Can wait for Toriyama to retcon expectations built over the last 30 years. :roll:
"I like the money it brings in, but Dragon Ball Heroes is the worst. That's actually the real reason I decided to start working on new material. I was afraid Bandai would make something irredeemably stupid like Super Saiyan 4 Broly." - Akira Toriyama, made up interview, 2013.

This is a given, man. Every arc in dragon ball had something that contradicted something.

It doesn't make any sense if there is a formidable foe out there that will push our cast of saiyans in sadal,i much rather have an origin if anything as long there in Sadal,i won't be complaining.

I wonder if the movie will be canon. Even movies 14 and 15 got retconned (somewhat) when Super's episode adaptions changed things around a little.

Probably not in Sadla, but in the Universe 6.

The retellings don't make BoG and RoF less 'canon' in the anime continuity.

This is sounding like it's going to be a Yasmoshi movie. And if they could go ahead and retcon Episode of Bardock, that would be ok.

I was trying not to get my hopes up that it would be a Toriyama-written film with characters designed by him, but now I am pleasantly surprised!

If that foe is so strong how come U6 never recruited him.I think U12 is the perfect candidate for this,they mentioned something interesting about the time traveler.
    Smelling a retcon or something weird added to the lore in this movie.

    Well, who says this movie is before the Tournament Of Power? It could be pretty much after.

    How come you thought it would be a purely Toei movie? Since Battle Of Gods (2013) we're getting Toriyama involved in the series (manga/anime/movies)

    Personally , I am super excited about an origin movie and finding out about Yamoshi and his transformation and finding out about saiyan legends I love stuff about lore .
    I feel like characters like the GoDs, Hit , Whis all could have awesome origin movies and I'd be excited if we ever got them

    It actually sounds pretty good. To be honest, since the introduction of SSG, I had always wanted something like this. Saiyans have to come from somewhere, just like their Oozaru and God ki forms. I don't think they would actually do a movie without Goku and Vegeta nowadays, so I suppose they will go to Sadala or something and then we will have some nice flashbacks.

    Depending of your definition of "canon" , BoG and RoF can always be more canon than Super's anime version of the events.

      Uh Goten and Trunks are stronger than every human on the team and they didn't bring them.

      Not that I agree with him but why would U6 had the same U7 logic about recruiting people? :eh:

      What if this movie retcons the Saiyans as being descendent from God's?

      It isn't so much that I thought it would be a purely Toei movie as it was I was worried that Toriyama was preparing to lessen his involvement with the franchise, given that the Dragon Ball Room now exists and he's seemingly been grooming Toyotarō to become the new story writer for the series, even referring to Toyotarō as his successor.

      That would be odd but interesting.... And also, that's more of an unexplained explanation or reveal, not a retcon.

      While its possible they go to sadala, i don't think going to sadala is gonna help the u7 saiyans know about their universe saiyans origins. They didn't even know about each other until the tournament and u6 saiyans had never heard of super saiyan let alone super saiyan god

      if u6 had fighters who could give goku or vegeta problems they would be in the tournament. even u7 went and got freeza of all people and champa doesn't care about the type of person you are see frost.
