delet this

>>15105674

So, hypothetical here. Saban is willing to unclench his fists for a change and produce a western original series with aid of Toei, Bandai, and PLEX for domestic and later foreign distribution. What theme do you go for?

>>15105674

The fact that the movie is so close to release and we haven't even gotten a full trailer yet tells you all you need to know. Keep your expectations LOW.

>>15107033
But that's not Saban

>>15107033
Man, don't do that to me. I'd buy the rights and get Tsuburaya to help out making a reboot/semi-sequel using the Gridman Sigma suit.

They had to be kept low the second they revealed the suits or the fact they were going "mature" with this(cant recall the first indicator now). Not sure what a difference muh trailer would make.

>>15107974
Stop what?

Saw the first few episodes of Dino Charge when they aired and caught the last episode today. That shit was anti-climatic. Barely any final battle. It's like it was rushed as hell. I was glad to see the Torin suit got used though. But if they were going to use it, why make Keeper at all?

>>15107866

>liking power rangers means adoring Saban
the fuck are you on about. I mean, my only real issue with Saban is ideoligical, but there's lots of people here who like PR and hate Saban. Not /ssg/ trolls though.

>>15108858
>But if they were going to use it, why make Keeper at all?
My guess is that they wanted to do the zenowing/doomwing plotline without having to do it at the beggining of the show. If they just used Torin's suit, they should've adressed him having an evil side since the beggining and carry that on for a season and a half.

>>15109047
If you want something that's 100% not like sentai don't bother with a franchise that exists because it can take material from sentai, not to mention the premise of the show is wildly different so the characters themselves can't be 100% the ninningers. Tyler, Chase and Riley have traits from their sentai counterparts but they also have differences.

More episode summaries:

Episode 3 Live and Learn - "Brody is accused of cheating on his first day of school after using his Data Comm to find answers. Now, he must use his own abilities and leadership skills to lead the Rangers against another threat from Galvanax"

Episode 4 Presto Change-O: "Preston is amazed when he discovers he's developed real magical abilities. Meanwhile, Galvanax hatches a plan with a new monster to steal the Ninja Power Stars."

Episode 5 Drive to Survive: "When the Power Rangers are caught in the spiderweb prison of Galvanax's latest monster Tangleweb, Calvin must conquer his fear to unlock a new power and save them."

Episode 6 My Friend, Redbot: "Hayley is targeted by Galvanax's latest monster. Isolated from the other Rangers, she and Redbot must work together to save themselves."

But you're feeding the beast while spiting it. Supporting PR means you're making Saban richer.

There's nothing wrong with liking PR back in the 90's and 00's, but nobody should be propping up Saban Brands. Especially when you know how Saban's a cheap and lazy fucker. I think the last straw was when they sent that Cease & Desist to the developers of Chroma Squad.

Pretty sure that was made pre-Dino Charge.

>>15112065
They were just attending a comedy show he was performing at.

Moreover, Preston's counterpart is already a magician, so that summary is pretty far from a confirmation.

Chip's counterpart DOES show up much later in Ninninger though.

>>15111852
>But you're feeding the beast while spiting it. Supporting PR means you're making Saban richer.
The closest thing I do to support PR is buying sentai figuarts.

Regardless, that's not what we were discussing and I don't see how that proves you aren't an /ssg/ troll.


>>15112069
The pic, yeah, but was made by taiko554, not the RIPfag. Not to mention every time the existence of the DC and NS battlizers gets pointed out he, at best, handwaves it with "arguments" that never really address the fact that the shogun mode is not called battlizer.

>>15112243
>Preston's counterpart is already a magician
So? We're not talking about Yakumo here.

>>15112296
Are you being difficult on purpose? I'm saying his counterpart is a magician, so it's not surprising to see Preston become one, and it's certainly not a confirmation that Chip is cameoing.

>>15112378
Ah, sorry, I thought you were attacking the legitimity of the summary itself, not whether it confirmed if Chip was gonna be in it.

Question for both Sentai and Ranger fans: How do you like your Rangers? Animal themed, or non-animal themed?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMGI7RmE7-M
WTF?

>>15115406
I really liked the Wild Force suits.

But something like Samurai, where the designs are simple yet striking, is also pretty great.

It really depends, Ninja Storm and RPM have some light animal stylings on them, and they're give or take (I like RPM Red but not Blue). And then something like Dino Charge, I think the suits are stronger than their helmets generally.

Iunno, now that I think about it, this isn't really an answer, but I guess I don't really mind as long as it looks cool.

