Thoughts about Dragon Ball Z: Fukkatsu No F/Revival of "F"/Resurrection 'F'



After reading the synopsis of "Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F'", I have only these improvement suggestions for Toriyama:
 1) Despite the noticeable attempt of promoting Akira Toriyama's brand new "Jaco the Galactic Patrolman" character through the movie, there was a place for putting Chiaotzu (Yu Yu Hakoshu kept his counterpart there going till the end & didn't replaced him for some time-traveling teen), Yamcha, Goten, Trunks & Majin Buu involved in the fight against Frieza's 1,000 henchmen.  Even the weakling Master Roshi took part in the battle.

2) It wouldn't be a shame to break out the conception that Goku is the character who always wins. Having Vegeta giving Frieza the final blow won't be a degrading event but rather an epic concluding one.

3) If you're bringing back the scouters, at least give us some power levels' statements, man... We all know that's the major reason DB got it's fame from the first place and the discussions about this concept kept it in mind for so long (Akira knows that, he made his living out of this).
4) Both Frieza's new golden form and the new blue haired Super Saiyan god form (used by Goku & Vegeta) aren't something remarkable in terms of design, honest personal opinion.  And the story introduced here makes no sense as there's a big plot hole to justify why ANY OF THESE FORMS haven't been in use during the (created 20+ years ago) late Dragon Ball Z or Dragon Ball GT.
5) This movie as canon actually discards all of the events involving Frieza in his aftermath in DBZ, such as his joining forces with King Cold (his father), Cell & the dead Ginyu Force members and terrorizing hell, and his redicolous defeat by the hands of teen Gohan (who himself was degraded to a weakling as the franchise advanced) while escaping hell & leading the franchise's villains in "Fusion Reborn". Better think of an explaination to that.
