A few months ago while on vacation, I decided to try and watch some Mighty Morphin Power Rangers on Netflix with my cousin. We agreed that there was plenty to laugh at, but that the sum of the parts wasn't great, particularly in the pacing department! Since then, I've been working to fix that by condensing each episode into a five-minute affair on average, preserving all of the best action and the "best" acting. Until now I'd been posting it in the Tokusatsu thread down in animetown, but I have now been made aware of this thread. You can find it here, but be forewarned that I was working with really lovely and inconsistent quality rips up until episode 12, so you may or may not want to skip to that episode. Enjoy!

I was just reading up on that earlier today. They were going to have a scene where the Ranger stormed Rita's palace and sealed her away again.

I'll never be a Power Ranger - I love drugs and alcohol too much. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-ZRzpb_D9Q Speaking of which, here's one bad weed! This episode marks the start of original footage shot specifically for the American show, and features a pretty decent performance from Squatt, making it A Good Episode.

GuyUpNorth posted:Insofar as "why isn't Tokyo burning ruin already" then yes, it's the excuse to recycle Toei Quarry. A good shitload of the battles do take place in Tokyo and feature explosions big and small that really ought to be causing lasting damage, so I both disagree and have to ask if you've watched Ex-Aid.

Craptacular! posted:No, I'm saying it's a writer crutch to transition from a scene they did to a scene they really wanted to do even if it made no sense to explain how it happened. Did you manage to watch Ex-Aid without subs? It's not a similar concept. Stage Select doesn't act as a means of clairvoyance, nor is it a thing that brings a Rider physically to his opponent (except in a few rare cases). It's used to make fights in progress flashier. To your comparison, poster, I say no thank you. Scaly Haylie fucked around with this message at 10:04 on Nov 10, 2017 |

Your earlier post:Craptacular! posted:KR wasn't even able to tell it's own story without leaning on a bunch of bullshit Stage Select!! transitions to random rock quarries and warehouses suggested you thought it was a way to tie things together in terms of plot instead of literally just style points, but okay.

It was at least pretty clear that the Zeonizers were a thing cooked up by Zordon to tap into the sub-crystals. The explanation for the power shades seems to be "I know a guy who knows a guy".
