It seems you really haven't looked beyond the surface of DBZ. First off, it's not about guys trying to destroy the world, and some guy training to be stronger. DBZ takes place in the manga about Volume 17-42. That means there are 16 other volumes of manga that aren't in DBZ that you can look at (Dragon Ball) to find what it's all about...A Boy named Goku.
As for discovering that it dragged on, you must not have actually watched the show. It's really quite intriguing, or you never actually watched from the beginning. I see more often than not, people tuning in during the Freeza saga, completely lost in what's going on, and say that it's complete crap because it's "boring".
As for the animation, I dunno what to say. I can always point to Eva which had tons of still images, and loved to have still images with people talking in the background (only to switch over when the person we focused on decides to talk).
Lastly, I checked a little while back, I don't think any of the longest fights even break 20 episodes, let alone 30.
