An episode of Reboot did a send-up to DBZ and in South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, there's a big spoof of DBS wherein Cartman does a riff on the kamehameha and super saiyan.

Terminology question

I see a lot of talk around the boards about people's DBZ fansubs/bootlegs. My question is what's the difference? On a fundamental level I know what each is, and I understand the anger towards bootlegs, but it seems "fansubs" aren't as wrath-inducing. Aren't they really the same thing? And in the an ...

Good, comprehensive review in the podcast, but it seems like there was a LOT of nit picking (i.e- the design of the box itself, the way the episodes summaries were listed, etc.). It got to a point where it just seemed like FUNi bashing just for the sake of FUNi bashing.

Picked my copy up at Best Buy yesterday and have watched a few of the episodes, and I have to admit I like it. Everyone agrees that the widescreen is a goofy move, but everything else about it I dig. Hell, this is the first time I've been able to buy DBZ in bulk (besides my fansubs I got more than a ...

This is by far the best podcast yet. It sounded great, and I liked that there was a great deal of meat to the conversation. Please consider doing more in depth discussions like this in the future.

Cool to see that I'm not the only one really annoyed by rude aisle readers. I'm suddenly feeling a sense of validation for my anger...
