You know, considering how it's Tsukada handling the Rider tv show this year, rather than Takebe, I wonder if we'll get some kind of tie in between Fourze and this movie? I hope they go for it rather than just ignore such a big event.
Gokaiger's/Shinkenger's producer has also included some direct tie ins aside from the usual movie mecha cameo, but he probably won't be around next year for Sentai.
I can see the Ishinomori heroes appearing again, especially for a V3/Aoranger/Big One/Zubat team up/joke during the obligatory big battle at the end. However, I think Toei is too cheap to remake Metal Hero suits for something like this movie. Maybe Gavan and the other two space sheriffs due to the Gokaiger crossover, but I can't see the entire MH franchise popping up.
Aside from that, if Shirakura really wants to make these movies an annual feature, they need to leave something else open for 2013...
The problem is that this type of movie shows his flaws more often. The big fighting scenes with multiple past Riders and monsters that we've gotten in recent movies clearly aren't nearly as scripted as standard fighting scenes that you'd direct in a tv show, and that seems to show his limitations.
Aside from that though, he also has shown some pretty bad editing mistakes in the All Riders movies that had nothing to do with the script at all. He also seems to have some creative input in these movies - according to the Japanese wiki, he was the one who decided to throw Heisei monster suits in Let's Go Kamen Riders' Shocker, but they weren't mentioned in the script. The random Heisei suits thrown around in the last part of Let's Go Kamen Riders resulted in several inconsistencies... So, even some of the story problems come directly from him as a director.

This movie is going to kick ass.
$10 says Henshin Heroes (Kikaida, Kikaida 01, Zubat, etc.) along with the Metal Heroes will also have a part in this. They should.

I like Osamu Kaneda, I think he's just been stuck with underwhelming scripts. Dude was co-action director for Kuuga -- that alone puts him over Sakamoto and his wire-fu with Rob Zombie shaky-cam.
