Well it probably doesn't help that Megaforce/Samurai are probably the worst PR series ever, even by PR standards. Not even the dedicated PR podcast guys remotely like them.

RPM has a grimdark background but it's really a show making fun of the Power Rangers tropes and actually uses some to their advantage (I.E. the pose explosions used as a weapon, questioning why they have to yell out "RPM, GET IN GEAR" etc.) The actors are also really great, and it would be my favorite PR of all time if they didn't pick such a horrible opening theme. I mean who rejects https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ddrhqFrj-Uk and instead goes "Yeah, THIS is so much better, I will put my stamp on this" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5uBvJgNa4s

I really hope they just make Gia the leader of the Pirate season or something.

The pacing to the episodes just seem way off, like it's on hyper juice and then they flounder at the fight scenes. That's my main problem with it. Well that and Troy being the most invisible red ranger since Rocky.

Cliff Racer posted:I don't know why everyone seriously brings Wasserman up as a good thing, outside of the MMPR theme song the show's music was either forgettable or downright bad. Especially future theme songs which were all stilted messes. How can you hate In Space, SPD, and the X-Men 90's theme song? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2fMkkZ9H3g0

Flameingblack posted:So they're going to get a new cast for Gokaiger's US adaptation right? I can't see the robo red ranger becoming Mr Swag, Captain Marvelous, or the nerd becoming second in swag, Joe. Gia would make a great Luka and Jake might make a good Joe and that's about all. I don't know why BMX queen would suddenly become the frail princess. Nope, the Megaforce cast will become the Gokaigers. Gia's actress posted a picture of herself with Gokai yellow's helmet a week or so ago.

jivjov posted:So I started in on watching Shinkenger, and I'm liking a lot of the cast, but how long until Red stops being an arrogant dick? He's really dragging the show down for me. How arrogant is arrogant, because the retainers see his good side really early (like 4 episodes in?) and he's pretty much a goofball with a tough exterior (For god's sake, he's afraid of haunted houses).

I still never understood the decision to take Boukenger's roll call poses but replace their custom dialogue with the exact same "Kick into Overdrive! _____ Ranger!" Like, what is the point?

Dante Logos posted:That is the trend anyway. I think Yoko from Go-Busters and Ahim from Gokaiger started out as idols. It is a jumping point to acting it seems. Luka was also an idol. I assumed they just get former popular idols to play Sentai ever since Dekaranger.

I hope the Toku execs have a brain and don't rely on ratings because you can't loving win against Pokemon, especially in Japan. Possibly worse than Who's Line Is It Anyways pitted against Friends in its prime.

Sentai loves playing the scenes when the exact same person meets their other "character" like Kotoha meeting her Gavan equivalent for no other reason in Taisen Z than because she plays that character.

One thing I don't like is the incredibly chatty background noise the show is doing. Mostly when they switch colors. Hope they tone it down for future episodes, otherwise it sounds really cluttered.

Wildforce definitely used the same cellphone, down to the same morph cg scene. You're probably thinking of Jungle Force which ditched the knuckle morphers for sunglasses. I wouldn't mind the sunglasses as much if they didn't do that stupid gas-karate moves.

The weird thing is, they leave in some Sentai and completely add in custom Goseiger/Gokaiger footage to replace other Sentai. It's like they don't give a gently caress but then really give a gently caress. It's really confusing.

For me, the fighting isn't inspired and there's way too much of a delay when they're doing the changing gimmick. Even Gokaiger constantly changing didn't slow down the pace during a battle.

toomanyninjas posted:I don't watch Gaim, so my lack of ToQ enjoyment doesn't come from an unfair comparison. It's a shame, too, because I love trains and was looking forward to it. I'll drop back in when they get their Sixth and see if that changes the dynamic at all. Same here, I don't watch Kamen Rider and the pacing is relatively slow.

I don't know if Gaim is underpowered because the crossover with ToqQger was basically Gaim struggling against one of the boss monsters while the other, exact monster was being taking out very easily by Right and crew.

Then he'd be best-est buddies with Fourze and be GokaiSilverRider. Not really seeing a problem here.
