DRAGON BALL Z: BATTLE OF GODS Tv Spot

The first tv spot for the all new, in-continuity (sorry Dragon Ball GT) Dragon Ball Z film, Battle of Gods touts the IMAX experience. The film opens March 30th and will be the first film screened at IMAX Digital Theaters in Japan.

By Mark Julian - 3/12/2013



The film, unlike Dragon Ball GT, will be part of the official Dragon Ball canon, with creator Akira Toriyama supplying direction on the story. The film will be set between chapter 517 and 518 of the manga, often called 'The Lost Decade' due to the 10 year time-jump following the battle with Majin Boo.

DRAGON BALL Z: BATTLE OF GODS Set For IMAX Release In Japan

SYNOPSIS: The events of Battle of Gods takes place several years after the battle with Majin Boo, which determined the fate of the entire universe. Wiss and Bills, the God of Destruction, are tasked with maintaining some sort of balance in the universe. After awakening from a long slumber, Bills is visited by Wiss and he learns that the galactic overlord Freeza has been defeated by a Super Saiyan from the North Quadrant of the universe named Goku, who is also a former student of the North Kaiō. Bills tracks down this warrior, Goku on Kaiō-sama's planet with his ally, the mysterious Wiss and challenges him to a battle. Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods explodes with dynamic action from there, featuring character such as Kuririn, Gohan, Piccolo, Vegeta, and more of the Z Warriors.

riddlemethis09 - 3/12/2013, 12:38 PM
Do videos keep getting taken down by YouTube or is there a problem with my internet/computer? Because every time I try to watch a video on CBM now, it is unavailable.
Anyways though, sounds like a good movie for DBZ fans, glad to see it kept going!
FreakingIntelligentRobertGriffin - 3/12/2013, 12:43 PM
Goku totally owns Superman.
Gusto - 3/12/2013, 12:48 PM
Pffft...in Bizzaro World maybe.
Spidey91 - 3/12/2013, 12:49 PM
^^not acording to Screwattack :P
TheOneAboveAll - 3/12/2013, 12:49 PM
HELLZ YEAH!!!!
Spidey91 - 3/12/2013, 12:50 PM
btw,I love how Goku's japanese voice is SO NOT FITTING for the character :P
RextheKing - 3/12/2013, 12:51 PM
I wouldn't trust the made up math/statistics Screwattack made for Goku.
FreakingIntelligentRobertGriffin - 3/12/2013, 12:52 PM
I ran the simulation in my head. Goku wins hands down. Even used Batmans cape to wipe his ass after shitting on Superman.
sephiroth211 - 3/12/2013, 12:53 PM
Got damn you Gusto!! That rat faced fool is not Goku!!!

This is Goku!!



Please don't make him bite your old face off.

As 53 said my mind has been blown for quite sometime now. I'm hoping that this resurgence of DBZ stuff means we are close to getting a series that will erase GT from our memories. Fingers crossed!!
Stumblin - 3/12/2013, 12:55 PM
Goku is voiced by a 77 year old lady, and you know what? He sounds like a 77 year old lady.
giannis - 3/12/2013, 12:57 PM
This got me even more pumped for Battle of Gods, but I'd really like to see a footage, which shows Goku becoming a god before the release of the animated movie!

A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.
knocturnalzen10 - 3/12/2013, 12:59 PM

Gusto - 3/12/2013, 1:04 PM

Hal Jordan makes Goku look like Perez Hilton.
Perez Hilton makes Goku look like Charles Bronson!
SupermanFan - 3/12/2013, 1:05 PM

IIIAdamantiumIII - 3/12/2013, 1:10 PM

sephiroth211 - 3/12/2013, 1:12 PM
Goku would bite Hal's and Supes' faces right off!!

