Dragon Ball Z Movie!!


DISCLAIMER: Boots had this post, and this pic, before me. Go read the Nerd Word if you haven't already.


A Dragon Ball Z movie is finally coming out! I've been hearing rumors since, like, third grade, but it's never come to anything...until now! This is the official movie poster, stolen off of the Nerd Word.

Now, the question is what this movie's going to be about. Is it going to be about Dragon Ball, when Goku's a kid, or Dragon Ball Z, when he's an adult?

And who's eye is that? It looks to me a lot like a scouter, although there's definitely an eyebrow, so it can't be Frieza or one of his minions. My guess? Vegeta or Raditz.

From that, I can assume that the movie will cover the Saiyan Saga, although it will probably go into the Frieza/Planet Namek saga since there wasn't a big emphasis on finding the Dragon Balls during the Saiyan Saga.

The next question is how they're going to portray the alien characters like Piccolo or Frieza. Will they use computer animation or hokey costumes? I hope they use CGI, and that seems to be the only realistic option. Costumes don't cut it anymore.

Finally, how would they portray the high-speed fighting and energy attacks that the series is all about?

My hopes for this movie are extremely high, but only time will tell to see if it delivers...

Actually, if you google "James Marsters/Piccolo" on images, there is a picture.
