So on a whim I decided to watch the Funimation redub of Raditz's arrival with subtitles on to see how accurate it was. It wasn't too bad in the beginning but it slowly moved into the usual dub tactics of needlessly changing lines and adding dialogue whenever possible. Also weird errors like Raditz s...

I ended up getting the first double feature to check it out. It's much better than I was expecting but maybe a bit too bright on some parts. Still a nice addition to my collection, I'll probably get a couple more later on.

Thanks for your insight on this everyone.

I was considering buying some of the bluray double features but was unsure about some of their aspects. Can someone please tell me if the remastering process for the movies was any different than the one for the orange bricks? And also if the process of cropping the footage was done by frame or if t...

So in the dub it's Beerus and in the subtitles it's Beers. I was hoping we'd get a consistent name. Maybe we can get a statement from Simmons one of these days as to why he choose Beers. Also both ENG and JP versions use English versions of Hero and Cha-La-Head-Cha-La because that's just what Toei g...

I bought it from ebay. The seller neglected to mention that it didn't come with the Dragon Book. So I got a full refund and got to keep the set.

I'd buy Dragon Book one from you since that's the only one of the sets I own that I don't own.

That's so over prized... I remember it being quite cheap when new in Japan. I've done some looking around and it seems like it's going for 30+ dollars (not factoring in foreign shipping rates) any other place. There aren't many listings up and it seems like it's been out of print for awhile. At lea...

Hey just thought I'd give everyone a heads up. That the "Special Selection DVD" is on ebay and ending today.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Dragon-Ball-Z-Special-Selection-DVD-Japanese-Japan-Import-/181307238171?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a36c0e71b This DVD has Dragon Box versions of bo...

Well there goes my plan to use the blu-ray sets to make up for the Dragon Box 2 set I don't have.

Only way to the get the majority of those episodes uncut and in 4:3 in America and it's the most expensive one. Figures.

Just finished watching the movie and I loved it. Birus has just become one of my new favorite Dragon Ball villains. I like his extremely lax way of handling things, it's like Freeza only he doesn't let his little fits get the better of him. I kinda felt like Goku achieved Super Saiyan God a little t...

Simple. The mass death and destruction during the Piccolo Daimao arc erased most of the records concerning the Tenkaichi Tournament except maybe the winners and the majority of the people who attended said tournaments probably died during Daimao's reign. As a result by the time Z comes along, after ...

So I was planning to buy the original Dragon Ball movies to complete my DVD collection when I spotted a review online for Funimation's 4-pack of the movies on amazon. According to the review the "re-mastered" version of movie 2 has some frame rate issues with it apparently being cut from 2...

I believe the first bilingual DVDs I owned were the 3 Broly movies in the "Triple Threat" box set. Back in the day I didn't have access to a whole lot of anime so in order to maximize my viewing experience I would often watch whatever I could get in both english and Japanese. I also did th...

Depends on the era. Original DB/DBZ/GT I prefer Nozawa ultimately. I'll always have a nostalgic love for Sean and whoever voiced him in the Ocean dub but she does the best job in the original shows. when it comes to Kai however I'm gonna have to go with Sean. I haven't been a big fan of Nozawa's mor...

So I looked at the relationship chart in the booklet and it's really weird when you look at it closely. For one thing we have some original character names instead of dub ones ex: Lunch instead of Launch, Urunai Baba instead of Fortune Teller Baba and Gyumao instead of Ox King. I find it funny that ...

So, now that this is out I can safely say this release is garbage. FUNimation, why did you think this was worthwhile over a release of Dragon Box the Movies or a Dragon Ball Dragon Box. Just like most of the people who were interested and then weren't, if the movies were uncut, I'd buy it for the b...

Found this on Youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DW-i6NbPEI also, It is confirmed that the movies are edited right? Just got mine a bit ago. Just popped in the movie disc and started Tree of Might up. It started out with Rock the Dragon, has a replacement score and a weird episode title with a...

I'll send ya a PM too.

Dragon Box 2 looks mighty tempting.

1 does too since the one I recently received from ebay was missing the dragon book (not told to me by the seller) and was much more banged up than he told me.

I wonder if they'll use the first versions of the first few episodes.

You know the ones with lines like "I smell death in the air" that were re-dubbed for the home release and re-runs.

Man I'm really hoping they just forgot to mention online play or something, since that was the main reason a lot of people wanted Budokai 3 re-released in the first place.

Hopefully the will elaborate on that sometime.

Still looking like a pretty good collection.
