It could also have happened if Android 16 successfully Self Destructed.

That's precisely why ordinary men pursue the concept of perfection, it's infatuation. But ultimately I have to ask myself "What is the true meaning of being perfect?" and the answer I came up with was nothing. Not one thing. The truth of the matter is I despise perfection! If something is truly perfect, that's IT! The bottom line becomes there is no room for imagination! No space for intelligence or ability or improvement! Do you understand? To men of science like us, perfection is a dead end, a condition of hopelessness. Always strive to be better than anything that came before you but not perfect! Scientist's agonize over the attempt to achieve perfection! That's the kind of creatures we are! We take joy in trying to exceed our grasp, in trying to reach for something that in the end, we have to admit may in fact be unreachable!"

No, because Gohan and Goku would be waaay stronger than Vegeta and Trunks and it didn't look like it in this movie.
I'm re-watching Dragon Ball GT in full on my blog. Check it out if you're interested in my thoughts on the series as I watch through it!

It's difficult to compare their strength when the villian they're up against is extremely overpowered. Powerful enough to take tank all of their attacks, knock most of them out in one hit, and take a Kamehameha to the face at point blank range, then laugh it off like he was tickled. lol.

They're all going to get bulldozered the same way, and their performance differences would be subtle.

Also, 16's explosion seemed like it was set to kill all of them as well. I'm pretty sure 16 even said something along the lines of "I'm sorry to take you all down with me."

I normally go along with the 10 day break theory. To me it makes the most sense due to Gohan's height and some of the "normal" facial expressions they're making while transformed.
