Re: "Why are you watching a kids cartoon show?"

Someone recently asked me what was so great about Dragonball and anime in general because from what he saw, it was just "crap kids animation like Thundercats and He-Man" and couldn't understand why an adult would watch. I could tell he was trying to annoy me but I just shrugged and said &q...

Re: If You Could Ask FUNimation Anything? Interview in The Works

How was the relationship between Viz and Funimation?

Did Funimation ever consider acquiring Dr. Slump?

Re: New series after Kai?

I would like a series or set of OVAs that went in depth on the backgrounds of secondary characters like Tienshinhan and Choatzu, Yamcha, and Krillin before they all met Goku. A series about Goten and Trunks would be interesting too

Re: A Chance Of A New DB Series?

What they could do is show characters that aren't in the spotlight. I've said this before, but, besides Goku, Vegeta, Gohan, Bulma, and Trunks, nobody really has their full backstory told. I mean, what was Lunch doing throughout everything? What was Popo doing? What was Yajirobe doing before we met...

Re: Computer animated DB film?

We live with more than just 2 dimensions, physics proves it! Well of course we do, I just don't think Dragonball looks good that way. Perfectly entitled to your opinion though. It actually can look good if it was in the hands of a decent production team. For Dragon Quest VIII, Level 5 made the best...

Re: U.S.'s Nicktoons TV Adds Dragon Ball Z Kai in May

Surprised by the news. Like some, I thought DisneyXD was going to be the one to possibly air Kai, but Nicktoons? it could work too. I don't see Cartoon Network airing. They've basically stopped airing anime and the shows they do show are done in the wee hours on Saturday, not to mention Adult Swim k...

Re: Dragon Box Z 3 Trailer & Cover Art

I haven't been paying a lot of attention lately, so excuse my confusion.

Weren't there only 2 Dragonboxes for Z in Japan? Is Funi splitting them up? :?

Re: Where did DBE fail, where the Autobots and Joes succeeded?

I think a big budget animated film would work better. Toei could pull out all the stops



I wonder if a CGI based film would work....

Re: Where did DBE fail, where the Autobots and Joes succeeded?

Poor advertising Bad script Terrible special effects Characters' personalities re-written Didn't stay true to the original story just didn't appeal to the fan base Dragonball is a series that would've fared better with a big budget animated or CGI based film. It just won't work with the live action ...

That's all I've really gotten out of it, if they're going to do something like this they might as well go for it all the way.
That's exactly what I've been thinking. I feel it would've been better to just reanimate the show
