I agree with Zimmer and Williams as good choices. I loved the score from Jurassic Park, especially the way he conducted the reprise of the main theme over the scene where Dr. Grant first sees the dinos. It made it feel like you just walked into God's paradise and the music made that scene perfect. It lifted you up so high that when things went wrong later on, it made the terror even worse. That's what a good musical score can do for a film. It acts like punctuation for the visuals of each scene and William's work definitely does that.
I have two more I would like to add to the list. First is Michael Kamen. Not only did he write the scores for the Die Hard series and the Leathal Weapon series. he also wrote lovely scores for Band of Brothers (TV) and Mr. Holland's Opus. He also did the score for Iron Giant and X-Men and Conducted the Phillidelpha Sympony Orchestra in concert with Metallica. I think he may do well with a DBZ score. Action music, touching music where needed and a touch of irreverent rock where needed.
The next is Howard Shore. He composed the score for Lord of the Rings and The Aviator. Both wonderful works. He wrote some fun dramatic pieces for Dogma and the score for the Cell and Philadelphia. Both of those works were well woven into the stories and accented them beautifully. I think he would also do a fine job with a DBZ score.
