This movie is just a horrible train wreck. It will be so bad that every DBZ fan of any age will weep tears of fear at the sight. It will make ten day old vomit on the ground look sexy. Look away friends and do not give the hacks who are responsible you cash.

again, it's not a DBZ movie, but that being said, it seems to bear no semblance to the original DB either.

Not if you take into consideration the people who bought 20 different dubs and remasters of Dead Zone, and have no qualms about buying a 21st.

Actually, Pan is the Japanese word for bread.
yes, but Pan is also a goat-like nature god dating back to greek mythology, which christianity labelled as Satanic, turning Pan into a Satanic Icon.

To summarize:

Goku's side of the family: japanese food items
Hercule's side of the family: demons (as what WolfLordAndy said)

Pan is japanese for bread, and at the same time is a goat-like nature god dating back to greek mythology, which christianity labelled as Satanic, turning Pan into a Satanic Icon.

MY GOD!!!! Akira Toriyama is a wordplay genius!!!

Makes you wonder what else he squeezed in name wise without anyone knowing (Unless they speak Japanese that is!)

Looks like the DBZ movie is suffering from "Wanted" syndrome. The writer/director heard of DBZ/DB and said "This gives me an idea, if we remove 90% of the story we can make a really cool film. Someone get Uwe Boll on the phone..."

Okay. Then it will be a DB train wreck.

Piccolo is white.
Goku is a little prissy boy.
There will be no super saiyans.
I am by no means a DBZ fanboy, in fact I haven't even seen many of the episodes.
But by god, this is a travesty. What is the opinion of the escapist community on this movie?
I agree completely

When I first saw Goku, or maybe it was an interpretation of another character from the series, I thought that it was the asian Shia Labeuf.

But seriously, there's just no chance for this movie to be any good.

Doesn't mean it can't be enjoyable for all the wrong reasons, though...

hahaha
If atheists ever needed proof...

EDIT: I just saw a clip of the movie on the site, and I don't know anymore. I have mixed feelings about it, may not be that bad. Now this is a minute long clip that's just an interview with Dr. Light with Wily in the background making faces, but if that's the way Wily actually acts throughout the movie, it may not be that bad. He looks like a detective out of a cop drama, but the way he talks and acts is kinda funny.

I said this in the other thread
STOP BITCHING.
Dragonball was never set on our Earth, so there would be NO JAPAN.
It was set on Dragon World.
Thats the official name for the planet.
It had TALKING ANIMALS AND TRANSFORMING PIGS.

It isn't an ADAPTION, but a RETELLING.
a WHAT IF situation.
'What if it actually happened realistically'

So basically, you're saying that we should all agree and consider this would be non-canon?

Would that make it suck any less? Imagine the number of fond childhood memories this monstrosity can possibly unleash.

EDIT:
Part of Dragon Ball's charm is knowing it's not realistic. If you want a "realistic" take on Dragon Ball, make a Hollywood adaptation of Saiyuki.
