I'd be interested in knowing how dumbing down the dialogue, giving characters exaggerated cartoonish voices and exchanging beautifully orchestrated music with soulless techno-rock mixes "improves" the show. Really.
Sang it, brotha! SANG IT!!!

Re: Chances of Dragon Boxes getting the UUE treatment?
FUNi told us on their Twitter that DBox Z 4 would hit in September, so we know that at least.
You've gotta be shitting me. That's a way longer wait between releases than there was between volumes 2 & 3. What's the hold-up? The post-production on the show is already done-- they just need to dump ...

Re: Dragon Boxes $26.99 on Amazon.com
So... am I right in assuming that this price cut is a red flag for overall sales (or lack thereof)? Should we be concerned that we might not even get the remaining Dragonboxes as a result?
For the love of God, someone please tell me I'm just being paranoid

Re: Dragonbox VS Orange Brick Sets....a few questions
Questrider, your fandom of the Faulconer score aside, I can't recommend the Dragon Boxes enough. The quality of the content in the Dragon Boxes is unmatched here in the US and highly-coveted in Japan. (Seriously... the original Japanese Dragon Boxes cost nearly $2000 altogether). To put it mildly ...

With all due respect, DBZ is a 20-year-old, hand-drawn cartoon, presented (as it was intended) in 4:3. That being said, it's not the type of thing that demands a Blu-ray release. Don't get me wrong, I love Blu-ray, I have a PS3 and would totally dig it if they came out with an affordable set, but ...

Normally, I'd be right there with you all nitpicking about the bitrates, compression and audio fidelity, but really... should it come to a slight bit of compression, I don't think anybody here will be able to discern it. We all know we're getting top-quality anyway, so why worry about it?

Damn. You guys are really building this up for me. I guess I never really understood just how coveted the R2 DragonBoxes were. Here I am, just excited that I can finally own the entirety of the series in un-meddled-with 4:3 with Japanese audio... but you guys are helping me to really appreciate the ...

Now, as far as I can tell, these DragonBoxes will NOT be limited releases that become more valuable than gold, correct?
And yeah, the price is a little steep when compared to the Orange Bricks, but considering the content, I will inevitably shell out for them (hoping for some good deals on Amazon ...

DBZ Sound Effects?
I have a major video project coming up soon, and suffice it to say: there will be battles. As such, I would like to incorporate many of the lovely sound effects from my favorite anime. I see (hear?) DBZ sound effects being used in other video projects and Newgrounds animations all the time, so that ...

I don't see how anyone could be FOR this movie. You realize that an adaptation on a property as colorful, comedic, whimsical and FOREIGN as Dragonball will most likely not get a movie adaptation as high-quality as Batman Begins or X2 -- you should expect something more in the area of . . . Mortal ...

Uh... I think we can determine that is not the case, based on the "effort" they've put into their previous releases.Mystery Person X wrote:You know, authoring the DVDs themselves actually does take time and effort.
And who gives a fuck if it's delayed? Nobody in their right mind should be buying it!
