Well, I guess the first movie's dub wasn't so bad after all. The much talked-about Pokémon Chronicles series begins with this episode, and what an episode it is. 4Kids manages to make everyone forget everything good they've done with the Pokémon franchise in the past seven years by completely botching this special up in every way imaginable. There are so many screw-ups, mistranslations, and needless edits that you'd think 4Kids was intentionally trying to piss us all off.
Dogasu on the English dub of The Legend of Thunder
"I think Carl [Macek] was unfairly maligned. And the thing is, he would sometimes butt heads with fans and other people in the industry -- he was certainly opinionated. But as time passed, people have realized he wasn't trying to 'bastardize' the works. Ninety percent of the characterizations and underlying drama of the original series were intact. He did what he had do to get these shows he genuinely loved onto the air."
Tommy Yune, creative director of Harmony Gold USA, quoted by Jeff Yang, The 'Robotech' master (SFGate)

There is nothing to stop American films, records, books, and paintings from being sold to a foreign entity or egotistical gangsters and having them change our cultural heritage to suit their personal taste.
George Lucas, in 1988, protesting colorization, macekre, and special editions
  • Mind you he said that PRIOR to his big Special Edition re-releases of Star Wars.
