No offense to Krillin, I mean I love the guy but he's a useless character.

His only purpose, in the entire series, was to die to drive Goku over the edge to create the legendary Supersaiyan. Thats it. This isnt reason enough to crowd the movie with him as another useless character.

Again, I love Krillin, but in the movie he will only be a waste of camera time. Goku will go Supersaiyan through other means, and losing Krillin to give Goku (some other important character that will actually move the plot forward) more time on camera, is deffinitly worth the sacrifice of changing that one significant scene in Dragonball.

I mean seriously, every time Krillin has a scene - Plot stalls. Every time. In the manga this is acceptable to draw out more pages and lengthen the plot, and the tv series thats even more required to draw out episodes.

In the movie? Krillin will kill Dragonball by making reviewers say
"Too many characters that dont add to the plot"

I'd hardly call Krillin useless. He was the first character that was killed in the Piccolo saga, which sends Goku on a mission to avenge him and bring him back to life.

Krillin's also one of the stronger character's for awhile, he put up a decent fight against Piccolo Jr. and he took out several of Vegeta's saibamen on his own. He was able to hold out against Nappa and even came close to defeating him with his destructo-disc. Let's not forget that he threw Goku's spirit bomb and had the opportunity to kill Vegeta, it was because of his friendship with Goku that he was spared. And there's no way Gohan would have survived on Namek alone, he was mostly following Krillin's lead.

Yamcha on the other hand..I don't think he's had a single victory since he appeared in the series. He is just a character for Bulma to cry over. When Bulma has Vegeta's son he is completely useless.
 
Yeah I agree Yamcha is kinda useless after the saiyan saga...I hope they make him alittle bit more bad ass in future movies...I think Krillin is one of the more important non saiyan characters in DB/DBZ and I would love to him him and Goku`s training and friendship in the movies
 
absolutely! he would kick goku's ass in this movie
 
I dont care what race Krillin would be as long as he is bald, shorter than Goku and can pull off a good friendship with Goku

True but if you included him in the first movie his only useful purpose would be dieing to start goku`s quests to defeat piccolo. So he would barely been in the movie anyway. Goku`s grandfather being killled in krillin`s place makes more sense because it is a more personal attack on goku. An actual family member rather than a friend.

Yamcha tunred up first and had a big role in the first hunt for the dragonballs so his inclusion is more understandable.
 
Well it looks like Krillin has a shot of maybe being in this movie!!
 
I think I would have rather had Krillin taken out of the film all together then him to be just some guy.
 
I saw that picture. That guy does not resemble Krillin at all. It baffles me that some of you would accept that as Krillin. Give me a break. Please think about that for a second.
 
People are just desperate to believe crap that isn't there.

People constantly believed Gwen Stacy was in Spider-man 2.
 
Ok if it aint Krillin then who is it? Some random buzz haired short asian guy kicking someone in the face?
 
I SO wanted Krillin to be in the movie... how depressing... :csad:
