They tend to get more talky as the seasons go on, but I always thought it sounded more natural.

Quick question frome someone who hasn't gotten around to watch Dino Charge yet: how much of the footage is re-used from Kyoryuger? I remember watching the first DC episode and it had original footage.
>>
>>13785682
It's enough new footage that you'll notice that the US blue suit is too bright, the gold suit is piss tan, and the gray suit sometimes looks like it's got blue arms.

>>13785682
Fights are mostly from Kyoryuger, but they are well edited within the show for the most part,and dont take the entire episode as in super megaforce, they are well distributed.
The megazord fights are all sentai footage as usual, but there's some CGI original scenes that, aside from the fact that its kids tv show CGI, its well integrated and helps making you feel the human characters and the zords are on the same place.
There also are many out of suit fights (not an enormous amount, but many).


That said, as >>13785969 said the suit differences can get notorious in those exact three cases, although for the other 4 main ranger suits they are fine, not as clashing as Megaforce/Goseiger suits.
>>
>>13785456
It was because they think kids are retarded and constantly need to be reminded which ranger is which. It's also why they constantly said each others name

>>
>>13788397
For Zyuranger they edited together one episode from like, 5-6 episodes I think. Supposedly, the writers for MMPR would watch Zyu without the sound on and write episodes around the footage.

Has anyone ever actually timed how much Sentai footage gets used per episode? I know it'd vary from season to season (Samurai/MF/SMF would use way more than say RPM, for example), but it'd be a use measure for when the new Sentai comes out, and people inevitably say "This season is unadaptable"
>>
>>13790895
There is a website floating around with an extremely comprehensive comparison of which shots are used and stuff for each episode right down to the duration, which Sentai episode it's from, if the shot's reused, etc.

Unfortunately, the name escapes me, and I can't for the life of me find it from googling for 20 minutes. It might be gone, but I'm not certain.

Found it. It only goes up to Ninja Storm, so it doesn't really take into account how Disney seasons tend to use it less, especially RPM (though that show went over budget and fired its first executive producer).

Honestly, when people reason Go-Busters not being adapted with the notion that it's just unadaptable because of Enter/Escape being prominently featured in fight footage, I can't help but scoff in my head. Maybe under a Tzachor tenure, but Lynn surely would have made it work. Go-Busters simply wasn't adapted because of merchandising interests.

I was wondering something that concerns the new comic book, do any of the mmpr rangers have siblings? I think has Zack has a brother or a cousin they introduced in season 2, and we know about there parents. But for the rest, we don't really know much about the rangers family hirstoies. Makes me wonder if they are allowed to add family members, or if Saban put stuff like that on a you can't write about this list.
>>
>>13803901
Tommy had the whole story arc about founding out he is a native american. So, his family is probably isn't going to be touched on.
>>
>>13803901
I know Tommy does
>>
>>13803901
MMPR S3 was partially about Kimberly's family.

Watching RPM for the first time. Damn no wonder this show went overbudget. Like 80% of these morphed fights are original footage.

There's a preview on PR's facebook that reveals something about Heckyll and Snide.
Can't post it on 4chan. Site tells me it's spam.

>I think has Zack has a brother or a cousin they introduced in season 2

It was a cousin. Jason also had a cousin that showed up for an episode in season one.

>>13803929
I think at the most they'll touch on the fact that he's adopted, maybe with a bit of foreshadowing. Who knows.
>>

I think this one is obvious.
>>
>>13810496
>>13810741
They're all Saban seasons.
>>
>>13810741
Yeah, I take back what I said about MMPR after seeing Tommy. Regardless, it's less the seasons they went with and more the specific rangers. MMPR Green and Red Space make sense in their own ways, but Gold Zeo, Silver Megaforce, and Pink Dino Charge?
>>
Medium is just too easy for me. I haven't lost one character yet
>>
>>13810940
Gold Zeo is one of the most popular sixths after Tommy, maybe along with Titanium or Quantum.
Silver Megaforce is a recent sixth(sixths are cooler to most people, not to me though),
DC Pink is odd, but they probably wanted to put a girl. At least it was the best neo-saban girl.
>>
So in Ninninger they did this thing that I hope they use in Ninja Steel where they have 3 red rangers. Now in the sentai they do it because they are related and they just got their power back but I hope they figure out how to do it in Ninja Steel without the blood relation.

Unless it's like, himself from the future or something. I just never liked the idea of rangers being related and that's why they are rangers. Gem and Gemma being exceptions since they just work so well together but Saban could never pull that off, or would even be willing to.
>>
>>13812665
Depending on the nature of the show, they could be previous winners of the intergalactic game show or something. It doesn't seem like the Rangers are contestants though.
>>
>>13812665
could still leave the family bit
at least with red
>>
>>13812665
They kept family relations in the two famiy sentai they used, even if not all the team, so maybe they do the same.

