So been catching bits and pieces of this here and there.

My favourite part is still Piccolo cutting off Frieza's How many Nameks..... joke.

That and that scene in the 4 abridged movie where Piccolo is introduced with Stone Cold Steve Austin's theme.

Oh, and Vegeta getting kicked in the dick in the 6th movie, which is still my personal movie (and that's both versions).....

Oh and Coola's planting of his dumb-ass tree.

Anyway, I'm both looking forward to and dreading how they handle both the full power super saiyan training, and Goku forcing Gohan to fight Cell, considering that Gohan is becoming more and more disillusioned with his father (even if it's played for laughs).

Ah. That dumb-ass tree is still one of my top 5 gags from this series.

...

5. Bulma hitting on Trunks, and Trunks screaming inside his own head.

4. Kai Episode 2. Frieza yelling, "What the goddamn shit just happened!"

3. Gohan punching giant fish out of the water and the narrator going, "Oh sweet bloody christ, no."

2. Cooler: I'ma plant me a DUMB-ASS tree!

1. Vegeta: I am an adult. (knees Gohan in the stomach)

My Top 5:

1) Vegeta: Oh trust me. There's more than one way to realize the legend. Flashback Vegeta: I wanna. I wanna be a Super Saiyan. I wanna, I wanna, I wanna. Present Vegeta: Push ups. Sit ups. And plenty of juice.

2) Turtle: Why aren't you upstairs sleeping with your girlfriend like everyone else.

3) First off, no one screws Yamcha, but life.

4) Did I just see his foot?

5) Row, row, row your boat.

My top 5 bits, in no particular order would probably be:

Goku asking Frieza if he even knows what a minute is.

The before mentioned "I need an adult" bit.

Vegeta's Christopher Walken/Reeves joke.

Vegeta going "My mother is dead" with a character following up with "I know."

Cell's rendition of "Mr. Sandman"

I make the Christopher Reeves joke to this day, and King Vegeta killing the guy for giving a Mathematician's Answer was what got me hooked on the series, but I couldn't possibly make a top 5.

#7736: Sep 7th 2014 at 5:51:54 PM

My favorites:

1. Councilor Nappa: "You look him right in the eye, and you say: 'Don't blow up my planet.'" "And you think that will work?" "He'd have to be awfully evil if it didn't...and, not gonna lie: I like the cut of his jib!"

2. "When Freeza finds out, he's going to...going to..." "Oh, don't mind me! By all means...give me some ideas."

3. "I'm going to put you down like Ol' Space Yeller!" "HOW IS THAT A THING."

4. "You...you insane bastard!" "One hundred and ninety." "Well, we're going to...FUCK YOUR FACE!" "Ha ha ha...twelve."

5. "NAIL! DO WE HAVE A VISITOR?" "Yes, Lord Guru." "NAIL! TAKE HIS COAT!" "He doesn't have a coat, sir. Also, I believe this is the man who basically murdered our entire race." "...Nail...don't take his coat."

Yes, Freeza was my favorite, why do you ask?

Runner-up: "Why did you heal Krillin?" "The better question is, why did I tell him he was immortal?" Which is impressive mostly for the wy it rewrote canon to fit their characterization.

Outside of Freeza, most of my favorite moments come from the movies.

A random favorite line from Freeza:

"You're bluffing."
"Am I? Am I really?"
<fast forward through him powering up and destroying a large amount of the surrounding area>

I love that abruptly fast forwarding through huge explosion gag, and I really liked that they brought it back with Cell.

And that would be my number 6. Screw the rules.

[up]

[lol]

Cell: First, I have been asleep for decades, so I am understandably thirsty. Second - there is nothing greater than the rush I get from watching a person disappear. And third, RAAAAAH! (powers up) That, that is how I power the beautiful temple that is my body.

Something about that last sentence just sells it.

Two of my favorite lines happen in quick succession.

"Wait, my son, the planet, or me?" "...Yes." *Shoom!*

And

"How did you know the parts you weren't there for?" "..." *transforms*

I like how they manage to make each of the transformations comical. From the Kaio-WHAT joke, to Goku going SS in Kai 2, to Nail distracting Piccolo while Frieza transformed...

Freeza: Wait! Wait! Wait! I… I know I’ve done a lot of terrible things, killed quite a number of people, some of which you liked, but may I ask you as one neighbor to another, can you spare a cup of energy?

Goku: Wellllllll……

King Kai: [Telepathically] NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO! NO……

Tien: I’m not even asking anymore.

King: Kai: [Telepathically] NO!

Goku: Unngh! [Goku gives Freeza energy] Now be responsible with this energy, don’t use to hurt anymore people, or on the drugs.

Freeza: What, but why?

Goku: I’m gonna go now, got a long trip home. I’d ask if I could take one of your legs with me but you’re probably hungry too. Bye! [Flies away]

Freeza: [Thinking] He’s really just leaving me here. He gave me his energy and left me. Maybe this is a sign. Maybe I should change. Maybe this is my second and last chance. Maybe I was wrong.

Freeza: Naaaaaaaahhhhhh! [Fires energy blast]

Has Dr Briefs ever shared a scene with Master Roshi in the original? I can imagined how Abridged Roshi would react once he sees Briefs' wife. [lol]

I think they interacted in filler during the Frieza/Freeza Saga when Chi-Chi's trying to use a spaceship to go to Namek and get Gohan. I usually fast forward that filler on those occasions I watch the Frieza/Freeza Saga.
