Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods"

[Marco Polo]

"Toriyama forgot Mystic Gohan" confirmed.

Still, it's not a fact that Cell can't destroy the Solar System. This is Dragon Ball, not real-life.

I agree, it isn't a fact and you are indeed entitled to your opinion but again stuff like this only matters when comparing who is stronger than who. Since stuff like that has to be determined by the given, we can't use such unprovable statements like the one Cell made. Death Battle for example didn't take Cell's statement into account because thy couldn't prove it's validity with an official statement or feat. If you feel Cell can really destroy a solar system, more power to you but it can't be taken seriously when comparing 2 characters.

"Toriyama forgot Mystic Gohan" confirmed.

How so?

[JeffJarrett]

Someone on 2ch pointed out that Birusu and Uisu are puns for these:

Hill's is spelled ヒルズ (Hiruzu) in Japanese, so it becomes ビルス (Birusu) if you move the ゛ mark, and whiskas is spelled ウィスカス (Uisukasu/Wisukasu).

So, this makes Bills (and Whis) more accurate than Beers.

Who cares?

Who cares?

Obviously you don't. Others do. If you don't have anything interesting or informative to say, please refrain from posting.

[Kaboom]

Okay, this is a general message to everyone... please stop leaving big images in your quotes. It makes the page cluttered and harder to scroll through and read.

See these tags?

Code: Select all

When you see them in something you're quoting, all you have to do is change them to THIS instead.

It's that easy.

Just to confirm, we are still awaiting translations for the interview in the official movie guide, and the most recent interview discussing the inclusion of gods in Toriyama works was from V Jump?

[MagicBox]

The Toriyama Poster: Pu-erh balancing on Marron balancing on #18 is too cute. It's great to see Bee, too. I hope he shows up in the movie itself.

The "Official Movie Guide" Book: Is it really only 36 pages? This was mentioned a few pages back, but I find that really, really hard to believe. If those images from the previous page are indeed from that guide, though, then I'll be picking it up regardless of its length. It's nice to see that the other voice actors (Tanaka, Horikawa) have little mini-interviews!

[Jackal puFF]

Thanks for posting that image of the group shot! And that clip from itunes is pretty good! Really shows how weak Goku is compared to the god of destruction.

[DBZGTKOSDH]

Yeah, didn't notice that. Seems logical, since he forgot that Kaioshin merged with Kibito, thought that Super Saiyan 3 was actually Super Saiyan 2, and completely forgot Taopaipai. But either way, none of these matter anymore, since Toriyama read the whole manga again!

His eyes are not entirely circled like Ultimate Gohan:

So you're treating a fan-interpretation of the art as an established, in-universe fact?

No, he just said that Toriyama forgot Ultimate Gohan, not that Gohan lost the power-up.

[Ryuman]

To be fair, it's a very consistent trait.
Anyway, I think it's less to do with Toriyama forgetting the power-up itself, but just him forgetting the eye thing. Maybe it was just a honest mistake when he was drawing it.

[Gyt Kaliba]

I still don't understand the obsession with whether or not Gohan was meant to be a Super Saiyan in the film originally and was fixed to Ultimate, or not. At least, I don't get it from a 'how strong is he in this movie' perspective. It's a curiosity to be sure, if you like to follow a movie's development and the background of it, but in movie he's getting his butt handed to him either way, so it makes no difference. Now maybe, if he'd been shown as a Super Saiyan and was holding his own, I'd be more concerned with him doing better than Goku without his Ultimate state...but that doesn't happen.

This. And even if he read through the entire manga to refresh his memory, he probably wouldn't notice that little detail. Not to mention that picture is in a different art style.

- Goku punches a hole through a planet 10x more dense than Earth when battling Bill.

And that planet is King Kai's planet: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vAmtkSraJaE

Can anyone confirm or deny these claims for this movie

Oh god you're back . I don't why you want Universe destroying powers so badly in DBZ when destroying Planets is already good enough. I think the galaxy destroying claim came from Piccolo in the trailer which I'm going to take a grain of salt. No one in DBZ shown the power to up wipe out a galaxy completely, so I doubt Birusu can do it even with power scaling.
