Madbunny made a Dragon Ball Z video! Travesty or Triumph?

There is a fairly descriptive.. uh.. description on the download page.

In short, I lost a bet, and had to make a Dragon Ball Z video. Not only that but I needed to do it to a song that was WAY out of the norm for DBZ videos. This is the result. Originally this was supposed to be 'straight parody', but as has been pointed out to me, that's just a normal video that someone might find amusing.

Video is 512x384 xvid
Audio is lame 192
Length is 3:30

Forgive the file size, I tried everything I could to reduce it without having it look like dirt. I now have lots of respect for those guys (and gals) that get this stuff looking good with a small file size.

Download it, feel free to tell me how much you hate it. If you happen to actually like it (not beyond reason since I did what I could with the song, and managed to make it fit reasonably well. See description for story elements.) and other than the quality issues I'm 'reasonably happy' with it.

Lots of thanks to everyone that encouraged the creation of this travesty. Ironically it's not nearly so bad as I'd expected.

With a song like that to DBZ how could I not love this vid?

I'm downloading it now.

Woohoo. I was worried that making Paragas into a Diva might piss off some of the die hards.

Yeah.. he does look sort of constipated in those parts doesn't he?

I'm shocked, I thought there was nothing that would make me download a DBZ video. In another 7 minutes I'll see if I'm shocked again by liking a DBZ video.

constipated is the correct word for how he looks
a father that gets bi#^&ed by his own son

Is there such a thing as 'evil lip-sync'? Well...

now there is

I sort of think of it like Darth Vader singing an Andy Gibb, or Bee Gees song to convince Luke to join the dark side.

I tried to keep it as non-gay as I could, but having Paragas lip sync lines like "make me a woman who can survive" sort of implies a few things.

On the Plus side, I've just gotten my worst review ever! Someone who says that it's like "having 5 minutes ripped from his soul". Pretty impressive for a 3.5 minute video I thought.
