おはようございます!
(Hello)
In two weeks I will be going to Japan to film footage for my YouTube show. While I am there, I will be stopping by the Toei Animation studio to see if I can ask a few questions on the possibility of bringing the DragonBall Z: Battle of Gods movie to America sooner than later. On top of that I want to show certain companies how much we love the DragonBall series and would love to see the film in iMax here in the States. Below is a video I did regarding this subject,

This is equivalent to walking up to the BBC and saying "I want you to
bring over that new Doctor Who series."
1) Dragonball Z is a well-known series and you can be assured the Japanese
have been told by the people who are paying the big bucks how popular it is.
This isn't some obscure unlicensed show. They already know that people love
Dragonball Z.
2) Decisions about how soon to bring it over or whether to put it in Imax
are marketing decisions that can't be influenced by an individual fan.
They're going to sell it when they think it makes the most money, not when
the fans want it.
3) In the big picture, having a Youtube show isn't much. Toei won't think
someone is important for having a Youtube show. You'll just sound like
a weeaboo.
4) You don't have an ongoing business relationship with Toei, so you're
going to be trying to make a business deal from scratch. Moreover, a business
deal where you have absolutely nothing to offer (like, you know, *money*).
Toei is still a business and won't change their plans out of the kindness of
their heart just because you really want Dragonball Z.
5) You probably don't speak Japanese anyway.

There are still several Dragonball movies & OVAs that have yet to come
out in the US, for whatever reason:
Dragon Ball Z: Plan to Destroy the Saiyans (1993)
Dragon Ball: Yo! The Return of Son-Goku and Friends!! (2008)
Dragon Ball: Plan to Destroy the Super Saiyans (2010)
Dragon Ball: Episode of Bardock (2011)
If YouTube guy thinks he can stop this one from falling through the
cracks, more power to him.

The chance that Toei has not already been asked by Funimation about these
is zero.
