If the next film continues with the tease of
would you enjoy him as the lead? I would if they somehow tie Raditz and Napa in as supports for them in a unique twist. Maybe a time travel or U6 thing.

No, he's one of the worst characters in the franchise. He was already one of the worst parts about Super Hero.

In fact some of later original DBZ movies were amongst the worst purely because Goten and Trunks were featured so much.

Both Trunks and Goten need more development beyond being mischievous kids, first.

I would second a Future Trunks Time Patrol movie though. Or something so that we know what happens to him.

I like Gotenks and there could be an interesting Goten/Trunks movie but I don't have the faith that the Toei writers could pull it off.

Do you realize what franchise you’re a fan of? It literally started as “a joke.”

I don't see any trend, considering you had a Broly movie before Superhero.
By your trend idea, you should have a Buu based movie. And Gotenks role was miserable, there. Like the miserable character he was, used as a gag the whole time and way more in Super.

That said...
Time travel, meet Raditz and Nappa at Gotenks power level. How much do you hate those characters???
I learned english listening to songs. So I don't know anything about. The day you had to learn play piano by just listening .mp3, you'll understand.

Yes, and that means we are going to have a movie about Majin Buu, aren't we? The only reason I would want a Majin Buu movie is to tell his whole "story", beginning from time immemorial to show him (again) killing the Kaioshins and what is Bibidi actual role in all of this, since he apparently didn't create him. Culminating the movie with Uub, obviously. Would love to see new stuff with Majin Buu, but I don't know what else can be done with him, other that he will spawn an entire race...

A movie about Goten and Trunks could only be slice of life, which I like and I would love to see them, especially if the movie depicts them as proper teenagers, but we just got another slice of life movie. Enough. Now is the time for a big event. Let Goten and Trunks lead their own thing after that.
