What? Will we get a third trailer? :wtf:
Consider this :D


First trailer was action and story, second trailer mainly story, final trailer will probably indeed be focussing on action / animation and Gogeta appearing.
It will be right in the face 'this is what we got, come and watch it'. It's meant to give a convincing impression of the animation efforts that's been put into this movie.

Obviously it can happen. What won't happen is the same setup as in the TV special, precisely because it's a different story and premiss.

But there's nothing objectively suggesting or preventing a last stand from Bardock, specially when he's the one shown being suspicious of Freeza.

Fundamentally, there's nothing stopping the movie from showing Bardock standing up to Freeza. DB Minus didn't, but that's not what DB Minus was focusing on. It didn't even show Vegeta getting destroyed, as it cut to Earth like a month before Vegeta was destroyed. This new Broli movie IS showing Freeza destroying Vegeta, and is showing Bardock's suspicions of Freeza's motives, so it very well could happen.

Paragus also appears in the present making him inherently more important than KV and Bardock. Frieza appears in the present and is a much more developed character. He is also a powerful fighter, which makes him a very important character. Bardock has nothing going for him other than a completely unrelated TV special.
Still doesn’t change the fact that Bardock’s importance in the movie is a piss poor argument against why people care about how they’re changing him.
The fact that Bardock isn't that important in DBS: Broly is a perfectly good reason for why people shouldn't be so upset at the movie for not making him "cool".
No. It doesn’t matter what role a character has in a story. If Toriyama changes events previously established himself that are important to the character you like, you have the right to complain about what you see as an ass change or retcon. The character’s importance in the story at the time has nothing to do with it
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)

Most of the worries here are about Bardock. So why would the 3rd trailer which you assume will be about Gogeta erase our worries about Bardock? They’re completely unrelated. Sure, the 3rd trailer might be hype but that wont get rid of the problems people have about what they might have done to Bardock and his iconic moment.

I’m curious if anybody else has wondered at what point in the fight will we see Vegeta have that condescending look in his face at the end of trailer 2?

Obviously it’ll probably be at the beginning during the first reveal, but at some point Goku steps in as a super saiyan as well. Maybe they’ll be taking turns fighting on and off? I can’t really see them ganging up on Broly right from the start. If ssj Vegeta gets overwhelmed by Broly, he has multiple forms afterwards to compensate for it. Any idea why they’d both potentially use it? Assuming around th same time?

Maybe Goku just gets so excited that he keeps butting in, ending up in both of them fighting Broly at once like how they did against Jiren.

No, only assumptions. There nothing from them explicit directed to a canon on any source nor a timeline taking into account the current events (Super). Also Android 21? I never read from anyone telling she's part of the main story, that's like saying the same about Towa and Miira.

It was barely a page in the manga, that had no bearing on the entire arc and was more of Toriyama giving a nod to Toei. And it doesn't contradict anything since it came from Freeza's mouth an unreliable narrator who also explained why Vegeta couldn't get SS and then he does next arc out of nowhere.
One thing doesn't deny the other. We didn't had any flashbacks of Vegeta achieving the SSJ transformation unlike the anime, but in the manga Freeza did implied a Saiyan that looked like Goku rebelled against him before destroying Planet Vegeta. Saying Freeza is unrealiable is the same thing as saying Goku also is when stated that could defeat Fat Boo as a SSJ3.

You are speaking as though Bardock is the most important part of this movie, which he isn't as he is just meant to represent Goku's father like Paragus and King Vegeta do to the other 2.

You have a right to complain about anything, but that doesn't make the complaint relevant or productive.

Why Is Frieza completely pink too ? That design Isn't sitting well with me, and just looks...off?
I mean, changing the story Is one thing but can't Toriyama just not keep the same designs for his characters? It only adds to further frustration lol

Whats the point of Vegeta using SSG in this movie? He didn't use it at all in the anime and even in the 1st trailer we already saw (Ikari) Broly going toe to toe with SSB Goku. Unless thats the form that Gogeta ends up using which would be cool I guess

How can an "infant" understand orders to destroy?

I'm certain this is the case. If Gogeta does end up being on XV2, he'll be a separated slot, which means another form for him. Like Vegetto and Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Vegetto in there.

Well, hopefully it is Super Saiyan God Gogeta. I'll only like to see Super Saiyan God Super Saiyan Gogeta afterwards, because that would happen eventually. I don't know if we will ever see Super Saiyan God Vegetto though, for instance.

I think either approach looks fine and believing they should either stick with the anime colors or move toward the manga colors is an acceptable idea.

But this is the same as the Trunks hair situation. They're only changing this now with no real reason to do so, and it's not consistent with the rest of the series. I like pink Frieza okay, but it's surely going to confuse people. It's not as bad as kid Trunks still mysteriously having purple hair, but it's annoying and they should just decide whether they're going whole-hog with the manga colors or making up their own pallets and stop this halfway stuff. I mean it's not like Bulma has purple hair in this movie.
