:? this thread is so offtopic :shock:
This is closely relevant to the future DBoxes upon FUNimation's license expiration in three years time. They have to do that ASAP.

Watch closely, they would've done the DBox Movies.

Starting at 26 minutes in...

"So the idea is to eventually pick that back up again but let demand build back up a little more because it sounds like, basically, that the need for Dragon Ball is being met still by those bricks that are still in print."

Too bad they can't just stop printing the bricks as a way to prepare to push the Blu-rays out in order to create that demand. Maybe do something sort of like what's on Zune where they were replacing episodes with the new remaster as they chugged along.

I gotta wonder really how bad their footage of DBZ is. I'd love it if, at the very least, they went back and did something similar to what they did for the Green and Blue Bricks and throw that out on DVD in the meantime just so a half-decent looking readily available 4:3 DBZ was on the market for fans who missed the Dragon Box.

I've been thinking the same thing. I just hate how the only available version of the show on DVD is still the cropped, DVNR version, even if for the sake of any new fans or anyone just now getting back into the series.
