Trailer Won't Be Released Till Next Year

Emmy Interview
Japanese website Oricon Style has a new interview with Emmy Rossum.

What scene were you impressed with?

Kamehameha! I’m sure you can enjoy various action scenes like Goku vs. Piccolo.

Is it an action movie?It is an action adventure movie.

and there is a little comedy element, as with the original “Dragonball.” Although it has intense action, it is a movie everyone can enjoy.

How do you interpret the character of Bulma?

For me, Bulma is a intellectual scientist and a strong women. I knew Dragonball a little because the animation aired in the mornings on the weekend in the U.S. However, when I got this role, I wanted to know her more so I studied by seeing the anime again and reading the comic.

Did you know the popularity (of Dragonball)?

It may not be as popular as it is in Japan, but it’s popular in the U.S. too. I feel the responsibility to fans both in Japan and the U.S.

Did you enjoy action scenes?

Of course. About 90% I performed for myself without a stunt double. I learned martial arts and I rode a motor bike, although I had never ridden one before, so I had to train hard for this role.

Weren’t you injured?

I’m not injured but I made a lot of bruises. The hairstyle of Bulma is the ponytail at a high position so it became a very good cushion when I turned over or fell down (laugh).

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!

2008-11-27T21:55:00.000-08:00

We at Dragonball The Live Movie would like to wish everyone who cares to read this a Happy Thanksgiving.

Dragonball Concept art that wasn't actual concept art, made for the artist's profile.

The Poster shows promotion for a campaign stating that you could get tons of Dragonball merchandise if you complete the seven missions.

Japan, you are lucky bastards.

New Pics!

2008-11-11T22:19:00.000-08:00

So the Oozaru pic (which turned out not to be the actual thing, rather a PRODUCTION MODEL) was a bit of a setback, but seeing these put me back up in excitement! Thanks to CivilizedJames, a James Marsters fansite.

Freaking love this pic, man!

Those Piccolo pictures really bring out the character, as well as those other ones.

New Goku Picture!

2008-11-09T02:15:00.000-08:00

Thanks to DBthemovie's mysterious source, once again, we have a new Goku picture. This one is amazing.

That's our Goku!

Sorry We've Been out!

2008-11-09T02:04:00.000-08:00

We were having a bit of trouble, but anyways, tons of stuff happened that we missed. Sorry. We're back on, though.

This new pic was released by a mysterious source at Dbthemovie.com of a creature in Chatwin's Gi. Many are speculating that it was Goku in Oozaru form, but I highly doubt it. Many also say that it was just him in partial transformation. you can see the picture here.

Also, A Joon Park interview was posted from the Korean website Star News. Credit to DBthemovie.com for this translation. Check it out:

I always wanted to be a Hollywood actor, because I’m not good at the Korean language for acting in a Korean movie.

Dragonball was my third audition in Hollywood. I went to the audition, and I was called up from the director to come audition again. When I went to audition again, there were actors who were well known in the U.S., so I had to fight them. I thought “Not a chance,” because I’m “God” in Korea, but a “shit” in the U.S. (laugh)

I entered the audition wearing a hat and shorts, and as soon as the director looked at me, he said “You are Yamcha.” I still can’t believe it. I won’t appear the first 25% of the movie, but I will later on.

I met Chow Yun-Fat for the first time when we traveled by helicopter. He was indeed a kind person. He was very friendly.

It isn’t easy to make a comic into a movie. It could have became too childish. So we were trying to maintain a middle ground. There will be a lot of CG in the movie. This is a family movie, so the shooting set was a very family-like atmosphere. “Speed Racer” was a very technical set, “Dragonball” set’s atmosphere was kind of like inviting staff to your home and having a barbecue.

Details of the movie are still a secret. It will be released on March 14th next year in South Korea and Japan for the first time in the world. Toys and video games will be released in the near future. My toys too. (laugh)

New Dragonball Scene!!

2008-10-27T12:49:00.000-07:00

New Dragonball Scene.

Features Goku opening a small box containing the 4 Star Dragonball.

We're on MySpace!

2008-10-22T02:46:00.000-07:00

We just got an account on MySpace, so if you are one of those very many who visit MySpace more than any other site, (myself included) than check it out! We'll keep you updated on the latest news in the world of 20th Century Fox's upcoming hit, Dragonball!

I'd personally like to take the time to say that the spamming and flaming of the Dragonball is not appreciated, so I would like to ask that only members interested and optimistic about this movie post on this site, because I see no point in people telling others how much "this movie is going to suck" on a blog site like ours that is in full support of the movie.

The MySpace profile is here.

Back To The Set!!

Upcoming Promotion For Dragonball!

2008-10-11T18:10:00.000-07:00

Thanks To DragonballLegends! We Were Able To Get Our Hands On Some New Info!

1. When will promotion for the film Dragonball officially begin and what can we expect?

Promotion will truly begin when we launch the official trailer. Expect to see plenty of TV spots and action closer to the release. This is typical with any campaign. The fans will really feel the motion of the movie to begin by the end of the year and will be promoted at many targeted events in 2009.

2. A Junior Novel and Video Game have been confirmed. Any other possible merchandise? Maybe a TV spin off or new comic series?

Currently could not be answered, hopefully they will get back to me on this.

3. There has been a rumor going around that the sequal to this film will
begin filming in the first quarter of 2009. Any truth to this?

There is no news on a sequal just yet. We tend to wait out and see how the initial film does and if sequals can be financed.

4. How reliant is this film on visual effects? Is the majority of the money going towards CGI (such as cities, fight scenes, etc.)?

There will be a lot of amazing effects and yes.

5. How would you compare the official trailer that releases later this year to the teaser that was shown during the licensing expo?

The actual trailer will be different. The teaser shown didn’t have enough ‘energy’ and did not fully reflect the film itself. The teaser was only inteded to show certain elements for L&M purposes and to introduce characters to trade people. This piece did not show the hardcore action that the movie will contain, but the full trailer will.

DBTheMovie.com also has a source that described some upcoming new high quality promo pictures.

Goku is sitting sideways on a (non-moving) type of bike/buggy. I’m not sure if it is a three or four wheeler, but there are two wheels at the front, it looks all mean and futuristic and most importantly, it’s dusty and needs a good wash.

Goku is chomping into what looks to be a turkey drumstick. Either that or it’s a gigantic chicken drumstick. He’s wearing his grey-black jacket and dark trousers and it’s in a street setting.

In a fight scene with Goku it appears that Piccolo’s ribbed armor is strapped on around his sides. He has strange black leather gloves on and a long sword with a square, not pointed end. Around his collar is quite a bit of black braid and brocade.
In all the photos of Piccolo I’ve seen so far, he isn’t green. But in the details ones he looks like he has moss forming in his crevices, so he does have a green tinge.

Over his ribbed armor, Piccolo wears a full length hooded cloak, which is the dark browny crimson color as seen in the trailer. It has a rich texture, it looks very exotic and has rows of Sequined circles up the front panels. Extremely nice and billowy.
When Piccolo does swirly things it is revealed that he has striped panels of dark velvety pink at the back of his cloak.

There You Have It!

WELCOME
