HA!

I love it. I mean, I admit, the Bingo song wasn't handled as well as I hoped, but it is still a thing of glory.

It's official. The English dub surpassed BoG original Audio.

I agree,I didn't like the bingo dance but the dub makes it 100% better for me
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

I've laughed more in these clips then the entire original version. Which is one of many reasons I prefer dub watching, I don't find comedy as funny reading it as opposed to listening to it, if that makes sense.
Also FUNi seem to have given Krillin extra lines

I am a fan of the English Dub but I think the scene with the Bingo Dance was awful.
After all, that's how it was meant to be...

And that's exactly what it should be.
Both of those clips were pretty good. I'm slowly coming around to Douglas' Beerus but it does seem to be pretty inconsistent.

Meh... this is my reaction to the English version of the Bingo song. I thought I would laugh.
But hey, it's decent: I just expected another thing.

From just those two clips I do prefer the original... but that's to be expected.
Beerus is too menacing.

That cringe worthy Bingo scene. The Latin dub was way better there.

A world without Dragon Ball is just boring.

Those two clips came out well. Bingo scene was hilarious and I like Kuririn's line. Doesn't bother me it was punched up. Also an even closer showing is happening for me! The movie theater I usually go to! Have a few options. They're only doing it the 5th and 9th, but that's better than none at all.

Well yeah, it's VEGETA singing a Bingo song. It's supposed to be embarrassing.
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!

When BoG has been released in enough countries, I think it would be great if someone wouldn't mind making a multilanguage compilation video of the Bingo scene.
Also, just gave in and watched the English version of that scene--I love it! And Kuririn's line complimented the scene perfectly...I'm not sure if it was faithfully translated or not, but if it wasn't, this is one of those times where I'll have to begrudgingly admit that I laughed at a rewritten line.

In the Japanese version he more or less just asked "What is Vegeta doing?". The dub version is a clever re-write that keeps the spirit of it but adds to the humor of the scene.

After seeing multiple languages for Bingo. I've decided that the English dub was the best. Wonder how Korea handled it.

Hahaha that was great! I think I like the Japanese version of BINGO! a little better but I did get a laugh out of that.

The Dragonboxes are like a middle aged woman who still looks good through simply taking good care of her skin and body with maybe a tiny bit of makeup while the Orange Bricks are like a middle aged woman who get's 50 tons of botox, makeup and plastic surgery in order to look younger and as a result looks even worse. ~ ringworm128
