As you all know i'm a pretty huge DragonBall Z fan, and I have a number of beefs revolving battle of the Gods. (Spoilers involved)

This may be a long one... Now I loved this movie and it is by far my favourite after watching all of them, The reactions to it bug me at first people wanted SSJ God to look better, I can't disagree where as I like the colour scheme for Goku the actual transformation was too simple, SSJ3 was a grand change in appearence where as SSJG is not.

(What people Expected)

People also wanted SSJG to shit all over Bills which is just not right, here's my opinions why Goku's ass still got whooped #1 Goku was fresh to the SSJG form, he is not using it to it's full power, It's the same as his SSJ3 form I don't think by this point in the story he still has 100% control over it where as Vegeta has pushed SSJ2 to it's full limits therefore I think Vegetas powers could equal that of Goku's in SSJ3.

This also leaves room for sequels especially when we discover Whis is infact WAY more powerful than Bills lord of destruction, Next to this Bills is one of if I remember correctly 7 other Gods, of which he is one of the weakest.

I would love to see Goku Ascend to god form again and have a better understanding of it in future movies but having to ascend to this form leaves other characters in a position where they are all to weak to compete with the villains that it becomes impossible to give them a true spot light, however they did an amazing job of giving vegeta his spot light in BOG where Vegeta BEATS THE SHIT out of Bills but of course at the end of it all it was nothing compared to Bills power, I would rather see a movie where Vegeta becomes the hero however, most fans have come to like Vegeta more than anyone else and i believe after Goku & Gohan had their victories over villains vegeta deserved his on Buu but was denied it.

of course I disagree that Vegeta should be aloud to ascend to SSJG as the host must be pure of heart of which Vegeta is not.
The Movie overall was amazing and I would love a new series/Set of Movies more than anything, Vegeta deserves his spotlight, also Vegeta needs to truely be on Goku's level, I know I said he was before but he needs to be on SSJ3 just like Goku and they need a real Fight I was very dissapointed with the Buu Saga fight I believe the fight in the Saiyan Saga was much better at that point Vegeta and Goku were equal, the only thing setting them apart was Vegeta's ability to turn into the great Ape.

To add to all this Goku during the fight loses his SSJG appearence but retains all the powers and even manages to fully ascend to a SSJG once again *Appearance and powers alike* on his own which raises the question once ascended to a SSJ God will Goku always be able to tap into the power on his own?​

The only beef I had with the movie is that it made SSJ3 look low tier, I wish they made it so goku mastered SSJ3 first, just like how he mastered SSJ1 in the cell saga, before they introduced SSJG.

Lettuce beef real dog, SSJG looked disappointing as fuck. BRB going Kaio-ken and tricking my opponent that I'm in SSJG.

I liked the colour scheme but yes they could have done much more with it.

I wouldn't say this is the best of the movies, but it is still one of the better ones. I actually liked Goku's SSJG form. It was simple and Bill's was cool character. I do like that Vegeta got some good action, but I do agree he needs some more respect in future movies/series. Honestly, my only complaint with Dragonball Z/GT is that 99% of the characters from the original series became completely irrelevant. I get that Goku's the star, but damn, they don't have to make everyone else a pussy to make that clear.

I still haven't got round to DragonBall, i watched about a saga and a half of GT giving it a chance before I judge it and I felt it was just terrible I couldn't handle it >.<

I don't mind the SSJG form so much but I do think it could have been more wild instead it was a graceful transformation, I feel that Yamcha was very useless in DBZ however Krillin & Tien were always useful, for example Krillins herorics during the Frieza saga & the Saiyan Saga being his most important moments in DBZ & Tiens brave attempt to hold back Cell in the Cell Saga and even his attempt to hold back Super Buu, I believe the characters took roles as inferior powered Z fighters but were still so incredibly important as they served purposes that saved Goku in most fights.

Krillin's my favorite character so I'm pretty satisfied with his role throughout the series, even GT, he got some love, but if you ever watch Dragonball, you'll notice a huge difference. I just don't enjoy the huge power gap between Goku & everyone else. Sucks that Tien, who beat Goku in DB, just became such a background character. Yeah, he held off Cell which was cool, but Buu saga, he shows up only to be taken out of the fight by a single kick. lol And poor Yamacha, he needs no explanation. XD

Not hating on DBZ btw, still my favorite anime series, but their supporting characters could be handled differently. I don't know if you've watched Bleach, but that series does well with their cast. They have their Goku type main character, but none of the supporting characters ever look weak/useless. And they have about 20.

And about GT, it's really weird in my opinion. The traveling through space saga, is a snoozer, but once Baby shows up on Earth it becomes watchable. It's weird because it's not split up like DB/DBZ in there's no time gap between sagas. But, I think you'd enjoy the Super 17 part of the story.

I could talk about DBZ all day, but I just wanna add that I think a World Tournament movie would be great. No baddies, just all of the classic Z-Fighters battling it out. With Goku vs. Vegeta at the end obviously.:)

Yeah the later fights where Vegeta comes into GT look more enjoyable from clips i've watched on youtube but I cannot Get through those early sagas, I dislike how inferior Goku looks as a Child there, there is NO good reason that Goku needed to be a child except that the creators probably wanted people to think about Dragonball and appeal to GT because of it.

A world tournament movie would kick so much ass, have all the old characters at equal strengths roughly battling it out! oh yeah!
I am one of those people who can also talk about DBZ ALL day I have so many theories and takes on the story, So krillin is your favourite character?
Goten is mine :3 I love his youthful innocence and resemblance to Goku, Although I'm not too keen on the children being able to reach SSJ so early it kept them relevant I guess.

Does the movie assume GT never happened? Haven't seen BOG but I'm interested (everything about GT sucks child Goku was stupid)
