I really hope it doesn't turn into a real mess. I love MMPR and would really like to see them do it justice.

psychturtle · 08-13-2014, 06:03 PM

Nice. They better start casting soon. Gonna be 2016 before you know it. I just watched a few episodes of season 1 last night. LOL'd when I saw the episode with the rappin' pumpkin haha

*Allio* · 08-13-2014, 06:25 PM

I am really not expecting much from this

*pennydreadful* · 08-13-2014, 07:35 PM

Hopefully they'll do a good job with it, but I guess we'll have to wait and see!

*CyberCubed* · 08-13-2014, 08:10 PM

Power Rangers is still a thing in the U.S.? All the original fans are now in their 20's and I doubt new younger kids get into it as much anymore.

*turtlefanforever* · 08-13-2014, 08:42 PM

It's about a bigger platform for the Green ranger to call out CM Punk. WHy is CM punk so afraid to fight him, man?!

*Brodie* · 08-13-2014, 08:44 PM

Yeah, Power Rangers is still a thing. Its an anniversary year/season, so its still popular. They brought back a bunch of older rangers from pervious seasons for a big battle episode.

Power Rangers has gotten a bit of a resurgence since Samurai, but substantially so with Megaforce/Super Megaforce.

This will probably be trying for the money of those 20-something people who remember it from their childhood.

zodiac brave · 08-13-2014, 08:58 PM

im 30 and im a fan.

it was the natural progression for me when the initial turtlemania died down.

im looking forward to it. robeto orci is involved and ive generally loved anything he's worked on, plus they said theyre going the star trek route and making it so the original show continuity isn't erased or forgotten.

and the way jason david frank is championing the franchise, id be surprised if he DIDNT have at least a cameo and im a big fan of his!

Probably because Punk doesn't want to fight some washed up old guy.

Anyways. Looking forward to it.

To be fair he is undefeated as a pro and ammy

*Wildcat* · 08-13-2014, 10:03 PM

Cool. I wonder if it'll tie in all the shows or just the original. Not a Megaforce thing I just mean acknowledge all of them.

Zords should look awesome.

*Roseangelo* · 08-13-2014, 10:03 PM

Willing to bet this ends up a better movie than the TMNT sequel.

He's fought nothing but cans and didn't even look particularly impressive against them. He's nothing but a publicity stunt in MMA.

That's not really saying much though.

psychturtle · 08-13-2014, 11:30 PM

Man, goldar will be awesome. The zords....man. I see myself buying some collectibles in 2016! Hope the suits look good. Still think they get some known actors/actresses to play the rangers. They should shuffle up the races though so the black ranger isn't...African American...etc.

Would be cool to see it all begin again like the star trek series did. I'm pumped unless liebesman directs.

Not to jump on the attack-CyberCubed bandwagon, but I figured that if anybody was going to make a statement like that, it would be you.

There are "original fans" who are also in their 30s (like myself), and even 40s. Maybe even older. Kids today also still watch, and the toys are being bought. Of course it's still airing. I'll admit that I'm not expecting this to be a huge success myself, however.

That was basically me. My interest in TMNT started to dwindle in late 1991 really. I saw the second movie but after that, I didn't really make it a point to catch the episodes. Once Power Rangers started, I put TMNT behind me a year after, but I got back into TMNT in 2003, thanks to the 4Kids series.

Considering most of your posts in the traditional PR thread are about Tokusatsu bollocks nobody here is interested in, I'm not surprised you'd say that. You've outgrown PR.

*Netkeeper* · 08-14-2014, 05:57 AM

So... this is Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers? Not any of the ones that came after?