>>15115592

Oh yeah, I forgot about that thing.

>>15115592
Don't diss. I loved that game.

>>15115406
Whatever looks good. I'd rather non-animal if i had to pick since it's obviously more varied, but if it has to be animals, I'd like something like jetman instead of the usual dinosaurs or red lion/bird, blue shark etc.

That said, I don't think motifs are as necesary as both Bandai and sadly the fanbase seem to think (see Maskman) and I'm tired of them defining the plot and themes of the show. Soda sentai are some of the best shows and don't give a shit about motifs.

>>15114253
>implying I watched that garbage where the guy has a literal katana

I don't even know what that's from.

What the English fanbase calls a "roll call" is nanori (名乗り) a part of traditional Japanese theater where a character proudly states his name and intentions to the audience.
It's not used as much in PR because it's a culturally Japanese thing.

Depends on what you're actually looking for which is something even people who are already into PR(and tokusatsu in general) aren't sure about. But if you like fun shows for kids with great action and good enough storylines there are good times ahead(for the most part, there are some bad seasons as expected of a franchise that went on this long).

>>15118806
It's not bad. It's a classic beat em up in the vein of the old TMNT/X-Men/Simpsons arcade games. I'm an old fag who loves those sorts of games so it's right up my alley.

You get to play as the unmorphed Rangers which is nice, and there's a levelling up system that unlocks more moves including team attacks, so it looks like it will have more variety in the combat department than these button mashers generallly do. The only problem is no online multiplayer, though PS4's remote play might be able to substitute for that.

It has been rated PG13, if you can't keep something as important as the target audience from the show then it's not a good adaptation.

>>15118806

Years later and I still don't know how King Sphinx came to be considered so iconic to MMPR.

>>15119383
It appered frequently in merchandise, I'd say it was pushed.
Sentai has a similar case with Baseball Mask.

>>15119383
I think it had everything to do with being one of the first monsters and in a decent episode as far as establishing stuff as far as
"Look at how badass the red ranger is supposed to be by himself"
That's just how I see it.

Pretty dumb reasoning there, anon. Does the "adapt" part of "adaptation" mean nothing to you? If you're gonna be stringent with the requirements of how an adaptation is allowed to deviate from the source material, then you might as well NOT adapt it and just keep watching the main show.

You can dislike what they've shown from the movie, but at least do so reasonably.

Adaptation!=do whatever you want. That's the excuse uncreative people and shills give.

>If you're gonna be stringent with the requirements of how an adaptation is allowed to deviate from the source material
Target audience, and the tone of the show defined thanks to it are important factors. Not something you can just ignore like, say, Angela not being there(which would be an improvement). We knew the tone was already off from....everything we've seen, but the movie rating is something more concrete you can't really argue against. Unless you want to repeat a retarded definition of what an adaptation is.

>then you might as well NOT adapt it and just keep watching the main show.
If you're gonna change everything you might as well not adapt it and do something else.

>You can dislike what they've shown from the movie, but at least do so reasonably.
Not sure how basing an idea over concrete proof is unreasonable. Not to mention the movie rating is not really related to my personal tastes.

MMAR is short and serves a bridge between seasons, I don't see a reason to skip it if you're watching everything. Not to mention a plot point from there is picked on later in Zeo.
The movie was, for example, not worth watching since it wasn't canon (the second is though).

Oh, you'll see. Also, the first movie is worth it if only for Ivan.

>>15119764
>Adaptation!=do whatever you want. That's the excuse uncreative people and shills give.
This is...painful to read to say the least. You're saying creative people are the ones who purposefully box themselves into constraints and uncreative ones are the ones who are allowed the freedom of an open canvas?

Again, everyone's perfectly fine to dislike this movie based on how grounded and self serious it seems to be, but every time I see this sort of sentiment, I'm simply reminded of ardent Transformers fans who base their merit on a new work with how much it panders to G1.

What I'm saying is, it's unreasonable to demand an adaptation to be very close the original, but I think we're just gonna have to agree to disagree.

I'll say this though. The Nolan Batman films and 60's Adam West Batman are both valid entities that should be allowed to co-exist. PR's never had a contemporary, serious incarnation before, could be dreadful, but it might be its own cool thing.

>>15120065
>I'll say this though. The Nolan Batman films and 60's Adam West Batman are both valid entities that should be allowed to co-exist.
Incidentally, a similar point was brought up in The Brave and the Bold cartoon (by Bat-Mite, of all people).

