The backdrop is a lavish birthday celebration for Goku's longtime friend Bulma, at which said Catmandude searches for the "Super Saiyan God" in his premonition. Our plucky brain damaged hero Son Goku challenges the God of Destruction, Lord Beerus, a purple Egyptian cat-man who still looks more believable than Mike Meyers in that The Cat in the Hat live-action torture.

But trust me, in Japan, some people have actually heard of it, somewhat.ĭragon Ball Z: Battle Of Gods, for those of you not privileged to be a part of this little niche of anime fandom, is the fourteenth movie under the DBZ title, and the first in almost two decades to be released. I only go to see the most obscure works to ensure that my experience will be unfettered by mainstream appeal, so you'll have to forgive me if you're scratching your head not knowing what I speak of. It draws heavily from some little Japanese comic from the 80s and 90s. It's kind of an independent film, I doubt most of you are that familiar with the franchise. I was at a theater in the evening, a great big theater that, despite its size, was well off the beaten path, and despite the high price, I enjoyed myself because the movie I was there to see was a little art house movie called Dragon Ball Z: Battle Of Gods. There's not enough napkins in the world to wipe that butter from your hands, it's like digging into a fresh corpse and soaking yourself in a gaping bloody wound of. An ocean of popcorn will just make you never want to see that snack ever again. The next time the person at the concession stand tells you that for fifty more cents you can get the large popcorn, you spit in their face and karate chop them in the throat, folks.

Or really, my wallet, because my decision was to spend $10.50 to watch a movie I'd already seen, plus the bullshit price of impulse buy concessions, because like any American, I can't even go an hour and a half without stuffing my face with butter and salt and washing it down with sugar water. One that affected both his head and heart. Last night, yours truly made a truly momentous decision. "Great Flaming Dragon Balls! A Theatrical Experience!! Penguin Truth Enjoys A DBZ Dub!!!"
