DB Episodes 1-13. 2010. Gonna buy them?
Since *supposedly* the sub-license to DB episodes 1-13 from Funimation and Lionsgate Films expires in 2010, are you going the buy the releases? I may, because I like the dub of Dragonball from 2001, so I MAY buy it since I'm not interested in "The Saga of Goku".

They most likely will crop them, otherwise their would be no need to re-releace them since they originally keep the Japanese BGM.RoarkVegeta wrote:Totally agree. Would ruin it for me.
So you're best off keeping the original boxsets unless you want to experience it the way it was meant to be seen in widescreen in 2010.

I suppose I'll probably buy them, if only to have all the orange/green/whatever colour they use for DB bricks neatly lined up on the shelf.
They better be fullscreen though, otherwise I'm off to Madman.

New to the forum? Just want to know when you'll hit your next posting rank? Ever wondered why some users have special titles, and what they mean? The answers to all these questions and more are waiting for you in the Kanzenshuu Member Hierarchy Guide!!

Except there's that tiny problem with the original releases being completely out-of-print and harder to find than a "vaulted" Disney DVD, which a season set release would no doubt remedy.PrincessVegeta wrote:They most likely will crop them, otherwise their would be no need to re-releace them since they originally keep the Japanese BGM.
There doesn't have to be a new audio option for FUNi to release the series again, y'know.

They're not that hard to find online.
But they're expensive as all hell. Go look at user prices on Amazon. I dare you.
As for me, I'd rather track down the remaining sets I need (which are only the Tournament, Red Ribbon Army, and General Blue sets). I'll probably import the Madman version of the first 13 episodes. I would like a translated movie 1, though.
And I really wish this 2010 rumor would die. It's getting annoying and out of hand.

This thread is entirely pointless.
FUNimation is not getting the rights back in 2010. Somebody lied about it on wikipedia, and the fact that so many of you believed it just astounds me.
If FUNi really were getting the rights back in 2010, don't you think we would have gotten an official announcement by now? We knew many years in advance that Pioneer were losing the rights to DBZ seasons 1 and 2 in August 2003; why should this case by any different?
It's because Lionsgate owns the rights for the foreseeable future. Don't get your hopes up, folks. You'll only end up being disappointed.

I think just about everyone here is completely aware that it's just an unsubstantiated rumor. The thread is mostly speculation, and there's nothing wrong with that.
