Let me get this straight, they are all sub-only except Res F and Broly, and BOG is mysteriously missing?
Very odd, Toei. Granted they won't let Kai stream either and Super is still sub-only on CR.

I didn't realize there were so many. I'm now wondering if I saw all of them.

I want to be excited but the quality of their DBZ uploads are pretty poor. Hope the older movies look better.

I would have loved to see them stream the 4 Dragon Ball films, 2 Dragon Ball Z TV specials, Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods (in my opinion I think it's the best DBZ film ever made), the Dragon Ball Z OVAs (Yo! Son Goku and His Friends Return!!, Plan to Eradicate the Super Saiyans, & Episode of Bardock), the Future Trunks Special Edition of Dragon Ball Z: Resurrection 'F', and the only Toriko & One Piece episode that has not been included to this day (Dream 9 Toriko & One Piece & Dragon Ball Z Super Collaboration Special. Only the second part was dubbed and premiered on Toonami since it was the 590th episode of One Piece, but it would be pretty nice for them to give Toriko a chance to finish the English dub in order for the first part to be dubbed). If Crunchyroll can do the impossible, then I would be happy as a lark to see what they can hugely improve for the greater good no less. Especially if they could properly improve their home releases for Dragon Ball Z, rather than just repackage it or even give us an improper home release.

Another thing that would be nice is for them to use the 2018 master (uncensored) from Toei Animation for the Dragon Ball & Dragon Ball Z films and TV specials, including the AB Groupe Blu-Ray remaster of Dragon Ball for every episode, including the rest of DBZ & DBGT if AB Groupe is planning to remaster all the episodes.

Now why would they have all those films except for Kami to Kami?

I wonder if Battle of Gods being missing has to do with Toei holding back the extended TV version?

As for Kai, both parts will getting uploaded to Hulu in a few days.

Judging by what's up now, they're using Funimation's Double Feature masters but includes Japanese credits so these are the same video as what Toei gave to other countries like Spain.

Probably good for Bio-Broly & Fusion Reborn when they go up next week since those should be uncensored unlike the Japanese Blu-rays.

Also with the exception of the Japanese version of Fusion Reborn, all the DBZ movies are available to buy on iTunes in either format.
