Don't get me wrong, this poster is still laughable, but I gotta think that putting one of the faceless, emotionless Power Rangers in the position of "hero looking up at the stars full of emotion/wonder/worry/whatever" is purposeful.

Not bad, really. I've heard some iffy things about the 25th Anniversary Blu-Ray release, particularly the subtitles, so if this release fixes that, I'll probably pick it up.

"Seeing what's coming" is kind of a staple of noir anyway. So I can't fault BRICK for that. It's always about bad women, double crosses, and people making bad decisions.

The inclusion of the chess pattern, and the layers of detail you've got going on in the upper left look really good. It captures the film's dreamlike atmosphere without being too cluttered. The font just isn't doing it for me, though. Makes it look like Watchmen. It doesn't mesh well with the translucent look of the poster, either.

I don't particularly care for the typeset. I also think the text may be too brightly colored. What if you made it paler, to match the yellow of the half-halo? Alternatively, you could leave the text as it is and try upping the saturation of the rest of the poster.

Edit: here's a very rough example of what I meant.

These own and the super saturated one is my favorite since I feel like it nails the aesthetic of the movie.

their suits also look super different and far less busy (and frankly, more like they do in the tv show) here. Do you think this is some "final form" for them, or merely a simplification so they'll love better as small figures on the poster? Because I much prefer these designs. Brighter and simpler, definitely redesigned, but still read as "power rangers."

No matter if they're going for goofy toy-like look or not but this and the previous PR poster have both really bad color palettes and people responsible for that are hacks.

Replace the title with a different lighter font. Your poster's idea relies on detail and things blending into one another and a big blocky title really goes against it. It's a cool font but not for your poster.

I'm not sure how to phrase this, so I'll just come out and say it - Pink Ranger's right titty looks like it's just hanging there in front of her chest.

Like she got some kind of magnetic hover titty.

The style is good, but the composition is off. The focal point of your poster is the big blank space in the middle where there's just a building and checkered tile. The eye leads down from Rachel to Deckard's eyeline into a void. If you were able to keep all the same elements and shift everything around into a stronger composition it would be a much stronger poster overall. Perhaps it might be interesting to put Roy on the left side to balance out ford, then Rachel being in the middle of them could have some thematic significance. I'd still move her down a touch in that case, though.

Also, the type treatment doesn't work. I'd say either go for a stylized version of the film's actual font or take inspiration from some of the typesetting in the film. There's plenty of examples of print materials from the film out there that you could draw from. Might I suggest the film's actual font but in a glowing neon?
