Foxmovies.com Lists Dragonball Release Date
According to Foxmovies.com, Dragonball will be released on 04/08/09, which is April 8th 2009. I don’t know what the point in moving it even further is, so I’ll remain unconvinced. They did not provide any additional information on the movie.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
March 27th, 2008 at 2:44 am
Im kinda gettin mad of all this changing of the dates. I want them to stick with one and nothing else!
March 27th, 2008 at 2:48 am
I like how they can’t even spell it right. It’s Dragon Ball, not Dragonball.
March 27th, 2008 at 2:55 am
No J, Its Dragonball not Dragon ball. Just look at DBZ’s Title: DragonBall Z.
March 27th, 2008 at 2:57 am
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!! I was right. That’s a alwsome time to put it out…. It’s plenty of time to start the fan base. Hey Adam I was right wasn’t I? Know one believed me, but I was right.
March 27th, 2008 at 3:01 am
J,
I see it as “Dragonball”, not “Dragon Ball”
Unless its spelled “DragonBall”, then i guess u can say its the same Dragon Ball.. XDD
Yea anyhow Im not convinced with this date, i mean gimme a teaser or somethin that will prove it. FOX is bein really stingy about this. They need to get the word out already, otherwise only the ppl that visit this site will go see the movie when it comes out due to their lack of “gettin the word out” lol
March 27th, 2008 at 3:01 am
Corey,
You were not right. You thought it was April 3rd.
March 27th, 2008 at 3:03 am
RawMeatCowboy. Go to dragonball.com the script thing at the top of the browser says “The Official Dragon Ball Website”. I guess it’s hard to tell because the letters in the logo are squished together.
March 27th, 2008 at 3:06 am
I wonder why they could be hiding this movie for so long? They are done filming yet not one official image. Heck even GI Joe has a hi-res picture of Snake Eyes and they’re not even done filming.
March 27th, 2008 at 3:10 am
I agree we need another pic or something!! They can’t expect us to get off from one picture they removed. Come on Fox give us something to get excited about! At least tell us if Oozaru is going to be in the movie.
lol HEy that’s no fare Adam!!!!
I never said that! I said April 2009.
March 27th, 2008 at 3:13 am
Sooo…has anybody seen the trailer for Dragon Ball Online? It looks cool but you can’t be a saiyan (not even part saiyan?). You can only be a Majin, human, or namek. At least you can fly (supposedly).
March 27th, 2008 at 3:39 am
I am one of the biggest fans of DBZ there is owning most of the merchandise that is available in the US, some from Japan, and every single episode ever created. I even have the OVA’s from the Phillipines.
With that said, I think Fox is raping the source material and creating a horrible adaptation of DragonBall. The casting director should be shot on site, the brilliant writer who felt it was necessary to turn Krillin into Teto (a brand new and unrelated character) should be hung in the streets of Durango, and Akira Toriyama should send the Yakuza after Chow and Wong. This is an absolute tragedy. Americanizing one of the most amazing manga series ever created is pure blasphemy.
Damn you Fox!! Damn you to hell!!
March 27th, 2008 at 3:40 am
Finally, this is what I wanted to hear. Not that it came out later, but the fact Fox actually put something official about the movie on their website. Now think, just a few days ago we got an official picture of Teto/Weaver and Emi, and then a couple days later an official picture of a set; and now this. I don’t know what you guys think but I got a feeling were getting something big real soon….I just REALLY hope it’s a trailer, but a poster would be great as well.
March 27th, 2008 at 3:44 am
Hey Corey, i thought you were going to stop talking about the Oozaru thing? Hmm, what’s with the Oozaru man?
March 27th, 2008 at 3:45 am
j you havent watched the db online trailer if your saying this!!!!-the trailer and gameplay is filled with saiyans ans vegeta and gokus ancestors!!!!!!-what you talkin’ bout willis!!!!!
—–the main question is it coming to 360 ever in usa?!!!!-i would rather buy that than burst!!!-you guys agree?-hows dragon ball gonna compete with wolverine,gi joe etc…………-box office money wise?every man up to late 30’s loves gi joe!!!!!!-they are being pretty dumb!-yep whats up with gi joe pics and no db!!!!!
