Yeesh, man!  I was looking all over for this thread just now!  I had no idea it had been bumped today!

But Dragon Ball Kai... hmm... only seen clips.  Dub looks better.  I'm "meh" about the show in general.  Annoyed that the release only has FUNimation's title cards and credits.  Probably not going to buy it anytime soon.

But, anyway, the reason I was looking for this thread is because I was looking for the logo you made.  You said it was just a prototype, but I think I might actually use it for now because I'm lazy.  Granted, that doesn't make any sense considering I wouldn't be doing any work on it anyway, but I like it, and, for now, it will suit my purposes.  Just wanted to make sure that was okay with you.

EDIT:  Although, come to think of it, it would be awesome if you did a black background, white text version of it as well. ^_^

Yeah, The Mario and Luigi series always went too far with the action commands for me, to the point where you needed some really good reflexes to get anywhere. I always felt Paper Mario 2 had the best characterizations and world. That game was absolutely hilarious. Paper Mario was my second RPG, after Pokemon Blue, so I hold it in pretty high regard.

Really?  I love the Mario and Luigi games... well, the first one as that's the only one I have... I don't own a DS.  But I really can't say enough nice things about that first Mario and Luigi game.

And Mario RPG was actually the very first RPG I played.

EDIT:  Damnit, xhonzi!  I was typing, kay?!

Don't get me wrong, I love the Paper Mario series as well.

Let me break it down for you, mkay?  In certain ways, it's hard to compare the two, as all of the Mario RPG series takes things in different directions.  As far as the action command aspects, yeah, the Paper Mario series takes that aspect from the original RPG and runs with in ways the original never dreamed.  Each character has a specific function on and off the battlefield.

In terms of being an RPG, though, the Paper Mario series is definitely the most simplistic and stripped down of the bunch, though.  The original game definitely has the edge in terms of story and characters, though, where your party members actually feel like characters and not just tools to use in specific situations.

The first game definitely has my favorite depiction of the Mario universe ever.  I remember even attempting a novelization of the game when I was about to finish middle school.  Sadly, I never finished it.  Maybe someday...

Well, in some examples, backgrounds had been redrawn at some point for later IMAX releases that were used for the DVDs like in Beauty and the Beast.  And then there were those allegedly controversial moments that Disney decided to edit out like the priest's knee-penis in The Little Mermaid.
