Ok, I was just watching movie 9 dubbed and the ending...
OMFG
It was awsome!
The whole part at the end where they were praising Gohan and he's trying to be all humble, they turned it into a Mr. Satan rag fest :p

Oolong: Gohan, you defeated Bojack! D'ya know what this means? With the right press you could be as big as Mr. Satan. Well, almost as big...if you had a big enough wig.

Bulma: Mr. Satan doesn't wear a wig!!

Kuririn: Oh come on. Nothing on that man is real! He probably bought his chin at a thrift store.

---------------------

Vegeta to 18: If you give up now I'll turn you into something practical. Like a toaster oven, or a washing machine.
-----------------------
One legit badass exchange was in movie 6. I love when Vegeta first shows up on the scene. I know someone posted part of this before, but it was just that cool :p

Vegeta: You'll spill no Saiyan blood today *transforms into a SSJ*

Coola: *shock* What? A SECOND Super Saiyan!?!

Vegeta: Second in order perhaps, but by no means in stature. Your fight is with me now. Kakarott's fate is no longer your concern.

Coola: Super Saiyans yes, but monkies all the same. You're still all show and no substance.

Vegeta: Hmph. We'll see about that!


Different from the original, but pure Vegeta all the way. Also in movie 8-

They're mere grunts fighting an entire army... I am Prince Vegeta!

Though Piccolo stole the show for me earlier in that movie.

I can't believe how cowardly you're acting, Vegeta. Just stand clear of the true warriors..

That's right. He went there. Do something.

-----------------------
Goku in movie 13 after going level 3: Fight me, if you're ready to die. Or something like that.
-----------------------
Piccolo in movie 3, as Tullece watches Goku fight the minions: This isn't a spectator sport!
----------------------

And let's see if I remember this correctly. Majin Vegeta, after he pins Goku: What clown? Are you feeling angry, humiliated, is that it? YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HUMILIATION IS!!

Also, the music in that scene, and they played it a few times during that whole part of the story, was awsome. I have no idea what the track is called, but it rocked. I *think* they played it right before Buu hit full power too.

Oh! speaking of whom... lil testicle head just sounded so happy! I like his english VA better than the original to be honest.

Fu...full power? Majin Buu is at FULL POWER!!!!!!
To show my appreciation, I'll only beat them half to death.

Well, regarding GT (what little I've really seen of it, anyway), I thought the line Mr. Schemmel said when SSJ4 Goku caught back up with Baby was kinda cool:

"... No. This is just another costume change for the weakling Saiyan."

Yus. :D
Art, etc. links taken down for now. Will be updated at some point. I dunno.

Reguarding GT their was this set of quotes which came from the Blue Water dub which made me laugh, it went something like this...

SSJ4 Goku: You may have blinded my sight dragon, but I can still sence you ki... the only way you'll land a hit is if you join a boy band.

(This exchange is from the Trunks Saga, one of my favorite dub dialogs)

Vegeta: "What are you looking at?"

Trunks: "Nothing..it's just that I, uh, like your shirt."

Vegeta: *Scoffs* "You would."


---------------------------------------------------------------------

I have no idea why, but that line became a running inside joke with me and my best bro for years now. One of us says we like something or are interested in checking out a movie/videogame/girl/book/etc. and if it is even anything remotely out of the ordinary we'd scoff at the other and say "You would." I'm laughing just typing this. My friend sometimes follows it up by saying, "Such a Badman.." (In reference to Vegeta's shirt in that episode.) Yeah, us 20 somethings have a strange sense of humor I guess..

That's another thing I liked how they kept riding Vegeta about that in the dub. Haven't seen those eps in Japanese (cheap) but it is definately funny in English.

Haha what was it he said when he finally exploded? "Who cares about the stupid pink shirt?!?!?!" or something. I like when he got 'em too. "These clothes...are they for a man or a woman...? They're PINK!"

That whole part of the story was just funny. I like when he was yelling at Trunks about not needing help "from you, the Namek, or ESPECIALLY Kakarott!" Just...dunno why but I laughed hard when I heard it.

