Power Rangers Anyone?

[Kal-El 8]

The Green Ranger saga needs a DVD release.

Agreed as does "White Light" , "King For A Day" ,"Fighting Spirit" etc .Or Why don't they just released a dvd set of Tommy Oliver (Featuring All of The Best episodes of Tommy Oliver from MMPR to PRDT)

[3dman27]

good idea

[Sam Fisher]

"White Light" was on the "Best Of" DVD.

[RangerKing]

Amazing. I haven't been in this thread in nearly a month and its ten pages deeper. I will just bypass those ten pages of probably a billion redundant posts and arguments between posters instead of real discussion.

I'm basically announcing that my website, RangerMania, will no longer function as an information website. Right now the plan for RangerMania is to play host to a podcast regarding Power Rangers (and occasionally Super Sentai when my co-hosts engage in that department with me saying what I think shouldn't go into the show based on what small clips and text information I had previously read), a depository for my interviews, and new news regarding the show. The information, whose past life was originally a site called Legacy of Power and was planned to be incorporated into RangerMania, is currently being reformatted and expanded into a book format. This format would cover just about everything there is to cover in the Power Rangers Universe and is planned to include Power Rangers Jungle Fury and Power Rangers 2009 (possibly 2010 as well) as I'm sure it'll take me a while to write. When the book is complete I will probably release it as an e-book in a PDF format or try and publish it in the open market. Thanks for your support, and if you think you could help, you could always ask and I could look into it.

Alpha's voice sounded bad. Why was he kept in a box in the middle of nowhere?
Alpha was also mad tall for no reason. I was scared. Disney completely ruined my childhood thoughts of alpha by giving us that crap. They didn't even try.

[Iron Fist]

I can't believe they aren't showing Lost Galaxy right after In Space ended. I wanted to see Lost Galaxy as I don't remember the season very well.

I was trying to seem "elitist" and was just saying that you know nothing really changed in the month that I haven't posted. Which is something I can see anywhere when there's a grouping of Power Rangers fans.

Dude...it's Power Rangers. For the few people who actually do post in this thread, we talk about the things we like in this children's show, talk about the things we don't like in this children's show, and then we walk out of the room.

Get over yourself a bit, RK. There's no need for it. I mean, I understand the franchise means a lot to you, and you'd like to see a more "mature" appreciation and response for the series. I feel the same way (to an extent) at times. However, you can't go around putting down people 'cause they don't share your sentiments. It's not the Power Ranger way. :heart:

[nogap87]

Oh c'mon. I loved to see two Red Rangers in one season.

The only time I like to see Rangers with the same color is when they're beating the crap out of each other (Psycho Rangers) or for some special team up (Forever Red). Any other time I like the rangers to have their own colors (especially the 6th).

But thats just me. Eric was still an ok Ranger.

Dude DT was far from boring or lame , It was quite Good it brought back The Old School element that's been missing since series finale of PR : IN Space (Zordon's Era) .

Plus an added extra bonus brought back The best Legendary Ranger back into Action Tommy Oliver .

Jason David Frank should be brought back more often. What really needs to happen is for Disney or whoever controls the rights to Power Rangers is for them to do a new theatrical movie featuring every Power Ranger & Zord possible & then put the whole Power Rangers series to rest afterwards. It's the longest running live action series ever but eventually they need to end it.

[Superman-Prime]

Dino Thunder is the worst season ever along with those four pathetic that Disney made.

Conner was one of the worst Red Ranger ever along with Disney's Red Rangers. They are all pussy and whining. Trent sucked as the White Ranger. Ethan was annoying and I can't stand him completely. Completely moron along with Idiot Conner.

Mesogog wasn't awesome main villain at all. Zeltrax sucked hard. Same with Elsa.

The story of Tommy and Smitty/Zeltrax, SUCKED and pathetic.

What could've a lot better for Dino Thunder....

-Trent to stay evil for a long time before the finale.
-If Tommy's not in Dino Thunder, then Dr. Edward Payne.
-If Tommy's in Dino Thunder, then Katherine / Zeltrax. It makes more story between Tommy and Katherine.
-Tommy's not being stuck into his suit.

