> Producer Adi Shankar said in an interview with gaming news website Polygon that his next project, after the upcoming Castlevania series for Netflix, will be an animated series reimagining the first three seasons of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers.

> Shankar describes the series as R-rated, and "darker than any other Power Rangers series." He also said he wanted to move away from the monster-of-the-week format of the original series. He is working on a script and hopes to launch the series within the next 18 months, though he does not yet have a network.

If the Power Rangers movies *does* tank, it's hard to expect this to go anywhere.

And even if it doesn't tank, it would have to out perform nearly every other big time 'super hero' movie to get the Toei and Bandai suits to even THINK about being willing to hand over their important brand to be re-imagined into something dark and brooding.

Shit, dude, just get the rights to Garo or something; they already made a dark PR-a-like over in Japan and it certainly performed well.

Honestly, this should be clear that the original was never made as a "parody", but as a serious attempt at making an edgy fanfic.

>>89806431
I didn't say how BIG of an if it was.

My expectations are as follows: it will have a good-to-great opening weekend/week to at least some degree because of nostalgia driven audiences and *maybe* the kids.

Past that, because there's a good chance the plot will mostly be some plodding Dawson's Creek (or whatever teen drama show is all the rage these days) bullshit with sci-fi seasoning, the movie will need to balance other factors in order to save itself.


The two selling points the movie *needs* to succeed are for the drama/teen parts to not suck *as* bad as we're expecting and--this is the really tricky part-- the suit and robot fights have to be God-Tier. As in "don't follow the first movie's example and give us one mook-fight, no suit fights for the rest of the film, fuck the ninja garb fights, and then top it off with a lack luster robot fight. If this movie crams the action into two points in the film, then screw it, it's going to crash and burn.

I think it would be pretty cool if a reimagining of the early seasons did something they couldn't do if they were reusing sentai footage, namely change the helmets to match the Thunder and Ninjazords (which is to say, use the Dairanger helmet designs), but from the neck down kept the diamond suits and belt morphers.

Castlevania's main draw for me wasn't ridiculous levels of blood and gore. It was the idea of a family line of vampire hunters going up against a nigh-immortal force of evil and his posse of monsters, which includes beings like Death, Medusa, Frankenstein's creature, and more. I just want a well-written Castlevania cartoon.

There's also this Facebook post from a couple of years ago. Not sure how true it is now because the show likely went through changes, but Adi Shankar apparently doesn't get why people like Castlevania.

Regarding Power Rangers: The current comic book series is a respectable and straightforward adaptation of the series. What I want to see from another Power Rangers adaptation, animated or otherwise, is for them to embrace the dumb fun of the original Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers show and go a bit crazy. The live-action movie should have been directed by a guy who loves giant robots and campy stuff in general, like Guillermo Del Toro or somebody similar who shares his sensibilities. An MMPR animated series should be half Voltron: Legendary Defender and half Gurren Lagann: An active recognition that, yes, this series is based off of heavily re-writing a show from Japan, and a willingness to go a bit crazy with the core concepts of Power Rangers and giant combining robots.

I don't know about you guys, but I'm getting excited for the movie. But I'm not becoming unrealistic though, 'the last airbender' has made me cautious of getting excited for adaptations.

Part of what makes the original Power rangers awesome is something they just can't do in a movie now, and that's the acting and storytelling of the original power rangers, it just wouldn't work now. But that's partly why the original was so goofy, its a period piece of the time it was made of, its too 90s to recreate truly, but that doesn't mean it wont be bad.

My concern is that the fighting will feel too fake. Too much CGI and not enough 'guys in costumes'. If they can avoid that pitfall, that would be good.
>>
>>89804079
Sentai can be darker without going grimdark. Liveman or Jetman are probably the darkest series and it's still not anything remotely edgy.
>>
>>89807293
The thing is I remember hearing that video was supposed to be a satire of grimderp reimaginings. How do you go from making a parody to deciding that you need to, in all earnestness, do the very thing you were satirizing?
>>
>>89802555
I hope Saban's immense boner for shutting down anything slightly PR-related that doesn't come from him kills this project.

I'm also getting tired of PR spin-offs being MMPR only. There's so many other (better) season that could be used instead. Sentai at least tries to pretend all the reused themes are new and exciting (different suits and mechs, enemy teams, etc). No one does that with MMPR clones.

