I'll say this: Guardians Of The Galaxy was touted to fail because of it's seemingly much lighter, softer and comedic tone even by Marvel movie standards. And that film ended up being a hige success. If FnF ends up being the best critically received Dragon Ball Z film ever, I will die laughing.

If the 120 min run time is true, then ain't fight fight fight going to get boring eventually? Godzilla is a perfect example of this, we hardly see the dude and that was what made the final fight scene so good. (Well in my opinion). That is what I want from this movie too, one epic fight at the end, instead of several sprinkled throughout like Man of Steel (my only grip with that movie).

So to bring up an actual point of discussion....

Is anyone else noticing a bunch of tonal similarities between BoG/RoF and the Otherworld Tournament filler arc? I think that's probably the closest that the anime ever got to what the new movies are doing.

The thing that popped into my head on Freeza's punishment, was some old Animaniacs skits that did similar things where characters have to endure this stuff (the Barney parody character was the first one I thought of, but the Sound of Music parody character works too).

That was super-long ago though, so I don't fully recall how the Warners rescued themselves.

Ahh good times, I miss those guys. Also, Freeza was a pretty funny guy (Kai dub) I laughed at things he said on more than one occasion.

With all the flak this movie has gotten now outside this community, I can see this having at least the same reviews as BoG, which were decent.

I solely blame the Transformer movies for ruining the concept of building up action in action movie. Action films with constant fight scenes only work well if it's confined to one area. Hence why it worked so well with The Raid. But if you build up or hype up a fight scene and then have the fight scene happen constantly all over the place it may look cool, but you become numb to the idea of Autobots and Decepticons fighting each other because you've already seen it so much.

Youtube and Saiyan Island don't count as communities. :wink: They're hipsters that refuse to take off their nostalgia glasses.

The Ginyu Force were a part of Freeza's arc. Considering they worked for Freeza and called in specifically by Freeza.

I sorely doubt the movie will be even 105 minutes, let alone 120 minutes. Unless Yamamuro and the Toei Animation producer assigned to the film managed to corral a ton a talented key animators I also doubt there will be much in the way of action. We know based on Twitter profiles that the CG department of Toei Animation has been busy at work creating CG for the movie, so a lot of the film is probably going to be CG, too. If this was Murata Kazuya pulling off another Hagane no Renkinjutsushi Milos no Seinaru Hoshi, a 120 minute movie with a ton of action would work. This isn't going to be that movie, though.

Exactly, also didn't Ginyu do some wacky dance in front Freeza too?

Then again, you have people here who are bitching about the animations. I forgot to add that, so it's not just those two communities.

Aaand, I have to be honest, but I'm one semi-hipster who has only one nostalgia goggle on my eye :lol: . Half the reason I'm mad at the whole angel and Pilaf reveal is cuz...I want this movie to be an improvement.

Wait...I thought the Namek and Frieza arcs were apart from each other. I know they're both part of one saga, but still...

These are Hell's Angels. Cute and cuddly creatures torturing the PLANET-DESTROYING TYRANT known as Freeza. That's funny. That's humorous.
Erm no, that's not even remotely funny...They tried being funny in the last movie with Pilaf and they failed miserably unless you were a 5 year old who found drawing poo's funny.
This film is aimed at international audiences, too, so this film has even less room to be violent.
That makes no sense. This movie is aimed at Dragon Ball Z fans who are well aware of the show and its violence and didn't stop them from liking it anyway. Stripping that away and putting in more childish scenes isn't what fans want.
I cannot for the life of me see why anyone would want a super-serious non-spinoff Dragon Ball movie.
Nobody said anything about it being super serious I'd just rather not turn into a childish joke.
Then why are you even here? This obviously isn't for you. Allow me to redirect you to Dragon Ball Multiverse or Dragon Ball AF. I feel those will suit your needs better than anything this movie will give you. As for the rest of us real fans, we'll continue to wait and see what Toriyama has in store for us. I'm too excited and can't wait.

So you know what fans want?
I know what they don't want and they don't want cute baby theme coloured angels based and voiced by some girly Japanese pop idol band having "comedic" scenes with Frieza in a Dragon Ball Z movie.

Again... Huh? What about the genuine positive reaction I definitely saw from some people?

He's just as much as a "real fan" as you are. Nobody would be reacting so passionately to something like Dragon Ball if he didn't love it so much. Try to respect everyone's opinion.

Because I like Dragon Ball? Does me being on here mean I must accept anything related to Dragon Ball? There's nothing you haven't liked from this entire meta series?

That's a pretty elitist thing to say for someone who only has 7 posts.

No, you don't know what anyone doesn't want as much as they do want. It's all subjective. Many people like childish humour as much as they don't like it.
