17 and 18. 14 is weaker than a SSJ. 13 might cause SOME trouble. But 17 and 18 together destroys him easily.

17 and 18 stomp. 13 and 14 were on SS Vegeta's level or below- pretty far below in 14's case.

He's probably referring to the Bardock special. Zarbon was the one who first recommended destroying Planet Vegeta because the saiyans were rapidly growing in strength.
It was actually Beerus disguised as Zarbon #StayWoke

Oh, and he can survive in the vacuum of space. All this stuff is just presented as the way Freeza is, without even an attempt at rationalizing it, yet the tone dictates we're supposed to take all this silly grasping at straws as thrilling danger. So I guess I don't really take the power inflation in the Boo arc seriously, but I don't take the power inflation in earlier arcs seriously either, so there's no net loss of seriousness. I think a silly story presented as serious is harder to accept than a silly story presented as silly.

Wasn't 14 the trucker attire with the hat? Didn't he give Goku trouble? Unless you're saying Vegeta was stronger in the film

Vegeta was stronger than Goku in the android arc. 14 is the racist caricature- the one with grey skin and a ponytail. That one was beaten without much trouble by Trunks, so either of the androids would wreck it in one hit.

I think there are two in-universe reasons as to why Vegito wasn't in the movie:
1. Goku wanted to see how strong ssgod was.
2. They didn't want to be permanently fused again.
Kaio was sure that absolutely nothing would work against Beerus (before learning about SSGod), and their current greatest weapon was SS3 Vegetto. So, Beerus stomps.

But the crucial difference between them lies not only in how they view the world, but in how the world views them.

Superman is, and always has been, a symbol for truth, justice, and upstanding moral fortitude–a role model and leader as much as a fighter. The more down-to-earth Goku has no illusions about being responsible for maintaining social order, or for setting some kind of moral example for the entire world. Goku is simply a martial artist who’s devoted his life toward perfecting his fighting skills and other abilities. Though never shy about risking his life to save either one person or the entire world, he just doesn’t believe that the balance of the world rests in any way on his shoulders, and he has no need to shape any part of it in his image. Goku is an idealist, and believes that there is some good in everyone, but he is unconcerned with the big picture of the world…unless it has to do with some kind of fight. Politics, society, law and order don’t have much bearing on his life, but he’s a man who knows right from wrong.

This is what I say as well.

That's been done to death. A million of times. Each time it's the same. Half of us(like me) say SSJ3 Vegetto and the other half wil say Beerus. Both with great evidence.
Can you give me the main points?

He's the same person that thought gohan with the z sword would beat buu.

Nahh SSJGod would own any form of Vegito simply becuase SSJ God has the statements 1 Million years SSJ3 power up, and also the other Statement by Bills that SSJ Gods ki is immeasurable. Vegito might surprise like vegeta but he would certainly lose in any form. Unless you can find the statement of gotenks Buu or Super buu stating that he is on a entirely different dimension than the previous Buu than Vegito might have chance. however i am propably confusing that statement with Piccolo who has made a similar statement regarding the kai's and himself included being on different dimension i guess?.

Not, that was Kaioshin The Big Dumpass, not Kaio. Correct me if I'm wrong, but Kaio was never an unreliable source.

Well, he thought that Freeza was dead, twice, I think. But so did everyone else, so....does that count? Also, he thought that Freeza had immediately destroyed Namek with his attack.

Tie. Recoome is weaker in terms of ki and Vegeta could actually faze him, but he also just doesn't stay down and may or may not just outlast Nail.

These are mistakes that everyone can make. But Kaioshin thought that Pui Pui & Yakon could hurt the Saiyans purely based on the fact that they are Babidi's men, and he thought that Gohan could beat Boo from his gains through the Z-Sword purely based on the fact that the sword is legendary... So, yeah.

Hard one. But Bojack due to Broly's weakness of Water. But in power I think Broly have the edge.

Always wondered if they were different in terms of power.
