It's not ryuger or ranger though, it's just yuger. Kyoryu literally means Dinosaur. As with a lot of recent sentai the suffix part of the name usually isn't any kind of word at all. Just a piece of a word to make the name roll off more smoothly. Like Go-Onger instead of Go-On Ranger, or Shinkenger instead of Shinken Ranger.
That makes more sense. |

If you're going to do an anniversary season, adapting it from Gokaiger, an anniversary season of Super Sentai (and a huge one at that), you'd have to go all out and pull out all the stops on this. Remember Power Rangers In Space? That was originally meant to be the last season of the show (due to Turbo sucking), and Saban did everything he could to make it the best season back then. Guess what? It saved Power Rangers! Super Megaforce can, too, if Saban just LISTENS TO THE FANS and does what they want him to do for this milestone. Until we see the show itself, I'm not believing anything Fury Diamond says. He may have been right in the past, but everyone can be wrong at some point in their lives. |

But they would have at least needed the actors for voice over if nothing else right? It just smacks of Saban's cheapness. It seems like they're using the money angle as an easy excuse and putting blame on the actors for not coming in spite of this. It feels like they want to guilt the actors into coming out for the big anniversary even though they won't make jack for this job.
In All Riders versus Daishocker, Rider 1 and 2 didn't have speaking parts at all, nodding and doing grunts and such. The only Riders to come back for the cameo were the one from Agito, Black/Black RX and I believe one more (besides good ol' Momo of course.) Quote:
If anything's clouding my mind, it's confusion. This is supposed to be the big anniversary season, and hearing all this news about Saban being a cheap bastard including little to no cameos by many Power Rangers actors leads me to believe that Fury Diamond is lying.

Regardless, the "confusion/anger" should be pointed at Saban. This certainly is a "don't shoot the messenger" type of scenario. |

Whoa I never meant to call into question Fury Diamond, haha, I'd just never heard of them before joining this forum and I was just interesting in who the man, the myth...the legend was
Also I don't like kyoryuger either, all the toku in my life is from the past.

Fury Diamond is a rockstar and someone I consider a friend after having many conversations with him privately. He's part of a great site and crew over at RangerCrew. All stand up people, glad to be able to consider them friends.

No, I'm sure Fury Diamond's a great guy. It's just that all these news about former Power Rangers actors being denied a spot on Super Megaforce reeks to high heaven. I think if anything, Saban wouldn't cheap out on an anniversary season like this. Hell, Megaforce managed to get rid of what they could with Goseiger's angel motif, so why just go for a straight adaptation of Gokaiger when in the past we've had seasons where Power Rangers had an original story instead of being more or less a translation of the original Sentai?
As I said before, I'm not believing any sort of news related to Super Megaforce until we see the show in action before I make judgment. |
