3	* BadExportForYou: The Malaysian DVD has such a shitty video quality, not to mention shoddy translation in the back of the case that one could mistake it for a bootleg copy, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2I9jTnPi8hU as seen here]]. Doubles as SelfDeprecation, considering how Sunrise and the fans felt about the series...
4	* BuryYourArt: In light of the movie's failure, Sunrise has done as much as possible to suppress its existence, allowing the movie to fall out of print in overseas markets following Bandai Entertainment's 2012 closure, declining to license it to the Gundam franchise's next licensor Nozomi Entertainment, declining to reference it in any subsequent Gundam media until 2013's ''Anime/GundamBuildFighters'' (in a brief TakeThat where the film's eponymous mech is swiftly destroyed), and billing the Creator/LegendaryPictures film as the "first-ever live-action feature film" in the franchise upon its 2018 announcement.
5	* CreatorBacklash: Sunrise has never said it's non-canon[[note]]officially, Sunrise's policy is that anything that is animated is canon - which means, yes, both a TV series AND the compilation movies for that series are canon - and no UC titles released after the film have taken place the year this movie was set in the UC timeline (or after, unless you count ''Anime/GundamReconguistaInG'')[[/note]], but have also admitted that they do not like to talk about it and generally pretend the movie doesn't exist (which is pretty much [[FanonDiscontinuity what the fans do]]).
6	* CreatorKiller: This is pretty much the only thing that a certain Stephanie Pena-Sy wrote.
7	* DisownedAdaptation: Probably the reason ''why'' Sunrise denied the existence of the movie.
8	* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Outside of the now out of print 2002 DVD release by Creator/BandaiEntertainment, the film has not been reissued in any form in the North American market. Considering the film’s status as an OldShame among {{Creator/Sunrise}}, the chances of the license being picked up by a new distributor are very slim, with current Gundam distributors Nozomi Entertainment [[https://twitter.com/NozomiEnt/status/1083455897328893954?s=20 explicitly stating that Sunrise has no plans to rerelease it]].
9	* NoExportForYou: All of the tie-ins.
10	** The novels have been published and sold in Italian-speaking countries/territories.
11	* PropRecycling: The body armor used by CONSENT troops are reused from ''Film/StarshipTroopers''. But then again, CONSENT is eerily similar to both Zeon and the UCF.

13	!!Game:

15	* NoExportForYou: The game was not released outside of Asia. However, the game did have English voices with Japanese subtitles.
16	* SequelFirst: In Japan, the [=PS2=] videogame was released first before the movie.
