I think what she meant by 'half/half/half' that the cast should be international. Anyway, that's what I voted for....

What I think is funny, is that some people want the person who plays Goku to be white, but the person who play's Vegeta should be Asian... I haven't voted yet. I don't really like voting anymore...

i'd say other cuz it's a mix for me and different races for different characters. goku - european-american or asian-american vegeta - european piccolo - african american yamcha - american tien - asian krillin - asian-american or american gohan - depends on what goku and chi chi are goten - same as gohan trunks - american chi chi - asian american bulma - american android 18 - american android 17 - american with a a little asian heritage hercule - american radditz - depends on what goku is nappa - european-american videl - american or asian-american that's it for me...for now i guess, what do ya'll think? i just hope they get actors/actresses who can really act like the characters regardless of race or skin color (well we don't wanna see a short latino guy who is a great actor playing krillin though ;D). fox will make the right decisions .......

All I care about is good acting. Race is something stupid to argue over. It's fine to think what you want them to be. But if it came down to it, would you rather have someone who looks exactly like Goku but can't act? Or someone who can act and looks moderately like Goku? I know my choice. P.S. You can't have half, half, half. It would be a third of this, a third of that, and another third of something else. Unless that was a poor joke. ;D I couldn't agree more. But I must state that Saiyans,Namekans and other ethnic groups alike must be similar, just for coherency porpouses...

I believe we did mention , his skin will be green Vegeta looks ALL Asian i believe you mentioned that, i don't think anyone agreed. when i see namekians, to me it makes me think if they were human, they'd be more of an african american race than any other. yea his skin is green, i didn't say piccolo should be played by a black actor cuz he'll be black in the movie, no. i don't care what skin color the person is, it's just more black actors seem to fit the role better from what i've seen. name one actor of a different race that can pull of piccolo. and vegeta looks asian??? he looks nothing like any asian i've ever seem. like i said, he seems more european. i've seen many europeans (mostly italians) who remind me of saiyans, because of the appearence, and the crazy eating habbits ;D, and much more.

* please note, by "American" I mean Caochasian or however its spelled, you know, a white guy but without an accent.
Goku - American Vegeta - British ( he even has the accent in the show) Gohan - American Piccillo - Aferican American, if not green. Bulma - American Chi-Chi- American Trunks - American Goten - American Krillen - American Tien/ Chiotsu - Asian Yamcha - American
Kami - Asian ( come on now, an old smart kungfu guy, hellooooo) Roshi - The same as Kami ( helloooo) Yanjarobi - A fat Asian Radits - British ( him and Goku grew up differently, hes more like Vegeta) Nappa - American 18, 17, 16, and cell - American Buu - Pink Blob
Hercule - Can anyone say, Mr. All American?....... well thats what he is.

I agree with you completly. However for the best results I think that Akira Toriyama should have some had in casting. But it's acting that's important, more than nationality to a certain extent.

Ok people say Saiyans don't look asian but hardly does any other anime character, even though they are supposed to be since they are a japanese series. Or that they are even in the residence of a japanese city or country. But yes some characters in anime(in cluding dragonball z) are definetly supposed to be of other ethinics .
IMO, I think Son Goku looks alot like a japanese person , specially in Dragon Ball.
Every one has there own opinions thats what is great, it gives people stuff to talk about. To discuss , thats why we come to these boards the talk about the dbz movie and Dragonball ,z,gt.
Oh yeah on Hiei putting Half/half/half , it might not be politically correct but in a way it is right ,
the second half would be 1/2 of the first , and the 3rd half would be the half of the second , Yes, though it was 1/3 of the first it still was only the the 1/2 of the 2nd 1/2.
