Manga UK have just tweeted the following:
And also #DragonBallZ #ResurrectionOfF is coming!!! We'll have more info soon!


It doesn't really tell us anything, but can we assume it's a reference to a cinematic release?.

Well UKA tweeted this
Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection F will be coming soon to the UK, not long after the US release. Further news to follow on that one!

So it must be theatrical release. At any rate Manga said they'll upload the panel later, so maybe more info was said there?

If what UKA said holds any kind of meaning, then it seems we may get it toward the back end of the Summer, which would be amazing.
Let's cross our fingers that we get a confirmation soon.

EDIT:
UKAnime have now said they believe they were referring to a home video release, as theatrical wasn't mentioned either way.

So after the Earth got blown up how come everyone was freaking out since the Earth dragonballs are gone?

Did they forget that Goku could teleport them all to New Namek and use their dragonballs to restore the Earth?

Death is something scary that hurts. Just because the possibility of resurrecting exists in the DB universe doesn't mean death becomes a trivial matter.

Considering how Piccolo sacrificed all of the Earth's population back in the Boo arc, I'd say it is...

He had no choice. Nobody could stop Buu at the time and Piccolo was visibly upset with it.

I'm aware, but it's still a method of buying time available at any time. They have two methods of revival, three now provided the right conditions are met, and the point stands that we have had an occasion before where innocent people were sacrificed because they could be revived. So, I think it's pretty safe to say that death has become and is a trivial matter for a long time now.

Death is still very much not a trivial matter. Piccolo was physically pained and knew he'd just done something horrible, but he expected it to buy them the time they needed to save who they could and the universe along with them.

Which then backfired as Buu decided to forgo fun and simply perform instant genocide, which also visibly pained him.

So no, not trivial, not flippant.

Well restoring the entire planet and everyone on it had been implied to be taxing on Porunga, and tbh I doubt the Namekians are going to be happy having to hand over the use of their Dragon Balls every time the Earth has a problem.

It's possible sure, but... knowing your family, your kids, your wives and husbands, are all dead... that'll still hurt. A lot.

Agreed. Namek balls especially ruin all tension, and trivialize all death. It's the worst thing to be reintroduced in the Boo arc powered up, and kept around.

From an out-verse perspective then sure death could be seen as pretty trivial, but in-verse it is not the case at all, it is like if someone got shot in leg, they'll know they'll live but does it soften the pain? Absolutely not.

How trivial death is in the series depends on the eyes of the character you're looking through. The Saiyans like Goku and Vegeta seem to look at it as if everything will be okay as long as they have their reset button, while the other warriors are still actually saddened by the events. Normal people, even within our group of heroes, like Bluma still take it the hardest though.

An example is Yamcha treated death like a horrible thing in the end of the Freeza arc, while Bulma was hardly phased by Goku's death. Even Gohan didn't seem that devastated. In the movie they apparently forget the Namek balls exist, which would fix everything anyways.

Bulma took Goku supposedly dying on Namek with a laugh and a big case of whatevs at first. That is until they realized the whole hed be brought back right where Namek used to be.

In fairness, Goku was quite upset that the Earth was gone and chastised himself for not ending it when he had a chance.

So I wouldn't say it doesn't affect them. Just maybe not the same way as others, but it affects them nonetheless.

They also have two sets of Dragon Balls on Earth at that point in time. In addition to that, Bluma has a huge complex over Goku being some sort of invincible hero throughout most of the series. He is pretty much the only character she ever shrugs off, while everyone else she'll feel sad for and the loss of anyone in her family still makes her cry even prior to "F" (see Vegeta's sacrifice against Buu, despite there being options for New Namek).
