The crossover everyone wants......

Why must they fight against each other?!
Maybe not against each other, but it would be a little embarassing if one group looks ineffectual compared to the other. It's not impossible for a character to be useful despite their lower power level (see: American super hero teams, I guess), but I'm not sure a Toei/Tsuburaya collab would pull that off too well.

Giants in the Rider-verse have the power of size. That's the power. Ultra characters are generally cosmic-level with or without size. There'll even be moments such as Ultraseven 21, at human size, smashing through brick and steel doors with ease. Or when Tiga fought human-sized enemies, and one, not even fully focused, kick sent a Raybeak Seijin soaring. Right afterwards, Tiga flew through brick walls like it was nothing.
Or even to go classic, the original Ultraman rearranged an entire system of stars, and took a hydrogen bomb straight on with no apparent damage.

Yeah, I get what you mean there. More recently, Ultraman Saga had Zero fight at like 1/10 his normal height, and he still managed to throw around a kaiju.

Not me, I'm holding out for an official Ultraman X Godzilla crossover. Hopefully it can end with Godzilla not being sliced into millions of pieces.
Have Godzilla monsters team up with Reinoyxes. Toho already has a "Reionyx Burst Godzilla", anyway.
 
And I bet if Toei or at least the writers for Kamen Rider were doing the script and filming then it would most likely be filled with lots of unnecessary humor (mostly bad) and filmed with tons of pointless wide shoots and shaky cam
 
I hope that Tsuburaya and Toei will do some major crossover in 2016 for Ultraman's 50th and Kamen Rider's 45th anniversary.
 
It would not even make any any sense for the Ultras to fight other heroes.
Even the more "edgy" ones such as Agul and Hikari would never go into a random fight with someone that they didn't see as a threat.
It was more like "I have business to do. If you get in the way, you might get killed"
They are beings of light that represent the hope of humanity. Turning them into typical Rider-characters that would get into fights for no reason would be completely out of character for them.

Of course, you could always use the brainwash plot which has been done to death, but I would like to know how the heck Shocker would be able to brainwash an Ultra.
Even though we are in the world of endless possibilities, it would just seem weird that a Earth-based organisation would suddenly have the power to cross into another dimension and brainwash a group of God-like beings.
WHY would they even bother with such a plan, when they could just build mecha?

The only possible way I could see an Ultra/Rider/Sentai crossover work, is if you had Belial as the main villain crossing into the Rider/Sentai dimension and team up with one of their villains.

The problem is that this would actually require a plot where the heroes interact with each other instead of fight, and that is not what Toei wants for these kind of movies.

Because tsundere-DaiKaitowhiners can't steal God-beings. :P

You forget there are possibilities with robot dopplegangers(Robot Ultraseven) or imitators(Zarab-Seijin) attacking Riders and Sentai, and when the real deal come along, the mojority of would be the Ultras trying to clear thier names.
