Biboka - You have to be kidding me. "I'm going to" is not overly formal.
While "I'm gonna" is fine due to wide use, "I'm going to" is still seen as more acceptable and more correct. I say it more often than I say "I'm gonna," and so do my friends and family, professionals, educators, and many more people. You're wrong to say it's overly formal.
As far as "I gonna," I've never heard any educated, respectable people talking like that.

I bet Timothy says: It is I in a proud way rather than a simply and sloppy: It's me.
I hope his friends and family, professionals, educators, and many more people follow his nice try.

Timothy is the President La quara Simoa Islands. That's why he speaks that way: "it is I".

Biboka, I'm sorry that people who use proper English are such a threat to you. Perhaps you would feel more comfortable on a forum for auto mechanics or truck drivers.
You don't have to be anything special to not say "I gonna."
I live a lower-middle class lifestyle, yet I don't know a single person who says "I gonna."
