Power Rangers Anyone?

[PyroChamber]

I can't believe it's been 17 years since MMPR appeared on our TV screens, damn I feel old.

[CBG]

Old? Ancient is better. . . especially if you watched the original Sentai series.

[Man of Tomorrow]

I thought it was, but it seems you're right.
http://www.actionfigureinsider.com/main/?p=2768

No dude.

We got recent confirmation afterwards on rangerboard and henshinjustice.

The Bandai toyline will continue but the TV Show is dead.

They'll be shutting down production forever soon.

[Man of Tomorrow]

The villainess in RPM was only 1 or 2 when MMPR came out.

Think about that..

[Gold Samurai]

I think the real truth is that the toyline will continue but the show is over.

[PyroChamber]

Well, if this is the last season then I think they need to start dishing out some MMPR DVDs. None of that "best of" crap, or is Disney just too petty to do it?

[CBG]

Disney won't pay the money.

[Dark Helmet]

If anything I can see Power Rangers going animated. I doubt Disney will completely abandon Power Rangers

[CBG]

That point has been brought up before prior.

Knowing Disney, they'd probably release one or two seasons and then stop.:csad:

Wasn't the first season like 50 episodes?
I just looked it up. It's actually 60. Season 2 had 52. Season 3 had 43.

[PyroChamber]

I just looked it up. It's actually 60. Season 2 had 52. Season 3 had 43.That's a lot of episodes for one season.

[Darthkush]

so did they pick that next fan choice power ranger yet? I voted for the mmpr Pink Ranger.

[Man of Tomorrow]

Wow. Today's RPM was *****ing awesome. I love when human characters actually die on the show.

It's definitely starting to rival Timeforce as my fave series.

It's already owning Dino Thunder bigtime.

[CBG]

But will they come back?

[Man of Tomorrow]

Marcus Truman?

I think he's gone for good, unless Vengix rebuilts his body as a machine in "Brother's Keeper"

But if he didnt eject, there's no way he could survived that.

Plus the episode sets in motion Scott stepping into his brother's shoes finally; it would be anticlimactic to bring him back unless it's done really well.

[Kevin D. Comicboy]

Good Episode. Still not a fan of Doc K, though.

[PyroChamber]

Good Episode. Still not a fan of Doc K, though.Me neither, it was better when you didn't know what she looked like. Now, she just seems like some bitter little girl.

As for me I can still watch Power Rangers Today and still be entertained by it, It was my favourite TV Show as a kid and its one of my favourite shows today.

Long Live the POWER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lou2099]

it was better when you didn't know what she looked like.They did tip the hat on K way too early. Now, she just seems like some bitter little girl.but I think it kind of works. They are in the middle of an apocalypse of sorts.

LOL, was that made from scratch or was that just taken from existing Sentai footage?

[Nathan]

I think that's made from scratch. The american rangers always have those, what do you call it, latches I think, on their helmets.

[Gold Samurai]

I think that's made from scratch. The american rangers always have those, what do you call it, latches I think, on their helmets.

There are two types of helmet for both sentai and PR's

The helmets with latches are the "stunt helmets" they can get nicks and scratches etc.

The "hero helmets" have no latches and they're mostly used for close ups and all the stuff that doesn't require them to be beaten up.


The same principal goes for "stunt car" and "hero car". Stunt cars do the brutal stuff while the hero car looks nice.

[Kevin D. Comicboy]

Episode 9. Flynn in a kilt. That alone makes this the best PR season ever. And Dr. K was pretty cool in her "fight" scene with T7.

[Man of Tomorrow]

Ranger Yellow has been pretty weak.

The first 7 eps were solid.

Hopefully Blue will be better.

Dig my avvy! :woot: Everyone else get one.


Question; in the rearly years when the Rangers still had the Morphers, and when they upgraded from the Dinozord to the Thunderzords, Ninja and so on...why the hell didn't they call out their new animal when morphing?

Example; Red Ranger's "Tyrannosaurus!" call should have turned into "Red Dragon!" and whatnot. Also, why did Tommy have to say "Zord" when he morphed? Why "Dragonzord!" and "Tigerzord!"..and not just Dragon or White Tiger?

[Man of Tomorrow]

I"m scottish!!!!

