And who are you, exactly?

I think it would be cool if Power Rangers did its own thing entirely, without using Sentai footage, themes, suits and mecha.

Oh, I'm not talking about the possibility per se. I'm saying I actually don't have the creativity to imagine what such a series might look like.

And my opinion is Garo and Kamen Rider would never work as Power Rangers adaptions because they are Power Rangers' complete antithesis in terms of their core themes Also personally I'd have no respect for a Rider or Garo adaptation that tried to piggyback off Power Rangers' name.

What about some Toho franchises i.e. The Chouseishin Series? Or maybe Ryukendo and the Tomica Heroes brands?

Under the assumption that we take it all the way back to 1993 maybe Exceedraft?
Because it still has hints of a super hero team/sentai team and if I recall from scans and whatever I could find about it had decent amount of toys/merch. Then a few years later after a few more seasons, around 1996 maybe transition to Blue Swat, then B-Fighter and B-Fighter Kabuto, etc. Picture them writing this show like it was Mission Impossible for kids but with specialists transforming and whatnot.

Then there wouldn't be a show. Unless they try their own suits and zords for once, that'd be awesome.

Yeah except I'm not shutting down your idea before even taking the time to read that it's just a hypothetical. Don't worry, Power Rangers will always be Sentai adapted (for the worst given how Sentai's going) you're comfort zone isn't going away. If you're not gonna bother playing along why even post but to disrupt? Quote:

Nothing's original anymore, it can only be more original than other things when it comes to taking ideas from them. Quote:

Again, says who? You guys have no sense of... anything outside the typical, don't you? Why is that? Aversion to change? The idea that the cheap, commercial runoff that is Power Rangers somehow has an unshakable standard? Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 08-23-2015 at 12:42 PM.. |

At least you're honest about it.

If you're not gonna bother playing along why even post but to disrupt? But you do have respect for cheap American programming (not even filmed in America) piggybacking on the ideas and assets of another show, itself piggybacking off the concept for Spider-man of all things? Nothing's original anymore, it can only be more original than other things when it comes to taking ideas from them. I was thinking going forward, so we'd have more options, but that would've been cool. Again, says who? You guys have no sense of... anything outside the typical, don't you? Why is that? Aversion to change? The idea that the cheap, commercial runoff that is Power Rangers somehow has an unshakable standard? But I'll put it bluntly so hopefully you'll understand: Power Rangers at it's core like Sentai is a show focused on teamwork. Kamen Rider is not. Garo is not. So it's ridiculous in my mind to even consider them. Doubly so for Garo since the amount of editing that show would have to go through to meet American tv's standards for children's programming would make 4kids editing look conservative. As for PR piggybacking off of Sentai's name...that's so laughable it hurts given that the American populace at large didn't and still doesn't have a fucking clue that Sentai exists. PR for better or worse has had to prove it's worth for over 20 years mostly on it's own merits. *the only case you could make is MMPR cashing in on the dinosaur craze created by Jurassic Park but even that was by large a fortunate accident* As for shows with a Sentai like theme like Tomica Rescue Heroes or Winspector outside of the footage being dated the biggest hurdle those shows would have is the lack of a giant robo. |

If you don't agree, that's fine, just don't bother posting here at all. Super simple. You came into this thread with the sole purpose of causing shit, and I'm apparently the bad guy? I even said in my first post it'll never happen, this was really just to see if we could come up with something unique and creative, and all you've tried to do is squelch that. Why, I don't know. Totally harmless hypothetical, wouldn't change a thing, and the first words out of your figurative mouth are "Then it wouldn't be Power Rangers." Not even a half-hearted attempt at humouring the subject. Again, why'd you even bother posting in this thread? Last edited by SPLIT LIP; 08-23-2015 at 07:44 PM.. |
