Here's some info on the international box office:

@ERCboxoffice: POWER RANGERS popped off with a mediocre $18.7M internationally in 62 markets. MEX ($3M) BRZ ($2M) UK ($2M)

From Deadline:

While Power Rangers isn’t a jawdropping opening in the Transformers sense of the word, many rivals have acknowledged that it’s a good start for the series, considering that a majority of the pic’s $100M production cost was funded via Lionsgate’s foreign pre-sales and output deals. Financial sources estimate that the distributor has a 25% exposure including stateside P&A. Overseas, Power Rangers grossed $18.7M from 62 markets, but it has yet to hit some really big ones, such as its source material country of Japan (July 15), South Korea (April 20), and France, Italy and Spain next weekend.

The film currently holds a 7.2/10 on IMDB, that's pretty impressive.

*TigerClaw* · 03-26-2017, 03:07 PM

Power Rangers made 40.5 Million at the box office, how long til Lionsgate greenlights the sequel?

Probably not until the box office actually warrants a sequel

*Allio* · 03-26-2017, 04:20 PM

I know it probably won't air in Japan for a couple of months. They probably want the kamen rider spring movie to be done with before they put out power rangera

And keep the fights in the daytime for goodness sake.

Well... 2/4 I got. Kimberly was a cutie and the big fight took place in the daytime.

You're being incredibly pessimistic for virtually no reason. The movie is doing very well so far, especially in terms of critical reception.

You're being too sensitive. I said in an earlier post that I really wanted a sequel so I'm not hating on the movie. I'm just being realistic. Tiger Claw's post came off pretty ignorant to me assuming that a $40 mil opening weekend is enough to get a sequel announced immediately.

Kimberly in the cockpit with her visor off is my aesthetic. She looks so good.

Apparently the cast want "Tommy" to be played by a female. To keep the sides even. Not sure how I feel about that.

Spoiler:

*Allio* · 03-27-2017, 08:44 AM

Still can't get behind the suits presented, does not give have the same "oomph" presented in say the designs of Kamen Rider the first and Kikaider Reboot

Spoiler:

Personally I want Tommy male.

Why?

Rita is our female evil green ranger, and I love it (female villains are my ****) so I suppose in my way it would feel like it would be retreading on the past plot, making it to me as if the puppy trying to get on the porch with the big *itch

Now thinking about it, how would the proceed with the green ranger without retreading on the said Rita story.

I got the feeling Rita went farther and farther over to the dark side where as Tommy would just be brainwashed.

*Allio* · 03-27-2017, 09:10 AM

Sounds like a de-escalation to me

*Krutch* · 03-27-2017, 10:57 AM

If they go the female green ranger route my guess is they'll make her Trini's love interest.

I'd prefer Green though because I don't like change. Plus, they already called the character "Tommy Oliver" three times in the post-credits. Like, registered with the school under that name. So "Tommy" isn't even a nickname.

Honestly, I can't even think of a female name where "Tommy" is the nickname for. Unless it's Tommi?

*Allio* · 03-27-2017, 11:21 AM

Let's just cut the middle man out and just get rid of Tommy and make Rita our sixth.

Imagine a story where she has to cut away the curroption of green, and regain the white light she forsake all those years ago.

Imagine the psychological implication as tring to do good, but being locked up in a cage of sin that you created.

To help a fallen one to rise.

Could be one of the greatest tales, a most memorable stories.

Or it would be Power a Rangers: Equestria Girls

*ranger_scout* · 03-27-2017, 11:52 AM

Remember there was a moment in the trailer where Kimberly and Jason shared a kiss? Well, the director explained why it didn't make the final cut.

Featuring Darren, the drug abuse resistance education lion? I would guess some school? Some very lucky school?

Doug Walker of Channel Awesome reviewed the reboot. He actually kind of liked it.
