Japanese Dragonball Movie Trailer Looks Ridiculous
Posted on Wednesday, December 10th, 2008 by Peter Sciretta
The Japanese movie trailer for Fox’s big screen live-action adaptation of Dragonball has hit the interwebs. Remember how cool that new Terminator Salvation trailer was? Well this is quite the opposite. Goofy looking characters, cliched action sequences and laughable dialogue. But honestly, what did you expect? Leave your most amusing thoughts in the comments below!
This Dragonball movie trailer was shot on the showfloor at the Brand Licensing Europe Expo in London. Normally we wouldn’t run such crappy footage, but there are still a lot of rabid Dragonball fans out there that are not yet convinced that Fox ruined their precious big screen adaptation. For those of you who don’t want to sit through the Cloverfield-like shaky cam, I’m sure the official version will show up online soon enough.
Dragonball Poster and Movie Trailer Stills Revealed
Posted on Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008 by Peter Sciretta
DBthemovie has gotten their hands on a new Dragonball character poster featuring Emmy Rossum as Bulma (seen above). Head on over to Nerdorama to see exclusive screen captures from the official movie trailer.
Dragonball hits theaters on April 10th 2009.
ComingSoon is reporting that 20th Century Fox will released the first trailer for the big screen adaptation of Dragonball attached to Max Payne, on October 17th. Meanwhile, rumors that Fox isn’t happy with the final film have been debunked on a variety of different websites. In fact, SuperheroFlix’s sources claim that “everyone involved seems to think they have a hit on their hands” and that the studio has already been talking about sequel possibilities. While I never expected Fox to cancel the release of the film (how do these rumors get started anyways?) I’m not sure if I believe that the executives are jumping for joy over the results.
DBthemovie has four new high resolution photos from the live action big screen adaptation of Dragonball. Three more after the jump.
A new Japanese poster for Dragonball has shown up online at DBthemovie.com. I’m sure Fox will launch some new marketing materials later this week at Comic Con.
New Posters: RockNRolla, Dragonball, The Day the Earth Stood Still
Posted on Tuesday, June 24th, 2008 by Peter Sciretta
Film1.nl has the first poster for the remake of The Day the Earth Stood Still starring Keanu Reeves. Even though we’ve heard virtually nothing about this project since the first casting announcements, Fox is still planning on releasing the film on December 12th 2008.
/Film reader Christopher M sent over this poster for Guy Ritchie’s RockNRolla.
DBthemovie has gotten their hands on new scans from Roadshow Magazine showing the first official look at the cast of Dragonball. I’ve cropped and cleaned up some of the photos for better presentation.

First Look: Justin Chatwin as Goku in Dragonball
Posted on Saturday, May 10th, 2008 by Peter Sciretta
DBlive has posted what appears to be the first possibly official photo of Justin Chatwin as Goku from 20th Century Fox’s upcoming DragonBall live-action movie. The scan was said to be taken from the Japanese magazine Shonen Jump #24. Updated with a higher quality image. As always, click to enlarge.

Photo Removed at Request from Fox
Update: /Film reader Jim S sent me the above photo of the American version of the teaser poster. So it appears it is real after all.
The photo below has begun to circulate the message boards, claiming to be the Japanese poster for 20th Century Fox’s upcoming live action big screen adaptation of Dragonball. But who knows, it could be an elaborate fan creation. I know there is enough of a fanbase looking forward to this movie, so I thought I’d share it.
Photo Removed at Request from Fox
According to dbthemovie, the poster translates into:
“Legend becomes reality
March 2009
Dragonball

Dragonball hits theaters in the states on April 8th 2009.
Removed at the Request of Fox
JoBlo was able to uncover some photos from Fox’s big screen adaptation of Dragonball. I’m not sure if these are official or not, and if not, they might not be up for long (hey, it’s Fox after all). So check out some of the better photos below while you have the chance, and tell me what you think in the comments. It seems like a lot of fans are expressing disappointment on the various message boards, but that’s almost always the case with a big screen adaptation.
Discuss: What are your thoughts on the new Dragonball photos?
