So the movie villain's power is money? Bil said he defeated him with that.
I wonder if that's literal or if he's just so rich and influential that he can pay people to defeat you or something. The later would make more sense regarding the comment that he's as powerful as the celestials (who are not physically strong at all).
I also feel like all of the movies can easily happen. It's one of the things I love about them compared to the Dragon Ball Z movies. Let's speculate:
Captain Kuro -> Movie 1 -> Baratie/Arlong -> Movie 2 -> Logue Town -> Baroque Works/Drum -> Movie 3 -> Arabasta -> Movie 4 -> Jaya/Skypiea -> Movie 5 -> Movie 6 -> Movie 7-> Davy Back -> Water 7/Enies Lobby -> Movie 10 -> Sabaody -> literally everything else until Fishman Island -> Movie 11
Yeah I have a similar timeline I think (have a list somewhere...), same for some of the TV specials (since the timeskip basically everything happened between arriving in the new world and Punk Hardard haha )
Interestingly, the new movie would need to be slotted between future arcs it seems.
The villain is still present in the anime canon right now (meaning Luffy didn't defeat him yet) but is set in a time when the Strawhats are back together again (spoiler ).
Decent special. A little disappointed with no 4th gear Luffy though. I'm a little confused about Rob Lucci and CP9 being back. I thought CP9 was the weakest while CP0 was the strongest. CP9 had a colossal failure at Enies Lobby and I'm a bit surprised they even still exist.

CP9 isn't the weakest...its goes from 1-9 1 being weakest to 9 being strongest of the known Cipher Pol Groups, then there's the most recent and hidden CP0 which are stronger from what is said but we have yet to see by how much.
They made the point of CP9 being the strongest known one by the whole train part of Enies Lobby Arc, where Sanji just steamrolls basically all of Cipher Pol on their except CP9 themselves.
The special was fun. I only didn't like how the non-beast strawhats were all caught so easily. At least Robin should not be part of that but they always make her look weak, so...

CP9 is secret too though right? I always assumed people knew about CP0 but they're the intelligence group while CP9 was the secret assassination group.

What was the point of recapping how the Straw Hats joined? Did Toei think this was another jumping point for new viewers? One Piece doesn't work like that!
So weird to see Robin with lighter skin pre-timeskip. I know canonically, she never had tan skin and that was Toei's mistake *cough*Bulma'sBlueHair*cough* but still, it's odd to see.

First time seeing it. Very cool use of cel-shaded CGI mixed with some 2D effects.
It reminds me of the Straw Hat Chase movie, except this clipshow is trying to emulate both the anime and manga aesthetics.
A movie or video game with this style would be a sight to behold.
But they just couldn't help themselves with that boob jiggle, couldn't they? *sigh*

Yeah there's a lot of great 2d special effects like fire,smear,smoke/gas. the spiderman action camera angles and fantastic action choreography at later part of straw hat chase movie was excellent, I would love another movie/special using the tech mixed with 2d of this One piece 4D thing.
