like, humour is subjective and all, but i can't imagine being a Dragon Ball fan and not enjoying at least some of Toriyama's comedy to the point that you'd call him painfully unfunny. i know it becomes a lot more punchmans at the exact time that it was exposed to most westerners but it still has a lot of his sense of humour throughout

I think the funniest bit in BOG is when everyone literally stands up and claps to congratulate Vegeta for not turning evil again.

TheHan posted:I was so adverse to a CG Dragonball film that I assumed when they said “This isn’t in the film” meant it obviously wouldn’t be CG cause nobody would like that. Maybe we’ll get some good angles of Goku’s hosed up hair model though. That hair should give animators a big head ache.

And it’s start to get actually fun once it starts becoming what Z was

Blockhouse posted:maybe - and just hear me out here - comedy is wildly subjective and a "yuh-huh/nuh-uh" style argument over humor is the most tedious loving thing on the planet I don't know what you're talking about, conversations like this always end in one party going "you know what? You're actually totally right after all" and aren't tedious at all

If the whole movie is just Grandpa Piccolo and Krillin getting into trouble trying to keep Pan away from these alien super villains like it's Baby's Day Out it will be a 200/10 movie.

So has Piccolo always had a house because I always thought he was homeless based on the fact he was either living in the wilderness, the lookout or looming over Gohan's home.

Piccolo having a house makes sense, given we never really see him in his downtime at night. He has to have somewhere to go!

Ah that promo... I hope they animate on 2s and not 3s. The first season of Dragon Prince was on 3s to “be like anime” and it looked real bad except for a few action scenes where the animators kept really careful track of spacing.

He's conserving energy. If Piccolo was on Namek he could train all the time and be unstoppable. In this essay I will

Supposition: King Piccolo does not wish for youth first, instead he wishes for Earth to become exactly like Namek. Life must now adapt to the weird new conditions.

Toriyama's pretty good at a certain kind of goofy, mostly physical comedy, I think. I feel that ends up translating well to action scenes.

a lot of early db aged fine and there are some good jokes in there, like krillin realizing he doesn't have a nose. but occasionally toriyama can't help but have roshi creep on bulma or something like that and those jokes always sucked

Early dragon ball was mid 80s. I'm pretty sure that American media had a lot of problematic poo poo then.

Is anyone in this thread actually giving a pass to, say, extremely rapey 80s American comedies? The treatment seems equal to me.
