Re: Post your Resurrection F Theatre Experience

Pretty good turnout at the AMC in my corner of Phoenix. I was actually a little surprised by how full it was. No technical issues during the film, though the sound on the pre-show was low enough that people were commenting, "They're going to turn it up for the actual movie, right?"

I went by myself ...

Re: Goten and Trunks, Your Opinion?

Agreed, Gaffer Tape's reply nailed it, especially the last bit regarding Muten Roshi. Brilliant.

I feel like Goten & Trunks really highlight the contrast between the old days & the Buu era. Times change, & all that's come before resulted in the world in which they grew up – a relatively peaceful ...

Re: Parts of the story you would change?

Just look at how he reacts to seeing Goten for the first time.
Goku's relationships with Gohan & Goten are pretty different, though. In spite of later absences, Goku was actually around for Gohan's early formative years, whereas Goten was already a little person by the time Goku met him. Goku ...

Re: Did Kai reignite your interest in Dragon Ball?

While I was bumming around the house post-wisdom teeth removal last fall, I started watching my old DBZ VHS collection (which mostly consists of Cell & Buu episodes). That sent me on a ...

Re: Does anyone watch Dragon Ball with you?

When I was first getting into Dragon Ball, I talked about it all the time to my best friend, so finally she started watching it with me to understand what I was talking about. Didn't take long before she was completely hooked. First year of high school, I'd stay over at her house on weekends and ...

Re: So, How Did YOU Get Into Dragon Ball?

Don't remember the exact when and how, but I think it was the same year the post-Cell episodes aired on Toonami. I'd tried watching DBZ at least once before (one of the Namek episodes) but just couldn't get into it at all. Then I picked up in interest in other anime and gave DBZ another shot when ...