March 27th, 2008 at 3:47 am
Could someone plzzzzzz tell steve to calm down… I cant stand it when ppl hate on a movie that has NOT even been released yet T.T
March 27th, 2008 at 3:59 am
Robert, I did see the trailer. It was stated in articles about the game you can’t be a Saiyan. There are saiyans (Raditz, Vegeta, Goku, Trunks) they’re not playable though. Oh and I completely agree with you Steve, you have every right to voice your opinion as much as anyone who supports it here.
I bet if they make a sequel Vegeta will be played by Chris Crocker and Nappa will be played by Zac Efron.
March 27th, 2008 at 4:55 am
i agree with zanny, you cant hate a movie that you havent seen, at least wait till you see a trailer to start hating it
, and even if it does suck, which im sure it wont, i think its better to have this than nothing at all
anyway, i think its gonna rock and you, steve, and probably most of the people that say that hate it are still going to watch it
March 27th, 2008 at 5:15 am
what i hope we get to see soon if not a trailer is a picture of piccolo… they better have pulled off his look… i’d also like to see if chatwin has beefed up any to fit his role… if he hasn’t he better put on a little weight for the sequel!
March 27th, 2008 at 5:19 am
If it comes on HBO or Cinemax I might consider watching it, but no, not in theaters. I said I wouldn’t get Tenkaichi 3 and I didn’t. I’m saying I’m not watching this movie and I’m not because I don’t want the sequel to be like this one, which it will be.
March 27th, 2008 at 5:32 am
J,
You dont KNOW the sequel will be like the first one.. Hell the first one might be the best of the 3, who knows… so yea, im not tryin to start a fight or anythin like that, im just tryin to say dun judge a book by its freakin cover.
March 27th, 2008 at 5:47 am
You actually think that the photos of Chatwin, list of characters, and storyline described by the director himself aren’t enough for me to not want to see this poor excuse of a DragonBall film?? I can’t believe that anyone who calls themselves a true DBZ fan would be willing to accept Chatwin as Goku. Someone on CountingDown.com put it perfectly when they said he is a much better fit for Android 17 or future Trunks. If you want to see a perfect fit for Goku, go to here…. http://www.theinfamousemijayne.blogspot.com
March 27th, 2008 at 5:58 am
Steve,
No.. no no no NO, that man can never be Goku.. EVER.
What ive heard or read about this movie, I must admit that I am not too disappointed about it.. other than the fact that Krillin might not be in it.. actually u know wat, screw Krillin, Im just glad that we are finally gettin a real Live Action DragonBall Movie. It might not be EXACTLY like the freakin anime, but i dun care, thats just the way life is, it never stays the same.
So if ur a “true” dragonball fan, fine thats great, go watch the anime or read the manga. But this is a site for updates about the movie, for ppl that are wanna find out wats goin on and are interested in actually goin to see the movie when it comes out, not for haters, like urself.
March 27th, 2008 at 6:17 am
You’re not going to sit there and tell me you think a skinny white American with no martial arts experience and VERY limited acting is a btter fit than someone who looks damn near exactly like Goku and was the runner up to the world champion at a martial arts competition, are you??? Unbelievable.
Mindless drones. This is why Hollywood continues to churn out crap instead of quality. Mindless drones who refuse to stand up and demand something better for their money. I’m not just talking about DragonBall, but movies in general. If you continue to sit back and pay for whatever Hollywood throws at you, they’ll continue to laugh at you all the way to the bank.
March 27th, 2008 at 6:20 am
Steve,
I hope you didn’t call me a mindless drone…
You’re not fooling anyone with this “I won’t watch this movie” crap. If you care enough to post a comment, you care enough to see it.
March 27th, 2008 at 6:28 am
Justin Chatwin might not look like Goku, but who this world does? Not even that guy ur talkin about looks like him, the only thing he would have in common with Goku is that he is a martial artist.. and thats it.
Do u ever think about the way he will act as the character he is playin???