Hey, /prg/, I was wondering if you could answer me something. Why does the Orion Galaxy Megazord and the Wild Force Megazord have the same head? Was this just a reference, or is there an in-lore reason for it in either Wild Force or their source sentai series?

>>15120328
Oh wow, I had never really noticed that.

Well there's no in-lore reason. But I would not doubt a behind the scenes production reference, they tend to do that sort of thing on occasion (I think many of the Boukenger/Operation Overdrive villain designs are references to old mechs and such), though often they never come out and directly say it.

>>15107033
Kilokahn was such a fucking great villain.

>If you destroy us, us humans, there will be nothing left!

I will say this: Why the fuck did the show not use like 5 episodes of footage, but kept reusing the same fights?

>>15119383
It was the first really cool looking monster on the show. Personally I always thought Knasty Knight was cooler.

>>15120538
it may just also be a recurring design choice, like red tyrannozords, blue tricerazords, and dragonzord-esk bonus dinozords with drill tails.

>King Sphinx was also in the original pilot
This is pretty much the main reason. The bulk of MMPR's early merchandising was entirely based on the pilot. You ever had one of the coloring book as a kid and noticed the team looked off? Different clothes, slight modified hairstyles? That's why.

It's the same reason the original Power Morpher toy's stickers are upside-down. The button orientation was reversed so it could be pressed with the right fist facing palm-down, as it was in the pilot, instead of palm-up like in the series proper.

>>15119359

>>15120065
>This is...painful to read to say the least. You're saying creative people are the ones who purposefully box themselves into constraints and uncreative ones are the ones who are allowed the freedom of an open canvas?
If you were able to fucking read you'd know i'm saying the literal opposite. Uncreative people are in any case the ones that have to take a preexisting product and wrongly use the word 'adaptation' to justify not being creative. The fact that you inferred the opposite kinda makes me not want to reply since its not worth it.

>Again, everyone's perfectly fine to dislike this movie based on how grounded and self serious it seems to be, but every time I see this sort of sentiment, I'm simply reminded of ardent Transformers fans who base their merit on a new work with how much it panders to G1.
It has nothing to do with that. I dont praise, say, time force, one how similar to mmpr is, and you know why? Because time force was never supposed to be mmpr in any way. This movie, however is promoted as a modern mmpr, so i expect a modern mmpr.

>What I'm saying is, it's unreasonable to demand an adaptation to be very close the original
Again, you're proving you're not thinking this this much. I'm not saying that, and i already pointed that out in my previous post so you dont assume i meant that. That's the opposite end of the spectrum. I'm not saying the movie should be the literal show(impossible since its not the show), but the opposite is also not truen by your logic i could call the new star wars movie a modern mmpr and you wont be able to argue that.

>I'll say this though. The Nolan Batman films and 60's Adam West Batman are both valid entities that should be allowed to co-exist.
Irrelevant, batman is a different franchise.

>>15120065

> PR's never had a contemporary, serious incarnation before
It doesnt really need that, its a kids show and fine as it is. Even then, PR can have a contemporary serious incarnation, the show is renewed each year/two years, which is how it tries different things. You dont need to screw a previous entry.

>could be dreadful, but it might be its own cool thing.
This is the problem though, its not its own thing.

>>15121048
>Irrelevant, batman is a different franchise.
Boy that's convenient. Care to elaborate on why Batman gets to operate on different rules and MMPR HAS to be tonally congruent to the 90's show?

I already said we should just agree to disagree here, but you're also misconstruing my points too. An adaptation in my opinion take the basic ideas and core themes of the original, and personally I think it should be allowed to make its own spin on it. For example, this film still has your five teenagers in high school. But instead of making all five of them nearly perfect goody two-shoes, they all have their own personal problems that they're dealing with, which is much more interesting to see as an audience member, and a liberty they wouldn't have been able to take if they didn't stray from the original.

You're saying that adaptations should be tonally similar to the core material, and sure that's just as valid.

I'm just saying you should hate it because it looks awful, not because it's different.

>>15121053
>It doesnt really need that, its a kids show and fine as it is.
This is nearly the same logic as "Why do we need PR" that Sentai purists prattle. This movie existing does not negate the existence of the MMPR television series.

