EDIT: Just to let everyone know, the Waves and Rocks logo is present in the feature, though for an odd reason, it sports the "wide-screen" black bars. :?
Oy, you were doing fine until you had to throw in a punch at those who prefer the Japanese releases. Is there any reason for this, really?

And the 'Waves and Rocks' logo was originally intended for theatrical releases, which I believe were all presented in 16:9 LB. I may be wrong though, someone more knowledgable feel free to chime in.

I suppose there's no real reason to call buyers of the Movie Dragonbox anal, this isn't the thread for discussing that in the first place. I apologize for the inference, as I was kinda out of line for that. But hey, what I've said about FUNi's DVD release, I won't apologize about that. I'll say it one more time, the quality really is good (though yeah, it won't be as good as the Dragonbox). I know I look forward to EX's comparison pics on the two versions of the feature, getting to see the differences in video quality and amount of the picture on both versions offer is something I look forward to.

Regarding the Waves and Rocks logo, it was actually in full screen for the DBZ movies 1, 5, 9, 10, and 11 DVDs (as well as the Pioneer DBZ movie 2 and 3 DVDs if memory serves). It must just be some minor incident with the master that Toei sent FUNi, oddly similar to that of DB movie 2. Makes me wonder if movie 13 will have any black bar moments of its own. :P

Hm, I just checked my copies of movies 1, 5 and 9 to be sure. Only movie 1's Toei logo showed up as full screen, and it appeared to possibly be a pan and scan. I'd take screen caps, but my DVD software is MIA and I need to find my install somewhere around here...

Hmm, the logo is cool and all but, why are you all so hung up on this?

Oh, it's just an anal thing. Toei had the movies animated in 4:3, but cropped them to 16:9 for their theatrical and home releases. FUNi actually uses the original 4:3 masters, so you've got people who say the 4:3 is the better version since it's the full original cels, then you've got people like me who don't care since if you watch the movies nothing really happens in that margin ;p
