FUNimation tries to make movie 1 fit into the story?

Discussion regarding the entirety of the franchise in a general (meta) sense, including such aspects as: production, trends, merchandise, fan culture, and more.

To support Tanooki's hypothesis, in the redub, during the scene where Krillin is standing outside Goku's door, thinking of how to tell Chi-Chi about Goku and Gohan, one of the ways he practices is something along the lines of "Guess what, Gohan has been kidnapped again."

Yes the pre-Cell games flashback does legitimize the point. Also, as far as Movie 1 fitting, it seems necessary that it fit in the year before Dragonball Z episode 1 to legitimaze the later Garlic Junior filler saga.
Problem: Goku didn't SEE Gohan do ANYTHING. He just found him and a damaged tree and was confused. It wouldn't be until later that he actually put the two together, when he actually DID see Gohan's power.

EDIT:
"Guess what, Gohan has been kidnapped again."
IIRC, that was in the first dub as well.

I think Krillin was referring to Gohan's being kidnapped by Raditz before Piccolo took him. Even though she didn't know about that one, that could be what he was talking about.

Yes that was indeed referring to Raditz taking him first then Piccolo.

Ya, that's what I had figured as well. It was kind of odd but it's all that made sense.

Strange. My TV was on Cartoon Network about a week ago and that episode aired. I noticed the same thing and was going to post it here, but as I was posting, I realized the "kidnapped again" remark was probably referring to Radditz and blah blah.

But who knows...

Honestly, when I posted that, that hadn't occured to me. But, Chi-Chi didn't know about the whole Raditz incident, seeing as how it happened only hours before.
