It's also an artistically better dub, even if Funimation's old Z dub was the more accurate product Funimation's Kai dub would still be the more enjoyable product.TheMightyOzaru wrote:Sigh... When are people gonna learn that Kai is objectively better than Z, at least from the American standpoint =/?

Some of those people in your comment sections are morons. They prefer Clark Kakakent over Son Goku. If I wanted to watch Superman I would go watch Superman TAS or JL.

Re: What is funny but dumb things you heard a Db fan say?
Well I thought the actor should have played Android 18 instead of Freeza. But you have to admit even through Freeza has a super girly voice in Korean Dub(s) but she a much better actor then Linda Young. But my honest opinion is that they should not have cast a women for him. Just in case you're wondering my favorite voice actor is Goku(Tooniverse dub) and Vegeta's Champ dub. Funny cause they're from the same person but the voice sounds so differ. In terms of voices I'll give Korean Z a 3/5 maybe 6 -7 /10 for Champ dub. The toonizerse dub a 8/10. The Kai Korean dub(If I'm correct there is only one which is Champ) is a 7.5/10. But still a better dub overall.SSJ4 Furanki wrote:Since you're Korean, what's your opinion on Freeza having an even more female voice than Linda Young in the dub?TheGmGoken wrote:Korean Kai was better then Korean Z.

Re: What is funny but dumb things you heard a Db fan say?
Yeah, from the clips I saw Korean Freeza was much better than Mrs. Young's. I like Vegeta's Champ voice it sounds pretty close to Horikawa if he were to speak Korean. Not sure which Korean dub, but there was one where Goten sounded exactly like Nozawa, it was crazy. It'd be weird here in America to have different dubs just based on channels, but that's pretty cool. I liked both Champ's and Tooniverse's Goku's.TheGmGoken wrote:Well I thought the actor should have played Android 18 instead of Freeza.

In Dbz Kai(Champ Dub. Which I think so far it's only one) Gohan sounds just like a early/prime Nozawa.SSJ4 Furanki wrote:Yeah, from the clips I saw Korean Freeza was much better than Mrs. Young's.

No I mean that if the Japanese dub had "Cat loves food" "sad for youuuuuuu", the Faulconer score, voice actors learning on the job and this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7wyidD6mUk making Funimation's old Z dub the more accurate product and Funimation's Kai dub the inaccurate product Funimation's Kai dub would stiill be more enjoyable.ABED wrote:You mean if FUNi had the same actors, but just a more accurate script...ringworm128 wrote:No it wasn't, but if it was Funimation's Kai dub would still be the more enjoyable dub.ABED wrote:The Z dub was the more accurate product?

Re: What is funny but dumb things you heard a Db fan say?
I often wonder how much better the dub would've been had the only difference been a more accurate script. I'm certain that would've done wonders for the performances.

I doubt it would have made a difference, if Schemmel couldn't sell "I am the hope of the universe" I doubt he could sell "I am the Super Saiyan".

Re: What is funny but dumb things you heard a Db fan say?
It's harder to perform terrible dialog. Of course he couldn't sell "hope of the universe!" It's a terrible line. Plus, one line does not a good performance make.ringworm128 wrote:I doubt it would have made a difference, if Schemmel couldn't sell "I am the hope of the universe" I doubt he could sell "I am the Super Saiyan".

Re: What is funny but dumb things you heard a Db fan say?
The actors not be able to sound that great was a result of them being green not because of the dialogue. Just compare the 99 dub with the remastred dub, Sabat could sell "we're all doomed, we're dooomed!" far better then he could in 99 and Sonny Strait could say "h..he's too strong" without breaking into what sounds like a Mexican accent. Even the "oh no it's Vegeta. It can't beeeeee!" guy sounds better in the UUE/season sets dub. So even if more accurate scripts did make a different it wouldn't have been a noticeable one.

Re: What is funny but dumb things you heard a Db fan say?
I never said that was the only reason. Of course being green was a big reason but even good seasoned actors can turn in bad performances if the dialog is terrible, or just too on the nose (eg Spider-Man or Smallville). The dialog wasn't just bad, it was attrocious. If they got the same scripts now as they did then as well as the same direction, they would be better, but it would still stiffle their performances. Aside from lack of voice acting experience, they lacked a knowledgable director and a quality script.
I'll add the addendum of a director that didn't require the actors to sound like their Ocean counterparts. The more Sabat shed his impression of Drummond, the better he became.
Is the "it can't beeeee" guy the same actor?

Basically, it was an offensive term during WW2, and has retained a negative connotation since then.
