Oh no, not the legendary performance of Vic as Broly. With such impactful lines as "REEEAAARRRGHH".

Again WHY do you think it matters. If they can erase a sexual predator’s performance with no real backlash then why not?

And again don’t give me the “erasing the past” bullshit from a company that has done nothing but that

I'm not gonna really get into the arguing parts of this or that because of this decision. But I wonder if the price of the original Broly movies and the new Broly movie with his voicing will go out of print and skyrocket in price? I mean, I'm not a scalper or anything but was just generally curious. :?
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 don’t think it matters. I just think it’s pointless. Then again, according to Terez’ tweet, they’re maybe not redubbing him anyway?

I honestly think Liam O'Brien would've been a better replacement.

Now with The Bosch replacing Vic McNuggets, maybe Jason DeMarco will finally air the dub of Dragon Ball Super: Broly on Toonami.

Realistically, i just don't see FUNi going back and retroactively redubbing Broly in the original three movies even with the controversy over Vic's actions and the termination of his VA contracts there last year. If they aren't going to revise movies that have god awful dumpster fire dubs such as Sleeping Princess which was done all the way back in 1998 then there's no reason to assume that they are going to expend effort redoing Broly's dialogue (whatever bits he does have over DBZ movies 8, 10, and 11 plus DBS: Broly) so Bosch is indeed the new voice for the character going forward for future projects franchise wise, but really don't hold your breath on the older material with Vic's voice being wiped away.
DB collection related goals as of now:

1.) Find decent priced copy of Dragon Box Z Vol. 4 (Done)

2.) Collect rest of manga

3.) Get rest of Daizenshuu (2-7)

Yeah. I agree but! I bet if the movies got a rerelease(I doubt highly dragonboxes here) that they may just go ahead and do it then? maybe?

Who knows? I mean it's possible they could but i'm not betting on it actually happening even though Sleeping Princess and Mystical Adventure in particular are the movies really in need of new dubs most of all because the old ones are 20+ year old hot garbage.

If they re-dub the Super movie (is that confirmed ?), then I wonder if they'll go a step further and re-dub the older Z Broly movies and even other projects he worked on outside of DB.

I don't believe that's been absolutely confirmed, though even then i don't really see them extending redubs to the old Broly movies and other VA roles of his.

I was a strong advocate of booting McNuggets from the industry, myself, and I'm glad he's no longer associated with Funimation. However, I don't take issue with the movie not getting redubbed. I think that depends entirely on how comfortable one would feel separating the art from the artist's misdeeds, and I totally understand where others are coming from.

But make no mistake, I'd love to see JYB doing more voice work as Broly. Unfortunately, video games are just about the only avenue I can foresee for this unless Toriyama and Toyotaro decide to bring his character back into the mainline story.

Side-bar: would love Bosch to do his own version of Dragon Soul so that there's a great version of the song again. :lol:

That's the thing. If Funimation were to redub Mignogna as Broly they would have to redub everything else he's worked on, like Edward Eric in the entirety of Fullmetal Alchemist and all the other titles they cast him on, which would be a lot of work and money on their part that I doubt they could make a return on.
Do you have any info about international non-English broadcasts about the Dragon Ball anime or manga translations/editions? Please message me. Researching for a future book with Dragon Ball scholar Derek Padula :thumbup:

Probably just his lines right?