Dino. Thunder. Sucked. Period.

Disney is not making Power Rangers to be an awesome and badass, like Saban's Era.

Disney's Power Rangers.... every Rangers, villains and the allies, they are completely idiots with bubbling, motormouth and retarded gay lame comedy.

Lothor sucked and he wasn't threated to everyone completely.

[Catman]

Dino Thunder is the worst season

DT had potential but turned out to be a disapointment.

Tommy getting stuck in his tights for 1/3 of the season was an embarassment.

Trent is a pussy.

[Catman]

Tommy getting stuck in his tights for 1/3 of the season was an embarassment.

He made up for it with Fighting Spirit episode.

[Justice Bringer]

No not really. The character was still compromised for a chunk of the series in a very undignifying manner..... stuck in his tights....slimed...invisible...

DT had good ideas but sucked in the execution.

His final appearance in the DT finale was very underwhelming as well.

Fighting Spirit and the Premiere was all they did right with Tommy.

[TheCorpulent1]

Back in Black, too.

[Superman-Prime]

^ Blah. I never really cared about Disney's.

Well... Kamen Rider Dragon Knight will surpass Disney's Power Rangers for good. I can't wait to see Dragon Knight in March, 2008.

Anyone think Disney will bust a pinocchio and make Mack a real boy by the end of the season. Those jewels changed Tyzonn back to normal so I wager it's not too much of a stretch.

lol they cant feel what we feel if u kno what i mean lol

[DigificWriter]

I'm a major PR fan, but haven't yet caught up with the current season (the last ep I saw was the team-up "Once A Ranger"). I do know about Mack being an android, though, and am not quite sure how I feel about it. Yeah, it's an interesting idea, but is also one of those things that has the potential to come off as being REALLY cheesy.

JOOC, what is everyone's favorite PR series, and why? Mine is Ninja Storm, since I feel it was the first series since PRiS to really capture the feel of the original MMPR, and was very similar to that series in its execution, storyline, and characters. Runner-up favorite series for me are Time Force, PRiS, PRMF, and PRLG, although not necessarily in that order.

[TheCorpulent1]

Just thought everyone might like to know that Emma Lahana of Dino Thunder will be guest-starring on an episode of Stargate Atlantis this season. One of the producers/head writers mentioned it in a blog post (http://josephmallozzi.blogspot.com/2007/09/september-21-2007.html) and even posted some pictures of her (towards the bottom of the bunch of pics) on set. :up:

At least you didn't get Madison or Vida. :)

[GL1]

Wow... sad how something can go instantly from "a dissappointment" to: THE WORST EVAR!

When you have Turbo, Wild Force, Lost Galaxy. Zeo and Mystic Force sitting around, it's REALLY hard to imagine DT has being the worst EVAR. They certainly didn't have the worst villain. (Divatox anyone? Really?) Or the worst Red Ranger (SuperNick? Tarzan's missing kid?) and you certainly don't think that Tommy was a worse mentor/"sixth" ranger than... Phantom Ranger (Talk about not getting out of costume) or Blue Centurion!!!

But yeah, Disney is going to continually miss opportunities cuz they just don't see the show from the same scope as the Saban era, they have this one little season to tell these compact little tell-em-in-any-order type stories, and these teeny tiny budgets. It's insanity.

WOr the worst Red Ranger (SuperNick? Tarzan's missing kid?) and you certainly don't think that Tommy was a worse mentor/"sixth" ranger than... Phantom Ranger (Talk about not getting out of costume) or Blue Centurion!!!
I thought the Phantom Ranger was a pretty cool ally. He was never really a Sixth Ranger, since he barely ever actually fought alongside the other Rangers. He was just an alien dude who popped up to give the Rangers cryptic information and generally be mysterious and cool.

The Blue Senturion, on the other hand, sucked.

You can find the helmets on ebay. but they might not be from the 90's. Hand made is your best opinion.

[Superman-Prime]

Will Operation Overdrive be the final Power Rangers series ever?

No. There will be a new Power Rangers series next year. It is called Power Rangers Jungle Fury.