That said, the other two Akaninger dont appear on much fighting footage so there's not much of a point. They did female shinken red though.
>>
>>13812665
>>13813202
>>13813595
It's doubtful that they would because Saban gets in trouble if they don't make the Power Rangers inclusive of all ethnicities. If you have one family, you probably have one ethnicity.
>>
>>13813634
Not really, I'm white and one of my cousins is black
>>
>>13812665

I haven't seen Ninninger, but I think I heard those other 2 red rangers (the Father and Grandfather of the regular Red) only appeared as rangers towards the end of the show? If so, I'd quite like it if they did a time travel thing with them, being different versions of Red from the future, back to warn them about some impending doom.
>>
>>13813634
That's what I meant, both Lightspeed Rescue and Mystic Force had related rangers, even though they werent the whole team. So only the other two red should share the same ethnicity with the main red. The other four can be black, chinese or whatever.

> If you have one family, you probably have one ethnicity.
Nick is not the same ethnicity as both of his parents. Then again, his parents arent fully human so they may work different.

I like how we got another recycled monster suit this episode. This time another one from R.P.M.

That's way more effort than they're willing to do. It's the same reason they didn't adopt GoBusters.

I'm sad we won't see this sexy machine.
>>
>>13823490
That's not the reason GoBus wasn't adapted. It's because of Enter and Escape. They couldn't use footage with them. And Enter and Escape are the only generals Vaglass had. We had human villains being replaced in the past, but there always were other generals. Even RPM relied on all of generals' costumes. So did Time Force, In Space and many others.
Basically, we would probably get ToQGer if Ninninger villains were all actual people.

What would happen if a PR series down the line had a female leader? Technically it hasn't been done before, I'm not counting pic and jaydens sister, she would need to start and end the series being team leader. Would it work? Could a woman be a well done leader without them being all
>GIRLS CAN DO IT TOOOOOO
Or would they turn it into some sorta feminist propaganda bullshit?
>>
>>13824652
It could be done well. All ideas can be well-executed.
That said, I'm on the fence. On the one-hand, either they would turn it into girl-power propaganda, or they wouldn't and FemRed would be just like any other Red but people who aren't kids and who also don't post on Maori ta moko imageboards would pick up on it, and treat it as girl-power propaganda.
What would most likely happen is the first season of CBS' Supergirl: first few episodes are full-force girl-power everyone's-sexist-for-no-established-reason propaganda, but once they've taken the bait, CBS/Saban sweeps the rug out from under them and immediately transforms it into a proper superhero show.
>>
>>13824652
>What would happen if a PR series down the line had a female leader?
That'd require a female red in the sentai or else people would complain about the gender changes like they still do about a show that's literally more than 20 years old. And I dont see a female-lead sentai with Bandai's business model.

That said, if done well, it might be good, as with anything.

>Or would they turn it into some sorta feminist propaganda bullshit?
Very likely. Then again, Power Rangers has always been "sjw done right" but of course, no one cares about at because "muh zordon is racist" jokes.

>>13824719

did that really happen? Then supergirl might be worth checking out. Reminds me of how sense8 was full sjw the first 2 episodes then calmed down in the rest of the season(it was still bad though).
>>
>>13824652

Yes, obviously it could work. But Japan will never go for it.

Technically, we've had female leaders twice before in PR

>Delphine - Alien Rangers

Unfortunately, the Alien Rangers were shitty, and I don't really remember Delphine doing anything in particular. Cestro did more than her, really.

>Jen - Time Force

For years, I assumed that Pink being the leader was actually just an American addition, because outside of the first couple of episodes, all the sentai footage would seem to suggest that Red is the leader. But, apparently Pink was the leader in both the Sentai and PR (Because Time Force is a fairly close adaptation of Timeranger). So, Jen was technically the leader, but most of the footage has Wes front and center, for some reason.
>>
>>13824821
NinjaWhite was also the leader in Kakuranger, but its a plot formality, that's why you dont often see that in the fighting formations.

In Megaranger the black was also, in theory, the leader (that's why Carlos had the best stats and held the team weapon, fuck the people who complained about Zack), in Gekiranger the leader was the yellow, also technically(none of this appears in JF) and the Goseigers were stated to have no leader(which was ignored in Megaforce).

> the Alien Rangers were shitty
There's not much you can do with just 10 episodes that were just a setup for the next team. I'll take them before the megaforce rangers any day.
>>
>>13824747
>did that really happen? Then supergirl might be worth checking out. Reminds me of how sense8 was full sjw the first 2 episodes then calmed down in the rest of the season(it was still bad though).
I wouldn't say that makes it good, but it certainly decided to actually be a show about superheroes.
Sort of like how Arrow suddenly decided to be a superhero show when Flash premiered.
>>

>I'll take them before the megaforce rangers any day.

