This release is so definitive that there will be footage in it that didn't even appear in Z.

+1 to FUNi.

Wow you guys are still doing this whole "true fan" thing? I'd love to see this kind of devotion to other crappy 80's cartoon shows. "YOU WATCHED THUNDERCATS THE REMAKE!? PFFFFFTTTTT YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO SNARF FANS EVERYWHERE!" Snarf fans are a disgrace to humanity at all times....

It's likely that episode 19's was kept because it was just the start of the song with no lyrics. Guess that means FUNi removed all the other ones on-purpose for the sole reason of them containing Japanese lyrics. Xenophobia much? Yep, a company that buys distribution rights to Japanese anime, redub...

Okay, so I've read through the thread and didn't see any of this covered here, so I'll go ahead and report what I learned from asking about the sets on the FUNi Forums. 1.) Luckily, FUNi does not pull a GT and change the Japanese logo in the opening to their own. That's a plus, for sure. 2.) Unfort...

While I would say they do look "cleaner," or with the appearance of less grain, I prefer the color of the Dragon Box clips. The DBox color is much better in the darker hues used in the series, as evidenced by Oolong's Communist outfit (haha) in the first example. I wonder how the DVNR will...

Why do so many people on this board have friggin' chip on their shoulder? The whining and complaining and the "pissed offedness" gets very tiring and ruins a decent discussion.

Is this post counter-intuitive? Maybe.

Two people in here told me to change my preference. I'm trying to tell them that they have no right to tell me to do that. Nobody's ( at least, I'm not ) telling you to change your preference, and there's nothing wrong with you having it. I'm just saying your preference doesn't take precedence over...

Subtitles also weren't on the Japanese Dragon Boxes. So should they not include those either? Now you're just being a moronic troll. Go ahead and take the victim mentality you so rightly love and deserve. You get angry at others for their partiality but let your own likewise blind you to the realit...

As godofchaos said, this isn't the Dragon Box. This is another company's version of it. Yep, that's why the packaging deviates so much from the original. Give me a freaking break! Their advertising for this entire release thus far has been a replication of the JPN release. Give it a rest. And I thi...

A division of the fandom's "preferences" should not take precedence over the proper treatment of the material itself. It's like if a handful of people wanted Gilbert Gottfried to voice Piccolo. They'd like it, but it'd be obnoxious, ridiculous, and all-around detrimental to the presentati...

That's probably because you pre-ordered it after the "delay".
Naw, it says it will arrive by mid-November, which is a month earlier than the supposed "delay." Probably just a goof by Amazon.

Just pre-ordered on Amazon. Haven't received any delay message.

It'd be nice if it shipped out a week early and I got it around my birthday time, which is now celebrated by me buying things for myself.

They have them, but no word on if they'll be packed with the DB movies. I'd rather have them separate, since the four DB movies are good. Wouldn't that deviate from the Dragon Box: Movies release, which would incite a riot here on Daizenshuu EX? :D I'd rather they release the movies just as Toei did.

Make it like a silent movie. No words. Just 1860s organ music and the occasional dialogue frames.

That way everybody will just stop the pointless bickering that always goes on no matter what Funi or Toei does.
I was looking for Ragtime style music. Compromise?

Entire franchise, Latino Audio, Dragon Box, who's with me? Also; out of curiosity's sake, Japanese Dialogue with Faulconer score. I know it sounds like sacrilege, but I'm curious dammit. I think I'd prefer a zombie/robot apocalypse to that second suggestion :lol: Anyway: Complete Kanzenban release;...

jjgp, while we may not see eye to eye on viewing preference, I would probably prefer to see Faulconer's dub on there for selling purposes. It pains me to say it, but I can see that more people prefer it. I guess I'll take the John Stuart Mill utilitarian approach and say include his BGM. More sales ...
