Why would you put a training program in an arcade? AN ARCADE. OF ALL PLACES?! They are surprised they didn't have Megaranger candidates? Oh really? I wonder why that is? Maybe it's because you put the training module in a hive of children, teenagers and obese men and women, you would have probably been better off putting it in a crack den.

So? They put flight simulators in video game format and in museums. Mind you they don't start that way or are used to test for pilots but still. Yeah it's a bit weird but really, I can't complain because it gets the characters somewhat where they need to be. Maybe INET just figured they'd put out into the public and privately use it as a simulator and let the public play it as a game?
Also what's with the obese men and women part? Are you implying that outside of kids and teenagers there would only be obese people in an arcade?

All I'm saying is, if they wanted a place to find Megaranger's they'd target a gym or a training camp or SOMETHING. You wouldn't pick the place where greasy teenagers are stood around wasting their youth, an arcade seems like one of the worst possible choices.

If The Last Starfighter wasn't brilliant, sure.

Well, I just finished watching the first episode of Abaranger, since I finally found it on Youtube and it was great, just like some of my buddies said. I just loved the fact that the Abarangers could communicate with their dinosaurs, just one of those simple things.
Man, I wish they did that in Dino Thunder, it would've been great to see.

To be honest, I did not care for MegaRanger all that much the first time I started watching it. However, I don't know what it was, but I suddenly had this impulse to give the show a second try and it was great, especially the villains and they get some really good development throughout the show. I would say MegaRanger is probably closer to my 15th favorite Sentai series, but in the long run, it is a very good one. Yugande is freaking badass.

"Are you all familiar with that video game that is actually a training exercise for superheroes? What, you aren't? Well fuck it put these on anyway, they can do all the work for you so I dunno why we even set up this incredibly thin and stupid premise doopdeedoo!"

Finally watched the last stretch of Dairanger Episodes.
I loved them...and at the same time I am absolutely infuriated by them. The whole plot twist with Master Kaku was brilliant and made me wish the whole show was about the Gorma infighting. On the other hand Episode 45 & 46 alone made me go from "I dont particular care for the Dairangers but I dont dislike him" to "I hate every single one of those five Idiots". Was it so hard for them to trust their Masters plan? Instead they walked around and fought against him and his companion. I never saw myself hoping that the heroes would finally lose so Kaku could get rid of their powers. Another thing I really really didnt care about was the whole the Gorma are actually Puppets thing it came far to late in the show for me to really care. Another thing I liked was the fact that the war between the Dairanger and the Gorma can never end but yet again they bring it up so late in the game that it wouldnt change anything if they just left it out exactly like the thing with the Gorma puupets Overall I gotta say I dont hate Dairanger. I dont like it yes but I dont hate it and there are things to enjoy about this show but certainly not enough for me. |

Okay, watched the first episode of Megaranger.
I can see where Locke is getting at concerning how dumb it could get (If the suits are programmed to fight, why do they need specific candidates?), but eh. It's a Sentai where the red ranger isn't a Japanese Jesus, so I'm gonna stick with it. It had solid action, which also helps.
