I don't get it. None of the movies are canon, what makes this one different?

The creator of Dragon Ball said it was canon.
There may be other reasons but thats the one I know.

@Psycho Toriyama also said BoG and RoF were canon, didn't he? That was later retracted. You never know if this one will get retconned by a new series.

@Weeb when the movie was announced
@Phoenix As I said there may be other reasons but thats one of them and for now it means this one is canon (and will be unless its changed)

Not really. GT is a continuation of Z, but it's not canon. He was heavily involved in the two DBS movies too, but they're not canon either. I still haven't seen a link to him saying it's canon either.AKM sama said:

@Super
The DBS movies were retconned by DBS. They were initially canon. The same goes for this.

BoG and RoF were canon until retconned by Super so using them as evidence doesn't work as they were blatantly retconned.

lol i ain't digging around the web to find a quote for you. Find it yourself, or stop using that as an arguement.PsychoWarper said:

Its currently canon, once the anime continues it will incorporate the movie into the anime (like with Battle of the Gods) and the movie will no longer be canon when that happens. Until then its canon.

Its was never retracted, BoG and RoF movie is still canon to the movie timeline, and it is also canon to the DBS manga that is made by Toyotaro and supervised by Akira Toriyama.

Dude, that doesn't mean anything. Yeah, it has an original story by Toriyama. That doesn't make it canon though.Sigurd Snake in The Eye said:

Hmmm good point, now I wonder if DBZ is canon. And Jaco. And DB.

LOL no it isn't! What "movie timeline" are you talking about? It's not canon to the DBS manga, there's a BoG arc and a RoF arc in the manga! But even if it was canon to the "movie timeline" and to the manga, guess what? Neither of those are canon! Xenoverse is canon to the Xenoverse timeline (DB Online, DB Xenoverse, DB Heroes, etc.), but that doesn't make Xenoverse canon to the main timeline!InfiniteBlack123 said:

By that logic, DBS had relatively little input from Toriyama, guess that's not canon.SomebodyData said:

Well it looks like everything that isnt the Manga is non canon guys since Toriyama hasnt totally and completely outright stated that it is 100% canon ovo.
