Topic: My Dragonball Z Project "Rock the Dragon HD"

Posted under Off Topic

This is practically of the few places I frequent anymore, so I thought why not tell you guys of it.
My editing project actually just started off as transferring the Faulconer tracks of the Frieza saga over to the Dragonbox footage. Getting a hang of my program, and liking the prospect of having my DBZ collection the way I remember watching it after school was all too great though. So I decided to keep my project moving, but instead transfer to HD. (Not to say the 4:3 Frieza collection wasn't finished though)

I had hoped /a/ and /co/ would have liked my work, but /a/ told me to fuck off and /co/'s response was underwhelming...
Still having fun doing this though, tell me what you guys think. I'd really like to share my work, but I don't know what method to do so.

Dragonball is overdone as shit.

I can think of several better animes off the top of my head. What I mean is that it's hard to like. The animation hasn't aged well, the main character is a fucking retard, everyone wastes time during fights with monologue, it became too long for its own good and any and all video game recreations of it are just as bad.

If you are referring to the original english release, you'd be correct. Look to Kai or the original Japanese and you'll see that it's honestly much less because a lot of it was padding- same with the charge scenes.

...and any and all video game recreations of it are just as bad.

Er, no. The earlier tenkaichi budokai games weren't bad at all. the RPGs were also pretty fun.

I'm not working on several other anime, nor am I giving a crap if someone dislikes DBZ. Also Goku is the reason I loved the first Dragon Ball show; he's childish, hopeful, and completely blind to what makes the world an ugly place (leagues better than the angsty preteens and empty-headed waifus every other anime shoves in our face). It's very obvious through out the show though, that Toriyama wanted to put Gohan in the main spotlight for Z.

And I'm not here to argue how tacky anime is, I'm just here to share one of the best drugs the body has to offer, Nostalgia. Namely the DBZ that was aired during the evenings on Toonami.
Saiyan' as much, I did, erm, "finish" the ending segment. I didn't see the point in adding all the credits, as it's the Ocean group's ending, not Funimation's, which is the dub I'm focusing on (the episodes Faulconer composed for to be specific).

I'll upload my progress on the intro as soon as I'm done putting it together.

It's soon, and I got progress!]My ADD urges were killing me on this one, can't tell you how bored I was getting making sure every frame matched perfectly... The OCD won out though and the outcome was satisfying.Like the description says though, I still have some work ahead of me on this video. Any input would also just be terrific.[/shameless bump]
