I think there's a 60% chance it'll show up while the other 40% going to Gogeta.
Why people are so obsessed with Gogeta? I mean there's no reason for him to show up other than fanservice, Potara is no longer eternal, is a more effective fusion and Vegeta hates doing the dancing moves.

Fanservice is more or less what the series is built on at this point, hence why Broly is the villain of this movie.

Sure, but still would make more sense to Vegetto appear instead of Gogeta.

You said it mate, Gogeta is the single character I don't wanna see defeat Broly, mostly for the reasons you pointed out..
I am down for Freeza, Berrus or even The Greatest Beasthan Saiyaman Gohan dealing the final blow outta nowhere, but this, no, not this..

Pretty sure gogeta gets mentioned because of the fact that fusion reborn is being rescreenes along with the first broly movie and Bardock special
That and the fact they're hiding 2 new main figures under "new" characters which Gogeta could be among, especially with Vegeta and Freeza not being a part of the line so whoever these 2 are have to be more important.

As a business it's in their best interest to make fans happy.

Its first 3 days of ticket sales have doubled what RF did so fans clearly want fan service.
AnimeNation101 wrote:And finally, to hell with that excuse. “Oh, Gogeta can’t happen because Vegeta doesn’t know it”. Thats BS. Vegeta has seen Goten and Trunks fuse thousands of times. They could Ashly just say that he knows the movements since he’s seen them so much.
Vegeta already said he knew the moves back in the Buu arc when Goku wanted to do them inside Buu.
July 9th 2018 will be remembered as the day Broly became canon.

WHY IN GODS NAME WILL THEY NOT INCLUDE UI GOKU?

ITS ONE OF THE BEST FORMS

ITS HIS NEWEST FORM

ITS DESIGNED BY TORIYAMA/ canon

GOKU DIDN'T LOST HIS FORM HE JUST CAN NOT ACCES AT WILL!

Now the chances gogeta appears in the movie:
The 4d movie??? So we can expect ssj4 broly then. Come on people keep things realistically.

The reaosn they may not include it is to show that him not being able to use it at will is serious. If he can use it whenever he's in danger then what's the point of not letting him use it whenever he wants if he can use it whenever he needs it ?

They're trying to build more room for Goku to improve. Just being able to use UI at will is a new end goal for him, and that's not to speak of what they can do with him or anyone else once that happens. UI itself is actually rectifying the problem of "s-cells" and saiyan-exclusive transformations in that anyone can technically achieve it.

We can very clearly see Goku going shirtless in the trailer for this movie. This proves that UI is far more likely than anything else! Also, Vegeta doesn’t seem to be anywhere in sight near the end of this movie!

Goku couldn't transform in ssj at will remember?

Him using when ever he wants takes away the drama and tension, you know the things people like to see in a movie etc.

Goku also said to not use kaioken, we al know he used it.

That doesn't mean UI should be the next ssj that he can use to play baseball with.

With the UI dodging effects used when they strike with the bat or throw the balls, that would be epic. 8)

Not counting UI out simply due to the nature of the fight in the trailers and the info we got regarding how powerful Broly is.

Things looked hopelessly dire in the trailer. Broly's still powering up and Goku's actually visibly trembling with fear in Blue with seemingly no one around to help him because they've all presumably had the shit kicked out of them. Even then, you can tell the fight goes on for a bit longer than that because Goku's shirt is missing in the next scene as it shows Broly powering up EVEN FURTHER. Is such a scenario not satisfying for seeing Goku tap into UI again? Do things need to get even worse?

Broly's confirmed to be the most powerful fighter they've faced so far in the series, eclipsing Jiren and the Gods of Destruction in terms of might. Goku pretty much needs UI to even stand a chance.

Saying Goku cant or shouldn't whip the form out in every dire situation is rather shortsighted, especially when you consider the series' track record. Super Saiyan was the exact same way, unusable at will aside from cases where Goku got extremely angry, but that didn't stop the Cooler movie from having Goku transform into it to fight him as a means to save the day.

I hope Cheelai doesn't get killed
off unceremoniously like Frieza's other goons and Zangya did. She's cute. :P

Yeah, that Broly we see at the end of the trailer is still in his Super Saiyan form. He's beating Goku's ass and he hasn't even gone Super Saiyan Full Power yet. :shock:

A theory popped into my mind just now. AnimeNation101 theorised that Paragus is a scientist that experimented on Broly by injecting S-Cells into him to create the most powerful Saiyan warrior. In the trailer we see several Saiyan babies covered in some kind of tech while floating in their incubators. They might be Saiyans that are getting their S-Cells extracted for Paragus's experiment. These would be low power level babies that didn't reach the Saiyans' standards, so they were given to Paragus for his experiment.

Now, Toriyama said that one of the themes for this film is the paths of destiny that lead to an encounter between Broly, Vegeta and Goku. When it comes to Vegeta, I think they'll reuse the whole wanting Vegeta dead because he's the son of King Vegeta who tried to kill and remove Paragus and Broly. But what was Goku's path of destiny towards Broly?

My theory is that Goku was originally supposed to be one of the Saiyan babies that would have their S-Cells extracted and given to Broly. Bardock finds out about this and decides to send Goku away before Paragus can do anything about it. Thus, there's this past conflict with Bardock, King Vegeta and Paragus which leads to the present where this conflict continues with Broly, Vegeta and Goku. This would mean retconning DB Minus, where Bardock sent Goku away because he had a bad feeling about what might happen to Planet Vegeta.

Its like you’re blinded by all the evidence suggesting Gogeta over UI. UI can happen but Gogeta is getting majorly hinted. I just present all the hint some posts ago

OMG. Shirtless Goku equals UI confirmed!!! No. Thats the most stupid evidence I’ve heard for the case for UI in the movie to this day. And thats the other thing. How do you know that scene is even at the end of the movie? There’s more suggesting that it isn’t the end because Broly is just transforming into his final form during that scene.

You’re really just pulling out the dumbest pieces of evidence (I’d you can even call it that) because you want UI in the movie. The reality is, there is more against UI and much more for Gogeta in the evidence i gave you.
I called it that Gogeta, Bardock, and something Broly related would be in the movie before it was even announced that it was a Broly movie. 8)

No it wouldn’t. Judging from what we’ve seen, Shin isn’t there throughout the whole fight, let alone all the scenes. If he was so important, we would have gotten Shintani’s designs for him along with Beerus and Whis. So they probably won’t have the potara with them. Gogeta is the only way.

Apparently two more scenes from the new movie. Hopefully that exploding scene is related to the destruction of planet Vegeta after the Bardock vs Freeza fight.
