Re: Unofficial Official GIF Thread (+WebMs!)

I always thought these cel-based scaling effects looked really cool: http://i.imgur.com/wF7RJjO.mp4 This episode had a few of them. I'd love to know how they achieved these before they started digitally manipulating cels (like in a few shots in Z movie 12). Did they have the Cell cels (heh) on a gl...

Re: Ideas Don't Matter, Execution Matters

Deciding to push Piccolo to the background was a horrible and unfair idea but I will say that they executed it fairly well. What do you mean by unfair? The whole last arc of DB was building up to Piccolo, and while he had a good run as a villain, instantly introducing Vegeta kicked Piccolo to the c...

Re: Original Manga Colored Pages in Full Color Edition

I prefer the original color pages as well but there really was no good way to handle it. I think ideally we would have seen all pages colored with the same kind of dyes but that would have taken ages (and thus would have been very expensive).

Re: Digital vs Tangible

I can see where you're coming from, but personally I still think you're over playing the inconveniences. Remembering what episode is on what disc isn't that hard, and usually with boxsets you get a guide booklet anyway. And I was more talking about the time it takes you to open the app, type out wh...

Re: Digital vs Tangible

Yeah, but it's 30 seconds. Even if there's a quicker option it's not like it's some insufferable amount of time. Really what are you going to do with that time? Not to mention selecting a movie and waiting it to load would probably take a similar amount of time anyway. No way do load times for digi...

Re: All purpose headcannon's

Even though I know (suspect?) it was made up piecemeal over the course of years, the role of Gods in the universe seems very logical to me. Kamisama exists to identify worthy warriors on their planet and escort them to the afterlife, where they are trained further by higher deities with other great ...

Re: Digital vs Tangible

Also I find the "inconveniences" of physical media to be completely over exaggerated, It only takes about 30 seconds to change a disc and thin DVD and Blu Ray cases don't take up that much space. And if you have the cash to buy that much stuff you can probably also afford a second or thir...

Re: Digital vs Tangible

Tangible for books, digital for video. The experience of reading off a screen is very different from reading off a page, but there is no difference in the experience between watching something off of a DVD and watching it off of a hard drive except for the inconvenience of having to change discs. Lo...

Re: Dragon Ball: Anime or Manga?

Manga all the way. I haven't watched the anime since it first aired stateside. To me Dragon Ball is a comic book with some animated movies and TV specials.

Re: Biggest retcon in DragonBall?

It's not a huge retcon, but the change from "Saiyans are entrepreneurs whose planet was destroyed by a meteor" to "Saiyans were employed by Freeza, who destroyed their planet" is one that always stands out to me.

Re: Is there anyone that stopped or decide not to watch Super?

I have zero interest in it.

To me, Dragon Ball is the original 42 volumes of the manga. I enjoy some of the movies, and some of the filler, but the further away from those 42 volumes it drifts the less interest I have.

Re: This is probably why Toriyama "forgot" about Lunch...

I never thought her absence was conspicuous enough to warrant deeper investigation. Her running off after Tenshinhan seemed pretty reasonable and I never questioned it.

Re: Wishes and ideas for a return to 2.5D games

I just want a deeper move pool, but without splitting characters into eras like the Tenkaichi games did (although having Breakthroughs that preset to different eras would be fun). The thing that's apparent after playing a game like Mortal Kombat (which has a similar style of gameplay to the Budokai ...

Re: Is Budokai 3 overrated?

As for Burst Limit, it had a very solid foundation but it was so stripped down that it's no surprise it doesn't have the reputation of Budokai 3. I think the fact that we never got a sequel to further flesh out the game is one of the biggest missed opportunities in the realm of DBZ games. Yeah, I s...

Re: Is Budokai 3 overrated?

It's often considered the "best Dragon Ball fighting game", and when it comes to that respect, yes, it's overrated, especially considering that the Shin Budokai series is Budokai 3 but better in every single way besides character count. Yea. B3 is a mixed back for me. I mean structurally,...