There's a rumor that Jungle Fury could be the last PR series due to Power Rangers Animated Series. I refuse to watch PR animated series.

I hope Power Rangers Jungle Fury to be a good season. PLEASE! No more comedy, pathetic slow-mo, wire-fu, no more stupidity villains and others...etc.

Apparently they are solving that by making RJ have a fascination with the 60s/70s. Hes supposedly a retro junkie.

[RangerKing]

It's not just an Australian cast (I haven't checked nationalities), but there are New Zealanders in the cast and the show films in New Zealand.

[unknowndarkness]

Yeah I'm refering to the continent Australia.. I could Kiwis as part of that group. No big difference.

There are no UKers in this cast; unlike last year....certainly no Americans.

[TheCorpulent1]

It's gotta be cheaper to go local than to fly American or UK actors out there. No big deal, really. We'll be able to compare how terrible the Australians' and New Zealanders' accents are. :)

Speaking of which, I wonder why they don't just allow them to speak in their natural accents and just claim these particular Rangers operate out of Australia. What, there are never any alien invasions down under?

There are barely any black people in NZ. Its doubtful we'll see another black ranger unless they cast from the UK again (Benta).

Given the budget cuts is probably why they are forced to cast locals now.

[Tony Almeida 24]

The Operation Overdrive finale aired in the UK.

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b276/morgan_lamia/mackmorphmorganlamia.gif

It was rushed and somewhat disapointing. Nice fights but the conclusion with Mack turning human was weak and the resolution to the Hartford/Mack conflict was also kinda lame. Mack's sacrifice to destroy Flurious seemed unnecessary (since Flurious was already weakened and down) and the battilizer beating the power of the Corona Aurora totally makes the crown seem like nothing significant. It just changed Flurious into a regular random MOTD. The choppy 45 second zord fight was unnecessary too. The resolution of the Tyzonn/Vella thing was just tacked in at the end randomly.

This finale gets a 2.5 out of 5 for me.

The only points it gets are for the cool fights and nice morphing sequences.

Overall I would give a 3 out of 5 to OO as a whole. It certainly had a few good episodes (Face to Face, Home and Away [which felt more like a finale than this], Man of Mercury) but the execution of the overall stories and arcs that were set up were weak and the acting ranged from average to bad. Norg proved utterly worthless all season. The only interesting character was Mack and they ultimately didnt do anything significant with his storyline beyond "Things Not Said" and his resolution was predictable and weak. Aside from Adam returning, the teamup was pretty forgettable as well.

Theres no question Boukenger owned Overdrive, I honestly wasnt expecting anything different.

[Bastila]

I haven't seen the final yet lol I am 6 episodes away, but I will see it by the end of the week.

I really loved Once A Ranger watched it again today as it was on Jetix cool episodes.

When was the final airred over here? what day?

[Tony Almeida 24]

Yesterday I believe.

Part II of "Once a Ranger" was decent (minus unmorphed Mack going DBZ on the grown monster) but Part I was just 30 slowmo Kalishplosions in 23 minutes.

[Bastila]

Yeah Part 2 was awsome, I loved it the other rangers had there shows theme in the backroudn.
I didn't like when Mack did that it was stupid like how did he jump that high lol Dax can.

But I liked the whole cheesy 'Power Rangers forever, Go go power rangers' things they said in it, I know its sad but I loved it

Tori is cool, I was happy they brought her back I really like NS now.

And Buttery lol

[Tony Almeida 24]

I hated Tori. I like her when the TV is on mute but her nasal-pitched voice sounds like nails on a chalkboard.

And Bridge just doesnt work as a Red Ranger.

[Bastila]

lol I agree she does have a weird voice, but after a while it didn't borther me at first I as like annoying but now its ok.

What did you think of the OO team overall?

[Kal-El 8]

Crown and Punishment

Man what a crapy predictable ending . This has got to be the worst series finale in Power Ranger history . The two parter episode "Home and Away" had a much more serious Finale feel to it .

