Pretty much. If there's 1 thing GT was worth making it was SSJ4 design which is just stunning on every level. No amount of explanation will make SSJG design good. It is just the most basic recolor possible.

<br abp="748"><br abp="749">Battlefield Earth and Batman & Robin has enjoyable things in it and I give them a real chance. The movie is still shit. Most people that dislike GT seen the show and have their reasons why they don't like it.
Never saw Battlefield Earth, but I've seen Batman and Robin, and there's only one thing remotely good about it, the parts with Alfred are kind of sweet, but other than that it's a garbage film. GT is by far a more interesting series, even if only due to the ending alone.
The biggest truths aren't original. The truth is ketchup. It's Jim Belushi. Its job isn't to blow our minds. It's to be within reach.

I didnt hate GT I even liked it, SSJ4 looked badass in the least. It had that sun wukong vibe to it.

the fight scenes were slow and weren't consistent with the powers they had in DBZ. Sin Shenron tries to kill Goku with a damn clock. In fact, it seemed like the power levels went progressively downhill, Super 17 had better combat feats than Sin Shenron lol.
