Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
How in the world is Beerus being an powerful evil deity out to destroy the universe and turning all of Goku's friends against him safer than the film we got? That doesn't make any sense. The original draft showcased are far more hopeless and tension-filled scenario for Goku than the film we actually got. Battle of Gods was too light-hearted and had little real tension compared to most of the 13 Z films, and Beerus himself was hardly an evil menace.HeroR wrote:More like faux tension and drama because to have tension and drama you need to actually believe that the good guys can lose. It's basically the same thing since the 'corruption' was frame similarly to how Beerus was going to corrupt Goku's friends and family against him. Like no one in Dragon Ball Z or GT blamed the people who were corrupted by Garlic Jr or Baby for their actions.zarmack wrote:
Toei's version still would have brought more tension and drama than the film we got. Also, Beerus wasn't said to have brainwash the Saiyans in this draft, only that he corrupted most of them. They would still have their free will and still would be responsible for what they did.
The original Battle of Gods script was far safer than Toriyama's since Toriyama expanded the story while Toei was basically an one and done story with no real consequences afterwards like the other 13 movies they made.

That still doesn't make any sense. If quality is subjective it doesn't suddenly make everything the same in quality.zarmack wrote:If you don't believe that quality is objective then it makes no sense to call anything shitty or great.

That first part is especially ridiculous. If you believe that something is subjective, it still makes sense to say something is shitty or great, literally the essence of subjectivity is that it depends on the person's opinion. In my opinion X is really good or Y is really shitty.

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
I read the whole synopsis out of curiosity. To hell with them spoilers!
There's one thing that isn't mentioned there and that's the three saiyans' birth year.
Would someone be so kind as to tell a fellow their official/current/post-Broly-movie/retconned , whatever you wanna call it, ages?
Because to me it sounds like Vegeta is no longer 5 years older than Goku.
Would appreciate Goku, Vegeta and Broly's birth years (that is, of course, if the movie provides this information at all)

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
I don't really remember it, but was it said anywhere in the manga that Belmond is stronger than Beerus? All I remember is that Beerus lost an arm-wrestling match with Quitela, which also doesn't really mean anything. These two were also the last two fighters during the God match, which means they are probably top tier. We don't really know how good Belmond is, but he was faking that he was hurt. Anyhow, Beerus must be amazing just cause he fought multiple Gods at once.Amir wrote:And also just a tiny bit stronger than the rest of the GoDs besides Belmod (not saying Belmod is stronger).IM21 wrote:agree. we don't know how strong Beerus really is.

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
No disrespect. This too is headcannon. We don't know how much stronger Beerus is to other gods. Only official canonical source is that he and Quitela are close.Amir wrote:And also just a tiny bit stronger than the rest of the GoDs besides Belmod (not saying Belmod is stronger).IM21 wrote:agree. we don't know how strong Beerus really is.

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
Broly even in the first movie never made sense. I just looked at my copy of the first movie and Broly recognized Goku by look. Like, how the hell does Broly remember what Goku looks like when they were both newborns and as far as I saw in the flashback, he never even laid eyes on Goku. So there was more than just 'Broly was just traumatized by Goku's crying because it reminded him being stabbed' since if this was PTSD, he would be triggered by Goku crying or something. Not him seeing Goku and then trying to murder him at night.BrolyKale wrote: He is not bad as a villain, not at all. Especially for a movie villain he had a big background, one of the best from the movies. First Broly was a well written villain, its not only about Goku crying as baby its more than that, the crying thing is metaphoric. Broly got nearly killed by King Vegeta as a baby and was thrown in the garbage. He was violent and had a hard time controlling himself, Paragus also used him for his own ambitions too. The second coming made him look more angrier and insane and that's all.

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
Unless Toei planned to do something long lasting with Beerus and his mind control plot, it wasn't going to go anywhere, just like Garlic Jr mind controlling everyone went no where. It would be as intense and as hopeless as the original Broly movie. Everyone gets beat up, Goku ass pull something, we all laughed at the end and this incident is never mentioned again.zarmack wrote:

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
This is a relativist fallacy. Science is rapidly reaching the conclusion that quality/beauty is an objective and measurable thing like weight and height. Just because people have different tastes and preferences doesn't mean there is no objective quality independent of them. Like how just because people believe different things about a topic (like the shape of the Earth) doesn't mean there are no objective facts about it.Cetra wrote: Quality just without context cannot be objective. He is right. You need to establish a certain standard that people agree upon under which they evaluate. In that relation things can be objective. But there is no universal law that people need to follow that standard and more importantly, the standard does not even exist without people establishing it. Quality is no natural fact. And yes, I can establish a standard under with your Godfather movie and whatever you mentioned before can be equally good.

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
No, it is not a relativist fallacy and the fact that you are trying to argue with an actual scientist does not make it any better. There are things that only can be valued through contextualization. Without context you could be talking about anything without any actual meaning. And I am beginning to think you have not even read what I wrote because if you actually had or at least understood it you would know there was a part where I agreed with you. But you are not right beyond that.zarmack wrote:This is a relativist fallacy.

That's the logical conclusion of denying the existence of objective quality. If its all just subjective then nothing is truly better or worse than anything else.

Yes, it is different. Math works under axioms that establish why things are the way they are.

Re: Official On-Going Dragon Ball Super Movie Thread: "Broly"
Exactly, so all this about Broly is really just theories. In the movie from what they gave us, Broly recognized Goku despite that being completely illogical and the only link given to us is 'Goku cried a lot'. It seemed the movie was trying to give a deeper meaning, but it honestly never made sense or came together, and then the sequel movies just did away with any symbolizing they may or may not have been going for.BrolyKale wrote: There is no official explanation about the movie...

It's actually more complex than a mere crying. The crying triggered his PTSD from what happened to him as a baby and turned him into a psychotic version of himself.
Broly was decently written. I mean I've read the synopsis of the new Broly and I'm not that impressed. He seems, at a first read, the typical introvert and controlled guy, with rage fits, much like Kale (a better version of her). I would've kept some of the psychotic facets, maybe not as much as before to keep him sympathetic enough.
