What’s Good About It?
The series is still much beloved and has great potential for film. This film will follow Dragonball Z rather than the original series, and Z is widely considered the best of the series.
What’s Bad About It?
Did you see the first one? It was like headbutting a cactus. The film was ridiculous, had terrible acting, pacing, and worst of all, the action was stupid.
Our Clever Prediction
I loved this show for years and years. The first film felt like a big slap in the face. I have very little hope for this one, but I’m still hoping that it will turn out decent. The show has such potential.


n00bx1uRp33 has proven the first valid point about his appearance and ethnicity I’ve ever seen. At first, I was pretty outraged that he was a white high school kid, but.. You’ve got a point there. Point taken.
Except the high school part. What the fuck was up with that?
totaly didn’t see n00bs1uRp33′s comment, much agreed lol
O.K LET ME GET THIS STRAIGHT GOKU IS NOT WHITE, HE IS NOT ASIAN, HE IS A SAIYAN, ANYONE COULD PLAY AS GOKU PRETTY MUCH, JUSTIN CHATWIN’S APPEARANCE WAS PERFECT BESIDES HIS ACTING<, BUT NOW THAT HE KNOWS WHAT WE FANS WANT IM SURE HE COULD DO BETTER!!!!!!NO NEED FOR DISCUSSION lol
Goku was not Japanese. Goku was Saiyan. So whether a white guy plays Goku or a Japanese guy, it wouldn’t matter, because Goku was neither. He was an extraterrestrial who happened to look like a light-skinned human with a monkey tail. So stop bitching about what ethnicity he is.
They looked like white people? You expect them to draw squinty eyes? The way Goku, Gohan, and the rest looked is how the Japanese draw Japanese people.
I guess we could put pocket protectors and calculators in their hands, maybe give them small penises.
That’s a japanese stereotype, right? Or is that Irish? Wait, I’m Irish. uh…
you have a small wang. mine’s fine.
Shut up.
Ok for everyone complaining that Goku was not asian here is one fact everyone overlooks. EVERYONE IN DRAGONBALL AND DRAGONBALL Z DID NOT LOOK ASIAN WATSOEVER. THEY LOOKED LIKE WHITE PEOPLE AND JUST BECAUSE IT IS A JAPANESE CARTOON DOES NOT MEAN YOU NEED JAPANESE CHARACTERS TO PLAY THEM. Anyways about the next movie, they better not screw the action up like in the first one, and if this is just the story of raditz im going to be very angry.
They need an asian goku and bulma with blue hair.
well since they already screwed up the first movie with justin chatwin as kakarot dont see much hope for this one. hopefully they will have a much better actor as the adult version that actually fits character and the fighting sequences wont be so cheesy and a good punch to the face.
they did make dragonball the movie and dragonball evolution is dragonball 2 so this one coming out in 2011 will be dragonball z the movie if they are going to have 2 saiyans in i seen the show
it is not dragonball 2 it is dragonballz
