I like how you can see Piccolo's white skin from under his sleeve in the second pic. That girl is pretty fine though.

In the cartoon Mai is one of Pilaf's henchmen, so I guess she is Piccolo's hench... woman in the movie.

Looks like a pretty good shade of green to use to me. ALso...this is Lord Piccolo, so if you are looking for the turban and cape...well, it doesn't belong on this guy. And ya, I know its not faithful to Lord Piccolo either, but does anyone really have a big desire to see his little purple sleeveless? This is much more fitting in a movie universe......
There is a lot to call into question with this movie, but some of the complaints are starting to get ridiculous.

Did you notice that their eyes didn't look like trapezoids? This movie is totally unfaithful to the manga! What will those morons screw up next?!

I really hope you caught the sarcasm there. I even included a funny /internet rant thing and all.

Seriously, no one even bothered to do any fact checking on Wikipedia before they made this? They got every element wrong, even in ways you couldn't possibly screw it up.
It's not as bad as DOuble Dragons.*shivers*
I wanna see it cuz it looks terrible.

I seriously love how deadpan Goku delievers everything. It's to the point where I'm starting to view this as more of a comedy than an action movie.

It still makes me cry inside when I remember that this is an adaption of DRAGON BALL.

She is much more militaristic, not so much an assassin, but more like a spy force in the original version. She's basically the brains of the outfit and works with a ninja fox named Shu (a horrible Japanese food pun... Shuu Mai). She wasn't in the manga that much, and featured a lot in the anime. I doubt she was ever in Z... she was at the beginning of GT, though.

Mai is hot and all in this movie, but I'd kill to see her in that Chinese Red Army uniform she wears in the manga/anime.

Honestly it looks good to me, this is a western live action retelling of DB, not DBZ, DB.

Thats how piccolo looks, it could be a tad bit greener but its fine..

its got the dragonball, the wishing, the fighting, the blast etc.

honestly too many people are picky

Yours wasn't nearly as obvious as Voltron's. Good to know you weren't serious though...

They consider Shus food in Japan?? No wonder they make you take them off and leave them at the door.
