Shinichirô Shirakura Announces Discontinuation of Super Hero Taisen Films
Toei’s Director of Planning and Production Shinichirô Shirakura announces the discontinuation of “Spring” movies for the Kamen Rider and Super Sentai franchises on Twitter. Recently, on the social media platform Twitter, Toei’s Director of Planning and Production Shinichirô Shirakura announced the discontinuation of “Spring” movies for the Kamen Rider and Super Sentai franchises. These “Spring” movies are generally known as the Super Hero Taisen films. いわゆる春映画は、もうやらないつもりです。公開中『平ジェネFINAL』がFINALと銘打ってるのはそういう意味もあり、冬・春、2本ぶんの総力を結集しました。 アマゾンズはアマゾンズでべつの流れで、従来のライダー映画とはまた別の、すんごい何かを提供できればと思ってます。 — 白倉伸一郎 (@cron204) December 13, 2017 On Twitter, Shirakura stated: “We do not intend to do “Spring” movies. The “FINAL” on this one’s title refers to this as well and it concentrated the efforts for both the Winter and Spring movies. The Amazons movie is part of another thing, separate from the main Rider movies. We would like to bring something impressive.” The “FINAL” Shirakura was referring to was the Kamen Rider Heisei Generations FINAL: Build & Ex-Aid with Legend Riders film, which opened on December 9th at #1 for the Japanese box office. Additionally, the “Amazons movie” is reference to the recently announced Kamen Rider Amazons – Final Chapter film that is set for Spring 2018, the same opening frame for the previous “Spring” films.

So no more crossovers between the two franchises? I can live with that. So long as we keep getting movies for either franchise, I'm happy.

I'm not too bothered. A lot of these movies were incredibly underwhelming and disappointing at times.

If people still want crossovers they could just go back to doing the specials like Gaim/ToQger and Ninninger/Drive
They were mini films in themselves

I imagine this doesn't mean we won't see any more Sentai or Rider movies, just that they're going to stop churning out so many on a schedule. The frequency definitely had a negative impact on quality.

I can live without it. Majority of them were not received well anyways.

I'm glad that they are done with because these crossovers are really bad fan fiction made on the big screen in my opinion. I stop watching them after the Showa vs. Heisei movie because it felt like that they where becoming the same thing over and over again.

About time. The Taisens were an awful waste of everyone's time.
Hope they still do miniseries like Kamen Rider 4 and Kamen Sentai GoRider on occasion, though. The movies they tied into were garbage, but they were still pretty solid content. |