>>15121119
>Boy that's convenient. Care to elaborate on why Batman gets to operate on different rules and MMPR HAS to be tonally congruent to the 90's show?
Batman is a comic book characterbthat has been going on for decades and renovations of the concept happen within the medium since, elseworlds, aside, batman is largely bruce's story. Power rangers is an episodic 20 year old tv show that takes action footage from another show and renovates itself by having a different team with a different story and lore each year. There's also the fact that you cant keep face actors too long which kinda forces them to do it, whereas batman doesnt have that constraint. Different franchises and different mediums, therefore, different rules. Basic stuff thay only a retard like you doesnt get.

>An adaptation in my opinion take the basic ideas and core themes of the original, and personally I think it should be allowed to make its own spin on it.
Agree. Its not what this movie is doing though.

>For example, this film still has your five teenagers in high school. But instead of making all five of them nearly perfect goody two-shoes, they all have their own personal problems that they're dealing with, which is much more interesting to see as an audience member, and a liberty they wouldn't have been able to take if they didn't stray from the original.
You can have characters with personal problems while keeping the show's tone and not alienate its target audience as pr itself proved time and time again. The idea that a story is only good if its depressing and sad is a misconception.

>I'm just saying you should hate it because it looks awful, not because it's different.

>>15121119
>This is nearly the same logic as "Why do we need PR" that Sentai purists prattle. This movie existing does not negate the existence of the MMPR television series.
Not even close since the movie is part if the pr franchise, it adds to it(something positive or negative). Power rangers and super sentai are different franchises, as power rangers is not promoted as american super sentai.

QFT

PR is a US show about teenage superheroes in a wide-spanning continuity. The only thing it has in common with sentai is shared usage of costumes and a bit of action clips.

Sentai is just the raw material. It's the same way as Voltron: Legendary Defender. It took elements from Go Lion but modified it and diverged enough from the original that it became its own thing.

I miss all kind of vehicles in sentai/PR really. If not bikes then those jeeps Sun Vulcan and Liveman had.
The last one was Deinochaser I think (though the PR version is not that old technically).

>>15123552
Especially when the superior ThunderZords were no match for it.

>>15122904
well to be fair that's something Saban's been doing since ZEO's theme

>>15123689
Zeo starts out as its own thing then goes into Go Go Power Rangers. Goes with the theme the song has of new powers but same old rangers.

Turbo takes it further with little of MMPR's foundation remaining with only a part of GoGo in the instrumental.

Then in space with the remnants of MMPR gone goes in its own direction completely.

Speaking of the bikes, isn't it funny how prominent motorcycles became when MMPR didn't use the footage of Zyuranger's bikes at all? Obviously they didn't need them back when teleportation was a regular occurrence, but still.

They went from not needed, to borrowing bikes from Kakuranger, to just using them sporadically as the footage demanded, to throwing in bikes where there weren't any just for extra merchandising.

>>15123715
How much were they actually used? It was my understanding that they only tended to use them unmorphed.

I wish I could launch you people into the sun. One-liners and quips(yes, quips, they were always quips) have existed since the 80's in action films. You don't get the write to change the fucking record and pretend red is blue because of the MCU.

There's no difference. Just because modern comedy is more sarcastic doesn't change the concept of jokes in films.

>>15124401
Then don't say anything. All I see is a ton of complaining and not taking a step back and having fun. This is the 1st Ranger film we've had in 20 years and the fact that superhero films are all the rage now, we might be able to get a movie franchise out of this like Marvel's.

Its ok to be hopeful, but just because you expect something good out of this doesn't mean people don't have the right to appoint their criticisms to the film

Just because I grew up watching PR on television doesn't mean I'm gonna lie to myself and pretend that it looks like a good movie

If you want to enjoy the movie for what it is, go ahead, enjoy it. Just because I don't see it the same as you doesn't mean you are not allowed to have your fun

It's because of Marvel. Their movies cater to the lowest common denominator who prefer snappy one-liners than actual storytelling. Marvel superhero films are "fun" while WB's are painfully grimdark. How the fuck do you make Superman a brooding character. They could've taken notes from Lois & Clark for fuck's sake.

That always bothers me. I get how, business-wise, it makes sense to exploit MMPR nostalgia, but you should also try to make your franchise overall more popular yet they keep insisting on treating MMPR like if it were the current thing (I'm speaking about vanilla MMPR, exploiting the movie makes SOME sense since, while its still nostalgia pandering, its at least a new product with different cast, designs and story, aside from their actual quality), like if it were more important to tell people "we used to be big" rather than "our franchise is good".
Other franchises like pokemon, while they do exploit nostalgia(and can get really annoying as in PR) also put more care in promoting their newer stuff.

