So it should be Sunday morning over in the American lands; did anyone get to see the BluRays live?

So we should see a trailer soon?

And also, I found one of the guys remastered videos but with Dragon Box footage, I guess this what I meant in my conversation a few weeks ago in this thread about my dream release: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UThgV1Bq ... ideo_title
GT isn't bad, just sucks ass in comparison to the other 2 animes.

They've certainly cleaned up the footage, but the colours are just far too bright for me. I'd have a hard time watching a remaster like that for hours upon hours.

I really don't see what you're trying to accomplish here. These all look terrible.
Yamcha: Do you remember the spell to release him - do you know all the words?
Bulma: Of course! I'm not gonna pull a Frieza and screw it up!
Master Roshi: Bulma, I think Frieza failed because he wore too many clothes!

Well that video is really bright, and it's just really rubbed down and polished. However, I don't think it's as bad as the orange bricks. Of course, if the whole thing was remastered like that there would be quite a few problems somewhere. I've never seen that scene with the Faulcner score before, and I have to admit, I kinda liked it.

Agreed, except for the blurry part. It's not that blurry........

I can only agree that it's cropped to a 16:9 ratio but I can absolutely 110% say it's not oversaturated and blurry. Far from it, IMO.

Who knows? I hope so, the trailer at AWA was a bit different than the Otakon one as it didn't have that countdown.

It is most definitely oversaturated, unless we have different eyes or something.

I didn't think it was way too oversaturated. The colors were nice, but a little too bright, though.
So mondo lame.

That's how I feel. It's not as bad as orange brick saturated.