So Mack's is really Pinocchio huh . (Andrew Hartford is Geppetto ) & ( Spencer is Jiminy Cricket) LAME :whatever:

[Tony Almeida 24]

The team?

Mack - James was the only actor with talent and was given the most interesting storyline but the execution was poor (not his fault; the writers). Mack gets a 3/5.

Will - Most of his episodes were good. His character was predictable but cool. His acting ranged from good to awful. "Laaaaazuuurs" 3/5

Tyzonn - This character could have been an easy 5/5 if they maintained his characterization from Face to Face and Man of Mercury. Instead they turned him into a complete weirdo for the sake of comic relief for a huge chunk of the season until randomly throwing the Vella plot in (which ultimately amounted to nothing). 2.5/5

Ronny - Nice to look at. Aside from that there was nothing interesting about her. Shes destined to be one of the forgotten rangers in a few years. They still never explained why the Fearcats specifically wanted her (since Yellow had a huge role in the sentai series). The racecar stuff has all been done before with Lucas and even he got more development than her. 2/5

Rose - Barely got any focus all season. The episode with her and Tyzonn was one of the worst acted episodes I've ever seen on PR (reminded me of Wildforce). Her accent was just plain weird. I dont think she ever did an American accent right once. Shes doomed to be forgotten as well. 1.5/5

Dax - Annoying and rarely ever funny. I noticed they convienently shut him up in the last few episodes. I dont think I've ever heard him do a proper American accent either. I hate how he delivers his lines. Bad actor. 1/5


It wasnt that good a team overall.

[Kal-El 8]

What did you think of the OO team overall?

Will was cool , Tyzonn was a badass as The Mercury Ranger (He should've been the team leader) , Veronica was a hot babe , Rose (In the very beginning was Annoying, But she grew on me mid-way, Now I like her a lot.)

Mack just didn't cut for me as a real team Leader Red Ranger . Dax was just their to be the Comic relief guy of the group .

Overall this Ranger team was average at best .

[OobeDoobBenubi]

I guess for future team ups they can use the explination that when the Sentient Knight restored the Once A Ranger Rangers Powers he actually restored all old Power Ranger powers.

[Tony Almeida 24]

Yeah the team really needed a badass leader like Akashi

Any updates on the History of PR documentary Tony Oliver is supposed to be producing?

[Kal-El 8]

Any updates on the History of PR documentary Tony Oliver is supposed to be producing?

You mean Tommy Oliver ?

[Legend Killer]

You mean Tommy Oliver ?

No, Tony Oliver.

http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0031407/

He was one of the original Producers on PR until about Zeo I think. I was watching a few of the videos from the Power Morphicon Convention on YT, and he mentions he was also doing some filming for a History of PR documentary he was putting together.

[Tony Almeida 24]

Alright guys.

Thats it.

It seems Jungle Fury is the FINAL season of live action Power Rangers :(

[Super Kal]

but will the sentai series keep going?

[OobeDoobBenubi]

It seems Jungle Fury is the FINAL season of live action Power Rangers :(

Where was that confirmed ?

[Tony Almeida 24]

Go to Rangerboard. Its stickied at the top. Poweranimals was able to get confirmation from his sources who work on the show. Theyve always been reliable. Benta had previously mentioned this too and according to what PA told me; Disney is set on making JF the final year... but they will not mention it since they want to avoid harassment from the fans.

And yes; sentai will continue in 2008 with Enjin Sentai Gouonger.

[OobeDoobBenubi]

If it was going to be the last season of Live Action Power Rangers dont you think it would have been smart to get a bunch of old Rangers back for it & be new Rangers one last time :huh:

[Tony Almeida 24]

Yup. Thats how I would have done it.... but this is Disney. PR will end with a subpar season like JF with halfassed actors like the OO ones.

Theres also been a major budget cut this year since its supposedly getting too expensive to film in NZ (thats why disney doesnt want to fund PR anymore).

[Kal-El 8]

So your saying after 16 years The POWER RANGERS Legacy comes to an End with Jungle Fury . Is this some kind of Joke ?

[OobeDoobBenubi]

So your saying after 16 years The POWER RANGERS Legacy comes to a End with Jungle Fury . Is this some kind of Joke ?

I hope it is man that would be such a lame way to end Live Action Power Rangers :(

[Colossal Spoons]

The last 3 or 4 seasons have been lame ways to end the PR legacy :o

[Super Kal]

that sucks...

any places where I can get some info on Gouonger?

[Bastila]

So your saying after 16 years The POWER RANGERS Legacy comes to an End with Jungle Fury . Is this some kind of Joke ?

You know I agree

I don't think Disney will stop making live action ones, its a popular TV show and Sentai is still going strong and plus they sell loads of mech

If it does go Anime I do not like anime so I wont watch it, so I'll be watching Sentai more then I do now lol.

[COMPO]

So your saying after 16 years The POWER RANGERS Legacy comes to an End with Jungle Fury . Is this some kind of Joke ?

it should have ended when Zordon died.

[Bastila]

it should have ended when Zordon died.

Ha your kidding right, if it did we would have never got Time Force or Dino Thunder or Lost Galaxy


Zordon is over rated anyway, just like MMPR, In Space was soooo much better and TF was betting then MMPR in my opinion.

[Kal-El 8]

it should have ended when Zordon died.

True, but since it didn't .

[Havok83]

SPD was probably the best PR in years

[Colossal Spoons]

I could/should have stopped watching after Lost Galaxy

[Havok83]

I could/should have stopped watching after Lost Galaxy
I stopped watching midway through Zeo and thought didnt watch another till SPD. I didnt even know the show was still on at that time

[Abaddon]

I stopped watching after Space. But I did catch some of the later shows

[Mr Jide]

Dammit!! PR should have ended with zeo. Everything else sucked and just became even more painfully silly. Nothing comes close to the greatness of MMPR...anyone who was actually around to watch MMPR when they first aired would know what I'm talking about, not these lil' plebs who watch the reruns.

[Incrediblejeff]

god if its one thing I hate, its MMPR fans who think its the best season ever :whatever:

MMPR is really cheap and cheesy and kid like I don't like to watch it now.

Now if you watch In Space, Time Force, Lost Galaxy and SPD they are SOOOO much BETTER then MMPR ever was.

I'm glad it kept going as we got real seasons with real stories and great character and better seasons.

[Abaddon]

but the acting seemed to get progressively worse after Zeo.:o

[deathshead2]

Well since the live action show is gone, im wondering if they'll be going with the cartoon.
If they do they could bring back some of the old cast. Since JYB is a voice actor. They could bring him back with no problem.
Its really funny that NZ is getting to costly to film their now. Maybe they should move it back here, or even canada.

[Red X]

I'm laughing at some idiots at Rangerboard. They want to support Power Rangers.

Good luck with that.

And **** YOU, DISNEY, for ruining all five seasons of Power Rangers with pathetic retarded comedy, bunch of idiots, wire-fu, huge explosives and slow-motion. I'm not going to support Power Rangers and Disney.

In my book, Wild Force is the last season I really cared about. I loved Saban's.

Rest In Peace

Power Rangers

(1993-2002)

Now, I'm moving on to Kamen Rider Dragon Knight next year.

When powers rangers first came out, I was 8. I'm 22 now. So if I go back and watch MMPR now, of course it'll probably suck but despite its flaws, it s amore cohesive and better character driven series that the throwaway latter seasons. The only thing that gave the latter seasons some credibility were the hot chicks but other than that, the series were equally silly and in most cases sillier. Whereas MMPR came out in the early 90s so its level of cheese and sillyness can be forgiven. Also, the merchandising of power rangers related stuff peaked with MMPR...go figure.:o

[Road Warrior]

Disney is set on making JF the final year...

It's about time!

Power Rangers has always been a crappy show. What MMPR has going for it is nostalgia.

[Superman-Prime]

Power Rangers has always been a crappy show BECAUSE OF DISNEY!

[Primal Slayer]

I think if Disney deciedes to end PR, just go and give us yearly Disney PR movies. That would work for me.

[Abaddon]

I like the early seasons because they were all friends, and they had some fighting skills/athletic ability before they became rangers. Unlike the later seasons where pretty much anyone gained instant kung fu knowledge just from morphing.

[Road Warrior]

I like the early seasons because they were all friends, and they had some fighting skills/athletic ability before they became rangers.

Agreed. I also like how there was continuity. Nowadays they start every season from scratch! 1993-1998 was PR at its prime.

Unlike the later seasons where pretty much anyone gained instant kung fu knowledge just from morphing.

That was actually the case even back then! Remember Billy? In season one he was learning to fight yet he turned into a martial arts master when morphing. lol.

[Abaddon]

Not in the beginning.:o

The ending of OO was lame. That was the ending last week, right? Either way, as much as I love the concept of Power Rangers, it just gets worst.

Well, we never know. If people notice, I'm not exactly sure, but I don't think the OO team lost their powres. Plus, Adam's OO team possibly still had their powers. Meh, maybe I'm wishfully thinking.

And I love your Avvy.

Even though he fought better while he was morphed, atleast he wasnt a great martial aritst when he was unmoprhed unlike everyone who became a ranger during the later seasons. In the beginning each ranger had a streangth in their fighting (IE: Kim using a lot of her gymnastics in her fights, Katherine not being all that great in fighting). Now even when they are unmorphed they just know every move there is in the book.

A Power Rangers animated series completely ruins the appeal of Power Rangers in the first place. :huh:

It's a live action superhero show for kids, with fake giant robots and wire-fu. What's not to love? And now Disney dumps all over that by animating it and making it just another hyperactive cartoon on Saturdays.

[Tony Almeida 24]

Really you got a link?

Inside information ;)

I hope it fails :cmad: :cmad:

I'm very worried the cartoon will be a reboot/new continuity because I strongly doubt Disney would set this MMPR cartoon in the early 90s.

Voltron is an animated version of Super Sentai and it was successful. So...an animated Power Rangers may work if done right.

I am just at the end of season 5 hehe, bit behind aren't I lol.

[Lunar_Wolf]

If they begin to animate, there is so many characters you could bring back. But at the same time who really wants an animated PR?:dry:

[Nathan]

What about dubbing the original Shows? Would anyone like that?

[Sam Fisher]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n5Bz8kEbMk

Is all of this stuff about Disney turning PR into an animated show confirmed somewhere, or is it all just rampant speculation based on rumors?

Can't tell from the teaser if it's going to be good or not.
Costumes look good.

[Road Warrior]

If done right they could pull it off. Like I said earlier, Voltron is basically an animated Sentai and it was popular.

[Arkady Rossovich]

Why is it that Power Rangers series keep being made?The franchise is already dead,and only the original series was any good.

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v237/DPaC4686/powerrangers.jpg

[Reptile]

If they make a animated series they should go back to MMPR

[TheCorpulent1]

If they made an animated series, I'd kind of want to see them either bring the original MMPR back together for a really serious threat that only they could handle or pull together fan-favorite characters from various seasons to form a "Legendary Rangers" sort of team. If they don't need to deal with bringing the original actors back, there's nothing stopping them from doing either, which would probably make a lot of fans happy.

[Abaddon]

Not Trini....:csad:

[TheCorpulent1]

As sad as the actress' death is, there's nothing stopping them from getting a voice actress to stand in for her in an animated series.

[Catman]

Not Trini....:csad:

Agreed. Replace Trini with another character.

[Cmill216]

Aisha. Double the blackness for the original team. :up:

[TheCorpulent1]

It wouldn't really be the "original" team then, would it? If people are so averse to having Trini, I'd prefer to just see the Ranger All-Stars thing. Of course, people would argue endlessly about why their favorite character didn't make it on the team. I know I'd be upset if Adam weren't on there.

True...but as long as you have Tommy, Jason, Zack, Kimberly, and Billy most people should be happy.

[Abaddon]

I don't want Billy back.:o

Besides, they're all in their 30s. It wouldn't work unless they made the show more adult.

[Catman]

I don't want Billy back.:o

I was never really a Billy fan either, but he IS the brains of the group. He's a very important character.

Besides, they're all in their 30s. It wouldn't work unless they made the show more adult.

