If that's the intention, then "Seer" is a pretty decent dub-only name pun. We don't get too many of those.

Yeah, Chaozu's inclusion on the cast list pretty much confirms the extended version (unless they gave him a couple of off-screen dub-only lines for the theatrical cut).

I'm happy that at least Bulma and Dr. Brief retain their Kai voices. Never hated Meridith McCoy's 18 and if Clickenbeard is doing Mai's voice, that casting makes sense. Like that Oolong's voice is back too, his Kai actor is a good actor. But he was miscast as Oolong, pretty much a bad impression of this Oolong. I'm bummed that Kyle Hebert is the Narrator. I love his Gohan, but Doc Morgan is SOOO much better in the role of the Narrator. Who knows, maybe with the Kai like direction they've been given maybe his Narrator will finally sound like something that isn't super exaggerated.

To be honest, I totally want Hebert to ham it up. This isn't exactly a serious movie from what I hear. :D

I know thay, but the Narrator really only recaps the earlier events of the series (which aren't silly like most of the movie). The Narrator is only in the extended editon.

Oh, well on the bright side I guess that does confirm it's the extended version. :D

Why not? They seem to be trying to be as consistent with the original Z as possible, and Kyle Hebert was the Z narrator in the show, movies, and video games. Doc Morgan is just Kai's narrator.

It's a little odd 18's name in the cast list is just "A18" instead of "Android 18" like in the past. Was this already changed in Kai?
EDIT: Oh they also changed Hercule's name to Mr. Satan. I must have been living under a rock.

I love Justin Cook's Super Buu, but his Dende isn't so great (imo). I guess this also means he is going to be Dende again in Buu saga Kai.

Kinda confused as to why they would bring back Meredith to do 18. I "kinda" see it happening as 18 is supposed to be older than she was during the Cell saga so they wanna make her sound older..but Colleen can do a older voice just fine. One listen of her Riza Hawkeye and you'd know her voice range is quite flexible.

Really hoping they aren't bringing back old cast members as a method to appease the Kai haters.

Um, kind of, I guess. He is almost always called Mr. Satan or Hercule Satan in the dub. It's only on Cartoon Network where the other name was used exclusively. I don't know about Kai, since I haven't seen it yet, but I believe they only called him Mr. Satan there as well.

Broadcast version of Kai (at least here in the states) had him going by the H-word again while he is Mr. Satan in the retail releases. Wonder if we will ever hear him be called by his actual first name, Mark.

The dub seems worse than I thought.
And I still hate that CGI final scene as much as before. Worst part of the movie.

Anyway, hope the american fanbase do their job and support this. Despiste that, the movie is still awesome.

I have to agree with your comment about the dub.
