10th Anniversary.
James Teal (Animerica 1996) wrote:When you think about it, there are a number of similarities between the Chinese-inspired Son Goku and that most American of superhero icons, Superman. Both are aliens sent to Earth shortly after birth to escape the destruction of their homeworlds; both possess super-strength, flight, super-speed, heightened senses and the ability to cast energy blasts. But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

Are multiple choices allowed? If so, I'd go with both Dead Zone and World's Strongest. If not, well I'll guess I'll chose then, because I can't really make up my mind right now :?

DBZ Movie #9, "Milky Way at the Brink!! The Super Incredible Guy". It's got everything I could ask for: Tournament setting, SSJ2 Gohan, Goku breaking rules of death, Trunks kicking ass, Mr. Satan hijinks, and an awesome soundtrack.
Kentai wrote:Son Gokuu is a fascinating character anyway, because he is - at face value, anyway - an idiot savant. The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

1. Curse of the Blood Rubies
2. Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle
3. Mystical Adventure (1 vote)
4. The Path to Power (2 votes)
5. Dead Zone (1 vote)
6. The World's Strongest (4 votes)
7. The Tree of Might (1 vote)
8. Lord Slug (1 vote)
9. Cooler's Revenge (3 votes)
10. The Return of Cooler (1 vote)
11. Super Android 13
12. Broly: The Legendary Super Saiyan
13. Bojack Unbound (4 votes)
14. Broly: Second Coming
15. Bio-Broly
16. Fusion Reborn (3 votes)
17. Wrath of the Dragon (1 vote)

I have found the results to be very interesting so far. I am actually in the process of rewatching all 17 movies right now because I'm thinking about changing my vote. I watched the World's Strongest last night and I thought it was very good. I haven't watched some of these movies in a couple years so I think a rewatch of the movies is long overdue for me. It doesn't surprise me at all that the World's Strongest is tied with Bojack Unbound for the most votes. I also find it interesting that everyone seems to think Cooler's Revenge is something special. I actually thought that movie was pretty bad the last time I watched it but maybe I will change my mind in the rewatch. Fusion Reborn also seems to be a popular one as well. I think it's hilarious that none of the Broly movies have one single vote so far. This shows that Broly is overall not liked by this forum. He has always been a very one dimensional villain though. I don't think he was a good enough villain to get 3 movies. Just my opinion though. I love how Super Android 13 has no votes either. The writing in that movie has always seemed really lazy though imo.

I also find it odd that not at least one person so far has picked the first Brolly movie.. and here I thought that movie was one of the most popular ones from all Z movies. I guess this is just the case with the Daizex forums and not all fans in general, though.

I'm also surprised so many people like the Bojack movie. I didn't know it was that popular. I'm glad. :D

I like the first two Broli movies, as well as Broli himself. It's just that Lord Slug is my favourite movie at the moment.

Dragonball the Path to Power. or The Dead Zone ocean dub but I guess I'll go with path to power :P
The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

I think the first Broly movie was one of the better Z movies. It's nice to see an overwhelming powerhouse a beat down to a group of characters, who themselves have enough power to individually destroy planets if they wanted to. I don't see how Broly is necessarily lacking personality. He was introduced as a bat-shit psychopath who was unable to control himself. It's like going to an asylum to visit a family member you've never met and expect to understand who they really were before they ended up in an asylum. Being crazy the way he was, is like having a wall between his real personality and the dark part of his mind telling him to kill Goku, leading him to become emotionally constricted until he completed his goal. I don't think he deserved any sequels either because his background is poor and he doesn't say much, but for his first movie, he was a fine character. His fans who hype him to hell and back are tards, but he deserves more credit.
Gohan: At least he doesn't have his sword out anymore.
Kuririn: Yeah, and your dad put his finger away too.

Bumping this thread up to the top. I just went and did some major updates to this thread as well. Bojack Unbound has the most votes right now with a total of 8 votes. Cooler's Revenge is right behind Bojack Unbound with 7 votes. The World's Strongest and Fusion Reborn are tied with 5 votes each. The Path to Power and Dead Zone are also tied with 4 votes each. Wrath of the Dragon only has 2 votes, while Mystical Adventure, The Tree of Might, Lord Slug, and The Return of Cooler only have 1 votes each. The first two Dragon Ball movies have no votes, none of the Broly movies have any votes, and Super Android 13 has no votes. Keep voting people this is a great poll.
