Akira Toriyama writes new script & designs new characters for next spring's film
The September issue of Shueisha's V Jump magazine is announcing on Saturday that a new Dragon Ball Z movie will open during the Golden Week string of holidays next spring. Dragon Ball manga creator Akira Toriyama is personally credited with the original concept, screenplay and character designs of the new movie "that the entire universe eagerly awaits!!"
Toriyama confirmed in the magazine that this new film, like last year's Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods, will tell a new story. He had intends to write this story as if it were a continuation of manga's original serialization. Although he did not plan on it, he is not only putting a lot of effort in drawing the art, but also "fussing over the smallest dialogue lines." He also promised more action scenes. He teased that the story is still secret, but will be "utterly funny."
To emphasize the effort he has put into this new film, Toriyama said that even his first manga editor praised him on the work he has done, even though this editor rarely ever does that. Toriyama is confident that fans will be able to thoroughly enjoy the movie. He is currently drawing up new character designs, and asked his fans to look forward to the movie.
Update: Toriyama intends to write this story as if it were a continuation of manga's original serialization, not that he intended to write it while the manga was serializing. Thanks, Ryuman and Kanzenshuu.
What are your thoughts on this? I'm super excited as I've recently re-watched all of the episodes!

I wasn't into it too much either.
Either way, it's good that they're reviving it.

The last movie: 'Battle of the Gods' was extremely disappointing, so I probably won't bother watching this.

How was it disappointing? It's a great way of rebooting a series.

The movie just really didn't live up to my expectations.

I grew up with the series, so I feel obliged to watch it regardless of how well it does with others.

I hope it will be better than Battle of Gods

For a brief agonizing moment I thought this was talking about a sequel to Dragon Ball Evolution...
No words can express how glad I am it was not.
So does this replace GT or is it being completely ignored?

The last movie: 'Battle of the Gods'... I had no idea. I really need to keep track of those old series.
