To be honest the original wasn't the eye pleasing.

Its kinda like the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and there movie out fit the movie suit were way more bad ass

Honestly, the movie designs were nice, but I feel it misses the appeal of the rangers themselves

Sentai/Rangers = Spandex
Riders = Armor

It is what I feel that the Turbo movie did better than the first movie (actual spandex suits and the real megazord battle

True. But I didn't really get into the Rangers cuz of the Spandex. But that's just me. But im not the biggest Power Rangers fan. I tried to watch later versions when I was younger. But I just fell out of it IDK i just like the character and style of the Original Ranger.

Sad that Turbo didn't do better in the box office. Maybe we would se more power ranger movie done with bigger budgets. But I love Jason David Frank. He's a Great martial artist, Great with the fans, And has been trying to get a more adult version of the Green ranger movie off the ground, Which I think would be great.

Jdf is great. He was my hero growing up. He lives in my hometown now and a couple of friends have seen him around and say he's really friendly always excited to talk to fans. One of these days I gotta track him down and get him to sign something

I don't think that will really work to the theme of Power Rangers/Sentai (with it being a team thing rather than a single person -unless you are Daigo Sentai Kingranger, Or Power Rangers Nick Force

I mean this isn't Garo or something

fair enough, it could be worse...much worse




I mean, for JDF himself, he is okay...I just don't care for his hardcore fans that puts him on such a pedestal

I mean there is already a petition to get Tommy for the american version of Kyoryuger

True but they have one shots and single character storyline in the comics before. So i could work and thats not to say it wouldn't involve the other rangers.

HAAHAHA though from the glimpses seen of the "ranger" the uniform was pretty cool (with a low budget)

I mean Alot of fan of different Fandoms can be a little extreme People like seeing him as a ranger and as long as there are those people who want him on there I dont think he will deny them.

Haven really seen much after Turbo or space which ever was the later one. So I cant really say how he performs in his other roles. Other then Green White and Black(from space)

He was black in Dino Thunder

I remember, during a discussion for an adaptation of Garo, some people were "fangasming" over the idea of JDF being in the show as the "White Tiger Knight"
Spoiler:


though, I did hear he did want to try out for the adapation for Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, but Adness was reluctant of using Power Rangers actors - they didn't want to seem like they were trying to ride their wave



also...Power Rangers comics...kind of suck

Wow that Pretty bad ass.

I could see why they may be apprehensive. But I bet he would rock the character.

Meh. Comic lines tend to go both way good and bad through out their release. I'm sure there have been good ones?? but it was just comparison to how they could to a one off character run.

Though I've heard the new Comic book like it supposed to be good. people are pretty excited.

I don't like the designs because they're horrendous. The lips look like they've had excessive plastic surgery, and I'm really not into the whole clothes thing either. If they have to have disguises, why not just use trench coats or something?

The lips and facial features are because there using Mocap and facial recognition to use for there characters. so they to there respective faces and morphed them into a mutated turtle face.

I meant the resemblance is uncanny.

Donnie's the only one that looks decent.

But then, of course, nerd glasses.

Donnie got the best beak/snout of them all, at least from that angle we see his picture off. The philtrum isn't as deep compared to the others and his lips are a loot more subdued.

Leo is a not-so-close second, his lips are way too big, the philtrum is like a canyon and his eyes just looks too small and beady. The snout itself is fine, like a poor mans version of the OotS snout design.
