Is herms also going to JP to translate the dialog in the film for AJay in the theater?

Especially since we lose Bardock's last stand

We don't? He still has a last stand in the movie. Freeza kills him etc etc.

It seems that the first 46 minutes of the movie have been leaked in YouTube...

I just mention it. I am not applauding the fact that the movie is being leaked.

[Yedis]

The 46 minute video is just low quality cell phone footage from a guy who was in the theater that was showing the movie.

[excelhedge]

I only have one question.

Is Broly alive at the end of the movie?

And thanks

You know, it would be interesting to Broly and Chelye become a couple. Because it'll be the first time a Saiyan actually gets together with someone who isn't an Earthling. Although, assuming that the Saiyan/Whatever the heck Chelye's race is hybrid they produce has green skin like his/her mother, it would be weird to see him/her go Super Saiyan. It would be double weird to see him/her go Berserk if he/she inherit that from his/her father, because the green skin and the green hair would really clash. But anyways,what do you guys think?

Tarble and his wife?

Are we supposed to support Broly in this movie?

The guy that let's just say in another (non canon) parallel universe killed his own father, destroyed the planet of those little aliens and said that he is the devil?

[BrolyKale]

Just saw some videos and this new Broly is just another Goku... uncultivated, stupid, good hearted, talented and strong.

[majinwarman]

I’m not going to watch camera rips of the film because I’m going to wait until the film drops in America to enjoy the full experience.

That's the old version. The new, Toriyama-penned version is much more of a tragic character this go around

[freak27]

When can we expect a Blu-Ray release for the movie?

[Lujin_16]

i have seen some overall ratings of the movie in some japanese pages eiga.com,yahoo.jp,filmarks.com and all of them 4.1 out of 5

Seems like it will be the best dragonball movie ever but we have to wait and see because the american/europe audience etc are different and much worse

with complainings

[Grimlock]

• People who just care about fights will certainly give this movie the highest rating.
• People who care about animation will certainly give this movie the highest rating.

But the real thing is, can people who care about story/lore/content give this movie the highest rating? We shall see.

Impressions, now that I've slept on it; while this is pretty general, there will be some spoilers:

Spoiler:

Movie stuff:
- Animation is A+++++, jaw on the floor during 90 percent of the action scenes
- Broly is surprisingly the best part of the film, along with Cheelye and Lemo; he actually evokes a lot of pathos in this film. Yes, Toriyama successfully fixed Broly
- The Broly backstory is great, but the Minus material does little to justify its existence in this film. It's presented well, though. Bardock has his battle damage in his death scene.
- There's one bit when Goku jumps on a couple Freeza minions' spaceship and starts blowing steam out of his nose like a bull that nearly killed me. It felt like they lifted that straight out of OG DB. I NEED TO HEAR NOZAWA DO THAT SCENE

Dub stuff:
- The dub actors for the new characters were fantastic. Dameon Clarke also stood out to me with his Paragas.
- Broly talked less like Tarzan in the dub it seems, but Mignogna does deliver his speech in a bit stilted manner. Like, the lines themselves aren't written like broken English (though they aren't written too complex, either), but Mignongna kinda delivers them that way? I don't quite know how to describe it. He does a great job, though.
- Sabat, Schemmel, Rial, and the others are as good as you'd expect these days.
- Hearing Ayres again was a wonderful treat. As good as he was in this, you wouldn't even think he was sick.

All in all, I had a great time! Speaking objectively, I wouldn't put this above Battle of Gods; the story is paced about perfectly there whereas the Minus material kinda brings down the pacing in this. Still, I find it fantastic for the animation alone. The fact that we got a pretty good (if uneven) story and characters out of this along with the visuals is spectacular. A cut above Resurrection F for sure (and I still mostly like F despite its flaws). The dub is also good, though I NEED to hear Nozawa do some of this stuff. See it in theaters for sure! Also, feel free to ask other questions!

When can we expect a Blu-Ray release for the movie?

Mostly likely in late May. Most movies get released on home video six months after their initial theatrical debut.

Did it lack tension? One of main gripes with BOG is that there was too much comedy and too lighthearted.
