GT and Movie 6

[Joey Batz]

You know the Funimation tracks for Dragon Ball GT? The ones everybody loves to hate (alright, alright, I didn't really like them either). Well I was watching DBZ Movie 6 (The Return of Cooler) and I noticed something: The track for Movie 6 and for all of GT are the SAME! Well, maybe not exactly the same, but I heard a couple of songs in the movie that are played quite liberally throughout GT. Sorry for posting the most useless thread in Dragon Ball fan site history (doubly so if this is old news), but I just thought it was pretty interesting.

NOTE: If I didn't make it clear already, I'm talking about the Funimation dubs. Not the Japanese score, not the Ocean dub or the Blue Water dub or whatever other dubs are out there (be they from companies named after water or not).

Mark Menza "scored" both DBZ Movie 6 (and some others?) and DBGT, so it wouldn't be a surprise if you heard the same BGM tracks on both.

Yeah, Menza scored GT, as well as DBZ movies 6, 7, 9, 11, and the movie 1 redub.

Movies 6 & 7 seem to be where he gets the "recurring themes" that pop up in his score from time to time. Like, for example, the theme that he created for the movie 6 & 7 Super Saiyan transformations is incorporated intro his GT score whenever somebody does anything heroic.

It's pretty much the only time the GT dub score drops the constant somber-ish tone and tries to produce anything even close to emotion.
