Is this like a US version of the Dragon Boxes or something?
Seems interesting.
-
Woah Woah Woah? You mean we can actually have the dub have cha-la-head-cha-la as an opening and not some crappy guitar solo? =O
It's to bad I don't have an Hd tv =/

Fixed for truth.
-
nope, the crappy guitar solo<<<<<<<<<
-
Truth my ass.
I was estatic up until they mentioned the series would be in widescreen format. Uh…
-
I saw this on ANN as well, good thing I've never invested in DBZ DVDs in the past.

Are we on the same frequency, here? This is the dumbest song in the history of Japanese anime openings, and you lot actually want to hear it? Do you actually find merit in the song, or perhaps you like it just because it's "the original opening"? If the latter, please go find a life! If the former, I question your tastes but lets just leave things at that.</cha-la-head-cha-la.>

If you don't like Cha-La Head Cha-La, there's definitely something wrong with you.

It's more likely there's something right with me, while everyone else is wrong.
…
In other news, and to make this post less off-topic, what is "high definition"? Is it like what Eva looks like on DVD? If so, WHAT'S THE BIG DEAL? The show still looks dated!
-

The picture won't look like shit anymore. That's all you need to know.
But this "remastering" will be for nothing because of this "widescreen" thing.
EDIT: Cha-la is one of the best anime openings ever.

if only we could pool opinions to create truth
Anyways, why is this happening now anyways? dont they already have dvds? i guess people will do anything to have HD everything

Insulting those who like a particular thing you don't, then making a statement in which the maturity level is comparable to that of a spoiled 6-year-old?
Very nice. golf clap

Have you seen what FUNimation was doing with the DBZ DVDs? TOEI gave them bad masters and they messed the footage up even more by increasing the color saturation AND they released 3 episodes per DVD not to mention the actual picture quality of the DVDs were bleh.
They also haven't released the whole series in an uncut, billingual format (they stopped before the Namek saga.) yet at an affordable price.
So there is a reason why this is very exciting…besides the whole widescreen thing.
-
I fucking love Ch-La Head Cha-La, a classic.
Anyways, for this release, only time will tell.
-
Considering how DBZ was made with 80s quality animation (although I know it was good animation for its time), I don't see the point of making an HD version of it.
Crappy animation was part of the fun of it!

Crappy animation doesn't need crappy picture quality.
