How is that not cool?! Go Go Holy Rangers!

Just saying that it wouldn't have translated that well to American audences if they did a straight translation.

Thank god Kalish is never gone touch another Ranger series.

The added special effects weren't necessary.

Kalyx triaD 02-12-2010 09:59 AM

Are they fucking serious? Those effects are borderline offensive.

Dark-Slicer Diago 02-12-2010 12:05 PM

They're in every episode I think, I only watched that one, not the others that are up.

Kalyx triaD 02-12-2010 12:15 PM

I wouldn't do it to myself. And by the way, for all the whiny bitches out there: THIS is the definition of raping one's childhood. Literally taking the old material and fucking with it. Not every time something gets a reboot or a sequel.

The Jayman 02-12-2010 01:27 PM

Meh. I got the original Power Rangers seasons 1-4 on dvd so i'm good

parkmania 02-12-2010 01:42 PM

Welcome to the MMPR version of Transformers Generation 2.

Shadow 02-12-2010 02:43 PM

parkmania basically beat me too it.

Dark-Slicer Diago 02-12-2010 02:48 PM

All I have have Power Rangers season 1-9(MMPR-TF) are Fox Kids rips, 10-13(WF-SPD) are Jetix/ABC Family rips.

Shadow 02-13-2010 03:03 AM

That'd be about right. Though half of Wild Force would be ripped from Fox Kids.

owenbrown 02-13-2010 03:18 AM

wow the reboot in 2010 is cheesy even by 1993's standards

owenbrown 02-13-2010 03:47 AM

I mean I wasn't a big fan back then but c'mon this is a slap in the face to anyone who is feeling nostalgic

thedamndest 02-13-2010 04:42 PM

I really hated Billy.

thedamndest 02-13-2010 04:53 PM

How did Rita Repulsa keep getting the wand back after she made the monster grow? Or was it a new wand every time? Also, did she have to strategically plan the monster's attack to coincide with the time of day and period of the month at which point she could throw the wand directly into Angel Grove from the moon?

Lock Jaw 02-13-2010 05:30 PM

A wizard did it.

Damn you and your logic, thed. DAMN YOU TO HELL!!

I will accept the wizard answer.

Shadow 02-14-2010 01:15 AM

A witch did it.

Rammsteinmad 02-14-2010 10:10 AM

Isn't it terribly irresponsible of Zordon to put the fate of the world in the hands of teenagers? Seriously, if I had to pick a team like that I'd want people like Brock Lesnar, Jason David Frank and John Cena.

Kalyx triaD 02-14-2010 10:12 AM

I think it was explained why kids were usually chosen in one of the seasons. Or maybe I'm mistaken, something about the power of youth or some shit. But there has been adult rangers and heroes.

Also, I swear to God I doubt a single teenager today (in the UK anyway) would be so goody goody to actually do something like this.

If today's teenagers got ranger powers, mecha and all, Lord help us all.

Rammsteinmad 02-14-2010 10:22 AM

New Power Ranger line-up:

Kalyx triaD 02-14-2010 10:42 AM

Their identities would be on Facebook and shit.

Shaggy 02-14-2010 01:38 PM

:eek:

Would be funny if he had a giant morpher on his back...or his dragonzord lol.

As far as the new episodes go.... I was actually excited when I heard about it because of the fact we might get official versions of the seasons released on DVD. After seeing that first episode I dont want it. Those comic book like animations are horrible and I cant believe that when it shows the zords it actually pops shit up like the way it did.

Kalyx triaD 02-14-2010 01:51 PM

It's disrespectful. Might as well ran with it and changed the music, redubbed monsters, all of that shit.

Rammsteinmad 02-14-2010 03:08 PM

Goldar sounded redubbed. I haven't watched PR in years though so I can't remember. But pretty sure he didn't sound at all like he did in that video.

Kalyx triaD 02-14-2010 03:12 PM

That's his original audio, it's just his earlier voice work sounded different from the S2/S3 stuff when the actor settled into his raspy-growl role.

LoDownM 02-14-2010 04:09 PM

I have the Green Ranger Saga all on VHS somewhere, wonder if they are worth anything. Got them for free by calling into the local Fox channel and being like caller 11 or something back in the day lol.

parkmania 05-13-2010 01:27 PM

New episodes of Power Rangers will air on Nickelodeon this fall, and Nicktoons will also begin airing some of the 700 older episodes, according to Variety. The revival, which will also include live touring events and feature films, is being launched by Saban Brands, a new company formed by Haim Saban. Saban Brands has re-acquired Power Rangers from Disney.



Saban developed Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, based on a Toei Japanese production, in the early 90s and had a great run on Fox Kids. Disney acquired the property with the channel (now ABC Family) in 2001, but apparently doesn’t see it as a great fit for its audience. At the time Disney purchased the brand, Power Rangers had already accounted for $5 billion in retail sales.

.44 Magdalene 05-13-2010 03:45 PM

New episodes?

Do we know based on which series yet? I can't imagine them doing Shinkenger or the angel... card game... bullshit.

parkmania 05-13-2010 06:24 PM

Once I show you this logo:

YES YES-

I mean...

The kids will love this. Good for them. :shifty:

.44 Magdalene 05-13-2010 07:24 PM

As long as the show keeps that beard it grew during RPM

Kalyx triaD 05-13-2010 10:24 PM

Yeah, I read plot summaries and that show is hardcore relatively speaking.

What's the difference? I haven't caught a single episode, because I didn't really care that much.
