On-Topic, I really love the whole scene where Freeza has Kuririn impaled in the dub. The whole "Yee-haw! Ride em cowboy!" line just feels so....evil.

Even when I was nine, I thought the same thing. It was that joke and the toaster joke Vegeta made during his fight with 18(that one is my favorite) that made me wounder how these beings from outer space knew about our way of life and pop culture phrases.Innagadadavida wrote:How would an evil tyrant with mind boggling power be familiar with a pop culture trope of a planet he's never been to?

...Wait what are you doing? Are you still reading this? I finished what I had to say, why don't you move on to the next post?

I've always personally fanwakned around the 5 minute thing by just assuming a Freeza-crew standard minute =/= 60 seconds of Earth time. There's no way they break down their days based on Earth's lunar cycle. As for language, well clearly everyone speaks Galactic Basic (or Common). And clearly when anthros and triclops' and the like were walking Earth, they taught normal homo sapiens the language of the stars. Yeah.Innagadadavida wrote:It could be argued that Freeza has no idea what the length of a minute really is though.Rocketman wrote:The same way he knows Earth's language and what a 'minute' is.

I was just playing Raging Blast in English today and I noticed a lot of improvements in some of the minor character's voices. The voice actors for Nappa and Dodoria really toned things down a few notches. Whoever was imitating Clark's Cell did a good job I thought. It sounds to me like Young's Freeza has been getting more and more raspy and deep which...is a kind of good thing?

Look, Freeza just never learned how to estimate time right. He's very sensitive about the matter. Coola teased him enough about it as a child.

The victim of violent head trauma as an infant [...] he's a simple bumpkin with a fair share of brain damage who's natural talents to work out what's wrong compensate for his broad lack of common sense. But he's also a fighter, through and through [...] he fight until he has, in no uncertain terms, beaten his enemy on terms they can both acknowledge. He doesn't want to kill anyone, or even prove that he can win... he just wants to know he can. He's an ineffably charming bastard who's manly leanings were really incendental, and yes, the fact that he was voiced by a squeaky woman made the combination perhaps all the more charming.

Yes, but it's a cartoon popular with nerds like us Daizexers. It's in our nature to try and make sense of things that were never meant to make sense, and to participate in the futile exercise of trying to align fiction to our own sense of reality.Big Momma wrote:That...and sometimes we forget it's just a cartoon.Rocketman wrote:The same way he knows Earth's language and what a 'minute' is.Innagadadavida wrote:How would an evil tyrant with mind boggling power be familiar with a pop culture trope of a planet he's never been to?

I thought he just knew that if he flew high enough and far enough there ought to be a full moon somewhere. It isn't like it was night when they were fighting. He just started looking around.Rocketman wrote: And Vegeta knew when a full Moon was going to be.

Maybe so, but it doesnt make sense. It would imply an advanced knowledge of earth. ure, maybe they scanned it while deciding to target it. But then, how could they plot a course with the moon's location in mind and NOT notice the utter lack of a moon?
