Well I'm going to be moving into my mother's attic. Is that as bad as a basement? At least I will be above everyone else instead of below.

So this has gone from Superman vs. Goku, to Attics vs. Basements.

I take them much more seriously than I take someone who quite often badly segues into his pro-drug, anti US government rants, for little or no reason at all.

That, my friend, is why you are Captain Awesome.



I'm not a big fan of these kind of debates, not only does it make little sense to bother (obviously superman fans will be biased to superman and vice versa) but also, I really doubt Goku and Superman would have any reason to fight unless it was sparring, which they wouldn't go all out and try to kill each other anyway.

These debates may be stupid and pointless, but....

Well, I wasn't really saying it was stupid. :P We've had a few threads like this recently though. Hope you didn't take that as an insult to you.

Seeing how both Goku and Superman can't die (being that both of them would just find a way to come back to the fight if they had to), I'm willing to bet that if they fought, they would probably destroy the universe before deciding a winner.

With all the talk about nerds, it's making me wonder whether DB fans will be looked at as stereotypical nerds if the movie's a success like many comic fans were and some guys were during the first Pokemon movie.

If I didn't know any better I would say you've read one of my reviews on the game that talk about the hours on end I played that game?

I am a geek. Not a nerd.

....or maybe I'm a dweeb.....or a dork? Who knows. :?

Anybody that holds extra knowledge of a film based off another source material is looked upon as a "stereotypical nerd".
The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

Getting semi-back on topic, Arale continues to own me as SSj4 Gokû in Sparking METEOR so if anything I vote Arale fights Superman. :lol:

It's pretty much inevitable, us fans of the show are going to be looked at as nerds by the "general public" of movie viewers who havents seen the show.

I hate Arale with a passion, she has no soul and will destroy all who stand in her path. She doesn't discriminate with the ass whoopings: SSJ, SSJ3, SSJ4, Fusions, it doesn't matter because she is a retarded robot who has no limits. :lol:

I love fighting with Arale is Sparking! METEOR. :lol:

Because I love the way she runs around and you can move around quickly with her. My brother says I'm really hard to fight when I get her in Random.

And I vote she could beat Superman aswell. I mean she karate chopped the world in half.

Of course Arale would win....gag manga characters can never die no matter what weird things happen to them.

Which is no different from Pre-Crisis Superman, when you think about it.

You're right I take neither of them seriously when reading their comics and often laugh at both.

Heck, all of the early DB characters are impossible to beat. Cyborg #8 keeps kicking my tail over the sunset and back and in makes a man infuriated! :x
