Power Rangers - the appreciation and discussion thread

[Wildcat]

So the latest 2 parter aired today with the Silver ranger Orion.

He took down a space ship with a slingshot...a SLINGSHOT Thats the most hilarious thing Ive ever seen in Power Rangers. I know its meant to be chessy but what the heck?

Then we're supposed to believe he's from another planet that just happens to look exactly like earth and its people are exactly like humans? I thought they were gonna show them in some cheap alien make-up during the flashback.

It doesn't bother me that much its just funny. I don't remember other PR being so cheesy. I really liked the new dino zord. It looked just like an updated DinoThunder megazord.

The critically acclaimed avatar had them taking down an army of highly equipped space ships and **** with freaking ARROWS!

^ Oh...ok, Ive never seen Avatar but why are you even bringing that up? I was talking about Power Rangers.

KO-35 says hi.

The first half of the episode wasn't bad

then the monster attacked

Orion's personality doesn't match well on Gai's body language (same thing as Tommy as the White Ranger)

going by Andros' flashback, their clothing attire is most definitely not human esque unlike onion, so it gives him a pass


also if anyone wanted to watch the Dinosaur ranger 3 way team up, it is finally subbed

I don't know what KO-35 is.

So different clothes is all thats needed to represent you're not human? No thats just dumb. Unless they're disguised as humans but why would they be on their own planet and before the attack?

Like I said It doesn't really bother me I just find it really funny. I mean even PR needs a limit between cheesy and flat-out ridiculous.

I actually do agree, they most definitely needed something to at least say that Orion is an alien and not from a place that looks like earth...even in Doctor Who's weakest episodes they at least make the world the human like aliens come from actually alien

Same. I've bought seasons 1-12 so far. I hope SPD and Mystic Force are as good as people says they are.

I prefer the first movie but I like both movies.

That's not proof that there will be a new PR movie in case anyone is wondering. Although...

I loved power rangers as a kid. I'd be interested in seeing this reboot if it happens.

[chrisdude]

Check the press release. It's real. And my eyes are watering.

EDIT:
Same press release. But on the Saban site.

lol Jason David Frank seems bummed about this news. I think this is great news for the time being. I hope they get the right cast and focus on the green ranger story arc. Maybe JDF could even make a cameo.

Yeah. I kind of feel for him, but something that follows the old timeline was a serious long shot. They're probably rebooting from the origin story. And, as much as I loved the Green Ranger, that's second movie stuff, at least.

[ZariusTwo]

Perhaps they could adapt the Doomsday story out of sequence and have Lokar and Cyclopsis as the villians, then do Tommy for the second film and Lord Zedd for the third.

Same here. He's been pushing for this sort of stuff and it's finally happening, and he has no involvement. Hopefully Bat In The Sun can really do right by him. I've heard they've been planning a Green Ranger series, so hopefully he'll get that. But fair enough, that is great sequel material.

well...it could be...nice? but I am going to hold off until we get more info

also, Jason David Frank has already started sending his army to get him in the movie
