I was gonna guess the picture was taken way early in PR history, before they got the hang of producing their own in-costume content. But that Green Ranger helmet is the weird looking one they used in Dino Thunder.

/ssg/ popping in

The poses they do in original MMPR stuff are so fucking bad. Like they're trying really hard to emulate some form of martial arts stances thanks to the ninja craze of the 80's and early 90's.

I also never notice the little things on the back of Red's helmet in Sentai footage but I always spot them in PR. They look so odd.

Then there's other suit differences like the neck area. In Sentai, its skin tight, but in PR, its always baggy and rumpled. Looks odd to me again.
>>
>>14086070
>I also never notice the little things on the back of Red's helmet in Sentai footage but I always spot them in PR. They look so odd.

That's because Sentai hides them better. They're just clasps used for stunt helmets.
>>
>>14086070
>I also never notice the little things on the back of Red's helmet in Sentai footage but I always spot them in PR. They look so odd.
I was actually disappointed that Gokaiger seemed to mostly use stunt helmets for the Gokaichanges. I guess it's necessary due to the number of suits, but it was the first time I noticed the claps in Sentai without looking for them.
>>
>>14085945
That's actually a new photo from the last few years. While the show was taking the usual large batches of photos of the Megaforce suits for press use, merch etc, they also did a large shoot of the MMPR suits. They were taken by the team in the NZ studio.

So I have a little brother interested in Power Rangers, I figured I show him some of MMPR since it's what I grew up with.

I know one of you autistic faggots has an essential episode guide. I'm already planning on watching the first episode, green ranger arc, and introduction of the white ranger at the very least.
Any other good/plot relevant episodes to watch with the little guy? Thanks in advance.
>>
>>14090771
>Wants to get someone into an episodic show
>by showing him the episodes that alter the status quo.

Anyways the episodes that do so are the first, the second(they get the weapons), green with evil(obviously), gung ho(titanus is introduced), whichever episode titanus joins the team, the green candle, doomsday and return from an old friend.

As for other memorable episodes in S1: the island of illusions and an oyster stew. Also, that one where Billy and Kimberly switch minds.

In S2 its the mutiny, green no more,white light, the power transfer and the wedding.

Most of S3 is plot relevant, biggest obvious exception would be the Masked Rider introduction.

I'm new to Power Rangers and Super Sentai in general.

I've been plowing through Power Rangers and now I'm at Turbo. I guess I'm supposed to see the movie before continuing on with the series, but do I really have to see it or should I just read a synopsis and move on? Like am I missing good shit by skipping out on the movie?
>>
>>14098258
Well, the movie is canon to series, so unless you're okay with missing some major plot points (i.e. Rocky's Injury and Replacement) then you'd have to watch it. But no, you're not missing anything good by skipping it.
>>
>>14098278
Alright then. I'll just read a synopsis instead. It's not on Netflix and I don't feel like pirating it.
>>
>>14098005
I actually hope they dont do a 25 anniversary. Super Megaforce is too recent(aside from it being shit), there would only be one team(DC) between it and Ninja Steel.

If they do a special it might be better, but they seem like dicks to past actors so it probably will be shit. There also isnt many usable things in sentai footage anyways. The best would be the Ninninger episode where Ninjared and Hurricanered show up and Aurico isnt exactly one of the most liked rangers (neither Shane) and they would have to explain why the sixth isnt there.

It would be cool to adapt Kyoryuger-Zyuranger-Abaranger team up but Dino Charge wont be the active team then.

Divatox has the stronger chin. I'd compare her to Jeri Ryan, especially during her peak-hotness years when she was on Star Trek: Voyager.
And here's a weird coincidence: Seven of Nine's first two appearances on Voyager were in "Scorpion", a two-part episode that served as the third season's finale and the fourth's premiere.
Scorpion part 1 aired in May 1997. Scorpion part 2 aired in September 1997.
All of Turbo aired from April 1997 to November 1997.

This shit still blows my mind. Because it's true, but not exactly right.

Disney only got the rights because acquiring Fox Family was a package deal with all of Saban's properties. And they could have just cancelled it outright after Wild Force, but they kept it going for seven years afterwards before closing up shop. Disney really put in some work to keep the series afloat, even if it ultimately waned over time.

I mean, for every A-Squad and Omega Ranger situation, we had Disney spending their Battlizer Budget on the Spirit Rangers.

