Re: New Sand Land project announced

I've béen watching the show dubbed in English and will most likely give it a rewatch immediately after I'm gone thru all the initial 6 episodes. It is usually a slow burn for me if I were to binge thru a series like that but this show, I breezed through fairly quick. It's amazing. It's peak Akira T...

Dragon Ball Z board game with sound FX

Turns out this one came out 2009. Anyone got more info on this? Apparently, it is called 激戰超戰士 天下一武道會. Tried googling and couldn't find much.

Re: Dragon Ball Theme Park

Dragon Ball does evoke Middle Eastern imagery from time to time. I do remember reading that the Arabic dub of DBZ was heavily censored and tried to downplay the references to Eastern religion and mythology, but I don’t typically hear about Muslim countries having some taboo against fantasy elements...

Re: Akira Toriyama Passes Away.

Hong Kong comic book legend Tony Wong speaks up about Akira Toriyama. I'll translate this one later. Tony Wong is the guy behind "Dragon Tiger Gate" and also one of the early publishers of Dragon Ball when it was first introduced into Hong Kong. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/nNUwm333asG...

Re: Justin Chatwin apologizes for Dragonball Evolution

As for Pacific Rim, Guillermo del Toro was fucking awesome. He even confirmed to me face to face that he is a fan of Doraemon. Even debated how Nobita is a useless character. Doesn't even remotely surprise me to hear that: Del Toro has by all accounts always been an incredibly down to earth, genuin...

It's not everyday you get to see apology coming from writer and actor. I dunno: reportedly for many, many years after the movie came out, anytime a fan told George Clooney that they saw Batman & Robin in theaters, he would actually refund them their ticket money out of his own pocket. :lol: Hon...

I also liked how Stephen Chow, producer of Dragon Ball Evolution, didn't even mention Dragon Ball Evolution and simply reposted the Japanese promotional movie poster for his movie "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" which is actually designed and sketched by Toriyama himself. You ...
