That interested me when I read that a few days ago, but for some reason I didn't think of posting that until now.
Long time ago, though so maybe you've read already.

would he have been nearly as strong at the beginning of the series?
Obviously he'd still have his Saiyan durability, which'd make him be able to take attacks or moves that are way out of his league power-wise without nearly dying or dying, but could he have for example taken a bullet from Bulma...
Everyone at the 21st Tenkaichi-Budokai surpassed Beginning of DragonBall Goku? I mean the main-tournament, not counting the qualifying matches.
I'd say so. Other than maybe Ran-Fan.
I (re-?)watched Movie 4 yesterday. I liked that very much.
But I think IIRC my favourite was either Movie 3 or Movie 5. Which-ever-one takes place on a plane. I definitely think Kaito-Kid was in that.
the light of everyone went to him and the sword? Seemed like the light was there to defeat the Immortal Zamasu, but Trunks already seemed to be owning Zamasu before.
Will he?
Like Gohan from Cell-Games or Trunks in the current saga? Or even Goku in the Freeza Saga?
I doubt it. Goten has never really been important to the story and the only reason he existed after Goku came-back for the Boo Saga was to fuse with Trunks. He's seemingly been forgotten, l0l.
I know this might be weak evidence, if evidence at-all but the movie-poster has Goku and Gohan standing back-to-back each-other and Goku is a Super-Saiyan, so would it make sense for Gohan to be a Super-Saiyan 2? Goten and Trunks at the front are also not transformed.
I read before the TV Special, the anime staff (or the writer) thought about making a movie about Goku's father. The concept was supposed to be Goku vs Goku's father, but since that couldn't happen without time-travel they just made a story about Bardock and the Saiyans' extinction (TV Special)...
How did this fellow hold a job at Toei for so long? Writing for both DragonBall & Saint-Seiya.
He just rehashed everything from the manga for the movies. The villains were just rehashes from the manga and the filler in the anime sucked for the most part. He said Broly was better than Bills (or...
What would you consider some of the DragonBall characters' finest moments or the highest high their character had.
In my opinion:
Goku - too many, but I could name Super-Saiyan on Namek and maybe the 2nd fight against Tao-Pai-Pai (and just that entire section of the RRA arc in-general for...
Did he?
It seemed like he used a technique to bounce-back the KHH and then (sadly) one-shotted Yamcha. Tenshinhan was already fighting on-par with Roga-FuFu-Ken Yamcha before though, so did he have to have powered-up?
