Not of the movie, but the tv cartoon show!
That right, i am finally a fan of DBZ, so im one of you guys. After ignoring that cartoon, i finally bought season 3, Frieza saga, and IM HOOKED!.
I recently bought Season 4, Garlic JR., Trunks, Android pt.1 sagas and i cant stop watching it.
Trekker, i know you hate the show and rip on it for NO reason, but watch a couple episodes and youll see its better than Power Rangers, and most of the stuff you like. Seriously.

Oh man I'm just glad I'm not the only one lol I watched DBZ faithfully for years starting at ten years old (I'm twenty now), I loved the show then but I have to admit that when I got older I really got sick of watching the normal, cut up english dubs.
But recently I followed a friend's advice and started watching the new full season uncuts, starting with the very first episode, and I'm hooked all over again. It's amazing that the violence isn't even that HUGE of a difference, it's just the humor and some of the subject matter, but it really makes a difference.
I'm up to the Goku vs Frieza fight, I haven't reached the Super Saiyan bit yet, just watched the ordeal with Bulma and Ginyu. It's great though, I've really gotten into this show again, and it's really a great way to get the horrible taste of Evolution out of your mouth.
GT was OK, but I never really got into it. In my opinion there are only three forms of Super Saiyans. BUT, one that should be considered instead if I were you is Dragonball. It's not as action oriented, though the action is still good, it actually has great humor and gives you a great look into so many of the origins that's it's definately worth a look.

Glad you're enjoying it. Once you finish the series, go straight to the original DragonBall show. It's different in tone since it's more adventure than action, but if you like the characters you'll have a blast seeing them.
Agreed, I love Dragonball because it's different. I'm not trying to compare this to the films exactly but the idea, in how Dragonball to DBZ is sort of like Alien to Aliens. Same characters, same idea and same world, but very different in style and even in genre in ways.
Dragonball is great on lighthearted, sometimes playfully adult humor with good action on the side. I actually watched Dragonball after DBZ, and it's just as good in chronilogical order or as a 'prequel'.

Have you watched any of the movies yet? That's what got me hooked several years back. The History of Trunks, The Cooler saga, and the Broly movies were pretty sweet. Also Super Android 13 just to name a few.
No i didnt, but i think im going to pick those up too. This show seriously does rock, cant believe i held off watching this for years, jeezus. The history of Trunks looks/sounds cool, he's a pretty cool character. I got three more episodes left in season 4, and gotta pick up season 5 today. These Androids are tough, like damn!

I remember the original Dragonball when i was a kid, but not much, i remember loving the show.
Is GT worth watching?

I caught the first episode of GT when they started airing it on Cartoon Network. Didn't like it. From what I've heard, not many like it either. But if you wanna check it out later, go ahead.
To give a little history bit, DB ran from 1986-1989 and DBZ ran from 1989-1996, that's 10 straight years that the network had been airing. When the creator was just finishing off DBZ for good, the network didn't want it to end so they decided to make the third show, GT, without the creator's involvement. It only lasted for about a year.
I've been wanting to rewatch the original two shows for awhile, so if I do maybe I'll watch all of GT.
If your having trouble acquiring the uncut remasterings of DBZ, then I definately suggest this. A guy on Youtube has uploaded just about every episode in the series, apparently because he gives the proper credits Youtube actually leaves them alone and let's him upload as he pleases. He's uploaded the entire series up until near the end of the Kid Buu saga, but he should have the end of the series up soon.

I stand with Longshot and Bats on this one. I will never watch or never get hooked into that horrible Japanese animation. I have seen parts of it when I was a kid and hated it and I still do today period.
Oh Cartoon Network or other kid networks all suck nowadays anyways. They don't show the good stuff anymore. Now I have to buy all the great cartoon classics on DVD that I enjoyed and grown up with. I don't really watch cartoons anymore except just the ones I own on DVD.
You all can go ahead watch your precious DB and other anime that you enjoy so much and I will stick with my American animation that I enjoyed so much.

Dragonball was originally split into the following sagas:
Emperor Pilaf
World Martial Arts Tournament
Red Ribbon Army
General Blue
Commander Red
Fortune Teller Baba
Tenshinhan
King Piccolo
Piccolo Jr
The remastered seasons may combine a few of them.
As for GT, no I don't recommend it. The animation's bad, it's riddled with plot holes, and the story's crap. It really tells that Akira Toriyama didn't write it. But definately check out Dragonball. I prefer it over DBZ. It's not as over the top, you never hear the words "power level", the fights are more about skill and technique, the humans are actually significant, and it's damn hilarious a lot of the time.
thats true, it was funny as hell
but I liked DBZ over DB only becasue I love the fights, love alot more of the characters and better bad guys. Including the movies, like Broly, Janemba, Cooler, bardock, Gogeta, all that cool stuff.

and you know what, I only say stay away from GT when your done with everything else, cuz you will be interested. I know i saw DBZ first, then DB and after all that, I saw Gt and I was let down but now that I'v seen everything else, I just watch here and there to see something new. Doesn't mean I like it, but I can tolerate it.
Still thougt, watch DB, and DBZ and maybe other anime before you even go into the same room as a DBGT dvd
also, your in the Majin Buu saga? tell me when your done with the one after, I want to know what you think of Vegito hehehe

Loved The Cell Saga and there were a lot of memorable scenes in the Buu Saga that just made me feel hopeful and believe in good.
