I like how they've introduced Robo Knight. For those that wanted him, and Megaforce in-general, to be exactly like Gosaiger, you've still got Gosaiger to watch. As for acting in Megaforce being "bad" like back in MMPR, from what I've seen of the Power Ranger shows since MMPR...how is this at all a step backwards? Granted I haven't seen the majority of PR shows they've done, but still, none of them were much, if any, better than MMPR was acting-wise. Quite honestly, what I saw of Samurai was worse than MMPR was.
I will admit that, one of the things that I really enjoy about Megaforce is the MMPR nostalgia it brings to the table. Doesn't affect my view of the acting, which while not great, is good...for a Power Rangers show. Anyways, back to Robo Knight. I honestly don't understand the rage some have over him. Most especially since we've just been introduced to him, and barely so at that.

The problem is that it shouldn't just be "Good for a Power Rangers show."
We should ask for and expect to see "Good" just flat out. Iron Man and The Dark Knight are good movies. Not just "Good for a comic book movie" but good movies in general. As an audience, we shouldn't just lower our standards for a show because of the preconceived notion of "It's Power Rangers. It's SUPPOSED to be like that."

That's a really good story as it not only keeps the elements that are what people love about Gosei Knight there's enough new stuff that makes Robo Knight his own character as well.
Pity Saban doesn't care about that sort of thing. He really doesn't want to lose his cash cow again so he's rehashing MMPR Levels of story telling in the vain hope of getting more money, at the cost of upsetting adult fans that grew to love deeper story telling. I pray that this "Power Rider" is just a new vehicle and not a chance for him to taint Fourze or any other Rider. |

Saban gave up on Power Rangers after "Lost Galaxy". The show began to lose its audience (again, for the 3rd time), and he was actively shopping the network but apparently wanted a giant price. That said, the show was basically given to Tzachor to handle and the show didn't run off the usual "CORPORATE SAYS" BS that you see these days. The writers had more freedom, the budget was more flexible, etc.
Now the entire idea is "take the Japanese show, translate it following footage, and release it, and stay within budget". Saban makes boatloads of cash off Power Rangers and with it is able to do things like Digimon Fusion, etc.

You can say its not a step backwards when you admit to not having seen the majority of the PR shows. You can't compare the acting of what you haven't seen, so your opinion can't truly be relevant. |