I'm 99.9% sure that the whole point of the animated series is to restart the franchise.

[Kevin D. Comicboy]

It would only be cartoons, and cartoons rarely age.

[Abaddon]

then they should definitely use all the originals. It's not as if they'd all return to do the voices anyway.

and what exactly are they doing? I dont see most of hte actors having many acting gigs these days and not much after PR. Besides, I dont think they need the original actors. If they do do a cartoon, this is going to be for a new generation of fans, kids who most likely havent seen the original series and arent connected with the original characters/actors. I dont think they are aiming this for the original fans who are all older and in their 20s now

[Lunar_Wolf]

Power Rangers would work better if they spent at least 3 seasons with the same characters like what MMPR did season 1-3.
Having almost two seasons each year makes me not care about characters, because they do not have development.

[Nathan]

The Sentai Shows manage just fine with only 1 season. I don't know why it's so difficult for Power Rangers. I mean, come one. 50+ Episodes, how much more do you need for character development?

[Lunar_Wolf]

The Sentai Shows manage just fine with only 1 season. I don't know why it's so difficult for Power Rangers. I mean, come one. 50+ Episodes, how much more do you need for character development?
There is so much more you could do with more seasons based on the same characters.

More seasons means you could have more storylines based on the same characters. With more development, you could care about the characters more. I loved Ninja Storm-I wish I could have seen more of these characters:cmad:

[Nathan]

I rather have new characters each Season, than to watch the same characters getting one new power-up after another. It gets ridiculous after some time. Like Zordon having so many different Powers and Zords, yet he never bothered to tell the Rangers.

[Havok83]

I also think its a bit harder for them to do same characters each season. MMPR seasons 1-3 pretty much used only 1 season worth of Sentai footage. I think the power differences and footage is just alot more drastically different now from season to season. How would they explain the Dino Tunder gang turning into futuristic sci-fi cops and then into magic based rangers? I think staring new each seasons allows them to avoid that and no come up with some convoluted excuses and it also helps to keep things fresh and new. As much as I loved the SPD gang, Im glad it ended where it did bc I dont think they would have fit in with the Mystic Force theme. The characters work for their particular season/theme and wont necesarily make a good transition to the next one that follows

[Lunar_Wolf]

Zordon was a secretive dick.

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, there were a lot of situations where the Rangers were like, "oh noez, we've lost our powers and we're completely at the evil dudes' mercy!" and Zordon's like, "Oh wait, kids, didn't I tell you about the Ninja/Zeo/Turbo powers? I could've sworn I--no? Not at all? Oh well, they're there; quit whining and go use 'em."

[Cmill216]

Yeah, there were a lot of situations where the Rangers were like, "oh noez, we've lost our powers and we're completely at the evil dudes' mercy!" and Zordon's like, "Oh wait, kids, didn't I tell you about the Ninja/Zeo/Turbo powers? I could've sworn I--no? Not at all? Oh well, they're there; quit whining and go use 'em."

Which is why, with nostalgia removed, I really prefer many of the latter seasons to the original. Just more...."substance". :huh:

[TheCorpulent1]

I prefer PRiS to pretty much all else. Zordon was reduced to the damsel in distress and the legacy aspect of the Rangers was played up really well. That was like my JSA of the PR franchise. Everything from various parts of the PR universe came together to work really well there.

[Abaddon]

I hated Ninjor. Hated him.

[Cmill216]

It's the voice, isn't it? :csad:

[TheCorpulent1]

I thought everyone did. Wasn't that his reason for existing in the first place? To be a receptacle for all our impotent rage?

[Abaddon]

I'd like to use him as a receptacle for more than just that.:down


I wish they'd have just followed movie continuity.

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, that hot, half-naked chick was far better than Ninjor.

[Abaddon]

yeah, she was tasty. Things got a little PG-13 when she started spinning those sticks.:o


It's the voice, isn't it? :csad:

only Marvin Martian can pull it off, and even then it's annoying after a while.

