what else is there to cover in DBZ? They are covering the only time skip in the series, unless they decide to do something between DB and DBZ, but I'm pretty sure people will not be happy with that (lack of Super Saiyans)

They can do movies that takes place after Cell and before the Buu saga or do something totally original instead. I don't think it will be hard to do make more movies or a new show. 2014 is the 30th anniversary, so maybe they will do one big anniversary movie with every character from the series in the movie similar to Let's Go Kamen Riders did over a year ago.

The 14th Z film isn't really part of the Dragon Box collection, so it shouldn't be included but it's FUNimation so who knows.

FUNimation could release it as a BD + DVD Combo than mix up with stuff that belongs to.
FUNimation 2015 Releases I want:
- Kai 2.0 on Blu-ray

I doubt it. Since it isn't a part of DBox material, I couldn't see them putting it in the set as opposed to releasing a DVD/BD single. Not that I'd mind it being in a Dragon Box: The Movies, just that it might mess with the whole "replica aesthetic" that FUNi went with on the Z boxes.

Back in DerekPadula's investigation thread a few months ago, the FUNimation marketing head said that they would like to put it out in the future now that they have a tape, and from the way their comment was worded, I expect it to be on whatever the next Dragon Ball release is. http://www.kanzenshuu.com/forum/viewtop ... 80#p541710

I also hope to see the Harmony Gold dub on the next Dragon Ball release but the biggest obstacle that FUNimation has to overcome regarding releasing the Harmony Gold dub is getting permission from Toei, I bring this up because even though FUNimation wants to include the dub on their next release, if Toei doesn't give them permission to include it then legally they can't, but hopefully they will (I've also got my fingers crossed that FUNi will be able to convince Toei to finally give them creditless versions of the 2nd DB opening and DB movie 3's ending but that's wishful thinking at best).
If anyone has any of the DB/DBZ/DBGT or Maho Tsuaki Sally Japanese single DVD's that they'd be interested in selling send me a PM and I'll see if we can work something out. ;).