They rode Vegeta pretty hard about that stupid hairstyle/mustache in GT...

Another Blue Water DBGT quote...

*From the Vegeta flashback episode*

Vegeta: Don't get on your high horse clown, when I've become a super Saiyan you're next.

Goku: Ok.

Dragon Ball

Yajirobe: This isn't going to be as easy as I thought.

Goku: I still don't know what brektis is.

Dragon Ball Z

Bulma: Hey guys. What's going on? A little play by play for those of us in the cheap seats would really be appreciated you know!

Piccolo: Trunks is big and strong, alright!

This dub is pretty close to the JP version, but is slightly funnier.

Boss/Vodka: But first you'll tell me where you've hidden your chicken! That's right, I know you have one!

Goku: Chicken? Where?

Boss/Vodka: Don't play dumb! The one with the frying pan!
1 Corinthians 13: When I was a child, I spoke and thought and reasoned as a child. But when I grew up, I put away childish things. Except the anime. Never the anime.

More blue water quotes...

Goku: Blast that green slug face, so of a slug tail!

Piccolo: How dare you spill sacred blood of a royal.

So, as long as we're not restricted to FUNimation dubs...

Piccolo: LET THAT CHILD ALONE!

Oh, let's not forget:

Tullece: Gohan is going to eliminate his own father good I don't have to DON'T WORRY about your son I promise I'll take care of him you aren't going to be around to PROTECT him!

Best run-on sentence ever. :D

When Vegeta called Goku a circus clown in the Buu saga, Goku says something about that being a new one. Then I was watching movie 8 with one of my friends and Vegeta called him a clown and my friend yelled out "OMG RETCON!"

I dunno, it was just funny.

My favorite line from the dub would have to be from Hercule when he was fighting Android 18 and Mighty Mask (I think that was his name...it's been a LONG time since I watched it :( )

Hercule: I got two fists of fury and there's one for each of you!

My favourite line has to be from the driving lesson episode "Hey hurry up grandma Piccolo". It always puts a smile on my face :D

"You think Buu Sexy??!?!?!?!"
-when Buu's terrorizing the city and he comes across this girl that he likes
:D That didn't get old for a loooooong time.

Oooh and also:
Buu: Ugly? What 'ugly'?
Vegeta: It means you scare little children with your face!

I really liked that rant thing that Vegeta gave Goku about how he cared for his family; it went something like this:
But slowly...over the years...I became one of you....
I awoke one day to find that I had settled down and formed a family...I had even grown quite fond of them...


I thought that was adorable, coming from him :3

I don't like Broly much, but my favorite dub line is from his first movie.

Vegeta: I'm still the prince of all Saiyans Broly!(something like that)
Broly: Then please, try your best to make me kneel before you.

That's just badass, I like it a lot.

Best demonstration ever! :D

Goku: It's a simple technique, but we have to harmonize our spiritual energies or it won't work. Our powerlevels have to be exactly the same. We also have to move in perfect sync. Your posture has to mirror mine.

Vegeta: My what?

Goku: I'll show you. Don't worry. It's kind of like a cross between traditional fighting stance and water ballet, except without the water.

Vegeta: Ballet?!

Goku: Just watch for a second. It's easier to show you than to explain it. Fu... Now, think of two rivers flowing toward one another that become narrower and narrower the closer they get to each other. ...Sion! Note the opposing position of knee and arms! HA! The two rivers converge at two single points. The points give way under the pressure, and the rivers flood into each other and become one.

Vegeta: You're insane! I'm not posing like that!

Vegeta: We're warriors, Kakarot! Not water ballerinas!
I just watched that right now, and thought, "Wow, it has Bad Friends from Saiyuki. I love that song!" Then when the clip was over, and the song kept going, I realized my playlist was playing. :shock:
What's scarier than a DBZ H-game?

Some of the movie 9 script was funny.

Kuririn: Space chicks are hot!

And – in my opinion – the best FUNi dub line:
Gotenks is fighting Buu in the room of spirit and time.
Piccolo: We're doomed!!134eleven!
