Most Bizarre Cast And Crew Ever.

Well, first off... the Dragonball movie has been in the works for ages (its been a torrid on-again/off-again affair). But it is now officially underway, and a large chunk of the cast has been revealed. And I must say, it's one of the most bizarre casts I've ever seen... especially when it comes to fitting the characters of the Dragonball universe.

Goku... Justin Chatwin (from The Invisible and War of the Worlds)


Piccolo... James Marsters (Spike from Buffy the Vampire Slayer)

Yamcha... Joon Park (from the upcoming Speed Racer)


Mai... Eriko Tamura (from Heroes)


Bulma... rumored to be Emmy Rossum (from Phantom of the Opera)

Chi-Chi... Jamie Chung (dunno)


Master Roshi... Chow Yun-Fat (no introduction needed)


And on top of all that, it's being produced by Stephen Chow (of Shaolin Soccer and Kung Fu Hustle fame) and directed by James Wong (Final Destination).

Random note: I think it's odd that the only white people seem to be the main male and female and the bad guy. Everybody else is Asian. Goku and Piccolo I can understand, seeing they're from different planets... and James Marsters should be/better be covered in green. But Bulma is from the same place everybody else is from... so why is she white? It's just interesting that they make a live action movie based off an anime/manga, and make a half white/half Asian cast. You'd think they'd either go one way or the other.

Anyway, what do y'all think? Or do y 'all even care?
