And I thought bringing Broly back was a bad idea… but doing a CG DB movie? Does Toei just hate me, personally, or what?

I'm excited for this. If Pan is 5 then that means they've finally decide to age up Goten and Trunks, which Super was just abysmal with. I also hope Pan and Piccolo are important parts of this, it doesn't have to be about Goku this time!

Going fully 3D is especially weird after Broly. "Here's some breathtaking 2D animation... now we're never doing that again"

Welp, I'm gonna miss the beautiful animation of DBS Broly. Now we have to make do with the basic 3DCG, Netflix anime-style animation this movie is gonna have.

You do know that a ton of Super: Broly was actually GC, especially during the fights, but was simply done so well that very few actually noticed, right? Seriously, go back & watch that movie, and you'll start noticing all of the CG that you may not have noticed the first time around.

I think this new movie being all CG won't be anywhere near as bad as are thinking it will be.

I did in fact know there was CG in Broly, it was very noticeable and not nearly as omnipresent as you seem to want to believe. But thanks for the condescension (and for ignoring the "fully 3D" part so you could go "well ACHSTUALLY").

If the movie is actually going to be full cgi, why? Broly looked good as hell, was the highest grossing movie in the series and as far as I can tell, the staff is still at Toei. Really weird that if they decided to change a winning formula for an unknown, though the few times that cgi was used in Broly weren't so bad.

Proof that Toei should have waited until after production on Dragon Quest Dai was over as there's where most of the last movie's staff went along with One Piece Wano.

Did Toei look at what popular? What next, Dragon Ball Super: Demon Slayer?

Dragon Ball Redundant Hero. So Goku jumping up and getting in stance was my favorite scene in the movie. Then they decided to ruin it by reusing it in this trailer in the least appealing way possible. I wish I could sit in on these board meetings because the decisions they make.... smh

I'm not against CG, especially if handled well, but it's going to be pretty surreal to watch an all CG Dragon Ball movie.

Anime fans are truly terrified of change. I welcome the idea of an all CGI movie. So many anime is already having large amounts of CGI, and, hate me all you want, but it may be less stressful then spending days on drawn animation. I want the industry to change, and if this could make things better(I personally doubt it) then I am all for some variety. Besides, Lupin showed CGI can look great in anime.

I'll judge how good or bad the CGI is, once we have a real trailer. 2 out of 3 of the modern DB movies have been pretty great, so I'm willing to be optimistic with Toei here. Their track record has improved greatly over the last few years. And I'm glad we aren't rehashing any more characters from earlier films as was speculated. Just because it worked with Broly, doesn't mean it could or should be tried again.

That being said, this movie better have Gohan feature heavily in it as the Great Saiyaman once more.
