Krispy Wafer posted:I enjoyed Never Say Never Again. It wasn't an 'official' Bond movie and could only be made because of a loophole with Thunderball. Connery was supposed to be an old past his prime James Bond, but he was younger than Roger Moore. I watched it a billion times as a kid because we had it recorded off the TV.

Octopussy is my go to "worst James Bond" movie. It's just so loving boring. Pretty much all the Roger Moore ones are bad but at least Live and Let Die and Moonraker are bonkers

StrangersInTheNight posted:DBZ is two shows, a fighting show and a slice of life anime, and I very much prefer when it does the latter I like the crazy training sequences. The fighting would be better if every fight didn't last about five times longer than it does. When they redo the movie fights in Super they wreck the pacing by making them way too long.

All I remember about Octopussy is that it features Indian professional Tennis player Vijay Armitraj in it, and in one scene he hits someone with a tennis racket.

Ghost Leviathan posted:Dragon Ball gets a lot of mileage about how the idea of action heroes having to go through normal everyday activities between adventures has incredible comedy potential, especially taking the piss out of how their personalities are usually hilariously ill-suited for life outside death-defying hijinx, or just intense enough to make them fun to watch doing pretty much anything. Or both. My favorite part is how Chichi insists that their children get a good education so that when they grow up they have opportunities to do things other than fighting. Unlike, you know, her illiterate husband.

Funny thing is that Master Roshi's training regimen is actually rounded and well thought out for the most part despite its ridiculous intensity, and it becomes a plot point that the Crane Hermit in contrast taught Tien and Chiaotzu advanced techniques but they still needed to count their fingers to do basic math.

Dragon Ball has a weirdly realistic approach to training that I don't think I've seen in really any other anime. I mean yeah, they're obviously doing things that are completely impossible in reality but there's still times where they make a point of showing how it's just as important to rest your body too instead of constantly overtraining it, the Cell saga being the big one there.

That's true, but considering in real life people wear weighted cuffs etc. for fitness that falls under 'Real techniques being amazingly effective' rather than straight-up magic.

My favourite part of the weighted clothes is in DB Abridged when Picollo boasts that he's been fighting with a handicap and takes them off, and Cell asks him how much it weighs '100 KILOS!!!...yeah that concept kind of lost meaning after a while didn't it'

And then he just kills the guy without even trying.

Just to reiterate I was more talking about the attitude towards rest being an important part of training and not so much about whether or not the training itself was realistic

I'm pretty sure Goku Vs. Freiza in Z still holds the world record for longest single fight in a visual medium or something like that. You cut it together and that poo poo's over five hours.

Yeah Kai cuts out a lot of poo poo, like a lot. It could cut out more but that would require a ground up remake which is not what they wanted
