Gohan getting clowned is always allowed and indeed advisable. You have to have Gohan get clowned to show that it's not Saiyan blood that makes you top-tier, but the contents of your will.

Counterpoint: Broly was pretty metal in the first film when he talked, in-fact it's strange how by the time of the 2nd film he can't even speak anymore.

Actually Broly is boring and lame. He's just an unstoppable force of nature who doesn't really have much going for him. Janemba is far superior in that it has the fat giant version but also Super Janemba which seems much more menacing and there are creative visuals like how it teleports.

I'm wondering what'll be ranked higher world's strongest or fusion reborn. They're both really good dbz movies. Janemba's the best non-canon villain though, he has a really interesting fighting style. Also you can hurt him by swearing at him!

Thing is, though, it makes sense as he is the largest bro in the world. The alpha bro. On the other hand, his fighting style is very brawly...

The thing that is forgotten about the fucker is that he's described by his father as 'a perfect saiyan' in terms of outlook-which means he's an utter bastard, just like Vegeta and Nappa were.

The action scene where Broly beats the crap out of everyone is great but the build-up to it really drags on too much and the movie is way too dull and humorless for its own good.

The dub soundtrack is hilarious though, they literally just filled it with buttrock

I like Broly for one reason, his fight scenes in the first movie. The movie sucked in storytelling and just being entertaining, until like the last 15 minutes or so. For the time it came out I was in my early teens, and it was mind blowing how awesome this punch mans was.

No, but our timeline Gohan fared far better against Cell and Majin Buu, so I'd say Gohan's getting wrecked levels is more relevant to how cool it needs to make a character at the time. The Chris Jericho of DBZ characters, if you will

I have recently started to want to see a world where Vegeta becomes stronger than Goku and so he re-dedicates his life to being smarter than Gohan.

I think the funny part is that Vegeta's always been shown to be pretty smart, I could totally see him going blow for blow against Gohan in academics.

He's tactically smart, yes, but there are different types of intellect. He can come up with a cunning plan and lead a battle, but can he conceptualize a five dimensional circle?

The guy was educated as a prince on a planet that was part of an empire spanning the known galaxy and has been piloting star ships since he was old enough to murder whoever he landed near.

Meanwhile Gohan was pressured by his mom to study and that's about all we have to go on there.

He apparently wrote some kind of scientific book on ki and energy manipulation so I guess he's a scholar in kung-fu.

"Go on until you're stopped."
Unified Punching Theory. So basically a double major in physics and physical education.

So, basically, it seems like Gohan is getting the Yamcha treatment, in that he's becoming irrelevant to fights but isn't allowed to fade out of the show with dignity?

I wouldn't really say that, since he did beat up Super Ginyu, who they made a big deal out of. Technically that's his first win since Cell.

LOWTAX'S SPINE FUND

Yeah, unlike Resurrection "F" (where he gets one-shot by Freeza with no flair whatsoever, making him look stupidly weak), here he gave a great fight to TaGinyu, far stronger than anyone else on the human team, and Freeza went for torture rather than a one-hit kill so it looks far more dignified than his Yamcha-level performance in both that movie and BoG.

And Gohan's studying a Difficult Book, I'm not sure how that isn't enough info for you. If you consider Online canon, though, he'll later tell the world that Ki exists, and katchin can be cut, making swords immensely popular thanks to Goten and Trunks in spite of Future Trunks constantly proving his sword was completely worthless during his time in the show.

Eh, I didn't think he was a joke in Resurrection F. There's worse fates than getting worfed by Freeza and he did well for himself until then, going out of his way not to kill anybody, successfully.

Okay, fair enough. And yeah, I guess Broly is a little more metal than I give him credit for in the first one.

Although now I'm curious. He curbstomps post-time chamber Goku, Trunks and Gohan, who all...sorta held their own against Perfect Cell to varying degrees. So is he stronger than Cell or SSJ2 Gohan? (oh god did I just start powerlevels chat forgive me :barf:)

Cell was holding back pretty significantly until Gohan went SSJ2. Broly probably is around or a little stronger then Perfect Cell, but he's definitely not even close to SSJ2 Gohan, maybe Super Perfect Cell.
