I can't stand the thought of that not getting released. lol also I think a-lot of my friends are going to be disappointed with this movie. one of them even started saying they hope it has battles like the first Broly movie.
I don't really see why the first Broly movie gets so much hate around here, yeah Broly's not a very great villain, but it's one of the only Dbz movies that actually felt like a movie as opposed to an extended episode of the anime. It was also pretty cool seeing the characters fighting together to try and defeat a single enemy.
That's my biggest issue with it. Yeah, it actually
feels like a film but so much of the potential is wasted.
There's this mysterious and unhinged allure to Broli when we're first introduced to him. His initial reaction to Goku is unnerving and that only builds as we progress throughout the film.
Next minute, we learn that Broli despises Goku because of the most asinine and absurd reason I've ever heard. Paragas is swiftly disposed of and that interesting dynamic is suddenly gone.
So what are we left with? A giant brute screaming 'Kakarroto' over and over while the Z fighters try and pummel the shit out of him.
It's just incredibly disappointing. They had real potential to introduce a movie rival to live up to Vegeta's presence in the series and yet managed to reduce him to a worthless punchbag like every other villain.
Had they come up with a well written reason, developed this unhinged nature of Broli, and tapped into the father-son side of things with Paragas, we could have had a very interesting, multi-layered character on our hands.
I do really believe though that he is kinda over-hyped in the sense that a-lot of people thinks he's the best there is! Like I said, My friends want a 4th movie where he goes Super Saiyan 3.....
