I'd just like to pop in again and make sure we all realize the movie is NOT going to just be a high school drama with martial arts, right?

10 minutes worth of school-setting scenes with 2 or 3 forgettable characters does not negate the other 90% of the movie all about adventuring and hunting DragonBalls and the Budokai and King Piccolo wanting to rule the world and Goku's Saiyan heritage and Grandpa Gohan's dying wish and Roshi fulfilling it by teaching Goku and the combat and the espionage and the kickassery, and all the promotions of things NOT high school-related, like ancient temples and Bulma with guns and motorbikes and Goku in his awesome-looking gi, and Chi-Chi and Mai's sexy fight in their sexy outfits, and Yamcha and the awesomeness that is Piccolo that they're teasing us by not showing his face and yadda yadda yadda...

Just because there are a few little details that don't quite match up, that doesn't mean we should ignore the good stuff. Yeah, there's some stuff in a school. They probably are mixing some Gohan/Videl-like stuff in there, since odds are the movies won't span that far into the original series. But that's not inherently a problem in itself, and is all dependent on HOW they do it. For all we know, this could not only br Goku's first time at a school, but in a city at all.

Just saying, let's not jump to conclusions and judge the entire movie based on a few little details we don't like. I've been saying that from the beginning.
