That design looks awful to me but the movie looks like it's gonna be rad so whatever. It's how the fight looks in motion that really matters, right?

I like the purple and gold Frieza. Looks very "Emperor of the Galaxy". much cooler than the motley crew of weirdos he's facing.

His new color scheme makes me think of the Emperor from Final Fantasy II.

They made the exact same mistake in the last movie preview, so I figure it'll probably change by the time the movie finally releases. Of course, Gohan ended up going super sayian in that movie anyway so...

He couldn't pronounce it.

To some extent Toriyama must have known Goku was a poo poo dad. In Gohan's most dramatic fight he's wearing the getup of Piccolo and not the knockoff turtle pajamas like everyone else.

In Dragonball the turtle gi looked red on introduction. I like that better than orange. Oh well.

Late response but "to some extent" nothing. When Cell is kicking SS1 Gohan's rear end Piccolo goes on a several page rant about Goku being a lovely dad, and Goku's just there freaking out with the realization that he's kind of a piece of poo poo who's about to get his own son murdered because he couldn't comprehend that other people have interests other than death battle.

I finished battle of gods and it really is a pretty weird movie, all in all. DBZ is a really one-note thing, there's an overwhelming opponent, people get afraid, they train, still won't win, get an emotional power up and then win. This movie was like an pre-avengers marvel movie where the bigger world and stronger opponents are established. It also is super goofy and everybody is very non-chalant about the imminent destruction of earth.

Still, I enjoyed it. Beerus was great.

Yep. Battle of gods is basically a teaser, but a fun teaser. Like Ground Zeroes.

Also I can't believe kid Trunks said something like "Yep, she's actually my top squeeze." I've never heard a term like that.

Yet where is that woman now? Tell me, in what heave does she reside? None of them. Because no God bothered to listen or care. If that is what you think it means to be a God, then you and all your teachings are welcome to do as that poor women did. And vanish from these realms forever.

It's slang for "Of all the people/women/men, I 'date,' he/she is my favorite." It's an American slang term. It's quite a bit outdated which is part of the joke. In other words, no one "cool" would say that anymore which adds to the humor of him failing to seem cool (to the audience, not Goten who totally falls for it).

Thank you for the explanation, I thought it was something completely new, not an outdated term. For some reason I thought it would be something very foul, like "bottom bitch" or something. Hearing that from an cartoon child in an children's movie was a bit :captainpop:

Arguably, "bottom bitch" could be considered a modern, more vulgar version of the term.

That's the one thing about Toriyama that always annoys me. Gohan made a fine hero, but Toriyama himself pissed that all away in the Buu saga. He really has no one to blame but himself there

Could be my own biases talking but the way the trailer handles its shots of Vegeta I would not be surprised if this actually ends up happening. Battle of the Gods already broke tradition by ending with Goku losing, could we end up slaughtering the "Goku must always save the day" sacred cow?

Current DBZ says he'd actually stand a good chance of living, but it's Frieza and he's probably too horrible to ever get redeemed :V

All I remember is something along the lines of Goku and Vegeta won't use their super saiyan transformations in this movie, so it could be. This could also be a partial explanation as to why Freeza is actually a threat after just 4 month training.

I just realized something: Goku never killed anyone in the series, did he? The second before the Demon King Piccolo died from Goku's attack, Piccolo reincarnated himself with an egg. Since Kami and Piccolo are life linked, the fact Kami didn't die means that the Demon King Piccolo didn't really die. And, IIRC, the Demon King Piccolo and Ma Junior share the same memory and personality. Freeza survived Goku's kill blow and was killed by Trunks. Kid Buu did die, but was almost immediately revived as Uub so that could get a pass.

Edit: Opps, nevermind, I forgot: he killed Grandpa Gohan.
