I think what Adamant was getting at is it's fine when the dub fans want to laugh at this pathetic tripe but when sub fans make fun of their equally bad dub (YAMCHA NEEDS TO RUB MY FEET TO GET the RAMOTE, OH POOPIE, I HAVE AN UPDATED NEURAL PROCESSOR, I DON'T EVEN HAVE SHOE LASES, NOW YOU CAN USE IT AS A BACKSCRATCHER, MORE LIKE...BURNT TOAST.) they get very defensive.B wrote:People make fun of FUNimation's dub all the time here, from what I've seen. Lots of "BIG DADDEH G4LIC" and "KLIYLYNZ IN DA HOUZ" everywhere.
What are you guys smokan?

You know, I think one of the problems with this dub that really gets on my nerves is that they're all at the same decibel level and volume. Everything sounds like it's being said at the same distance, even those far off in the shots.

Hey!! FYI... Guilmon ((my favorite Digimon((screw Pokemon)))) is voiced by Masako Nozawa and she's AMAZING when she's on to it.B wrote:This is my comment on Brollie:
Oh, and check out 5:35 of the first video. THAT is a constipated Super Saiyan.
Anyway. Broli sure sounds like a bull to me with his grunts and his "Kakeroto". And Goku sounds like an American Super Hero and especially Superman!!
Now correct me if I'm wrong... Is this dub the same who dubbed movie 3 and made Tullece say that Goku is his brother?

I like how people are being deliberately obtuse about this dub thing. The point isn't that no-one slams the FUNi dub but that slamming bad elements of the FUNi dub usually bring up a lot of whining about how criticism is mean. We've had entire topics about slamming the FUNi slammers but those same people think ripping the 'Big Green' dub to shreds is hilarity defined with none of the 'lets play nice' grandstanding from when dub mockery hit closer to home.
That's the damn point not this strawman BS about no-one dissing the FUNi dub.

The reason for this is that the Funimation dub means so much to us dubbies. We feel the same way the Japanese only folks get mad when someone says that Kakarrot sounds like a girl or the music sucks. The dub is what made the majority of us fans and we all have sentimental or emotional attachments to it whereas the Big Green dub means nothing to us whatsoever.Sprite Satan wrote:I like how people are being deliberately obtuse about this dub thing.

The series doesn't start with the arrival of Raditz. Stop being lazy and watch Dragonball.

I think the only thing good about the Bardock clip was Solid State Scouter. Everything else was horrible.

Re: Big Green dub - Movie 8 and Bardock Special
The fanbase for this dub is obviously much smaller than Funi's, so that's why you can bash it without getting responses.Adamant wrote:You know, I'd like to get an explanation as to why the Big Green dub is fair game to ridicule like this, while the FUNi dub is not, because they're pretty much on the same level quality-wise.Taku128 wrote: It's just as terrible as always.![]()
I never understood how it's possible to point and laugh at the crappynes of this dub, yet consider something like this perfectly watchable. They both sound like intentionally bad fan parodies.
And by the way, this is an example of the bashing I was talking about in a thread about a week ago. You never see threads like this about the original. (No, I don't like this dub but that doesn't mean I'm going to jump the hater bandwagon)

The Funi dub is bad.
The Big Green Dub sounds like an Abridged Parody

LOL I was actually thinking that too. The clip in the Bardock special with Vegeta made me lol (literally). I was thinking "Man people diss Funi's dub, but look at this!"jjgp1112 wrote:Difference between this and the early Funi dub:
