I posted this theory a couple days ago but it seems like the discussion about whether or not what we saw at the Expo's is what we are going to see during the premiere of Max Payne is still going on. I guess we'll find out if this theory blooms into reality on October 17th or if it just shrivels up and dies. So feel free to express what you think we are going to get on October 17th.
"Teaser Trailer" Theory and Why we are going to see a different trailer/teaser on October 17th during the Max Payne screening.
I have a theory about the "teaser trailers" we saw. If some of you remember, back in June 25th we got our first reports about footage being shown at the Cinema Expo 2008 in Amsterdam. Heres the first report from Screen Daily:
and now just recently at the Brand Licensing Europe 2008 they show some Dragonball footage also.
When Adam from Dbthemovie received these trailers from an anonymous source they were in a .VOB format meaning they were originally in a DVD (Meaning staff members at the expo just threw in the DVD and left the video files in their desktop/laptop and released it). So let me get to the point before you lose interest in reading this. The footage we saw was meant for the Expos . That would explain why we have two teasers/trailers (One for each Expo) and that would also explain the "cheesy" character cut outs thats in one of the trailers, they were for an Expo crowd to let them know who the characters are. (Also notice how the most special effects seemed a bit unfinished/not polished,this was five months ago which would explain the lack of scenes that involve a lot of special effect usage.)
I have another bit of news that further supports my claim that we are going to get a complete different trailer on October 17th.

Soon after we received an update of the footage that was shown at the Expo:"Delegates were also shown footage/trailers/teasers for thriller Mirrors (starring Kiefer Sutherland), French box-office hit Taken (starring Liam Neeson), Mark Wahlbergs new film Max Payne, The X-Files: I Want To Believe, Dragonball, romantic comedy Bride Wars (starring Kate Hudson and Anne Hathaway), Night At The Museum 2, and unseen footage of Tom Cruise Second World War drama Valkyrie."
Does the description sound familiar? We know that Immediate Music finished their score in May and the Expo took place during June 24th-June 25th.Its definitely true that theyve shown a teaser of Dragonball, but its just a couple of short scenes. Because of the enormous amounts of trailers, teasers, clips and films shown at the Expo, I cant remember exactly what I saw, but I remember that it was cool!

From IGN on August 26th:
They specifically mention that they are working on the special effects for this trailer (a different one) thats attached to Max Payne . So expect a far more coherent trailer with a better arrangement of scenes within the trailer and better special effects (Or I should say scenes that weren't included in the previous trailer because they weren't finished with VFX/SFX). Again this is speculation based around factual information/news that we've received."The first teaser trailer for the live-action feature film version of Dragonball will reportedly hit theaters in October. A studio source informed IGN that, while Oct. 17 is Foxs target date, nothing is guaranteed until the special effects and requisite approvals are in place."
