It's really short, but there's a teaser out for the movie guys. Most of it just shows footage from the last DB film (the 4th 'Dragon Ball' one, The Path to Power), but we get to see some BEAUTIFUL looking backgrounds before zooming in to Goku.
oh man sooo pumpt for this even if I kinda do want to see what else Akira can do besides DBZ still should be awesome I'm so curious on whats going to happen in this movie since basically all it seems Goku does during the time split between the end of DBZ and GT is just train Uub
That's not the "Lost Decade" they're referring to. They're talking about the decade between the defeat of Majin Buu and the Tournament at the end of DBZ where we are first introduced to Uub.
They kind of serve no purpose in DBZ (probably because Toriyama forgot about them IIRC) but at least their presence in this movie can be another reason not to watch Dragon Ball GT.
I'm really hoping Pilaf and his cronies do show up, as I've grown to like them quite a bit since my last re-watch of the series.
As far as Tien goes, I'm sure he'll be there (the question is if he'll actually DO anything), Launch though...that's a taller order probably. But who knows, she did have a cameo in the Jump special.
Hmm...maybe Table will appear too, come to think of it...
Double post of 'possible' update. We may just have a title and a poster for this movie guys.
Spoiler: Highlight to view
And my post from Kanzenshuu on it, since I said my thoughts as best I could there...
I've gotta say, I'm really hoping this poster is real, because the title and the art itself really makes me excited for the movie. I dunno why, but I'm totally digging the Egyptian-cat looking guy. And if he has magical powers, like shrinking Pilaf or something, like so many are guessing...Neko Majin anyone? I highly doubt it, but I would lose it if this somehow tied that back into canon...or at least as best as you can, given the gags in that one.
As for the assumed lady floating in the background, that part's too small in the poster for me to really form any opinions yet.
If that is Videl, I'm reaaaalllllyyy hating her re-design here. It's fugly. Apparently she later gives all of her clothes to GT Bra.
But overall, I'm loving what this seems to be hinting at. If this poster is fake, whoever did this poster should totally do more of them after it's over, because they're good.
Oh, and on the Gohan being a Super Saiyan thing, I'm kind of neutral. It's possibly a big question mark, but at the same time it could be explained away easily enough. And it could also just be a promo art thing, who knows.
More news guys, though there's actually been a lot more, it's just hard to keep it all up to date here since I'm sure most everyone (myself included) is finding out about it on Kanzenshuu rather than here anyway.
At any rate though, we have a nice teaser trailer out now.

Double post for news bump, hey, remember that teaser from my last post? We got a clearer recording of it from an official site.

Doesn't really show anything more than it did in the previous clip, but man if it ain't pretty.

Pilaf, Mai and Shu might be in the movie (probably cameos)

I wonder if Tien and Launch will appear too.

I'm really hoping that Funi will licence this and give it an international release. If it came out in Australia I would try to be there opening night.
That teaser was over 9000. Just found out about this now. Can't wait!!! I'm a bit disappointed to see Gohan go super on that poster though lol.

And apparently, one of the (or maybe just this one) songs for the movie will be a cover of Head Cha La, the first DBZ opening, by FLOW.

The cover of Cha-la-head-cha-la is what got to me, I remember FLOW from doing other anime OP.
