Really, Dragon Ball has NEVER been about the story, at least IMO. Dragon Ball has a much heavier focus on it's characters, which I find to be a more interesting aspect than the story in any medium. This contrived Deus Ex Machina stuff has been around for a while with the Dragon Balls, Namekian Dragon Balls, Zenkais, the ROSAT, etc.

I don't even recall slow-motion being used in DBZ. Maybe a couple times.

It was used in the Majin Vegeta fight in the anime, I think.

And perhaps an amazing story wasn't expected, but

First things first, I don't understand why we have to use spoiler tag inside a thread that already has a warning for spoilers. The title itself has warning for spoilers. :unsure:

Anyway, why all the Goku haters?

For all the people that already know me from Neoseeker, I'm not a Goku fanboy, in fact Vegeta is #1 in my favourite Dragon Ball character, but Goku is the face of Dragon Ball just like Hulk Hogan or Stone Cold was when carrying the mantle of the "man" in the WWE.

Goku has;

* Likeability.
* Fun, easy going personality.
* Saiyan heritage.
* Work ethic.
* Most important to the eyes of executes - marketability in Japan and North America and Europe.

^ all those reasons might sound like I'm a Goku fanboy, but I'm not. Take a long hard look at the list and analysis the manga of Dragon Ball and compare it to other anime franchises.

Do you see my point?

In the manga, Akira Toriyama had pretty much full control, he was enthusiastic about his work, along with his editors, they made Dragon Ball the pop culture it is today along with the fans supporting the product (merchandise, dvd sales, manga sales, etc...) off course, but Goku was the hero that was sailing the ship towards success. From the World Tournament arc with Master Roshi training him to King Piccolo arc and Piccolo Junior arc all the way to Cell arc where Goku admits his inferiority of two fronts and pass's the torch.

Truth of the matter, Goku in the manga lost quiet a few as well.

*I don't care about Toei's movies and GT*

1. He lost to Master Roshi and Tien in the worlds martial arts tournament.
2. He's inferior to Cell and Gohan during the Cell Games.
3. Truth of the matter, it wasn't Goku that killed Pure Boo.

My point is, with the manga Toriyama had full control [or almost full control unless he comes up with an idea the editor dislikes], anything outside of the original run of the manga can be consider as cash grab. EVEN if you're one of the few that agree that Battle of Gods is canon, you still have to realize that box office sales is the only thing that matters to Toei and since Toei pays everyone bills that was working on the project, they have influence of who shines and who doesn't.

I can almost guarantee you that if people started to buy Piccolo merchandise, and the sales go through the roof, the exec's at Toei will look at their fiscal report and see the jump in sales for Piccolo, they might have Piccolo get a huge power boost.

People, you don't need to keep putting spoiler tags, If what you guys are saying is true, there isn't much to hype up at this point.

But yeah, this sounds like an OVA and less like a movie. It's like a a huge What-If Scenario involving Freeza. It's a good thing that the bar for DBZ movies wasn't set very high so no matter how bad this movie might get, there's always certain to be at least something enjoyable. It's my same thing with the Boo Arc for me. It's a terrible arc, filled with plotholes and inconsistencies galore, but its popcorn entertainment.

They needed a way to kill off Vegeta and give Goku the spotlight back somehow.

Vegeta so should be getting the kill at the end.
But then Goku wouldn't be getting it, and we can't have that.

Spoiler tags in a spoiler thread labelled that it's full of spoilers makes no sense to me.

Not saying you should put everything in spoiler tags, just major plot-lines. Yes, people are warned about spoilers in the title but some of them come in here anyway to check news, so I feel like the very newest news should be in spoiler tags just in case.