Lemme guess.. NO
Its all about LOOKS. Hes doesnt look buff enough, he’s not asian, his hair is not the same, i mean seriously, its ridiculous how some ppl come up with the these things and hate on it, which most lilely wont even matter in the movie.
If the ppl workin on the movie get a good story together, even if some things have to be changed, fine by me. Its all about a good story, effects, music and most important ACTING. If the acting is horrible, then wat good would it do for the movie. Most of these asians u guyz wouldve liked to play as Goku cant act for shit and who in the hell would want that.
March 27th, 2008 at 7:11 am
Zanny, if that’s the case, Chatwin better be a darn good actor. I saw him in WotW and his performance was…less than stellar in my opinion. They need some good character-actors, I don’t care how they look because if it were all CGI it wouldn’t make a bit of difference guys, the balls are inert.
March 27th, 2008 at 7:11 am
Chatwin is Canadian
March 27th, 2008 at 7:14 am
VEX, to anwere your question about whether or not Chatwin beefed up. No. There are some pictures of him from around the end of filming and he looked the same to me. I think when they said he was ‘training’ with 87eleven or whatever the studio is called, I’m 99% sure they meant he was just training for the choreography (practicing fight scenes it sounds like)
March 27th, 2008 at 7:27 am
Well Justin Chatwin has to (obligation) build some muscle for the Sequel. I have no problem with Chatwin being lean for this film seeing as Goku was also not muscular in “Dragonball” but when the Saiyan’s arrive Goku is pretty buff. Hopefully Chatwin is working out as we speak to prepare for the sequels.
March 27th, 2008 at 8:36 am
Are we back to this argument AGAIN!?! People, are you lost because this is not the Internet Movie Database; on this site we don’t talk about who should play who based on their race or nationality…. Be honest; and not at all racist, but can most asian/japanese actors with a martial arts background act? or can speak fluent english? Hell NO, you could barely understand what Jet Li was saying in War, do you see my point. I really don’t care what you believe, just don’t bring any racism into this site.
March 27th, 2008 at 3:12 pm
I enjoy coming to Dbthemovie.com, because everyone here wants to see the movie. This is one of the best Db sites out there. We all may disagree on alot of things, but we don’t attack the movie. I should of known you was one of them hatters from countingdown Steve. Why you talking about race man?? It shouldn’t matter if Goku is white or asian, because he is an alien. He is from the planet Vegeta not from earth, and if you want my opinion he looks like he could be both. Chatwin looks like he could be the best person to play Goku, and wether you like it or not, he’s going to be Goku. I hope you calm down, because your out of control man. Your not only attacking the movie, but your attacking are moderator Adam. Adam is not a “mindless drone”!! Whatever that means…. If you don’t want the movie to come out then go see a different movie. Im sure “Sex in the city” will be out soon.
March 27th, 2008 at 4:15 pm
Steve, it is pointless trying to rationalize with rocks. I just feel sorry for these poor souls.
March 27th, 2008 at 6:06 pm
Well J, I guess it could be both. Who knows maybe we should Ask Toriyama-san.
March 27th, 2008 at 7:29 pm
What do you mean you dont get why it got pushed to the 8th. Hello, thats Easter Break!! More people are bound to see it since they dont have school. I like how theyre thinking. Now the sequel is a sure thing. I hope they do it like Potter movies where they go every year with one. It makes the wait to see fusion alot more less.
March 27th, 2008 at 11:39 pm
I am getting tired of the dates being changed as well..stick to one freaking date and dont change it…but April 2009 come on that’s too long..yes it is a lot of time to make it better but im sure they don’t need that much time…Joon Park said it’s comin out late this year or early next year so i believe him since he’s in the movie…it just better not be April 2009..considering they are already talking about the sequel being shot in 2009…if they keep delaying these movies we’ll all be 30 before the series is done and no one will care anymore….so choose a date and stick with it..stop channging it!..and for god sakes release some pictures or a teaser already i can’t take the suspense anymore!
March 27th, 2008 at 11:51 pm
I totally agree with Frankfurter
March 28th, 2008 at 10:22 pm
I think its August the 4th not april 8th!
March 28th, 2008 at 10:23 pm
scratch that