What's even the point of saying that? Literally no-one disagrees on the point of MF/SMF being the absolute low-point of the show, below even Operation Overdrive.

>>13826251
She was officially the leader of the future team, but after a few episodes Wes is clearly taking the actual leadership of the group. IIRC, in the episode where they get bikes Wes is clearly the leader and remains so from then on.

I was thinking about female Reds thanks to all those people complaining about lack of Rey merchandise at Disney stores, and I thought "Given that and all the Katniss Everdeen shit that's been pushed lately, maybe Saban could take advantage of that craving." I'm sure someone behind the scenes is actually thinking about that
>>
>>13826361
>>13826371
They also use Arabic numbers and Roman numerals.
I don't understand where Greek factors into this.
>>13826374
The problem is that most of the people who would buy PR merch or who would even watch the show are not the people who like Hunger Games or would complain about a lack of Rey merch because of sexism.
PR's demo is elementary school, mostly guys with some girls.
Hunger Games' demo is middle to high school, mostly girls with some guys.
And I've honestly never even noticed actual Star Wars toys. I don't even remember any commercials for them when the prequels came out. They certainly aren't toyetic enough to be as popular as PR, and they always seem to look like hot garbage, that Kylo Ren one is awful. And Hunger Games doesn't have toys at all, because they aren't appealing to people who still play with toys.
Basically, like >>13824747 says there would have to be a female sentai red, and even if there wasn't (in a hypothetical world where all the footage is original a la Tir Na Nog) it would most likely be for story decisions, rather than for progressive points.

The thing is that sentai aside, PR was always marketed as a boys think, just check how the toys always give special power ups to the male members only (girls only get those when its a full team power up), the ranger keys released were mostly male and Gia had no focus episodes to the point they switched a Luka/Don episode to a Noah/Jake episode.

Never say never though(there were, after all, MMPR dolls), but it would sort of go against how the franchise has been conceived for the last years, so I personally dont see it happening. Power rangers is already very politically correct anyways (but without letting that hurt the show).

>>13826450
>hey certainly aren't toyetic enough to be as popular as PR, and they always seem to look like hot garbage
Star Wars is toyetic as fuck anon, its in fact considered one of the main things like make the franchise what it is, sort of how gunpla was always part of the gundam franchise. Even minor one-time characters get toys(and I dont even mean "TR8R" minor, even characters that dont even talk). That said, I agree, kids dont really give much of a shit about sexism, at least the ones without sjw parents.

> And Hunger Games doesn't have toys at all, because they aren't appealing to people who still play with toys.
Depends on how you define "toy".
>>
>>13826596
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toyetic
SW is toyetic, but most of it's peripheral merch aren't actual toys. "Toyeticness" refers to merch in general, so a toy, or a video game, or a lunch box. SW is super toyetic, but not in the same way Power Rangers is, because SW is a blockbuster film franchise, and Power Rangers is a children's TV show.
>Depends on how you define "toy".
If it's going onto a shelf and not into a kid's hands, it's not a toy. Image search shows lots of Amazon reviews that treat those HG figurines as collectibles that offer very little in the way of actual play (there's little to no articulation, and the clothes are all molded plastic), and that they're good collector's items.

Who wants to bet that Gold Ninja Steel ranger is going to be an alien who's in love with Earth culture, but has but thinks it's only cowboys? They'll probably use Zaram's suit from Toquger for the alien form

We also won't see transfer line changes.

The original transfer changes were interesting but generic, the only thing that you got was another ranger's weapon.

If they had brought Toqger over, they could have done a twist on the Transfer line like every suit came with it's own unique power and by changing colour, the characters could utilise each other's powers.

Things they could have kept.
-Transformation sequences
-Zords
-Plotline- America has already done movies about X year old wakes up to find himself an adult. Toqger could have received a faithful adaptation.
-Set it in an area where trains are still used like the US Northeast.

Get rid of
-The Bazooka Sequence. Skip the silly imagination-powered karmic death to the explosion.
-Imagination as a theme. It's something that really skews Toqger to a younger audience. I never really liked it because it presumes only little kids can be imaginative and not adults who work in creative industries.
-The LED display announcing the Zord's names. Or maybe not considering how these things are unedited (the original Gosei card names were kept in Megaforce)

Because of Red privilege. Even if the Red Ranger isn't the official leader, they're still the most important member of the team.

I'm curious why they picked that suit. Was there that much original footage of him fighting? He was a movie only guy, right?

It is a cool looking suit, but I wonder if that was the only reason.
>>
>>13833143
>Was there that much original footage of him fighting?

No, he only appeared in a movie and fought the Abarangers(Dino Thunder) and Toqgers mostly.

We usually use the expression "original footage" for PR only footage btw.

I'm sure its looks are the only reason they picked that suit. I think it fits more with the kind of character they're going with than any of the deboss generals.
