The Sun & Kamehameha combined explosion could cause an explosion that would destroy the whole Solar System, if Toriyama wanted to.
Yeah but who says he wanted to do that. It makes sense to just destroy the sun which technically would destroy the solar system.

Even though I like the Japanese and the Dub with the Japanese score, What was up with the 28 days later soundtrack at the end? that's stupid.
Edit - this was a reply to Kei17 haha it wouldn't let me quote 3 times or something like that :P

It says Solar System for starters and what? Are we supposed to believe everything a character says? Some people believe Cell was boasting when he said he could destroy the solar system so the same logic applies here. I don't mind the idea that Birusu can destroy galaxies but nothing implies it.
In the trailer it says that the entire Galaxy will cease to be.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S15KfEjZaCU

Also why would a trailer lie about a character's ability ? That doesn't make sense.
The galaxy can be done in over a long period of time, it doesn't have to be destroyed in an instant. What's most likely the case with Cell is He'll just destroy the sun which would technically destroy the solar system. There are no feats that suggest these guys can expand their Ki to the edges of a solar system or a galaxy.

Cell said that his Kamehameha had enough power to destroy the Solar System. No one ever said that he couldn't do it, there isn't any event in the manga that makes this impossible, so it's most likely true. You can disagree, but you shouldn't say this as a fact.
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.

Scaling says it's highly unlikely. You can't say with certainty he can do it and really, stuff like this only matters when we compare who is stronger than who and since we have no concrete evidence, we can't use stuff like this for comparison's sake. I believe Cell can force the sun into a Supernova but I can't back that up.

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

Well theres the comment that Trunks makes about how Vegeta narrowed down his blast so that it'll only hit Cell because he didn't want to destroy the planet.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

Destroying a planet wasn't such a big thing at that point of the story. The Solar System though, that's another story.

Thanks for the pictures TheRed259 I love that first image! :D Piccolo looks a bit grumpy :P also can anyone tell me if the old Kai is in this new movie? I know kibito Kai is. I was just curious because the old kai makes me laugh :P

He's supposed to be seen at the start with Kibito Kai, when they and Kaio are discussing Bils' waking up, I believe. I've been getting the feeling that we don't see either of them beyond this point though.

I still can't get over Detective Goten. :lol: ...Wait...does Goten have the nyoibo in that poster?! Does he use it in the movie at all? :shock:

Julian asked Yusuke Watanabe about the pun sources (and brought up the Hills/Whiskers theory) again on Twitter, this was the reply he got:

And what does that say? :P
I used Google translate and it says ''Origin, I'm not. Toriyama is a teacher Uisu birrus was the way I thought.'' that doesn't sound right...Is Google translate good?

I wasn't sure, that's why I left it untranslated. Google is iffy, sometimes you can get an accurate translation. But, most of the time it's completely off, haha. What I got from it, he did not come up with the name and Toriyama did. So, he is not 100% sure on the source himself. If I got the gist of that correctly.

I know, hell I'd wager that destroying a planet was nothing by the time they got around to fighting Freeza or even the Ginyu Force but thats just me. My comment was supporting the Idea that the Z fighters and Villians can control the size of their attacks.

Amazing pic!!

Marron is balancing on 18's finger!! wow! :shock: Kei, does Marron is shown to play with Goten and Trunks? I doubt she's strong but... could it be that she's actually having some basic training??

Now that we know Mai and Trunks might be a thing, then I guess Marron x Goten wouldn't be so far-fetched. :lol:
