Could Power Rangers continue without Sentai?

Even in CGI........THEY WERE STILL KAKURANGER MECHA!!! Quit denying it

Now, if the CGI made zords looked like something completely different......then we're talking but. But it was clearly, CGI KAKURANGER MECHA!!!

Why are we arguing over this?! :sly:

If it's american-based, then it's not from super footage, end of discussion!
 
I thought power rangers should have ended long ago, around lost galaxy, so that the nostalgic appeal could be put into play later on. to your average Joe, when you think power rangers, you think MMRP, not Light speed rescue or jungle fury or who-else-what. when people think of the red ranger, you think of Jason, Tommy, C.J, or Andross, not the guy from Operation Overdrive.

I seriously think PR should pack it in and maybe create a revisioning of the original MMRP with revised Zyu suits and revised enemy suits. Forget about making a Shinkenger revision because that's not what people want.

With trends for the nineties coming over the hill to dawn straight into our eyes, Power Rangers is going to become one of those big name properties. why not finally put some money into the franchise and make something big and great out of it. What about doing a battlestar galactica with Power Rangers? wouldn't that be a good idea? Well, nothing like that's going to happen if theres always a new power ranger show coming around the corner every year.

I know this sounds like me being a nitpicker and anti-PR and such but I'm just being honest about it. Ain't gonna be a popular opinion but hell, that's my opinion.

You are missing the point. Whether or not the footage is original is irrelevant, the actual design and concept was from Kakuranger.

To put it in more simple terms, the Power Rangers writers did not think up of the Ninja Zords themselves, they took the Chounin Beasts from Kakuranger and renamed them. No Chounin Beasts means no Ninja Zords.
 
The spirit rangers that were based off of the auxilery Gekiranger beasts? That looked less quality than the regular suits?

And the MMPR came out at PR's height, that will rarely be done again for a full season . It can be done but will be pricey, with not just the usual hiring but having to design and make your own suits and fight footage. You usually see that for shows aimed at older audiences, not kids. Adapting cuts out much of that.

I doubt that it can be done and it has already proven from times to times. I mean..why bothering copy off super sentai when you have your own suits and the fight footage? It can be done.

Don't you think I know that? While we're still debating, it's virtually impossible that most footage that they're using came from super sentai. I know that it came from kakuranger, but they have opportunity to make it their own suits and the fight footage.

Writers can come up with many new ideas. Tell me...why are we still copying off super sentai?!?! It's eyesore!

It's funny how people keep saying PR is copying Sentai when Disney/Saban got the rights to the footage and props. If making a PR very true to their counterpart (Like Time Force and Timeranger) people will bitch about it saying it's a direct copy) and then a PR like RPM which was almost nothing like Go-Onger and people still complain saying Go-Onger is better and blah blah blah, man people always find stuff to complain about.

This is why people don't get you. You make posts that clearly show you arn't reading the points others make.
 
They did in the MMPR Movie but instead of using models, they used CGI.

About the topic, they can survive without the using Sentai footage. Heck, look at The Mystic Knights of Tir na Nog something, something...

It's still from zyuranger and kakuranger. They didn't create anything new in the movie. All they did was add padding and other useless crap to the Zyu suits, and CGI up the Kakuranger mecha. It's not new nor original.
 
10-15 years? It's too soon to say that ever since they just got PR franchise back from Disney, so we have to see if it's very successful, then you can confirmed that it will be around for pretty, pretty long time.

I do believe that it can go on without Sentai, no doubt. Look at Super Sentai, they've been around that long enough...long before my time! So it's time for PR to do the very same. I have good faith in Saban. We don't need to copy off from Super Sentai.

Actually if Sentai were to fold, Saban can utilize the designers from Japan into making the suits and mech much like they were going to do for Season 2 of MMPR ala Zyu 2. If he cannot get Toei to help, then he can tap the resources from Nick and Paramount to make an American series with his vast amounts of money, though it might come off as very different unless they stick to the sentai look.
 
Oh, no, no, no, no, no. It was entirely american-based. Jungle Fury proven that! Jungle Fury has spirit rangers and how can you say that they were still based off from the sentai footage?

It has already proven that PR can survive and will go on without having to using the sentai footage. MMPR movie has already proven that to us and you dare to speak that they are still based off of the sentai footage? Think again, my friend.

1. The Jungle Fury new suits were just altered colors of pre-existing suits. The helmets were remolds. It's not original.

2. Many people now have debunked that MMPR movie nonsense. Try reading it.

I seriously can never get enough of your physical inability to admit anything from Power Rangers can stand on it's own as original. It's just so wonderful.
