Ugh. I can't believe she's singing the theme song for this garbage...at least it'll get a lot of attention since it's being released in so many places, and I'm sure she'll get a lot of media coverage in Japan for it.

Could someone please close this topic as it's getting pointless? ~ it seems people are more into bashing the movie rather than being happy that Ayu is releasing a new song.

I got the gist of this forum and I second it. I don't like the idea of the movie and I'm not even a big fan of the series. I figure there will be another single or two before her next album, which will give her the opportunity to revamp some more of her older songs + lets not forget about those 4 jacket covers _| ̄|O

someone said before and I'm not sure whom but I figure any viewer who isn't familiar to J-Pop won't care less about the song or the person who sang it. but I'm sure it'll be a generally positive response from her fan-base and the fans of the movie.

as well all know Ayumi writes her own lyrics so I'm a little disappointed to see that this song is about her impression of the film's protagonist after reading the screenplay. I hope this song won't be released as the A-side to her next single. in fact I hope it won't be on her next album. then again, I'm sure its something we'll all be able to relate to on some degree. alterna anyone?

verdict: I think I'll support Ayumi by buying the single instead of paying $15, waiting 2 hours for the end roll.

FYI, the trailer that was leaked wasn't supposed to be. At first I watched it and obv thought "the ****?" like everyone else, but it wasn't meant to be seen by the public obv so yeah.

eww.


goku is supposed to be buff

what is this skinny crap

i hate the direction this film is headed. Whilst the transformers film took heaps of liberties, at least it looked decent and realistic. This looks so surreal and well, silly, it's kinda saddening that ayu is taking apart of this film.

looks like that speed racer movie all over again. bad reviews to be expected.

If you took the "Dragon Ball" title away and changed a few elements, I think that it'd be a pretty good stand alone kung fu flick.. but the application of DB's world to live action is just.. woaaaah.

Then again, it can't be as bad as the one made like 10+ years ago in Asia.

After seeing the new trailer i don't think the film looks bad at all. Seems like there going to do with Dragonball what they did with the resident evil movies. Stay semi-true to the lore while creating there own story elements. Like instead of mai, and pilaf having the flying fortress it's Piccolo, and Mai.

^that's what I think as well.

I think the film will live up to be, exactly what it is, and only can be.

What's the worse it could be? Can't be worse than the Mummy 3...or Twilight or something...

This movie needs to be extremely lucky if it wants to make anything near those 2 movies.

Is Dragon Ball even popular among kids anymore? It seems like the movie is 5 years too late. Or am I mixing it up with Pokemon... I can't keep track of these things.

Well the Mummy 3 was pretty bad. Kinda hard to top it. Can't say anything about Twilight since I'm avoiding it. I think Dragonball is still popular around teens and adults. It's a classic for mangas. My brother still watches Dragonball after school even though he's been watching it since he was a kid.

Also I've actually taken a look at the posters and stuff and they don't seem that bad as I imagined them to be. This might actually be quite good.

I don't think BLEACH, Naruto or any popular Shonen Manga would even exist if Dragonball wasn't created.

Nah, it doesn't seem like it's that famous anymore. It's gone downhill.
