Yeah, i'm not getting anything on my end either.
When I get home i'll try making another one and linking it here. Are you guys on mobile? I just tried on my phone and got nothing
Yes i'm on here with my tablet, and the links clearly don't work for me for some reason.
That might be why. If you have a laptop id suggest that. I'll check the links on my tablet when i get home

The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128

I guess so, those links may just not be supported on mobile devices' web browsers or something.

Are the links broken or something? I don't get why they wouldn't work even on regular PC's.

Nope, didn't work either.

I'm noticing that the URL has embed in it; maybe you're using the wrong share link?

Hm, it looks more like the Season Blu-rays. The OBs weren't smeared into a water paint style like the Season Blu-rays and the Black Brick.

If it weren't for the cropping, the OBs would have been pretty decent.

I think the later orange bricks looked pretty good, but the early ones were pretty bad

and the dust removal incident

Season two is pretty hard and was "better" on the bluray. But I really wish they didnt do the whole cropping thing. I know why they did but, if they just did for broadcast that woulda been fine

Oh god the second one with Bulma is absolutely atrocious, that's one that sticks out to me the most along with the scene from episode 24 where Nappa has the shaking going on around him. His teeth lines are almost totally erased and it looks horrible.

The early sets in particular were the absolute worst with shots like these.

If we got the whole series in that quality in 4x3 with the alternate angle title cards on DVD, I would be a very happy person

If the Orange Bricks had just been like the above shot in quality the whole way through and not cropped to fake widescreen/DNR'd to hell it would have been an actually good release.

I don't know if they have a better quality film or get lazy because the later season Blu-rays don't appear to have the same amount of DNR either. The line art doesn't look as bad, and in motion, you can see the grain more than in the earlier sets. This newer set (tho it does appear to have the smoothed over lines) does appear to have the same or maybe even a little less DNR as the later season set. The orange bricks too got better as they went along.
