Not really. The first Vegeta Saga was awesome. Frieza saga had some good moments when it wasn't being stuffed with filler and drug out like fifty years. The Cell and Buu Sagas had great animation. I really can't stand the Trunks special. the Pacing of the whole thing is terrible. It feels like it should be half as long or divided into episodes or something.

The Bardock special really does rule though. But Sonny Strait can't act worth crap in the Dub.

Star Trek won't improve until some good minds get behind the production. As long as Brennon and Braga are running it into the ground, it will retain the geek stigma. Was anyone frowned upon for liking StarTrek when Best of Both Worlds was coming in over the broadcast airwaves? No. The Borg ruled then. They were the first real threat to the Feds since the Romulans of the TOS...

But then Voyager went in after Roddenbury's death and made them just another group of villains. *sigh*

I've been debating whether or not to get that. The US release is called "A Hero's Legacy."

Last night's episode of DragonBall GT, I swear, consisted entirely of Vegeta having flashbacks about his first two figths with Goku. (Hearing Chris Sabat's voice from Season One Vegeta's character design was way weird)

It included the first beam struggle-Gallick Gun versus Kamehameha, with enough flashing lights to drive all of Japan into seizures. ANd that first struggle looks SO MUCH MORE POWERFUL than any of the suposedly "Times Ten" Kamehameha's in DBGT. The animation for GT consists of 90% still pictures!

When I was young I always heard that GT sucked, but I never wanted to believe that. But now I realize all those people were right. And then the insult us by showing an episode of flashbacks of a much better series before Toie screwed up Vegeta and made Goku a child again. Ugh..
Makes me mad. The only GT episodes I really like was the one in which Super Android 17 is killed. I was surrpised that the English cast gave GREAT (for them, anyway) performances in that one.

But I will never accept Funimation's giving Dr. Myu a Russian accent. HE'S FROM OUTER-KRIFFING-SPACE!!!

Evil Ghost General: So, I'm looking for recruits to my army. To take over the world. Your name.

Ghost Peter: My name is Peter, and I have a problem.

Evil Ghost General: Problem?

Ghost Peter: *comes out of drunken stupor* Holy Crap! This isn't ecto-holics anonymous... LOIS!?!?! *Looks for his wife*

Evil Ghost General: *sighs dejectedly* Do you have any special talents?

Ghost Peter: Well. I can play the piano better than that kid from charlie brown when I'm drunk!

Evil Ghost General:*Obtains Migrane* Well. You're utterly worthless. There has to be a better way to get new recruits *Uses evil powers to destroy Ghost Peter* NEXT!!


On an unrelated note, today, I just realized how crappy DragonBall GT is compared to it's predecesors. I officially hate Toei animation now.

Just one piffy piece of advise:

You may consider her boyfriend a moron, and he may well be a moron. But she might not think that way, so you should probably be respectful of him around her.
(A mistake I made. I called her boyfriend a midget because he was short. That isn't what I wanted to say--I wanted to call him something much more accurate and ruder. To this day I still have no idea how those two worked together. As I figured, he dumped her within a few months. His loss, of course. But even though I was right, I can't imagine how bad of an impression that must have made on *her*)
