New trailers and movie stills showing extended cuts of Dragon Ball Evolution have just been released. The newly revealed scenes show much more of how the film intends to handle fight sequences and finally reveal Goku’s trademark fighting uniform.
Trailer #1: Chi Chi versus Chi Chi
Trailer #2: Goku meets Master Roshi
New stills from the movie:
Dragonball Evolution is set for an April 9th North American release.
Trailers via TrailerAddict, stills via DBtheMovie.
By showing more of the film upfront, it is hoped that the derision and scorn already heaped upon this film can somewhat be lessened. It is not clear whether this strategy will succeed.

So many closed minded people...
If you're not going to watch it, don't. And don't go whining and moaning about it.
And exactly why does Goku need to be asian? Or Japanese specifically. I don't see there needing him to be asian. I've never thought of Goku being asian, ever.
because goku was based off the japanese folklore of son goku.
of course he'd be fucking asian.
This movie was a pill of shit, Im glad I didnt see it in theaters.
That's because you're the closed minded one.
Holy shit, Master Roshi is badassssssss
At least the hand-2-hand fighting seems alright...
But how will the overall Ki effects end up though? :S
I'm going to enjoy pirating this.
se ve que va a estar buena, al fin que goku es demasiado chistoso en la serie animada, porque no tendria que ser asi en la pelicula.
shut up shut up shut up
translate.google.com
"is gonna be good, so that andalusia goku is too funny in the animated series, because that would be like in the film."
the translator is broken ='(
Its gonna be good, cos Goku is too funny in the animated serie, why he wouldnt be like this in the movie?
btw Andalucia is in Spain.

Y noooo, la pelicula va a ser un asco, mas vale no verla en el cine y gastar por ver una porqueria, mejor la bajare.
Short translation: the movie will suck big time!
Hey, it's actually quite good, after all.
I mean, forget it's called Dragon Ball and consider that's just some action movie, and it's enjoyable.
Naw still looks like a pile of crap with sprinkles on it, to try and make it look better.
Even as a action/kung fu style movie it is crap.
I lolified this trailer XD
What I'd like to know is who's on Roshi's shirt?
This looks worse than the Mortal Kombat and street fighter movies, combined.
Goku is human not a sayan, yeah makes perfect fucking sense.
Lol at goku being hurt by a gun.
If I were Goku, I would be fuckin' ashamed to get some Matrix effect just because I crossed some wall of fire... :-(
Again... Piccolo = Lord Voldemort + Nosferatus
this was new like a year ago and even then everyone knew it would be utter shit. the story gets raped in the opening credits.
Jeses ammal hie is 'n hoop dose!
Chi Chi got kicked in the tits.
I would have done a Zidane.
Wooo... Is Goku really that flabby?
Eh... its looks a step above Chun Li and a step below Watchmen.
In all honesty this would probably be a kick ass action movie if it wasn't dbz. Change the names of the charecters, the title and the dragonballs, since they're origin in the movie is completely different and tell me that this wouldn't be a great action movie.
Just like Final Fantasy the spirits within. that was a good looking movie with a decent story, but it's just NOT final fantasy
It wouldn't be a great action movie.
The movie itself looks like it would have been okay if it wasn't a bastardization of Dragonball. None of the characters are recognizable, or act anything like the actual characters. If I wasn't specifically told it was a Dragonball movie, and if the names were changed, I would not even be able to tell it was meant to be an adaptation. That is not a good sign.
When is Hollywood going to learn that when you adapt something, the only people that will come because of the name are the people that were originally fans, nearly all of which will be pissed off that everything they loved was changed.
Hollywood, please, just cut your losses. Change the name to something else, and release it that way. I'd actually go see it that way, but as it stands I won't watch it on principle, just like the Chun Li movie. Just call it something else, and all of this drama will stop, and you might actually make some money off of this.
he says sory after he blows the girl away LOL
Am I the only one realising that this looks like an ordinary gay LA fighting movie with the same moves as always and characters not reminding of dragon ball at all?
1 that street fighter movie never happen...! -_-
2 cheap cinema go cheaper download it
Hey looks not bad. It deserves a chance
The fight scenes are kinda cool...
