Yes! Piccolo Will Be Green! (Marsters Confirms)

great news!

 

I never even thought he wouldn't be green.

 

Yeeeeeaaaahoooooo!

Oh, thank you, Mr. Marsters, for disclosing this information to us at the risk of having your skin flayed off your body. It's so nice to finally be thrown a frickin' bone. -tears it apart like a rabid doberman-

And thank you, JP, for bringing it to light.

 

I don't want picollo turning by the end of this movie...

 

He'll be green for like 2 minutes. I guarantee it.

 

This is good news.

 

Too return of the jedi-y?

 

When he says

that almost makes me wonder if they're planning on slipping Raditz into the very end and picking up the sequel with Nappa and Vegeta.

...That seems awful rushy. I hope that's not what he's referring to.

 

I could definitely see them doing a Trilogy of just the Saiyan Saga.

 

I can't. There's nothing there.

Everybody Trains. Saiyans Come. Everybody Dies. Goku arrives and saves the day. How you gonna make a trilogy out of that?

I'm glad Piccolo will be green tho. And I'm happy that Marsters KNOWS the difference between King Piccolo and Piccolo Jr!!!! That was cool.

 

Nice to know it is confirmed.

 

Easy, we already have the first movie.

2nd Movie, first half is Radditz, second half is Goku's journey

3rd Movie, Vegeta and Nappa.

 

I think that the entire second movie is going to be the Saiyan Saga, with the third being the Frieza Saga. People need to remember that with TV shows, most of it is filler. If they did the Saiyan Saga as 2 movies, it'd feel like a drag to me.

 

Yes! Victory is ours!!

 

This is amazing news. My respect for James Marsters has just rised.

 

I wonder if "bald" means, besides not having hair, no antennae either. I don't really mind either way, but its just a curious thought .

 

... no pleasing some people.

 

I just said i dont really mind. I said it was just a curious thought.

 

Precisely. The anime spanned much longer than the manga. Nearly half the Namek Saga was filler. I'm thinking the same as almost everyone else. They'll likely introduce and wrap up Piccolo Daimao's story in this first one, leaving us with Piccolo Jr.

The beginning of the sequel will handle Raditz, with the meat of the story encompassing the one-year gap between Goku's death and the arrival of Nappa and Vegeta, then the big showdown. I could maybe see them making two films out of the Namek Saga and Frieza Saga, giving it an Empire/Jedi-type treatment, but I don't see them making anymore than four films out of this, at the most. We're most likely to get a trilogy out of the entire story. And I'd be cool with that, I like trilogies.

 

that's great to hear!

 

We're only going to get sequels if the first film is a success, fiscally and critically. I'm not expecting it to be a four star, oscar winning, box office dominating blockbuster, but I think if the general consensus is that it was a fun and well-crafted film that breaks the $85-120 million domestically (and maybe $300 million worldwide), there is a market for the sequel(s).

It would be cool if Raditz came in the last half hour of the film, and near his death warned them of 2 stronger Saiyans coming, setting up the second film. That's just me.

 

Well, yeah. Of course it'll depend on success. But I'm saying best case scenario, I don't think they'd go any further than a trilogy. Four movies, at the very most.

I don't want to see Raditz in this first one, except in a cliffhanger. It'd just be so rushed that way. Fox would be sending a crystal clear message that they don't give two poops and a half about Dragon Ball and just want to get to DBZ as quickly as possible.

The cliffhanger is what's important. We should get a five-years-later caption after the credits with a quick 10-second scene of Raditz' Saiyan space pod entering Earth's atmosphere.

 

Yabba Dabba Doo!

 

until i dont see him green i will not belive it.

and yes there is a chance that he willl be green in hte final battle.

p.s.: are you f... kidding me?the second movie needs to have SSJ. end of story. freezer should be the villain in the sequel. or at least vegeta and the nat the end you can have freezer. but dont come me wiht raditz. thats not right.
