Yeah you're right, there's no use in trying to convince a purist that anything Dub is good and/or could be better & vice versa.

Yes, that's why I love the dubs of Cowboy Bebop/Gungrave/Fruits Basket/Wolfs Rain/etc... :roll:

Let's not be dicks here. I said for DB/Z/GT, there's no need to change anything. A good dub typically doesn't go so far off the original material as FUNi did in this case, which as noted before, they don't do with other properties. Funny, isn't it?

Close. Please.

& what do you call what you just did? Don't tell people not to do what you in the end do yourself.

Here is a difference between what you '&' I did-

I did that to try and put an end to something on a neutral note

YOU, on the other hand, are one of those people who MUST be right ALL the time and this is decided, when an argument gets out of hand, MUST think 'Last word = I've won internets!', otherwise you wouldn't continue to post despite having nothing constructive to actually say.

So seriously, stop

Kaboom, I'll ask you one time: stop taking my ideas. :evil: Does anyone even remember the "argument" anymore?

This thread's gotten so crazy, all I remember saying personally is ...

The rest is a blank. :shock:

Anywho, my last word in this thread will be that of a question. Was original DB saturated/filtered/jar-jared? I'm pretty sure movie 2 and the 10th anniversary feature were, but the series itself looks very close to the origin masters IMO. FUNi kept the original music for that series, I don't see why they would bother altering the color scheme.

Oh, yeah... that.

Don't tell anyone, but I'm trying to distract both peoples, so that they'll all abandon the stupic and pointless argument! Shhh!

Can I make a suggestion ?

Why doesn't someone with the DragonBox and with FUNimation DVDs, rip small clips from an episode with high quality (the same among both episodes), preferably during a fight between Super Saiya-jins ? It would be perfect to exploit both encodes at quick speed, and noticed the details of the aura of a Super Saiya-jin, as well as the colour of the eyes (for saturation purposes).

Go to hell you fucking pansy. How's that for getting the last word in?

The real difference in what you & I did was that I found a post that was meaningful enough to reply to. You however in an attempt to look like the reasonable one tried to tell me what my intentions were when infact yo knew you were just being a dickhead.

Well, I'll try to restore a little dignity to this thread.

It's not a bad suggestion, but an encode of anything is going to be inferior to actually watching on the tv(which, really is how a dvd is meant to be viewed). Just about any encodes suffers from some amount of pixializations and other oddities, so that's not going to give us the best possible presentation of either versions.

Why thank you dick head.

I suggest you take a long hard look at yourself & learn to debate proporly. Remember, opinions are like assholes, everyone has one & your is no better than anyone elses. You're the one who acts like a child. When you cannot win a debate against a mere dubbie, you get frustrated & start saying that your opinion is better & that your the winner. Just grow up you scum. The only eason why I still bother with you is because it's fun to watch losers over the internet squirm while still trying to act superior. It's always a good laugh for me and anyone around me to see what kind of bullshit you spew out next.