[mr. peasant]

Greatest moment of awesome!! RPM is really lampshading the bizarre phenomena that occur in Power Rangers:

ANNqA7A7XNI

[Kevin D. Comicboy]

No, Ranger blue was a good episode. The first few minutes alone with the meeting had me dying. Oh god, Just when it's getting good. Well, Countdown to suckage begins now.

And move over Ziggy, Flynn is my fave ranger right now.

[Kevin D. Comicboy]

My god, this is all Dr. K's fault.

Maybe because 'dragon' is only 2 syllables, and it would sound funny? I don't know. But he does say 'White Tiger' in the movie though.

[CBG]

Well, they later changed it to "(colour) Ranger Power!"

[Man of Tomorrow]

Today's episode was brilliant.


I love how RPM and Vengix both originated from a govt defense think tank.


I'm certain Gem and Gemma will be totally different when they appear as Gold and Silver...and then we'll get their backstories.

[Kevin D. Comicboy]

OMG, Dillion kicked Flynn in the balls. He actually kicked him in the balls.

[DarkKnight245]

RPM has been a godsend of a season so far. I'm surprised with what Eddie Guzelian and Co. are able to get away with.

[lou2099]

OMG, Dillion kicked Flynn in the balls. He actually kicked him in the balls.That surprised the ever lovin crap out of me. That's one way to assure that kids won't imitate the Power Rangers anymore.

RPM has been a godsend of a season so far. I'm surprised with what Eddie Guzelian and Co. are able to get away with.I do hope it continues along those lines, but I beleive he was fired and the original Morphin producer is being brought in. Cross your fingers.

As of now, it's the best show no one is watching

[deathshead2]

Check this out: http://www.rangercrew.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10334Yeah I read about this on Toonzone. This is good news and bads news. Bad news first. This most likely does mean RPM is the last season with Disney just wanting to save money and selling this as new show to kids. The good news. Disney wouldn't go to all this trouble just to re-air it on tv. This means that bandia might be taking those Super Legends toys and making a whole new line of remakes of old figures to accompany the re-airing, and the best new season sets are going to be on the way.

Here's something pretty cool. Kamen Rider meets Power Rangers.

[Gold Samurai]

Yeah Kamen Rider Decade VS Samurai Sentai Shinkenger. Tonight's the conclusion of the team up

You can download the subbed Kamen Rider episode 24 from Nihon
http://tvnihon.com/

The episode was primarily on the Kamen Rider side while Shinkenger took the week off.

http://img16.imageshack.us/img16/7650/dcdvx8.jpg



Then Kamen Rider Decade enters the alternate universe of Kamen Rider Black RX. Kamen Rider Decade has been traveling through the 9 Kamen Rider worlds.
http://img14.imageshack.us/img14/7622/1247826993517.jpg

Kamen Rider Decade was scheduled to only have 30 episodes but they've extend it by 2 or 4 episodes


The next Kamen Rider! Kamen Rider W!
http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/2192/kamenriderw2.jpg

[deathshead2]

That Kamen Rider W looks pretty cool. Really like his costume.

Have you watched that Dragon Knight show on 4kids? I'm just waiting for the dvds(hopefully).

[Nathan]

I watched the first Episode. That Kamen Rider Knight tries too hard to be a badass.

[Fresh Prince]

Power Rangers? Let me explain...Power Rangers was a television program that debuted in 1993 and featured five to six teenagers who's destiny was to protect the world from aliens, demons, mutants, orgs (beings created through man's pollution), and cyborgs. Almost every year a new ranger replaces an old ranger or even a whole team is replaced with new suits and weapons though they most likely will meet in a team-up with the current team in the coming year.

After awhile show became dumb and lame.

[deathshead2]

I watched the first Episode. That Kamen Rider Knight tries too hard to be a badass.
I watched the first two episodes. Power Rangers has been known for having terrible acting and writing, Dragon Knight takes the cake. Also the direction on the American scenes are horrible. I can't believe this show comes from the same guys who did both Guyvers and one of my favorite episodes of Lost Galaxy.

[Gold Samurai]

I didn't find Ryuki all that interesting.

My first Kamen Rider series was Den-O then Kiva and now Decade.

