I've seen part of the South Korean movie, and most of the Taiwanese movie. Never seen Evolution (and I never will...but did I really need to say THAT?), though I admit if Chow Yun-Fat wasn't in it, I wouldn't be the least bit tempted. I'll probably stick to watching A Better Tomorrow for the billionth time to get my Fat Fix.
Have you at least watched the anime?

I've seen maybe six to ten episodes all the way through from the original, and all the Vegetto scenes from his episodes. I watched the whole Saiyan arc of Kai also, and a few of the movies.

Even though I own the whole series, every time i try to watch it it's just so dull, especially since I also own the whole manga and can just pick that up instead and flip to whatever scene without Staring Contests Ahoy.

Yep, seen all of DB and Z, then during bored down time went back and watched filler episodes that I found out about and skipped before.

I was originally going to finish the manga, but when I found out how Viz had eviscerated it (or whatever you want to say they did to it) I realized that I had the first Blue Brick that I'd gotten as a Christmas gift a few years ago, and I thought "why am I agonizing over the manga when I have the uncut anime just laying around?" So that got me started, except for a month off I began DB in January and finished Z in June or July this year.

I haven't seen the last 2/3 of Dragonball, however I have read the manga. I can also thankfully say that I've never seen the Garlic Junior filler mini saga. I tried watching the first couple of episodes before, and they were just abysmal.

"Flayed?" I like flayed.

I would like to read more of the manga, I started buying nice volumes of them while I was in Japan (stupidly thinking I'd be able to put them all in my luggage at the end of my ryugakusei-hood). Something about black and white images makes my eyes fall out and my brain to hemorrhage.
A YouTube channel with no AMVs on it? I know, it's hard to believe.

I might have missed and episode here or there when I watched it on Toonami. But I have read the entire manga.

Flayed is excellent. Flayed alive.


ON-TOPIC MONKEY WRENCH: I forgot to say I've never seen any of the films, no Curse of the Blood Rubies, no Tree of Might, no nothin'. I think those are what I'll be moving on to next though.

I've seen all of DBZ and DB, and DB by far being my favorite. I'm working my way through what is available of DBZ kai. About through the Freeza saga...

I've seen all the DBZ movies so far, maybe not all of 1 or 2 of them, but i really want to watch the DB movies. I've only seen a handful and i pretty much torrent it all and its hard to find seeders for the original DB movies.

I don't even want to watch the rest of GT. I jumped around it, but didn't really enjoy much of it.

Pretty much haven't seen any of GT and I haven't finished Kai. Other than that, I've seen everything.