Just something to keep in mind.

I just picked up PR after a forever but man is the original Mighty Morphin some rough editing. Not even getting into the obviously different camera/film quality between the original and American footage, but the American editing is an absolute mess of jumping around from place to place and plot point to plot point like it was written by a schizophrenic. Going through in order they don't seem to get their act together till say Turbo.

Boy, don't you dare talk shit about the In Space line. Everything from IS to RPM, and even the figures from Samurai to Dino Charge have been solid. MMPR2010 were the only awkward line.

And this is purely from an articulation/play value point. That's not even getting into the sculpts. I don't know why they have to be super muscular either, but they're not that terrible.

Agree, for all the shit the PR toys get, they are at least toys you can play with, unlike sofubis.

The Dekaranger 10 years after movie used sort of a similar concept, but obviously that was after SPD, and they used the SWAT mode suits, not different suits.

DO you ever think there will a PR episode that talks about the possible existence of teams that we don't see?

>>14119011
Everything was fair game as soon as the Alien Rangers appeared, the mighty morphin were nothing special, not even the first on Earth since there were the previous samurai rangers.

Also, some government organizations and a random friend of RJ could develop ranger powers, and there are other SPD branches that may have their teams.

And there's also, you know, the NEW POWERS.

It's very likely there may be tons of other teams in-universe that arent on-screen.
>>
>>14119090

After checking numerous sites for rankings, it seems that Time Force, RPM, Jungle Fury, Zeo, Dino Thunder, Dino Charge, MMPR1, and Ninja Storm are all top 5ish material.

Literally my reactions to all news about the Power Rangers movie

I'm just not surprised that it fucking sucks because it was always going to fucking suck.

>>14134998
OK, now I know that Rangers are either really redone or practically the same. There's no other reason to reveal Repulsa first.

Let's be honest here, most people will take not-so-faithful adaption, but a good movie over really faithful adaption, but terrible movie.

Such as?

Burton's Batman. It's a terrible Batman movie, but a good movie overall.

>>
>>14135085
I get that but it still looks stupid. Especially since they are going for a darker and grittier movie like that shit bootleg movie.

Instead of a menacing character looking character, we have this green and gold looking shit that looks more like one of the bad guys that gets sent down to Earth all so they can tease the Dragon Ranger.
>>
>>14133067
I wrote up this idea but in reality it would only work on Adult Swim which will never happen with Saban's contract with Nick and also Saban's lack of interest in die hard fans of the show.

So I gave up on trying to make my idea work.

Pretty much you do the same thing with different nerds types that love Power Rangers and you include a bunch of behind the scenes speculations and theories that are popular amount the fanbase, maybe throw in some of real behind the scenes sort of stuff.

The villains would have to be groups of people that never liked or saw the point of Power Rangers, or even fans of Power Rangers who keep wanting it to be a darker grittier show like the Hexagon plan back when they were making Ninja Storm.

Considering the edgelords are the enemies, who would those be? There has to be at least a girl(2 going off by akibaranger).

Why does Rita look like Tarkheena?
>>
>>14134998
Oh look, another movie has the nerve to try and make Elizabeth Banks look ugly. What's the world come to.

At that point, why even retain the original name? Just create a completely different set of characters, and preferably not rely on Zyuranger imagery at all! You'd probably actually be better off if you do th--- oh wait, the entire premise rides on appealing to nostalgia-hungry manchildren. Well just fucking kill me then.

She kinda looks like some newer female Sentai villains, like Insarn, Nariya or Metal Alice. I'd accept that.
>>
>>14135781
Well there would be the MMPR only fans, the obsessive nerds who read way to much into the series, and the fans that keep flipflopping between watching and not.

So the blue ranger would be the MMPR only fan since in the sentai footage she's the one that knows the least. The red ranger and yellow ranger could be either one of the other types.
>>
>>14135781
Since there are 2 seasons then they could use the 2 types of bad guys. Or maybe use the edge lords as an original season.

How about season 1 is sentaifags and/or haters. Season 2 edgelords. I still like the idea of there being an original season just because of how the MMPR seasons had original footage in it and that season having edgelords being the villains, but it's also unrealistic to except a season of original stuff.

Why are any of you complaining about the way Elizabeth Banks looks as Rita or the new MMPR movie? It's for kids not ass-pained manchildren on a Nigerian knitting board to bitch about.

