I literally watched that right before I left for work. I admit I was a little off put by the Power Rangers using so much violence, but I did like it. It was pretty interesting to me. I kind of hope the guy goes ahead and makes it into a full fan film.

Looks like Saban, The makers of the original Power Rangers, Are trying to shutdown this fanfilm.

The ending didn't make any sense but it was cool.

This is what I posted on my other forum...

Yeah, I saw it last night off of Yahoo and was thinking about posting it. I honestly was not sure what was going on at first. While it focuses on the original 6 Van Derberk (sp?) is playing the replacement red ranger as a government agent and Kimberly has dark brown hair not blonde so I assumed it was her replacement. She was married to Jason? That did not make sense either. Okay, I am nitpicking. The segment with the Black Ranger in the flashback was awesome. Also, why did Rocky want Tommy anyway? It left 6 dead rangers necessary or not. Where have I seen that guy who put together the short film? Still it was interesting and makes one think what it would be like if other actors played the original six characters as an idea of what to expect in next years Mighty Morphin film. Atleast there Rita won't get the best of them in the upcoming film(though I prefer Zedd).

Good thing I already saved it to my hard drive then.

No input of your own on the subject? Or is TigerClaw in fact just a news bot?

I didn't watch the movie, But I did watch an IGN breakdown of the fanfilm. I remember watching Power Rangers, but don't remember much about it, and this video shows all the references.

So apparently JDF doesn't approve.

Okay, I like JDF, but honestly, who gives a f*ck if he approves or not. This isn't a shot at you. But just, foreal. So what. Also, I can't access the article from this computer, but why is Saban wanting to shut it down? Dc doesn't shut down all those fan made Batman (some of them are damn good) or other character fan films.

Who cares what JDF thinks he is an ego driven asshole who thinks Power Rangers is all him.

Its over Copyright Infringement, Saban owns the IP, and they and Lionsgate are planning a big budget reboot the franchise.

So what though. It's a fan film that has nothing to do with the one they plan on making, and probably slaughtering. Let the guy make his non profit fan film.

It's pretty cool. Love the helmet stuff and the zords. I would like a more mature PR but not quite this violent.

I'm all for more adult/grim versions of things but this level seems kinda out of place for this franchise.

I do not agree with the legal side though. If it's totally free and fan made they should let it be.
