Live Action Dragonball movie Pic

[Sabotage]

Apparently this is from a new issue of Shonen Jump in Japan. First pic of that dude as Goku. It's semi-exciting, but I gotta say... it looks pretty fucking lame to what I thought it might possibly look like.

are you sure thats not a joke? the only way i can believe that its a real picture / ad (i know the movie is being made) is if you can read japanese.

What the fuck is up with the recent trend of turning animes into live-action films?

IT'S GETTING FUCKING OLD.

[Samen]

Why is that weird old guy in a baseball cap?

Lower left corner shows anime characters compared to actors.

[Haoie]

Yeah, it's real.

It'll probably suck, as usual.

Because it's a quick way for them to snag a little extra cash before they run out of money period.

I dunno. I'm pretty sure it's authentic. Shit like the dbz movie posters are showing up in theaters so, why shouldn't stuff about it start showing up in magazines?

Because he was wearing a hat when the picture was taken.

[Zombie-Shark]

That is going to be one horrible movie

[Jesus-Owns-X]

Then an "Epic Fail" is in order.

looks interesting, but where's the giant glowing hair? You can't have a Cheesy anime based movie without the big fucking hair.

I've BEEN sick of it.

Speed Racer is one thing, but when you make live action films for Evangelion, Akira, and Dragonball, I hate humanity oh so more.

And for the record, the Dragonball link was to show just how much of a failure it will actually be.

Speed Racer wasn't as bad as people thought it would be, also it's Hollywood, they don't give a fuck about your thoughts. Money talks.

Lol I am so there, the day it comes out.

[Lagerkapo]

I, for one, think that a DBZ movie COULD be fucking epic if done right. Seriously, UBERHUMAN PEOPLE BLOWING UP THE FUCKING UNIVERSE. What's not to like?

I know money talks, but Jesus Christ, they could at least show some respect to the original artist's work, most especially for the Akira movie.

[edgewalker424]

There, I fixed it.

[NeoSoviet]

If they screw this up, I will RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGE.

The movie has the potential to be a supernova in terms of entertainment, visual effects, acting, etc... If they mess it up, it`s their loss. Such a great concept cannot be wasted, I pray for the movie to be great.

America has already fucked around with our heroes (super man, spider man, hulk, iron man, etc etc) why do they need to go the other side of the earth to fuck up japan's greatest hero Goku!

We already took down their old greatest hero in 1998, Goku was bound to be raped eventually.

Oh god this is just going to ruin the series even more, I cringed when GT started.

[Grub-Xer0]

The reason why GT is horrible is because Toriyama had nothing to do with it. He didn't create SSJ4. I hate movie industries. I would like to know how a super saiyan would look like in real life.

He was the old guy in the movie but he wasn't that old on the pic.

[acez0spad3s]

this is probobly the worst topic known to the bbs...

seriously, a topic about real life pictures of people wanting to go super saiyan. wtf

[Obvious-M]

EVERY live-action film to date has sucked balls. So why would this be different? Although the cast looks okay.

[Nikenick]

I think the movie will suck compared to the Anime

[gr33k-prty-b0y]

Here you go

I'm still undecided as to whether this will be a decent movie, or a 2 hour abortion.

I heard teasers are showing in Japan, but not really any actual footage of the movie, just the dragonballs and stuff. I just want an official site and trailer already! dragonballthemovie.com leads to the Fox Movie website, and not a specific site for the movie.

Here's a better pic:
