Gogeta had no reason to goof in GT since he can easily kill Super Yi Xing Long off the bat and the Earth would have turn back to normal. Vegito goof off since he didn't want to kill Gohan, Piccolo, Goten and Trunks. I think the reason was that Toei wanted to keep GT on for a bit longer then have it end with Gogeta killing the final villain. I do admit that his fake kamehameha was pretty funny though.

Yeah, I liked the ending of UT better than GT for that reason. But they did need more episodes for GT for only being 64 long.

So in the end, Vegetto is stronger, under similar circumstances could've done things just as good or even better than Gogeta, doesn't require the watchers to go through the stupid "failed fusion" sequence, doesn't lose his power or ability to speak by being turned into a candy, and can destroy Boo's super-resistant-and-regenerative body by an effortless invisible attack.

But hey, Gogeta happened to be in a movie which had to end so they ended it with Gogeta defeating the villain! Thank god Janenba didn't have his kids and friends inside his body. Oh and Gogeta's serious! Because GT doesn't count. It's a good thing that he didn't have to mock Janenba and force him to use the absorption technique.

What do you prefer Gogeta to Vegetto for again? Oh right, the design. Because it's so unique and totally doesn't look like adult Gotenks.

Err isn't that the whole point though? I mean Goten and Trunks are their sons after all.

Agreed. Gogeta is just cool cause "Oh Goku and Vegeta fusion Aw" Other than that we have Vegetto and Gogeta is not needed at all. Besides Vegetto only played around on purpose. He needed to get Boo angry and to absorb him. Otherwise there's no difference in their personality. Vegetto had a reason to act all cocky and taunting, Gogeta in Movie 12 did not. GT if you go by that just makes him a Gotenks clone.
Why Dragon Ball Consistency in something such as power levels matter!

Redundant, generic in design, completely overrated in power by fanboys (Gohan-absorbed Buu would have kicked his face in; actually, any form of Super Buu could beat him, even the ones that are weaker, due to his time limit). His aura is cool, though, and I liked that weird attack he used to kill Janemba.

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
Herms wrote:The fact that the ridiculous power inflation is presented so earnestly makes me just roll my eyes and snicker. Like with Freeza, where he starts off over 10 times stronger than all his henchmen except Ginyu (because...well, just because), then we find out he can transform and get even more powerful, and then he reveals he can transform two more times, before finally coming out with the fact that he hasn't even been using anywhere near 50% of his power. 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.

I'm not arguing that his design is wrong and should've been better, I'm pointing out that there's nothing to praise Gogeta for. If the OP liked Gogeta because of design, then he should like Gotenks nearly as much. Plus Gotenks has shown SS3!

Ahh I get you now. I wish we got to see more of him though to make a proper opinion I mean he appeared for what 1 or 2 minutes.
