Most disappointing dub

Oh that one, man, one of the poorly dubbed Jakie Chan films ever.

Excel Saga's dub is disgusting, but it doesn't bug since I'm not a big fan of the show either.

Laputa has a pretty bad dub. It's not that the voice actors are bad, it's that: 1. They are really picky on how to pronounce Laputa
2. There's talking over a lot of scenes that were silent in the sub

However, the absolute worse dub I have ever heard is Great Teacher Onizuka's. Lucas does a commendable job at Onizuka himself, but most of the other voices are grating.

I should mention the Crest of the Stars dub. Jinto's voice actor has to be at least thirty.

Thou Shalt Not Cast A Thirty Year Old Voice Actor As A Seventeen Year Old Guy.

Shaman King, thanks to rampant, uncalled for accents (a Tokyo street kid who sounds like Desi Arnez?)

I remember when I bout the DVDs oh-so-long ago, and thought "now lets see what this dub is like" and when the chars started speaking, I just about fell over in disgust, and scrambled for the remote. Had I not found it, I was perfectly prepared to throw my boot at the television.

Kitsune's voice is waaaaay overdone, Kaolla's voice is a fucking pigeonholing (stereotyping) if I ever saw one, Motoko's voice is way too mature, and Mutsumi and Narusegawa's voices are just plain shit. They remove the majority of the jokes (good example-Naru launches Keitaro down the hallway, he hits the wall and slides to the floor, where he says... "Pink... I mean ouch!" in japanese [in relation to narus pantie colour]. In english he says "So thats what if feels like to hold a girls hand". Ugh...*shudder ) and replace them with something that cant even qualify as humour.

Although, it was dubbed by the same people who did Sailor Moon, so that explains the level of suckage.

I will agree with you here Love hina is the worst dub period. Its horrid it dispicable its undescribably bad.

Not to mention some crappy band doing a cover of "I Ran" by A Flock Of Seagulls as the opening theme music. I like that song and that band killed it!
Why didn't they just use "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-A-Lot?

Dude the song "I Ran" is being done by "Bowling For Soup" I can't bleive you like that shitty ass slow flock of sea gulls verson God i hated that one Bowling For Soup's version is much better.And the worst dub was i can't remember the name.But these kids were piloting Machines called Goddesses and they each where branded with a number.And they all had a special skill.

I ran is a great song from the 80s bitch even if flock of seagulls looked more fruity than tucan sam. Modern versions of 80s songs suck ass.

LOL.

Retro, the joys. Addy made an interesting little AMV to said song using Sonic X. I didn't mind that version. I'm guessing I'd prefer it over the cover =/
