So we started our DBZ movie reviews back up this week with....Bio-Broly. It was terrible but...actually not the worst one. We briefly considered putting it as the best Broly movie since the whole thing is as long as the actual setup in the first Broly movie, but nah. We also talked about Goku's mortgage, whether Goten and Trunks think wrestling is real, and the employment rating of DBZ wasteland shamans. (the timestamp for Bio-Broly is in the description)

"We named our Pokémon in Pokémon Go after rappers and Autocorrect and we're not afraid to discuss it for a completely unreasonable amount of time. We also further refine the Jason Bourne Formula with our review of The Bourne Ultimatum and continue reviewing Dragon Ball Z movies for some reason with Dragon Ball Z: Bio-Broly. Then we talk about how Samuel L. Jackson is really just a Quentin Tarantino character, brainstorm about how to corner the cereal bar market, try to dig Tim out of his CW superhero show hole, and come to the horrifying realization that Elektra was probably the last female-led superhero movie."

DBZ Movie Ranking:

Piccolo out of Piccolo:
1. The World's Strongest

Pretty sure one of them even aired on Adult Swim.

Edit: Nope, TWO of them. Diamond Dust Rebellion & Memories of Nobody

Fun fact: It seems DDR (lol) was the first movie that Adult Swim aired in HD....& it was aired 3 months after MoN.
 
I remember Diamond Dust Rebellion and Fade to Black being bad.

I remember Hell Verse being decent.

I don't think I ever saw Memories of Nobody.
 
By the way, I never got to talk much about Bojack Unbound on here, but having just edited that episode (it was recorded a long-ass time ago), that's another one where the fan following for it surprises me. I thought all the villains were boring and that the plot kinda went nowhere while once again taking a little long to get going; also couldn't really tell you any standout moments beyond "Goku instant-transmissions out of the afterlife to punch Bojack in his fucking face," which is admittedly pretty awesome.

We'll get ratings tomorrow.

Reactions were rather positive, and the dub sounded great, especially Viz got Chris Sabat to voice the Piccolo look-alike & Papenbrook for the Titan look-alike.

how badly do you think they're going to edit the OPM soing next week

Hopefully Demarco is smart enough to get that shit on full. That's the best OP of the night, and barring a Fist of the North Star entry, or a Ping Pong entry to the block, it will probably remain the best OP the block will ever see.

It's a Viz dub so it probably won't get a cut at all. Just an awkward fade out like the other ones.

Not to be a nitpicky asshole, but the fadeaways are still considered cuts

What I'm trying to say is that we should all band together to get Fist of the North Star on Toonami

fades >>>>>>>>>>>> cuts

On average, I agree. The main reason I prefer fades however has more to do with them not screwing with the animation. Viz is the worst. Those Final Act and Naruto endings look ridiculous at fast-forward speed. There have been a couple of good cuts tho.

The TOONAMI versions of both SAO I openings are frankly superior to the normal TV cuts of those songs. KlK is almost as good.

Bleach needs to come back.
I think we can safely say now that Bleach is never coming back. They can't even go the "decent OVA in twenty years" route since the last arc is too long.

I guess they could remake the entire series in disappointing CG if they really wanted to.
