Dragonball Z.

  1. Was anyone else just absolutely in love with this show back in their early years? I think I was completely obsessed.

    I think this show was the only Nerd/Geek side of me that I let out a lot. Well, besides Transformers. I mean, I rode the bus in middle school. So, everyday, I would fly off the school bus, run inside, and turn on "Cartoon Network" to "Toonami." Then, would be my half hour of solitude and paradise. Dragonball Z. Yes.

    I was just talking about this show to a few people at work. So, our new plan is to get all of them on DVD, get really, really, really baked one day and watch them all. Back in the day, I never smoked weed, yet, still found this show to be just insane.

    I know it gets old. Good guys, get their asses stomped. They power up, transform into some amazing being, and beat the shit out of the bad guys. Usually, a huge Spirit Bomb would do the trick. But, for my 12-year-old mind, that was more than enough. Man, what a great show for my childhood. :D

  2. Haha I was definitely an avid watcher of DBZ and DBZ GT, I even collected pics of the characters. Vegeta was one crazy fucker:

  3. I remember getting all choked up when the very last episode of DBZ-GT aired. I watched it ever since Dragonball. That final episode, was a chapter in my child-hood.

    Goku, and Piccolo were two of my favorites. Along with Vegeta. I wish I were a Saiyan...
     
  4. I had a rare original american copy of the playstation dbz game final bout in mint condition ;). I bought it on ebay for 125$ when I was 16 with my moms ebay account- sold it later for 350$. they rereleased it later and its now worth piddly. It was one of the first games I played on the ps2, so it was around when that first came out

    i have a dbz aol screen name that i still use :( <--tear
     
  5. I can't say anything about this topic but, COME ON! DBZ is so lame, I can't stand it, sorry no offense, but thats something a 6 yr old would watch, I tried watching it before, but I couldn't take it.
     
  6. Im not gonna lie......... I use to love DBZ. I watched an episode a couple weeks ago during the Cell saga (the best saga btw) And i was just amazed at how corny it was. Soooooooooooooooooooooooo much talking, then they would have previews for the next show showing all the fighting parts, so you think its gonna be an action packed episode so your all excited during school waiting to get home to see goku kick some ass, and its a 30 second fight scene with 21 and a half minutes of talking for the rest of the episode. WHAT THE FUCK??!!?!? sorry.......i got a lil carried away.
     
  7. If it wasn't for Dragonball Z, my German would be a lot worse than it is (I watched it on German satellite station). However, because of it I tend to overuse words such as zerstören or vernichten when I speak German :p
    It was a tight show, but the 15-minute commercial breaks drove me nuts.
     
  8. i used to watch it almost everyday after football practice, me and my brothers were hooked.

    hell even the video game was pretty good imo
     
  9. Holy shit I loved that show. I reember I almost shit my pants when Goku was fighting Freeza, who I thought was a chick, and he like had that flash of Super Sayian. I kenw Freeza was about to get his shit wrecked, or when Goku and Vegeta joined forces to fight that other dude...yeah.

    I used to be torn between DBZ, and the Simpsons.
     
  10. I used to watch Dragonball when I was like in kindergarten, I started watching Dragon Ball Z like in middleschool.

    My sister watches/owns an extensive amount of anime so I've seen a bunch :p
     
  11. Yeah alot of the DBZ episodes deal with them talking most of the time. But it's a good anime none the less. I really liked Vegito, he was a funny dude.
     
  12. I still have a DBZ lunchbox somewhere in my closet... 'nough said.
     
  13. lol lunch box :smoke:

    im not as embaressed about DBZ as much as im embaressed I got hook on biggest piece of garbage show in the world, power rangers...Cmon it was cool when it first came out right?? I wasted a crap ton of $ on those toys, and pokemon cards?? holy shit...

    If i ever have children Im going to seriously bust their balls if they waste so much $ on stupid shit
     
  14. I'm a sucker for nostalgia, but if someone had like a DVD set of DBZ... I'd watch it, right now, and still probably enjoy it.

    'n I don't even care about saying that lol.
     
  15. They need to make a live action movie of DBZ. Like what they did with "Transformers". I'd nut myself. :)
     
  16. The hair would just make it kinda suck. The concept is great... but I couldn't imagine watching an entire movie with a real life replication of the DBZ hair.
     
  17. it was rumored a few years back that 20th century fox actually was making a live action dbz movie

    and there is a japanese live action Dragon ball movie, its horrible tho, very loosely based, I hardly remember watching it I think i had a Bootleg/dubbed version

    there are also never before seen (ive seen them) DBZ movies that comes after movie 12 I believe?? They were actually called lost episodes but they were movies taking place after the commonly known set of short movies.

    I remember watching them, where all the villians were released from HELL and they had to fight all the old foes again, EVERY foe, unfortunately the quality of the VHs tape was so bad I didnt watch it all or follow it good, but i still have it.
     
  18. CGI it...

    I mean, they can do so much now. Given enough funding, great writing...it may be mediocre at best.
     
  19. DBZ is one of the main reasons I started to weight train. I wanted be as "ripped as Goku."
     
  20. yessss and i still love getting baked and watching that shit