>>15125744
It's hype when done for a reason, like a pivotal action scene, or when their helmets get fucked up in battle, but popping them open while piloting the zords is a pointless and stupid decision, and it's clearly done solely so the actors can get some screen time even during the zord moments.

>>15125751
I DONT MIND WHEN A COOL HELMET HAS AN OPEN FACE ORIGINALLY, BUT THATS NOT WHAT POWER RANGERS ARE ABOUT, CUNT, THE HELMETS, VISORS AND ALL, ARE THE ICONIC IMAGE.

I hate the fact that I can't bring myself to like this suit as much as most people do. It's too fanficky(even if it's better than pretty much every attempt to do something like this). I feel that if Kibaranger and Dragonranger didn't exist I'd like it a bit more.

I think the shield would be cool if it was used in an upgrade form. Actually, recolor the suit from white to green, and it'd be fucking great.

>>15125796

You're not human if that DIDN'T happen.

Or quite possibly a girl, in which case you would've gotten moist as FUCK.

Anyone else very pleasantly surprised? I'm still not 100% on board with the suits and I hate how the visors open in the Zords (which looks awful) and I don't care for the design of the MegaZord or Goldar, but this looks like it'll actually be good or at least fun like the first Transformers was.

Asian Zack, black Billy, and Hispanic Trini look like the most likable characters. The new Jason and the new Kimberly haven't wowed me yet but they also didn't show much of them oddly.

Also, the most important thing to me, was that you can see that they actually use martial arts during combat. I'm honestly pretty impressed.

I like how the giant monster is made of one of the softest metals in existence. Yes I know that's how it was in the original, but still.

No shit

>>15125816
No it wasn't. In the original Goldar was just a flying monkey in a golden suit of armor

>>15125836
My point is it's still gold. A metal so soft you can bend it with your hands.

I'm sure the movie is going to be "bad" because there is no way the source material can ever be a properly "good" movie, but it sure looks like it is going to be the good kind of bad.

It doesn't look grimdark at all and not even that ashamed of the source material. The only way it could be more PR is if the suits were actually spandex and the bad guys rubber.

It does look like I am going to finance Israel when this thing releases.

Quips in the 80s were used to seal a tense scene. Basic moviemaking. You hike up the tension and then you let it go with a relaxed scene. That's how you make a movie flow.

Marvelshit quips CONSTANTLY. They can NEVER build up any semblance of danger or threat because the main characters always act like they're too smart to be in their own movie. MCU humor is closer to Last Action Hero than actual 80s movie quips.

You should stick your own head in the oven.

Also that trailer looks god awful, using the same dark blue scheme that DCshit loved to abuse.

>>15125871
Ah. I've been waiting for some autist to shit out a counter point to that post.

>>15125704
Casuals aren't familiar with the rest of PR. MMPR is what caught the mainstream's attention because we've never seen anything like it before on US TV, Jurassic Park came out that year and kids love dinosaurs, and MMPR went on for 3 seasons.

Plus neckbeards are always obsessed with the first series like Transformers G-1 fans for example. MMPR is their circlejerk for Jason, Tommy, Dinozords, and other gimmicks they crave for.

>>15125871
I think the major issue with the MCU's obsession with quips is with Spiderman now finally back in Marvel's hands, he loses his major character trait. If everyone quips, Spiderman doesn't stand out as being THE quip hero. The only way he'll be able to stand out against fucking Ironman in the MCU is if every line he speaks is a quip

>>15125861
Same here. I don't expect a certified fresh rating on RT, but no way is this going to be 2017's Fant4stic like some are saying. For one, the suits have actual color.

Molten Goldar looks a bit too dumb even for the source material, but I admit I miss Grifforzer's design and Goldar's voice. But on the whole, I hope for a fun ride. Should be a nice break from all the cape stuff.

>>15125839
It's magic gold

>>15125907
They don't even know what to do with that thoroughly raped character. What is even left of it?

>>15125818
Could be short for Trinidad. Honestly it makes more sense for a Latina. Trini itself isn't a real Asian name.

>>15125938
Philipino name? That's asian.

>>15125921
>but no way is this going to be 2017's Fant4stic like some are saying
You never know. I was really disappointed with that film after seeing Chronicle. I expected a little more from Fox, but man, they really fucked that up.

At best, this film might make 200 million total and I'm being generous here. I highly doubt we're gonna get a Power Rangers Cinematic Universe on par with Marvel and Star Wars.

