Agreed! If they made remade or just created a new Dragonball series that looked like the opening from Kai, it would be insane!.. Although I personally would prefer a whole new series. We first had the regular DBZ, then DBZ Uncut, then DBZ Kai, not to mention that every game (though a lot were awesome)just rehashed the DBZ story. We need something new and fresh.

Just more money in the pockets of the people who produce Super Sentai! I'm fine with that. I actually wouldn't mind them releasing uncut DBZ DVD dubbed in English.
