Terrible movie.

Also, the new mortal kombat movie supposedly coming out destroyed the plot too.
I've read that that was just a pitch and not something that is actually in the process of being made. Source?

Oh I've heard it was supposed to actually be made. But to be honest idk much about it, either way if it were done I think it would have a lot of flaws.
I just found this though, haven't looked through it a ton but you might find some info there.

Would be cool to see a new MK movie. I just figured you were talking about this.
Unless that link and video are related.

Ha yeah that's the one the link was for. I like all the ninjas and monsters and sorcerers and shit. This one is just too realistic to feel like the real Mortal Kombat to me.

Exactly, so why does he have to be White? It's painfully apparent that that is just a marketing ploy, a product of our pathetic Westernized mainstream media.

Charlie Sheen shouldve been cast as Goku. I mean, they're both winning all the time and it wouldnt fuck the movie up any further. Might return a bit of an abstract elememt to it 
Samuel L Jackson as Piccolo, all jokes aside now THAT would work!
Thisd Goku though, you want to give him a skateboard, not a dragonball.

i'd be far more interested in the movie if Charlie Sheen were a part of the cast. then it'd just be obvious that the movie isn't to be taken seriously.

charlie sheen is too energetic to be goku.
goku liked to stare his enemies down for 3 episodes before getting down to business and actually fighting them
....which is my only problem with the entire dragonball series.
"oh you dont like what i do? well i dont like what you do" "oh really" "yea... really" "well what are you gonna do about it?" "im really angry right now! ill tell ya what" "well come get some" "maybe in a little im charging up right now" "well thats cool because so am i"
....and that goes on for 3 episodes before they actually fight. meanwhile theyre both floating in the air staring at each other with super mad faces looking like theyre about to lunge; so as a kid i was like glued to the tv and every time the episode was a total let down because it would be that crap straight to the credits.

Personality wise I think Charlie Sheen would fit well as Master Roshi. They're both dogs.
Bruce Willis would be Tien.

Ooh guys this you gotta see, this takes you way back:
Also illustrates the utter FAIL of trying to make a live action/CGI DBZ. Its just not made for realism.

I was in my mid 20s when I saw DBZ. Goku had that rolemodel like quality about him, for kids, the target audience, no doubt he wouldve been an ideal "older brother" like character, they themselves identifying with Gohan. In the snippets of the live action Goku, I see none of that dignified rolemodel side, I think thats my biggest objection to the Goku presented here. This is just some cool kid with mad skillz.

Except Gohan was his son.
But I agree, Goku was virtuous and goofy. Hip white Goku has none of that

Agreed.
He doesn't have the look for him, he looks like an underdog. He'd fit more as Gohan.

Probably more.
Cell was a shitload as well.
I watched the Cell games on my first mushroom trip. It was horrible. The episode where Cell is just beating the fuck out of Gohan, and Goku is like "lol he's fine" while he's getting murdered
The music was so urgent and strange and the whole vibe was just off and violent

In my opinion the reason he looks white is because he looks white. The majority of characters look white. Some characters are overtly asian, like Tao Pai Pai and Goku's adoptive grandfather, but most DBZ characters look white.

the actor used to portray Goku is remarkably perfect. The shape of his skull is almost identical to Goku's; Justin Chatwin also has very thin lips, which perfectly match Goku who's lips, like many illutrations, are depicted as a black line.