That's Hollywood's cheap trick to make their movies "good", much like GONZO killing R+V with massive fanservice and no storyline at all.
It looks worse than I expected.
Now matter how you look at it, the result is an C-class american action movie. The fight scene is especially lame.
It is just like Jackie Chan said once. No matter which actors plays in, an american action movie looks american, a chinese one looks chinese.
With Sayuki (yes I mean the manga and anime adaptation) this is the worse adaptation from the journey to the west. (Not to mention an insult to Dragon Ball)
I better keep waiting for the next volume of the Journey to the west written and drawn by Chen Weidong and Peng Chao.
M.
There was not nearly enough of Roshi asking to see Bulma's panties in that meeting.
They made a movie which is so bad that you HAVE to watch it. We all fell for their marketing technique.
Haha, that's true for me!
After this It's even harder to accept this as an part of the Dragon Ball series. But I often has a hard time accepting dubs so It ain't that surprising after all.
Will give it a chance to prove itself though.
haha im looking forward for this movie :D
i'm not a fan of DBZ, not in primary school, not in high school, not in college, not now, but i know a lame, hackjob, try-to-milk-the-cash-cow-one-more-time movie when i see one. BUT, i am going to see this movie with friends (rabid fans no less) just for the lulz.
this is dragon ball, not DBZ, young weaboo.
lol, oopsy, told u i'm not a fan.
picolo doesnt look green
first it was faith stay knight
then its suzumiya hahiru
now dragon's ball erolution
so is this some kind of dragonball wannabe bunch of cosplayers that don't even resemble the characters.
Dragonball Movie + Quality = IT DOESN'T COMPUTE
"Error:Can't divide by Zero."
Microsoft Calculator on DB Movie.
If you know how to use it, it can work out pretty well.
Lelouch divided by Zero = End of Geass
Touché.
haha LOL
This doesn't change my opinion on this will be a crash and burn project.
ugh long as they dont follow DBZ trend of draging things out forever it might not fail.. so badly
It would fail much less if they did something even remotely close to even the biggest failuers in DBZ
But this is a Dragonball movie, if they movie into DBZ (which seems likely) it would be a ridiculous movie (I meant to type move but movie works)
I would like to see how they try and make someone look like Freeza and the Ginyu Force, but only for lols
Shouldn't they have used Japanese actors??? What's with the Americanization of characters? This brings me back to that Street Fighters movie way, way back.
Whatever the case, my friend, who is a HUGE dragonball fan, says that this is nothing like the original story.
Even if it is supposed to be a new take, I do believe they massacred the franchise...
Did you complain when you watched DBZ about the fact it wasn't loyal to Journey to the West, the Chinese source material?
DBZ was a fresh thing as far as I was concerned, so your point is failing
No, you know why? DBZ isn't shit, this is
Dragon Ball was a PARODY of Journey to the West. Unless Hollywood slaps the tagline "olololol this is a parody of Toriyama's greatest work to piss off all Dragon Ball fans". Your point is pretty much invalid. Also, DBZ's story is original. Unlike Dragon Ball, if you even knew, Goku stopped using the "magical extending rod" and the "golden cloud"
As a huge Dragonball fan myself I can tell you that this whole film is pretty much the cake from Portal (I shouldn't have to explain that)
It's all different, I mean Goku couldn't even use energy until he met Roshi >_>
and Bulma (that is Bulma he hit right?) would have been destroyed by that attack
Begs the question though, if Bulma was fine after it why did he think it'd stop Roshi
Oh one more thing, anyone reminded of Bulletproof Monk here?
I'll watch this as a general movie, but I'd have to slit my own throat if I watched this as a Dragonball movie
I must agree...it seems like an ok movie now...but it must not ever be taken seriously as a Dragonball movie. Or taken very seriously at all.
Yeah, I mean come on... the first time Goku used the Kamehameha wave he destroyed a car. I think Bulma would pretty much be toast compared to that.
"This brings me back to that Street Fighters movie way, way back."
Not just that old crap.. I don't think we need to mention about the latest American version of Street Fighter movie where Chun Li isn't even a Chinese girl in an innovated blue Cheongsam.
