Only a few second clips with grain in them which just goes to show that Toei like to tease us...

Please don't hurt me....

Actually, I find it's a lot funnier to say it more subtle-like.

"I'm not really sure, I think it was somewhere around 9000...maybe more...."

If this is a Funimation DVD release, wouldn't it show that funimation likes to tease us?

- If you get excited over three-second clips of Toei-remastered Dragonball.

- If you get into arguments over who delievered the "Over 9000!" line the best.

- If you've ever yelled "Kaioken!" during a fist fight.

- If the new special nearly brought tears to your eyes.

- If you own a Scouter.

- If you own several Scouters so that you can practice your "OVER 9000!" rendition.

- If you got the "Over 8000!" joke in DBZ Abridged.

- If you and a friend frequently make a scene in public by re-enacting "My sushi!" "My pork!"

- If you have a Goten/Trunks style synchronized trash-talk routine with your best friend for when you team up to take on some problem in your life.

Nope since it is Toei's ideal choice for their colours in the series, not only was the grain scene nostalic to remind me about the dragonball series.

But also their colour pallet for the backgrounds such as the sunset scenes in One Piece 1st and 2nd Voyage contain the same colours as the sun sets in Dragonball Z where Gohan was lost on that island.

And the green and blue mixed sky makes an appearence in the 1st Voyage set in episode 10 and also later in the 2nd Voyage set aswell.

Whenever you drive past the ancient mysterious stone henge, (In England) you have images and theories in your head that some aliens called Saiyans came hundreds of years ago and created it.

You know you're a (dub) fan when someone asks you "Is that OK ?" and you reply "As a matter of fact, it isnt".

You know you're a Dragonball (Z) fan if you think that strong wind blowing past you is an aura... and that when you scream/tighten your muscles, you can raise your power level. :P

If last night you dreamt you watched a video of the Japanese premiere of the movie, and the audience's reaction involved laughing, booing and some vomiting. It was a pretty weird dream. Especially since after the premiere some of the people went to the train station and met Jackie Chan.

And no, I'm not a movie hater.
