Nearly all the movies copied an arc to some extent and a few were more blatant rip-offs than movie 4. (Movies 5, 6, and 7 namely.)
There just wasn't enough backround and character depth to Slug for my tastes
Far more depth and background to him than, say, Bojack. Or Tullece, or Dr. Willow... or Jenemba.
and how weak they made Goku out to be for a point in which he'd supposedly done his 100X gravity training.
What the hell? Um... how was he made 'weak'? That makes absolutely zero sense.
but the ending of the battle killed my chances of loving it; I mean a Genki-dama gathered from only a little solar energy that finishes off someone as powerful as Slug just wasn't as believable a finish as Goku's Piccolo Daimaô finish, I would of prefered a Chou Kamehame-Ha at the least.
So, a Spirit Bomb that wipes out a horribly injured and weak Slug that Goku thought was ALREADY DEAD is less believable than Goku punching a hole through a guy that can regenerate? Sure, whatever.
Dude, why are you biting my head off about it? I'll try and explain my reasoning right now.
About the character depth comment, I never said Slug had less character depth than anyone else, what I meant was it wasn't as informative and well telling IMO. I mean Bojack was trapped in a star by the 4 Kaios because he wanted to concur the galaxy, the 4 Kaios teamed up and sealed him in a star, he was released because Goku destroyed Kaio and his planet when Cell self detonated. You're telling me Slug's "He's a mutated Namekian that survived Namek's holocaust and iss more evil than even Piccolo Daimao" backround is better?
Goku seemed weak to ME because of how easily Slug beat the hell out of him when he was supposed to be at full power and freshly healed from a near death experience with the planetoid, yet he gets his ass owned by Slug who's only in his base form. Slug wasn't even a Super Namekian, Goku had supposedly been powerful at this point to handle Freeza, see what I mean? He couldn't he scratch Slug, IMO before he went Qausi SSJ, he quite weak compared to how he could of fought at that point in the series.
Concerning my disliking of the Genki-dama from just the sun being used, that's mainly due to the fact that Goku had already used it in the past two movies, twice in one of them, and I was a bit tired of seeing a less powered version being used to defeat Slug, as I said, I would of rather seen a Chou Kamehame-Ha being used since Goku's power was restored and Slug (as you pointed out) was weakened enough to be vunerable to it.
