You're either high, or have never seen an anime/manga that has movies set after their canon (manga) ending not be canon. Hell some (Naruto had a lengthy bit after Part I, DBZ had an entire anime sequel and a multitude of DBGT, DBZ movies - only two of which are canon) have entire anime series based after their canon ending. As I mentioned, only two of DBZ's movies are canon and Toriyama himself declared them as such. Your logic is flawed and, sorry to stay, stupid. Short of Kishi's verbal statement (as Toriyama did), the movie is as canon as any other movie to date.

The end.