[DawnWarrior]

God, remember the very first scene of the very first episode of the very first season? It has these to moron astronauts on the moon finding Rita's capsule and opening it. Rita emerges with her goons and declares she will now conquer the nearest planet, which just happens to be our Earth. 1) Who the hell are these idiot astronauts and what are they doing on the moon? We never see or hear from those guys again. 2) The moon is not that close to Earth. We see Earth in the sky of what is supposed to be the moon, and it's HUGE.

Ha ha, memories.

[shadowforce420]

The Sentai Shows manage just fine with only 1 season. I don't know why it's so difficult for Power Rangers. I mean, come one. 50+ Episodes, how much more do you need for character development?

Sentai gets that, PR only has about 30 episodes a year. You can't get between a network and thier money.

[Catman]

The Sentai Shows manage just fine with only 1 season. I don't know why it's so difficult for Power Rangers.

Because American and Japanese television IS NOT the same. I mean, seriously, have you seen Japanese television?

You could never air this in America:

That was one of many flaws that the show had.

Ok, I don't see how slapping balls has anything to do with character development. o_O

[Catman]

Ok, I don't see how slapping balls has anything to do with character development. o_O

All I'm saying is that Sentai can get away with a new cast every season, but PR struggles with that because American television is different.

[Superman-Prime]

Jungle Fury looks absolutely terrible.


I guess you haven't seen Gekiranger.

[gkokujin]

god i hate power rangers.

always have always will.


I remember when it first hit air waves I was excited, and then i watched it. It was like I was being lobotomized.


THEN ONE FATEFUL DAY...i discovered Sentai.

It made me hate Saban and power rangers even more.


I love Toku, and I WISH the US would take it as serious as the japanese.

Because if GARO ever made it to the US, i think it would be an instant hit.

[Bastila]

I like both, but Super Sentai is awsome, I was glad to find it as well, I love watching both counterparts, for me sometimes I prefer the Sentai sometimes its both, and sometimes I like the PR season morel lol.


But I think any ranger fan if they have nevet seen Sentai should watch it, I am glad I did.

I am about to start Geki ranger I finished Bouken last week, good final I liked the ending was cute :p

Gkokjin, I agree with you about Garo, wickedly dark i'd watch it.

[TheCorpulent1]

I guess you haven't seen Gekiranger.
Nope, I never watch sentai. But the costumes really suck, and I've always liked city-based Rangers more than wilderness-based ones. Jungle Fury gives me bad flashbacks to Wild Force. :(

And thats how Disney wants to end Power Rangers. :oldrazz:

[TheCorpulent1]

Sad. Still, if they're really doing an animated version afterwards, I don't think it's a total loss. Provided it's actually animated well and they put good characters in it, anyway.

See thats one thing I don't like its the outfits like I said I am going to start watching it, but I prefer the other outfits, and the fact that there is no belt freaks me out lol.

[TheCorpulent1]

Yeah, the costumes look like really shiny pajamas without belts.

[Bastila]

It just doesn't look like SS/PR to me at all, it makes me mad and feel ew they look stupid.

Dude. You have to know that Gekiranger is based on Martial arts, Jackie Chan, Jet Li, Sammo Hung, Michelle Yeoh, Bruce Lee and more...etc.

About the costumes, the Rangers costumes are based on Bruce Lee's famous Yellow Jumpsuit.

Also, GekiViolet is based on Tony Jaa and Thai style as well.

I might give GekiRangers a chance, i didnt like Bouken ranger.

I LOVED MajiRangers though.

An ugly piece of **** based on God Himself is still just an ugly piece of ****. :confused:

you really don't know what you are missing. The plots are more intricate, and more serious, often times than not there is FAR less buffonery than in the stuff they rape and put on american TV and call power rangers.

I watched the entire season of Majiranger before it became Mystic Force and I was blown away by how good it actually was, then I figured I would give Mystic Force a TRY (considering i actually liked the american SPD...to an extent). Mystic force was the biggest steaming hot pile of **** I have ever seen...since the first season of MMPR.

give it a try. I can give you a site (PM me) to get them all subtitled.

[Abaddon]

didn't one of the Rangers die in the Japanese version of MMPR?
