Official On-Going DBZ 2013 Movie Thread: "Battle of Gods"

[GS7X7]

For starters, Goku didn't win. It's rare and that's why I really liked it.

Goku haven't won since Freeza. It's not rare. He literally tells Cell "I GIVE UP". Vegeta beat the shit out of Goku.

Maybe people mean it's rare in movies. As Goku did save the day in all of them except movie 9, 10 (arguable), and 11.

Everybody helped power him up in Movie 8, including Vegeta. Goku may have hogged all the credit but Brolly would have made Goku his ***** without Vegeta around.

TOEI, we want more movies like this

What's with the picture of a furry golden goku fighting birusu? Was a concept or fan art?

Akira Toriyama helped. He said he had to re-write the movie. One can only imagine what Toei had in mind

I think it's nice having AT return to the world of Dragon Ball. It's not uncommon for a creator to return back to their own franchise after years later. Look at Evagelion for example.

[Aoi]

I thought the film really nailed the right vibe. Without Toriyama's special writing talents, I cringe at what this could have become.

When did Akira Toriyama leave?

HOLY FUCK! I just watched the movie and I must say it was BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!! Definitely the best Dragon Ball movie out there times 8,001. I can certainly see power discrepancies though . I watched the Vegeta vs Beers fight entirety and I must say it seems he was able to maintain that kind of power for an abnormally long time. I also don't know why he able to tank a punch from Beers when Gohan was one shot. I mean I guess his guard could been down but still, I don't know why he would suppress himself further after taking down Gohan... I have to say, it seems like Goku can turn into the actual God form of his own free will. That would be cool since I love that aura and SSJ God's overall design. Man I'm geeking out right now .

Did Birus fly through planets after eating Wasabi

Damn...how big is Birus' castle or are those small planets?

Early fanart. Golden ssj4 as ssjg was a popular fan-theory early on (even the one I designed prior to learning what ssjg actually looked like--while he didn't have the fur, definitely had hair kinda like that).

The original official version of ssjg prior to Toriyama's rewrite of Watanabe's script was supposed to be super-bulky, have golden hair in-between ssj3 and ssj4, and wear a cape or cloak.

And I am so, so, soooo glad it got changed. Oi.

...Though I wouldn't say no to some hilariously grim-serious 'awesome' looking fan art of this proposed design either. For the LOLz.

Sounds like something from DBAF, Toei, and Youtube Fanboys(Overall) wet dream. As Mac said. It was a God Broly. But his name would be Goku. I would like to see a fan picture of it. Just to see what COULd have been. But I really want a official original design.

[Ryuman]

Yeah, it would be very cool indeed if they let Yamamuro's various concept drawings (Or at least, one of them) for SSG be made public in some way.

He was done with Dragon Ball after it ended in 1995. I don't think he did anything new with DB after the 90's other then character designs in GT and the Mecha Freeza design in Super DBZ. There was the Kanzenban which was nothing new than the new ending with Ubb.

I was kind of surprised it wasn't an extra on the home release (or if it is on there, it's on that 2nd disc I can't play because it's dvd instead of blu ray and I have not yet gotten around to figuring out how to work-around for it). They put all the finalized character sheets (including the final version of ssjg's design) as extras on the main disc.

[perucho1990]

Bills can also dance, how come no one mentioned it?

As I said before, seems that Vegeta went to the Fairy Tail verse and learned to use PoF(Power of Feelings)

If u guys noticed it, PoF is the most broken ability in Anime....

Bills was an awesome character, probably Top 2 in villains of DBZ(cannon and non cannon)

To quote TFS Bardock...

NO! NONE OF THAT! SHAME ON YOU!

Even so it was still Goku who won and saved the day.

Damn...how big is Birus' castle or are those small planets?

Birus looked like a small line flying through them. I have no idea how big or small the planets were that he destroyed.

What are the bonus features on the standard Bluray?
