That forum has gone crazy, its infested by newbies who are so convinced they correctly interpreted every scene in the most correct fashion or they understand that one snippet of dialogue can only mean whatever.
But very cool images!

One of the reasons I left way back when. Kids think they know everything because they watched a few episodes of the Japanese version once. I've got nothing but respect for VegettoEX and the rest of the staff, though (though I don't think I've listened to a podcast in forever).
It's like the NeoGAF of Dragon Ball forums. It gets crazy at times, but is still infinitely more sane/strict than any other Dragon Ball forum. The admins physically spell check posts with god awful spelling/punctuation using bold red letters :lol
Pretty much.
Crazy forum, but I love VegettoEX, Herms, Hujio, etc.
But I've been on Dragon Ball Forums since 2004, I've seen pretty much everything at this point.

I'm still not used to you English people pronouncing "saiyan" as "sayin'" rather than "cyan".
But no one pronounces it that way.

Did anybody here use to be a member of the Planet Namek forums back in the real old days? I think I was still on dial up when I joined back in 2000. It was good fun discussing power levels and all the nonsense from back then when only so few of us had seen everything. I think the site shut down permanently in 2002 or so.
I still remember going back and forth with this crazed Vegeta fan who believed in all his heart that Vegeta from the Buu Saga would have beaten SSJ3 Goku if they had fought. Then their was this guy who repeatedly trolled us by constantly telling us that Superman would beat Goku and always gave a really stupid answer as to why. To us he just seemed like retard at the time because he wasn't debating, just being a idiot. But I see now what he was really doing because he did get under the skin of a lot of us and that was his intent all along. But yeah, it was a great site for DBZ back then. Too bad it went away in such a short time.

That was probably me.
Did anyone see ScrewAttacks' Goku Vs Superman video?
There is a scene in BoG where Vegeta is said to be stronger than SSJ3 Goku, lol
As far as I can tell that's an original track. I've never heard of it before.
Hoshi is nonsense from fans relabeling animation from the video games as a new series. Absalon is a fan made series with original animation.
Goku's like 12 when he first meets Bulma ... Anyways, Toriyama did state he had plans on making their relationship a romantic one but he dropped that since he can't write romance. Honestly, their relationship is pretty sibling like anyways.
You have to remember that both Goku and Chi-Chi grew up in seclusion. Goku had never met another human being outside of Grandpa Gohan until he was 12. Chi-Chi had a more normal life than that, but she still came from a small village.

Well thats how the anime says it. I grew up with that so thats what I say myself.

What the hell does him being 12 have to do with their relationship in the future? Bulma still saw him in a different light once he grew up.

Goku and Bulma had a huge build up. Almost as much as Goku and Krillin or Goku and Master Roshi. Chi Chi popped up and disappeared soon after and gone awol for a long time. Goku and Bulma I would say is one of the biggest relationship in Dragonball, behind Krillin. They even had a saga with just the 2 of them.

Which is why I despised ChiChi and Goku as a couple.
Bulma was a far better character and INFINITELY less annoying.

She was always bitching about him as well. She's very fickle and swoons over any pretty boy.
dumb question maybe
Bulma reaching into her panties for her diamond
in that episode when goku, krillin and bulma escape from the pirates cave (after they defeat general blue), Bulma is hiding a diamond down into her crotch and then Krillin smells the diamond Bulma gave to him cuz he is a perv..WTF is this he doesnt have a nose right?

You're right, but I felt like that changed once Goku grew up. That didn't last though because that is exactly when Chichi showed up again.
At one point the English anime says Bardock was a brilliant scientist. Do you agree with that?
You mentioned that you were watching Dragon Ball, and said Goku could've got with her. When someone mentions Goku and Bulma's relationship that's pretty much when he was a kid. 12 year old Goku isn't going to care about that, and by the time he could Bulma was in a relationship with Yamcha, and Goku was to be married. I never really felt their relationship was a romantic one either.

It's a joke. He doesn't have a nose. The fact that he doesn't have one is also a joke.
Krillin IS Goku's best friend since childhood; that's why the loss of him on Namek was part of his trigger for unlocking SSJ.
Bulma, on the other hand, is boy-crazy and goes for any prettyboy, so Goku and her were never "intended" to hook up. Besides, Goku barely understands sex in general, even as an adult.

To be honest, I think Gohan or Bulma dying would have triggered him also.
Sex must have been awkward.

fuckin' called it, man
Isn't there a time where he specifically says he doesn't have a nose?
Yeah, but remember this is Dragonball era, when it was mostly a gag manga still.
When he fought that odor guy in the 21st Budokai, I think.
When Krillin fights Bacterian in the 21st World Martial Arts tournament Goku points out that he doesn't has a nose and therefore shouldn't be affected by his stench.

Official pronunciation it seems. By "sayin" I mean "I'm just sayin".
Hmm I guess.
I actually like the local dub before they used Tagalog dub, especially how they gave Vegeta a weird snobbish accent :/
She grew up in a castle pampered by her father and the things he stole/conned/threatened others out of. Then they lived in a small village at the base of the mountain (but her dad still pampered her)

It's kinda sad we don't see much of Chichi's lineage in her sons.
I liked it.
If anything, Vs. Frieza had the poor adaption. There was literally an episode where all they did was stare at each other and flashback.
Since Toonami?

I always thought Gohan's rage powerup was from her. I don't think it's supported, but it would have been funny.
For a filler arc, the Garlic Jr arc did have some nice design (White Suit Kuririn, short hair Yamcha, etc.)
Sub.
I find it amusing though.

I'm okay with dubs if they generally capture the spirit of the show, but DBZ never really did that. The dub has a kind of nostalgic appeal for me and is fun to riff on, but I usually just watch the Japanese version.
If the whole show had a Kai quality dub I'd watch that.

Then yeah, if I was gonna watch Kai, I'd watch the dub. Not all that interested in doing that, though.

Hideous redone scenes.
I still prefer Kai but god those scenes take me out of it

It looks like it was edited on Windows Movie Maker or something.
