and he
returns to normal.

During that same time another alien ship crashes on Earth. This time
it's Piccolo and he's carrying the Dragonballs with him. Now at this
point Piccolo is one bad mofo and his only desire is to conquer Earth.
By doing so he hunts down the strongest fighters on the planet and
kills them, but little does he know the two strongest fighters are kids.
Piccolo causes a good bit of damage that attracts the media and once
Goku and Krillin get wind of it they head off to face him against
Master Rosh’s wishes. A huge battle takes place between the three
fighters and at the end Krillan jumps in front of a blast to save
Goku's life and dies. Goku freaks out; his tail grows back,
transforms into the Oozaru again, and nearly kills Piccolo. But
Piccolo finds out his tail is his weakness and he cuts it off,
returning Goku back to normal. Goku is out cold and it looks like
Piccolo will take the win. But Roshi shows up and stops Piccolo from
killing Goku. Roshi is ready to hand Piccolo's ass to him but he lets
him go in exchange for knowledge of the Dragonballs. Once Goku awakes
Master Roshi explains to him what happened and he decides to find all
the Dragonballs to wish Krillan back to life.

Unfortunately Master Roshi lives like a hermit and has very little
money and resources to do such a thing. It would end right there but
luckily Roshi is friends with billionaire scientist and owner of
Capsule Corp., Dr. Brief. Brief decides to finance their adventure
and soon enough they, along with the daughter of Dr. Brief, Bulma,
are on their way across the world to find the Dragonballs. They are
all eventually found and the eternal dragon Shenlong is summoned to
grant their wish. Krillan is revived.

10 years pass and Goku is now married to Chichi and has a 7 year old
son, Gohan. Goku and Krillan have signed up to compete in The World
Martial Arts Tournament. Once they arrive at the tournament they see
that Bulma has signed up too. As the tournament begins and progresses
the only fighters left in the final rounds are Goku, Krillan, Bulma,
Yamcha, Tien, and a mystery fighter. As the final rounds are about to
begin five pods crash into the stadium. In them are Raditz and four
other Saiyans. Raditz tells his brother of his past and what he is.
A huge brawl between the tournament fighters and the Saiyans begin.
All of the Saiyans are killed in the fight except for Raditz who
snatches Gohan and flies off with him. Goku and the mystery fighter
chase him down into a barren desert land. The mystery fighter reveals
himself to be Piccolo. A battle between the three insures until
Piccolo finishes off Raditz but not without killing Goku in the
process. As Goku lay on the ground dying Piccolo promises him that
he will find the Dragonballs and wish him back so they can have their
rematch. Raditz transmits this to Freiza's mother ship and tells
Piccolo that his team mates are coming and will destroy Earth.
Piccolo is major pissed off and blows Raditz away (cool). Once
the rest of the gang discovers what happened, Krillan, Yamcha,
and Tien begin their training with Master Roshi and another martial
arts master, Mr. Popo. (Don't ask me how they came up with that one.)
And Goku trains with Kai (aka: King Kai) in the afterlife. Meanwhile
Piccolo takes Gohan with him in order to train him. He believes
that Gohan could be the strongest one of them all.

Back at the mother ship Vegeta and Nappa are ordered to go to Earth
and retrieve Kakorot and the Dragonballs. It takes two years for them
to reach Earth and during that time everything pretty much happens the
same way it did on the show. Everyone has grown much stronger,
especially Gohan. The Dragonballs are gathered and used to bring Goku
back to life. However it was too late because the Saiyans have already
reached Earth and Goku must run through Snake Way before he can join
his friends. The big battle starts and Yamcha, Tien, and Piccolo are
all killed by Nappa. Goku finally arrives and quickly disposes of
Nappa. Before he goes one on one with Vegeta he tells Gohan and
Krillan to leave. They do as he says and the classic battle begins.
Goku vs. Vegeta. Once Vegeta finds that Goku is too much for him to
handle he transforms into an Oozaru and nearly kills him. But Krillan
and Gohan are back at ground zero and once Gohan transforms as well
it's an all out giant monkey brawl between Gohan and Vegeta (cool again).
Vegeta rips off Gohan's tail and Krillan blasts off Vegeta's tail.
They both return to normal and Krillan gives Goku the Sensu Beans.
Goku is now back to his full strength but Gohan is badly injured.
Vegeta tricks Goku into thinking he killed his son. Goku goes mad
with rage and shows hints of something much greater than an Oozaru.
And then it might have something like to be continued or something
like that. You will just have to wait and see.

wtf?!?!

SSJBulma · 11-13-2004

messing about with the story is going to do as much damage as the actual visuals.

i don't get it

Rhaegar · 11-14-2004

I couldnt bring myself to read past "King Piccolo is another alian and crashes with the dragonballs". This is going to be awful. This isnt going to help the kind of appearance that many have about DBZ. Not to mention the story being messed with. GT crapped up the story enough but now this? And why is it being made in America? It should be made in Japan by Japanese actors and have english VO. Or better yet made in CG.

Lazlo · 11-14-2004

WHAT THE FUCK?!!?!?!?!??!?!?!?!?!

El Diablo · 11-15-2004

The Matrix is ripped off Dragon Ball. Have you seen Vegeta vs. 18? The matrix pinched that for the Freeway seen in Reloaded
