It's actually Scott Morgan's and Mike Smith's.

It's very unlikely that they DON'T keep the two versions of the dub. Stop complaining, please.

Now, tell me this. What power do you think I have that arguing it with me might make two BGM options happen?

All I was trying to do is make my point, and you guys are acting like I have no right to even want it there.

Because we don't know what the DVDs will have on them exactly, so it's not worth complaining about yet?

Or maybe you've been getting catered to for 13 years, and now it's our turn?

From what I've gathered
He hates the English BGM for the first 2 seasons because it's not Faulconer, so he wants the Japanese BGM for those episodes, but he wants to be able to switch to the Fulconer BGMs come Season 3.
Am I right?

Yes. That's exactly why. I want to have the option to listen to whatever dub score I damn well please in 4:3 and in good quality.

Funi is marketing these sets that find those music options irrelevant. Kinda like how they marketed the season sets to those who found picture quality and aspect ration irrelevant.

Err... Yeah. Not so much.

I can see why one would want to have both NA dubs included, and it would certainly cover all their bases, but at the same time, it's hardly reasonable to expect FUNi to include both. No other series that they release gets more than one English dub, and I don't understand why DBZ should be any different.

No one knows for sure at this point, though. There isn't any sense in getting up in arms over it... It was announced less than 12 hours ago.

Having Chris Sabat yell at me about these sets has made me 100x more excited, though.

God damn, this thread is moving fast!

How on Earth could I get those masterful musicians confused!? My apologizes Mr.Boss.

Oh yeah, discredit my point because there was one series of releases that didn't, even though all of the other ones after it did

As strongly as I may feel that deliberately asking for Faulconer's score while sober is the same as asking for a vasectomy without local anesthetic, jjgp does raise a good point here.

However...

I'm also inclined to agree that the fact that these sets are DEFALUTED to Japanese with subs (an all time first for FUNimation for anime in general as far as I know, not just Dragon Ball) says pretty loud and clear that the dub fans are (for the first time ever, once again) not really the concern with these releases. Which while shitty for them that they're not being catered to with a Dragon Ball release, and I do sympathize, as DemonRin succinctly put it...

WELCOME TO OUR LIVES FOR THE PAST 13 YEARS.

But the fact of the Matter is, if you're a Dub Fan, the 4:3 releases were MOSTLY complete. You had to put up with the Ocean Cast for the first few seasons, but you could get the entire series English dubbed, in 4:3.

Japanese fans have never been thrown this bone.

I'm not an Ocean fan, though.

And the same for you guys: the 4:3 releases are MOSTLY complete.

And again, I want good quality, not shitty macroblocked quality.

That's the point. A lot of us are hoping they don't pull this "Sticking as much as they can on these discs" BS so we dont lose image quality.

Y'know this makes me wonder...

The Japanese Dragon Box releases for Z were only split in two. One with Goku on it, the other I think with Cell IIRC?

The first FUNi box corresponds with the first Japanese set. Since it's getting split into seven however, what's the art going to be like on the other five sets?