Toei makes Sentai Seasons with pretty dark themes on occasion, and Saban doesn't even use them. GoBusters would have been perfect for a re-imagining like this, but was never even touched by Saban.
>>
>>89826363
I didn't say Saban, I said MMPR fans. Obviously Saban isn't good at what they do considering how no one, even kids, give a shit about these new series.
>>
From what I recall about MMPR, is that the three biggest stories would be...

'the origin story/Rita Repulsa', this movies story.

The green ranger story-line, the one that introduced the green ranger as Ritas evil ranger, who then tuned good.

And then Lord Zedd.

Hell they could have made goldar be a proto-green ranger since they're playing the whole "Rita was the original green ranger" angle. They could have made Him a construct of her green anger power.

Another reason to pray this movie flops. I don't even want to imagine how they'd fuck up Zedd's design.
>>
Okay I don't know if this is true or not, but is Toei doing the design work on the new movie?
Because if they're not, then that's retarded and whoever is making this new movie should already know that it will flop.
>>
>>89827124
Take a seat, think long and hard, and you tell me if you think Toei did the designs.

Honestly I'd probably kill the revival of Toku in the west. If power ranger's is a success we might see all the people trying to ride the waves and try to get Ultraman, or even kamen rider to be a thing in the west.
>>
>>89827260
I have problems with it becoming a thing if Saban is involved.

They would kill it so hard.

How does he even have the license with idea like that?

What
the
funevermind, it's not going to be allowed to happen. They're probablly shooting it down as we speak after seeing he wants it to be R-rated. What a madman.

>"Dark Power Rangers"

In Space did it first. So did Time Force, Lightspeed, RPM, etc.

I don't even watch Power Rangers but why does this need to be a thing? This has tumblr written all over it. I bet he only watched MMPR baka.

Nice trips though.

None of those shows aside from power rangers went anywhere afaik. Especially not Beetle Borgs.

Beetleborgs at least got a second season.
>>
>>89827626
But I liked Beetleborgs

>>89827626
Beetleborgs got better ratings than PR. It was the lack of hat scuttled the Metal Hero it was based on that scuttled a 3rd season of BB.

(Also Season 2 was good. Season 1 was nearly unwatchable.)

It probably would have been fine if it was a different cast and new seasons (with each being slightly connected to the last , doesnt need to be a new universe or anything each time). The show did a good job of showing escalation but its main problem was that it all happened to one guy which eventually dragged on too long. Even the citizens in the anime grew tired of this shit. The politician plot could have easily happened years later to a legacy hero.

>>89827007
Im not saying a gorilla suit is superior or anything but goddamn does Goldar look stupid. Even if he never existed before and this was an original creation a monster made from collecting coins and other metal to melt down, that so far from what we have see has no stable form, would always look really really stupid.
>>
>>89802766
I rewatched Dairangers and goddamn once the giant space dragon (that Lord Zedd had in our power rangers) put everyone on the side of skyscrapers and made them commit suicide, but then he rewound times cause theyf ucking did some shit I dont even know

Shit Battlestar Galactica was a good grimdark reboot wasn't it? No one thought that show should have went grimdark either. It was so campy.

I'd love that. A lot of the toys (at least modern ones I think) had the White Ranger have the old Zyuranger diamonds under his vest.

I'd love if the new movie switched animal motifs for a Ninja Zord or whatever. I always loved regular animals more than dinosaurs.

Nigger did you even get to the part where the monkey killed everyone.

The his powers were real.

Then like, it turned intio power rangers.

So I had to look this fag up and apparently he did Dredd. I loved this movie a lot. But the grimdark and grittiness really suited the source material. I thought it was a great reboot.

This is the first I heard of castlevania and fucking new power rangers. I have no idea what to think.

>>89832189
Nah, Stallone's version is better

>>89815036
Ransik was a human just mutated and he even retained a human appearance, Master Org was Human up till literally the last two episodes, Lothor was 100% human he just had a horrible fashion sense,
>>
>>89814911
Those are built from the ground up to be dark and gritty it his power rangers idea was a built from the ground up or making use of a darker series like RPM it could work but most power ranger series are built to be mostly light fun romps and darkening somethings just takes away its charm
>>
>>89802555
>Next Project is Dark 'Power Rangers' Reimagining

Okay. Darker power rangers could work, of course darker being relative here. I thought the boom comic got pretty dark at points while still keeping it power rangers. That comic even got me to care about Tommy and his problems and I fucking hate Tommy.

Oh, never mind them. Only reason I'd even consider looking into this is if they did an adaptation of Agony in Pink but then only for the novelty.

I suppose that makes some sense. Just strange to call that "propaganda" since vampires are fictional and all.