SageMode - 3/12/2013, 1:16 PM
i still say Goku vs Freiza is the most epic battle On screen I've ever seen in my life on any screen.
knocturnalzen10 - 3/12/2013, 1:24 PM
@sephiroth211

MrMartinMarvel - 3/12/2013, 1:26 PM
Dragonball Z, the only anime I've ever liked.
OdinsBeard - 3/12/2013, 1:57 PM
yeeeah!
third3ye - 3/12/2013, 1:59 PM
Watching that trailer as an adult made me realize how much annoying ridiculous yelling I never noticed growing up watching DBZ.
Shadowmaster35 - 3/12/2013, 2:02 PM
favorite anime of all time!!
13echo - 3/12/2013, 2:39 PM
I knew this day would come
Deadpool702 - 3/12/2013, 2:54 PM
HELL YEAH Goku vs. Anyone has the same results. Cant wait for the English dub with Sean Schemmel!!!
Deadpool702 - 3/12/2013, 2:59 PM
And Goku would own Superman. He'd fight him admidt he's impressed, transform, then spirit bomb, it'd fail he MIGHT die,train Teleport grab Kryptonite over! Who's next [female dogs]!

People forget the main thing with sayians that was said in season 1 of dragonball z during the vegeta fight. Sayians near death experiences = more bad ass the next time they fight. Bigger and Badder. Doy!
LordOfTheZegaRealm - 3/12/2013, 3:13 PM
Get ready for the debut of super saiyan 5,6,7, and 8!

Deadpool702 - 3/12/2013, 3:21 PM
Oh and Batman is prepared for the event of Superman ever betraying Earth, so he carries Kryptonite on his belt just in case...just saying lol
Gnyah123 - 3/12/2013, 3:30 PM

give me hugh jackman for goku...and start fresh with the new DBZ saga n go in order make that shit a series like SAW or harry potter and make it 6 films
Deadpool702 - 3/12/2013, 3:36 PM
EXACTLY! Im saying skip an origins, this isnt for those who didnt care for DBZ when they were younger let's start saiyan vs. saiyan saga. Ya know what Im saiyan! Boom! Raditz crash lands on Earth opening fight scene death snake way Vegeta and Napa vs. Z fighters, Goku's return then pt. 2

Freiza
SKIP GARLIC JR.
Then Cell
Then Buu
And I'd be content with it ending there
fistofthenorthstar - 3/12/2013, 3:46 PM
we do not need anymore big studio dragon ball films unless it's animated.

i'd sooner take a dragon ball indie film, which would give us more of a dragon ball that we want than the big studios would.
animeex - 3/12/2013, 5:54 PM
Yes!
1ncredibleJ0C - 3/12/2013, 5:58 PM
The hulk will the hell outta gold hands down he has to grab him something ain't spirit bombs are not stopping that monster hulk wins hands down
supermarioworldE - 3/12/2013, 6:24 PM
This was always the problem with DBZ. The timeline moved so quickly after the cell saga. Gohan went from like 12 to 18 in a couple of episodes. Definitely why they have to go back now.

That said, FREAKIN AWESOME. DBZ is back!
Deadpool702 - 3/12/2013, 6:32 PM
Let's be realistic even if Superman got lucky and beat Goku 7 dragonballs and he's wished back to life, knowing his mistakes and how to defeat Superman.
FreakingIntelligentRobertGriffin - 3/12/2013, 8:24 PM
Goku came out from dead space many times and came out stronger.

He can easily wipe out any team.
Project8501 - 3/12/2013, 8:34 PM
sweet.
GrayMatter - 3/12/2013, 8:39 PM
Lol. I'm suprised people are only mentioning GT. I'm pretty sure that none of the movies are actually in-continuity. In fact, most of them could not have actually happened because they would be happening at the same time as events in the show. But who cares?

Also, while you can argue with their numbers, I think screwattack had it right with Superman beating Goku. Their arguement at the end that Superman has no limits while Goku is all about surpassing his, means that only one will actually hit a limit. So Goku loses.

I did like how their fight blew up the Earth though.
FreakingIntelligentRobertGriffin - 3/12/2013, 8:52 PM
Angel...Angel....Angel....Angel.....

Kageyama better do the song for this movie!
DrRockso - 3/12/2013, 9:12 PM
So....GT isn't canon?
druzod2501 - 3/12/2013, 10:12 PM
2 words: Screwattack Deathbattle
indigobolt956 - 3/13/2013, 1:11 AM
idk y people hate gt so much i liked it and it is (and i hate using this word) canon it wasnt based on manga but akira toriyami did do character designs and initial stories
I guess if this movie jump starts a new series then GT could be considered an alternate future
