Power On
Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future
Earth 2147. The legacy of The Metal Wars, where man fought machine - and machines won.
Biodreads. Monstrous creations that hunt down human survivors and digitize them. Volcania. Center of the biodread empire. Stronghold and fortress of Lord Dread, feared ruler of this new order.
But from the fires of the Metal Wars arose a new breed of warrior. Born and trained to bring down Lord Dread and his biodread empire.
They were Soldiers of the Future. Mankind's last hope.
Their Leader, Captain Jonathan Power. Master of the incredible power suits, which transform each soldier into a one-man-attackforce. Major Matthew 'Hawk' Masterson, fighter in the sky. Lieutenant Michael 'Tank' Ellis, ground assault unit. Sergeant Robert 'Scout' Baker, espionage and communications. And Corporal Jennifer 'Pilot' Chase Tactical systems expert.
Together they form the most powerful fighting force in Earth's history. Their creed, to protect all life. Their promise, to end Lord Dread's rule. Their name, Captain Power and the Soldiers of the Future

I loved that show! It was one of the few kids' show that wasn't afraid to be dark. I could see it work with some retooling of the most cheesy and campy aspects.

I actually would like it if they picked up where the series left off since

Spoiler

Nothing got ultimately resolved. Pilot died to save everyone else and destroyed Power's base in the process. Dread is still in charge and all of the major events of the series don't really need anything more than a quick flashback to bring new fans up to speed. Meanwhile, older fans will appreciate the validation of what they previously saw and enjoy the continuation of the series

I would love a movie....as long as I was allowed to bring in a gun and shoot bad guys and stuff and keep score.

Forget about it! With all the noise those toy guns would make they're would be no way to hear the movie at all...even though I'm sure it would be one hell of a time!

This idea really need to be revisted...I loved this show.

Who would u cast for this movie?

 

[DOG LIPS]

Ha ha. I loved this show. t:

I think I still have the VHS that came with the toys, each had 2 episodes on them I believe. I need to find them. I think this would make a crazy movie, but a lot of the charm would be lost with today's CGI and wire-fu.

Sven Ole Thorsen....TANK.......yeehaaahhhhhhhh.
