What if Saban Never sold Power Rangers?

[SapphireBlue]

We'd have American actors/actresses, and they'd be adults.

I've thought of this before....

if Saban never sold PR and still owns PR. The seasons after WF would have been more serious. We would have had different actors/actresses...we would have never had JDF back for the 12th season. The logos and the titles would have been different (except that the 13th season would still be called PR SPD anyways)

Wonder what titles Saban would have used (except SPD) instead of the ones we had by Disney.

Basically it would still say "Saban's" Power Rangers ______ for the title.
Now if Saban was still in business, then yeah, the Power Rangers would have been more serious than some of the stuff from the recent Super Sentai (not that I am saying that PR are better than SS, which I am against these type of wars). There would no over usage of the Wire-Fu stunts, less "Kalish"-plosion, less CGI animation, the rangers would stand during their Morphing sequence rather than jump in the air like frogs and have flashy colours swooping around, the plot lines for each season would have been much darker, more romance, more bloodshed, deaths, redemption, and less comical characters. Finally, the acting would not be too pale, instead each cast member would reconnect to their Sentai counterparts, the villains would have bad-ass voice actors, the location for the production would have been moved to Canada instead of New Zealand, and there would be more team-ups from previous PR seasons and other shows including Beetleborgs, Kamen Rider Faiz, Kabuto, Kuuga, Agito, and VR Troopers, there would be more diversity in the cast and last but not least, the action choreography would be even better.

That is why I think Saban should have never sold the PR Franchise to Disney in the first place. The only exception we have so far is Power Rangers Jungle Fury.

This is the kinda idea I thought of as a thread to make at RangerTalk and at RangerCast...I'll do that tomorrow sometime

Actually I recall rumors stating he would have agreed to return in PRNS taking Cam's role/Mentor of the team.

As for me, maybe Power Rangers AND Super Sentai will kick ass... a lot. Look, Saban wants to honor the Sentai genre by making PR close to Sentai and coller like Sentai. After PRT, PRiS to PRWF are awesome.

And about the action choreography, maybe Makoto Yokoyama will stay along w/ Koichi Sakamato as the action directors. And maybe, Mark Musashi will be part of PR.:thumbs:

I think the reason why they sold the PR franchise to Disney is because they run low of cash. If Mystic Knights of Tir na Nog didn't happen, maybe they'll never run out of cash and waste their resources for that show. I hope not.

Maybe Saban will make kick-ass PR seasons just like their Sentai counterparts, just as u said. And if Boukenger really sucked, maybe Saban's PROO will make it even better than Bouken. :buttrock:

Um, Saban had it's fair share of problems. People could not go against Saban because they would be sent to Peace Conferences. Classic and later Season's of Power Rangers were pretty flawed too. Remember season 1. Plus, even Saban was moving to copying Sentai, which is exactly Disney's flaw.

As it is, Saban folded so it is likely that PR would not exist had they not sold it.

 

[Kenori]

I never thought PR being like Sentai was a problem. No quite the opposite. What I can't stand is PR being like a watered down version of Sentai.

 

[Tanuki]

I don't mind similarities, but I kind of like new storylines and uses for the footage, so we have a different show we can send back there, like we did with Season 1 where they had the Zyu people dubbing over PR who were ripping off Zyu. It was hillarious

If Saban had kept it I may have watched it longer, which is a lot better than watching it now & complaining like crazy.

They copied Sentai, but they did it right about presenting a good story. Time Force is the most serious and the more enjoyable, remember that.

Never knew that before....must have missed that one lol

Anyways, what would have been the PR titles instead of the ones we had then?

Operation Overdrive wouldn't be filled with Explosions

Don't forget Mystic Force
