"It's awesome to know FUNImation is giving the same treatment to the movies as they are to the TV series. Now, I know a lot of people have been complaining and protesting the decision to make DBZ widescreen. But it's not the end of the world. I mean, sometimes the crops don't make that huge of a differance a majority of the time. Besides, it makes the whole viewing experience seem like a movie. Would I have prefered it if FUNImation released the series in fullscreen? Yeah absolutely, but the widescreen doesn't bother me.

Now, the movies are great. If anyone else got the double-feature release, they would've noticed the inner packet has a two-star dragonball on it (the Trunks/Bardock feature has a one-star ball). The movie also features a preview for the next double-feature release, Tree of Might/Lord Slug, which will probably be released around the same time the Season Six box set comes out. If that's the case, I think we can expect 7 steelbook releases from FUNImation. After Tree of Might/Lord Slug, it will probably go with the two Cooler movies naturally. Then I think they should release Super Android 13/Bojack Unbound together so that way the next release would be the Broly trilogy. This would leave the final installment as Fusion Reborn/Wrath of the Dragon. I'm really looking forward to this."

"I do like the films but I only could watch them on my computer and not the usual Playstation 2 or DVD player. All the other DBZ DVDs I have brought from USA have all worked on my DVD player and PS2. When are the Double Features coming to Australia on the PAL setting?"

First time in the USA in widescreen!

"Yes for the season sets and the TV specials widescreen is bad. That was a bad move on FUNi's part. Though for this release, Widescreen is OK. Ya wanna know why? In Japan the DBZ movies were animated 4:3 (Which is what we got on DVD and VHS previously) but the movies were cropped 16:9 for theatrical showing. All the essential action is animated in the area that nothing important is cropped. So it really boils down to this. If you have a widescreen TV or not. I dont, so i didnt like the widescreen season sets, but if watched on a widescreen TV it dosent matter.

The Movies are top notch. They're definatly made for the DBZ fan. There meant to be enjoyed as entertainment not art, so the animation is kinda sloppy. But its all in good fun. If you have a widescreen tv get this DVD or if you can, the blu-ray. If you have a 4:3 TV, the first strike box will do just nicely."

I love all DBZ

"Both movies were fantastic and both were re-mastered to perfection. The revised dialog with the original Japanese audio was great.

I especially enjoyed watching the World's Strongest film the most, because the story was second to none and the accompanying sound track was brilliant.