>>15125941
Filipinos are the Latinos of Asia

Fuck off.

>>15125938
Trini was Latina in the "lost episode" pilot

>>15125954
Sun Vulcan is great fun except for the volleyball they used instead of a cannon.

>>15125950
Two of the writers did Gods of Egypt, hence Liquid Gold Goldar. The director did Project Alamanc hence the awkward teen moments. Remember this is Lionsgate, their highest-grossing films are the Hunger Games so take that as you will.

>>15125818

Actually, the way this Trini pronounces her name is different.

She says it like TRIN-I (like the word TRINITY)
while the original Trini said it more like TREE-NI like Tree.

>>15125969
>Generic race joke
>Fucking drug joke
>That's uncomfortably forced "HELLO FELLOW TEENS" dialogue
>Those atrocious designs

Also, called it on Goldar being a voiceless final monster grunt.

>>15125944
On par, no, but a sequel at least

I hope they don't forget unmorphed fight scenes.

>>15125992
they have powers while unmorphed. You better believe they'll have some of that atrocious not-superhero bullshit.

>>15125981
There is no way they aren't going to hype the green ranger and/or Lord Zedd after this, and it looks like it might just make enough for a sequel. Fucking Ninja Turtles got one and this seems likely to make more money than that.

>>15125978
Probably. I'm even surprised an actor of Cranston's caliber agreed to doing this, but then again that fuckwit is a Stalin apologist so whatever.

I do wonder how and why Elizabeth Banks thought this was a good idea. Maybe for her kids?

>>15125981
Maybe. A lot of these movies created from kid nostalgia like Transformers, Ninja Turtles, and G.I. Joe prove that studios don't know what the fuck they're doing and just trying to pander shit for as much cash as possible.

So I might see a sequel in 2-3 years, but I'm willing to bet it's gonna make less money than this.

>>15126000
It's funny how there's an MMPR movie AND an MMPR comic now. Nobody gives a shit about other seasons like Space, Time Force, Mystic, Ninja Storm, SPD or RPM.

>>15125944

Hey, if it turns out that the movie's garbage in the best way, at least we'll be entertained. Or at least I will. I plan to milk every goddamn penny that theater gouges from me. You want ~$10-12 USD for an adult ticket? Fiiiine. But that shit better be gold in one way or another.

>>15125978

>Generic race joke

NO FUCKING SHIT; they saw the ball coming over the net and they're spiking it over.


>Fucking drug joke

The hilarity of it comes from how outta left field it comes from.


>That's uncomfortably "HELLO FELLOW TEENS" dialogue

I'll grant you that, but they feel more like teens and less like adults-trying-to-play-teens to me.

>Those atrocious designs

They grew on me and we finally got to see how they move in this trailer. Yes, the fucking zords scenes are gonna be weird (at best), but at least they didn't FUCKING RECYCLE 20+ YEAR OLD PROPS for no other purpose other than DAT NOSTALGIA.

>>15125774
It was implied in the show itself they weren't fully normal humans when they became rangers. This, being a serious take on this, tries to do something about it in the same way RPM did.
And don't get me wrong, I dislike pretty much everything we've seen for this movie, but that's not a wrong thing.

>>15125861
> because there is no way the source material can ever be a properly "good" movie
hollywood pls

>>15125901
I know, but if you only appeal to casuals and nostalgiafags AKA people who can already be interested in the franchise (on different levels) you will never add new fans, casuals or whatever.

>>15125999
Unmorphed fights are toku tradition, powers or not.

Anyone else hoping that if this gets a sequel they jump straight to Zeo? It'd make for a much better escalation of plot and world-building.

PR will never catch onto the mainstream because there's too many seasons to wade through and studios are risk-averse nowadays. Why bother introducing people into the rest of PR when the Dinozord era is what's iconic about them?

Face it, this isn't the 90's or even 00's anymore. PR is only being sustained by the power of neckbeard and getting JUST enough attention from kiddies these days.

>>15126024
It's literally a project POWERED BY NOSTALIGA, whats the fucking POINT of making a movie fueled by nostalgia and CHANGING EVERYTHING

It's like having a Transformer's movie and killing off every character OH WAIT

>>15126064
Not really. The change to Zeo was only impactful because people had grown used to the Zyuranger suits. It doesn't work if all your contact with the suits was 2 hours and so.

After some three movies (which won't happen), who knows.

Now that the basic plot of the movie is out and rita and goldar will probably be dead by the end
What should the sequel be?
