The Official Goku/Justin Chatwin Thread

[TLH]

Early Dragonball and even the Raditz saga (if you can call it a saga), Goku's arms weren't big at all. They were pretty much as you see Chatwin's.

 

[Avangarde]

Well it could just be put down to lazy animation, I mean it would be pretty hard to be that strong and not have any muscle bulk.

 

[MagicPrime]

That was just the conidtion Goku was in at the time. He really didn't "bulk" up till after training with King Kai and even more so in the gravity ship. The same thing with Vegeta really. He was crazy bulky muscle till much later in the series.

 

[DorkyFresh]

excuses, excuses, excuses. i've already said that Goku doesn't have to be huge...he just has to have a decent body. Chatwin is just plain skinny and unmuscular. look at the last page and see Daniel Radcliff (Harry Potter). he at least has some definition and a decent body. there's no excuse for Chatwin to be in the condition he is in if he's supposed to be the world's best martial artist. saying that he wasn't bulky until later in the series is just an excuse because he doesn't have to be bulky to have a decent body.

I thought their might came from their Chi/Ki not their muscle mass?

I wouldn't mind Chatwin bulking up Hugh Jackman style as the series goes on though, he needs to show some sort of improvement.

A bit of both really, they train mind, body, and soul so it's only natural that Goku should atleast be toned.

I care more for his fights dont look fake, i saw a video when Justin double is great, and about Goku young not be muscular, is just The art Style, Doing a chapter every week make Toriyama change his style, and the drawings change a lot from DB and Early DBZ to the Freeza, Cell and Buu saga.

yeah...as much as an important role chi/ki plays in martial arts, no one can use it ALL the time. if you study martial arts for at least a year you're bound to have built some muscle even if it doesn't fully show.

i'm not concerned about the fights looking fake so much as i am about Justin's stunt double being significantly bigger than Justin himself is. i know that every time his stunt double appears on screen it won't be Justin.

I said fake like for example CG fake, I mean Matt Damon look like he did his stunt in Bourne, the fight he did was good, but probably his double participate too, but it looks like Damon did the whole fight, so that is what i want, see the fights like Justin is the one who is fighting, and not CG or stunt double.

The double of Goku is skinny too, but he is good

Zenkai Power!

 

[Star]

yeah he actually has muscles though

 

[DorkyFresh]

there's a difference between slim and skinny. Justin's double is slim, Justin HIMSELF is skinny.

People.. just...don't..get it.



lol

People.. just...don't..get it.



lol

Tell me about it :P

Anyway, we really need a teaser...

 

[MoPlaYa]

Chatwin`s body is fine for young Goku...I wish people would quit worrying about that

 

[Star]

Oh whatever, movie magic will correct alllllll his woes.

 

[MoPlaYa]

Mosty likely

 

[DorkyFresh]

Chatwin`s body is fine for young Goku...

hmmm...i'm gonna say no. young though Goku's supposed to be young in this movie, it doesn't mean he has to be unfit and scrawny. Goku, even when drawn with LESS muscle, was never drawn as SKINNY as Chatwin.

I wish people would quit worrying about that

i, for one, am not worried about it. i was worried before we saw the recent pictures of Chatwin, because i was hoping that he was going to pull a Ben Foster. however, we know that he hasn't put on much muscle so there's no reason for me to worry anymore. my disappointment has taken the place of my worries.

You guys are nit picking to much.

Get it that a Movie will not look like the cartoon, or the manga. You think he needs a six pack to be Kakarot? No Kakarot is an Alien, if you've forgotten and is inherantly stronger on earth just like Superman.

Justin Chatwin is a good enough actor. Stop worrying about his physique, you guys sound like a bunch of girls complaining over him in Teenmagazines.

Just let the director tell a story. Movies are RE-Tellings, this means it doesnt have to look like the cartoon, and in my opinion getting Chatwin to play Goku is no different than getting Tobey double chin maguire to be spider-man...or if you didn't notice in Spidey 3. Being Super and Looking ripped to **** have nothing to do with each other.

Gokus character has strength of Will, determination, and a lawful good heart. He is a Hero, and as weve seen through many tales and films you dont need to look like a hero to be a hero.

I am glad he isnt all roided up. It grounds the film in reality, and gives us humans something to associate with. Cartoons have styles because they must be animated, however Humans do not look like cartoons, so just stop worrying about how buff he is going to be, jesus christ give the guy a chance.


Why don't you whiners go get ripped up to **** like Goku and convince them that you should be Goku, seeing how you all seem to be experts at making films, personal training, the DB Universe and gayly analyzing Justin Chatwins body....


GO outside! Go to Work!

 

[Star]

HAHAHAH 'Tobey Double Chin Maguire'

Or this... http://blog.syracuse.com/family/2007/09/0926 karate kid.jpg

She's been studying martial arts since she was 4 and now she's 7 and has her black belt! You're so right martial arts does make you muscular.

HAHA that's what stunt doubles are for...DUH!

it's called discussion. just because you don't like us discussing Chatwin's lack of physique doesn't mean you can tell us what to do or how to think. mocking us just makes you look like an ass...

 

[Zeroefalling]

i never thought i'd see the day when Goku...

...has a worse body than Harry Potter.

this really saddens me. it makes me wonder who else tried out for the role. i seriously want to know James Wong's reasons for casting Chatwin. i want an interview!

I'm glad to see you scoured Teenidols.com for shirtless pics of boys...


Having defined vascularity and a low body fat have nothing to do with being strong. Harry Potter is a skinny ass kid. That is why you can see his veins and abdominals. Also, Chatwin, Im assuming hasnt taken any MEDIA READY pics AS Goku at all. UNlike harry potter there, who worked out, dieted and had the photographer and digital artists on hand to give him direction and light the scene correctly so they could take that shot.


I think you have a crush on Harry Potter and Justin Chatwin.

 

[MoPlaYa]

Chatwin`s Chest looks alot bigger then the kid who plays Harry Potter