[DCnightwing23]

Power Rangers is quickly going down hill. Disney is milking everything the series has since Saban left just for toys are what not. The stories are awful. Theres no continuation in the series' disney has brought out. And the actors are all New Zealand or British. And since when does everyone know who the power rangers real identities are?? Disney is ruining it. I wish they just gave reruns of the MMPR through PRIS.

You do realize that in Japan it's a different storyline every year.

[DCnightwing23]

Thats not how it was back then. MMPR lasted for about 3 or something seasons and then the story continued til PRIS. I dont get why Japan and the US do that now. Its stupid.

[Nathan]

Huh? In Japan it was always a new story with every new season. The new Zords that you saw in each new Season of MMPR belonged all to different Rangers.

http://img529.imageshack.us/img529/3563/69061497.jpg (http://img529.imageshack.us/i/69061497.jpg/)

The Ninjazord for example actually belonged to the Alien Rangers. Better known as Kagurangers.

[Gold Samurai]

Kakurangers :)

and the reason Toei repeats theme isn't because they're out of ideas but it's for kids that were too young for the dinosaur theme five years ago etc etc

It's fresh for them and has been keeping this franchise going for 34 years

[Nathan]

I'm glad they repeat themes. It gave us the Hurricangers, one of my favorite Sentai Seasons.

[Primal Slayer]

So is Disney airing MMPR on ToonDisney or Disney?

[LL2K2]

The current season of PR is only on ABC Kids. You may want to check your local listings to see if it's on (usually Saturdays at 12 or 12:30 p.m. EDT).

Also, here's the latest news regarding the 2010 season:

http://www.businesswire.com/portal/site/google/?ndmViewId=news_view&newsId=20091001006376&newsLang=en

(Posted on Power Rangers On-Air Central)

[deathshead2]

They're redoing the toy line. YES!

[The Sarge]

Anyone here seen Jetman? It was the sentai series that was on the air right before the one MMPR was based off.
I started checking out Power Rangers again recently for little to no reason, and ended up watching the Entire Jetman series- and it was friggen awesome. I haven't seen any other Japan Sentai mind you, but still, it was light years better than MMPR or RPM. The villains were the best part about it too. Gray was badass.

[louiebling$]

If anything I can see Power Rangers going animated. I doubt Disney will completely abandon Power Rangers
If Disney was smart they would let Miramax make a Serious MMPR's Reboot.

[hippie_hunter]

Why Miramax? Miramax is meant for independent and art-house films. A Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers reboot IMO should be an animated TV show.

[Fresh Prince]

I would like that instead of the cheesy and camp PR.

That would be cool, but I'd much rather see a big budget adaptaion ala Transformers{without the potty humor and Racist Robots}.

[louiebling$]

Why Miramax? Miramax is meant for independent and art-house films. A Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers reboot IMO should be an animated TV show.
I don't think Disney could make a serious PR film... Disney owns Miramax and could use them to outlet a Serious PR FILM... Because Disney would make it too campy.

Yup. They're re-launching MMPR in 2010.

[Nathan]

First time I heard about this. Can you tell me anything more specific? I tried to find some info, but nothing is very clear.

[Catman]

Disney got tired of trying with PR. Plus, they have Marvel now. So, they're just going back to MMPR with merchandise relaunch and airing the show Saturday mornings on ABC. So, they're going after the nostalgia crowd as opposed to children.

darn... I miss this show so much. I remember having all the tapes, and the original toy line. Fell off as a fan after the movie because zeo or neo or w/e was too weird...

[deathshead2]

I hope that is not it, it looks too whack...Thats not it, thats the megazord combined with the cycles. Bandai added to the toyline. The megazord will look like the orignal but will be a tad smaller and thinner. From what people said about the size of the recent RPM zords.

Lots of stuff.

Any word on DVD/Blu-Ray releases?

[deathshead2]

Any word on DVD/Blu-Ray releases?As of yet no.

It really can go either way.
-Dvd sales are in the crapper, and Power Ranger dvds have never sold well. Right not is highly doubtful. But...Disney releases at least 2 vols for each season. So were most likely going to get at least ten episodes.
-Im hoping for season sets, and shows that were popular back in the done very well on dvd. He-man, Gi:joe, Thundercats, Transformers, Batman, Superman, ect.

[Catman]

MMPR has too many episodes. We're talking 145 episodes. Disney sucks at releasing their own shows let alone one that isn't theirs and that long.