Because it's an MMPR adaptation, so it has to be related to MMPR. It's also made to make the brand popular again. No point in making it MMPR related at all if they arent aiming at people who watched MMPR, even if nostalgiafags only.

>This autism from weab purists and Rangerfags is nauseating.
Well, some people dont like to be scammed, so if they are offering you a MMPR movie then it better be an MMPR movie.

>>14138892
>I've been disappointed enough with Hollywood fucking up Batman vs Superman and other comic adaptations that I don't care about MMPR.
So it's okay to care about this brand for kids being well adapted, but not about this other brand for kids being well adapted?

Reading comprehension dipshit. I'm pissed off at how half-assed Hollywood's been doing cape adaptations that the new MMPR flick isn't any surprise to me.

Where the fuck does Hollywood get with this belief that they can adapt Japanese fiction when they can't even properly adapt a US one? Disney's been doing well because it actually allows Marvel to oversee it, but WB's fucked up big time with DC barring the Nolan Batman.

>>14140326

>It's okay, but frankly just because it's mildly entertaining doesn't make up for the earlier shit of NuSaban.

There's only been three series' made so far in the Neo-Saban era, with the third (Dino Charge) still running. And judging by the reception that Dino Charge been getting, it seems like there is some improvement being made from the last two (Samurai/Super Samurai and Megaforce/Super Megaforce) I don't think we should throw in the towel just yet. With a franchise like Power Rangers, there is bound to be some duds among the good. Think of SNL. There's been plenty of great or good sketches and cast members while also a lot of mediocre or bad ones. And let's not act like there hasn't been some bad Power Ranger series's in the past, Turbo and Operation Overdrive being examples that people often bring up.
>>
>>14142761
Literally on the faq
>>
>>14142890
It's not Turbo's fault that it was shitty. The Nip source material was just too much of a clusterfuck to adapt.

OO gets a lot of flak and I disliked a lot of it, but it doesn't deserve the amount of hate it gets.

At least under Disney, the worst of their seasons had better work involved than Neo-Saban. Dino Charge is cool but let's not pretend it's this stunning piece of work that needs to be ball-licked.

I've watched PR from 1999 to 2009 and I can honestly say that the franchise needs to die off. /co/ and /tv/ are speculating that the influx of so much comic movies nowadays is gonna eventually over-satuate and burn out. PR is hardly relevant to contemporary kids as much as 90's ones. No surprise Saban wants an MMPR movie so that he can reap up all that manchildren nostalgia as well as attract new blood.
>>
>>14143825
http://www.angelfire.com/scifi/prstuff/ratings.html
It's not as irrelevant as you're making it out to be.
Neo-Saban seasons still get 1-3 million views per new episode and sell tens of millions in merch a year.
Sure, it's nowhere near MMPR's peak of 4-6 million views and $1 billion sales in 1995, but nothing these days really does.
MMPR aired on broadcast TV while everything Disney-era and beyond aired on cable. And families are starting to cut cable and move to streaming services, so cable ratings for kids shows are naturally going to drop anyway, yet Power Rangers is still somehow able to get decent viewership. Streaming is actually even getting kids interested in older seasons since they're more readily available to watch now.
Power Rangers is in it for the long run.

>There's an acceptable amount of deviation an adaptation can go from the original. Rita's suit goes way past that.

So you're just going to say the movie sucks based solely on Rita's design? Are you fucking serious? How stupid or autistic are you? Goddamit the design, while drastically different from the original, actually makes a bit of sense when you think about it. Rita is wearing green and gold. Who else wore green and gold? The Green Ranger, who in the original series was created by Rita. The direction they're probably going with is that the Green Ranger will be created in Rita's image. His colors are green and gold because Rita's colors are green and gold.
>>
>>14144677
Its kind of dumb to throw the movie under the bus based on 1 design, a pretty nice design at that. Sure, it doesn't look like Rita, but there's still the likely chance that it'll still be Rita in spirit.

>>
>>14146942

The whole reason we get all these goofy designs like Cubes and huge combined robots with 10+ components is because Bandai believes that playability trumps design, at least for a toyline for children. The Zord builder stuff is basically the same, just going from a different direction.

Yes, because it gives closure to the unfinished business of previous seasons, I mean, take Rita, for example, she was never beaten for good until that point.
