New headcanon: considering the contrast between the more 'heroic' Goku of the Namek arc, and the increasingly selfish and reckless Goku of the Cell arc and beyond (up to Super), I'm gonna say it isn't just coincidence that Goku's personality shifts a bit after the Super Saiyan transformation :P
He lets Vegeta go because he wants to fight him. Same with Piccolo. There was no shift in personality.
Yeah, and this is proven further when, as a Super Saiyan, he decides to stop fighting Freeza and let him go because there's no interest left in the fight. He knows he's won, he doesn't need to kill Freeza to prove that.

I re-watched the OVA about Tarble, and I was wondering: Is he even canon anymore?? In BoG the Movie they mentioned him, but for some reason they didn't in Super. What's the deal with that?

He wasn't mentioned in Super? I'm pretty sure Tarble is canon. Toriyama wrote the special where he appeared. Kinda funny how Vegeta was willing to let the earth blow up because he didn't want to call up his brother, the only other living Saiyan besides Goku in the whole universe.

Because having Bulma's birthday at Capsule Corp is the same as having it on a Cruise Ship :P

No as BoG (movie) is 5 years after the Boo arc while BoG (Super arc) is only 6 months, you cannot consider both.

I thought that Satan giving Goku the money was 6 months after Boo and then BoG was another time skip further than that

I just love how you put "lol" at the end of every post. Is this your trademark? Your signature? Anyway, no, you can't consider both of them canon.

Nah, after Goku got the money he went straight to Kaio's planet, trained for like a couple hours, met Beerus and.....you know the rest.

That's kind of the issue with Super lol
I mean you have the movies, the manga and the anime, all three of them being adaptations from Toriyama's notes lol

It would have been cool if the U6 Saiyans, without Freeza's oppression, had evolved so much that they were born directly in Super Saiyan and could remain in that state without any kind of stamina or energy cost. Y'know, Cell Games style.

I think we can all agree it makes no sense that none of them are Super Saiyans, but I think them just knowing how to go SS1 normally would be too boring. So I think this would be a good spin on the concept.

I think that's kinda what Trunks and Goten are, not exactly but similar.

If the Tournament of Power Took place on Earth, it would have destroyed the planet.
It's not too late. One day, it will be.

That's actually a cool alternative concept for the arc. Instead of the battle on a giant arena, have it as some sort of Hunger Games-style thing where the teams all have the run of a whole planet. Assuming everyone can fly and sense energy, you could have clashes happening all around instead of squeezing everything into one space.

Only question then is, as you said how do you stop them from destroying the planet and b) how do you handle eliminations.

Do the Funimation Dragon Ball Super Blu-rays have English text for the episode title cards and OPs/EDs, like they are broadcast on Toonami? I'm assuming there's only 1 video track, so they replaced the Japanese title cards and credits with the English ones. Unless perhaps there's a second track with the original title cards and credits that plays when selecting the Japanese audio track? I doubt it, though. Just want confirmation.

I read a pretty interesting theory not sure if it was on kanzenshuu or some where else. So the way it goes is they to took Tarble and used him as the base for cabba so we probably never see tarble ever again. Wished I remembered who said it.

MasakoX said something of that nature.
