Can you guys help me with "Gonna wanna"? I know it means "going to want to" but take a look at the following sentences:
"You're not gonna wanna miss the party tonight"
"You're gonna wanna keep going on that street for a while"
They're kinda strange for me!
"You're not gonna wanna miss the party tonight"
"You're gonna wanna keep going on that street for a while"
They're kinda strange for me!

I don't think it's strange. it means that you do not want to miss the party. of course, maybe you do want to miss the party, maybe you don't like parties, but it's like an advertisement.

Maybe you would understand better by seeing it written this way...
you won't (will not) want to miss the party
you will want to keep going on that street
they mean the same.

Yeah it's strange for me too. Slang words like that are words you only hear in certain regions of America or during certain eras. You might still hear it today depending on where you are but if you know the meaning behind it then I personally don't think you have to worry about it to much.

Trust me when I say that it looks weird typing it but when you say it, it'll flow right off your tongue.
