What If Dino Fury and Transformers are in the same universe? I'm a die hard Transformers Fan and just a Casual PR fan btw.

If you're asking if Hasbro will do that, unlikely. If it's just a what-if, sounds fun!

Considering Transformers has Crossed over with:
Marvel
Ninja Turtles
Back to the future
Ghost Busters
Top Gun
Terminator

I think it's more then Likely

But which Transformers Universe!? There are a couple!

Personally, I would like to see a crossover with G2 or Beast Wars. G2 was around the time of Mighty Morphin' and Beast Wars was when Transformers became HOT again. Armada would also suffice due to the size comparison with Mini-Cons.

It would be an interesting take cause Toei and TakaraTomy might take notice if it was moderately successful.

I think we'll get it eventually, though like those it'll be a one-off thing not connected to any established universe.

Exactly they could use G1, BW, Etc, or just come up with an Original one.
Would Love to see the Power Rangers take on Devestator, or any of the Decepticon Combiners.
Out of all the Hasbro Properties, PR is best suited for a fight like that even better then the Autobots in some cases.

Man, i would love to see dino fury not suck as much as the first half of beast morphers.

Problem is, Japan is pretty insensitive when it comes to things like foreign politics, religion, cultures. They are improving and have been far more considerate in the last decade, having shown a willingness to learn, as well as change. But for them, they've always been close with Germany, and the mustache itself they consider comedic, pretty much the same as Chaplins stache. I mean look at how they played Kuroin, he was a joke and comedic relief for a good chunk of that special. It's not okay that they amalgamed the stache with a pseudo s.s uniform, bad vibes man. However, this stache was seen across japanese comedy for decades prior, so it sort of became a staple in a sense. It's not okay that it hapened, but they are improving, with time, as they globalize, all of this will cease.

Still i wonder how they'd pull a cross over like that, Grimlock ss86 mold turns into t-rex zord with a red ranger alt mode?

Turtles? When and how? Tried looking and came up zip!

IDW Infestation Crossover, Didn't read it myself thou

Yeah, the Turtles were a part of Infestation. I haven't gotten across to it either, but I get the feeling that maybe they didn't interact with each other. It's just an event which spanned multiple franchises as if to make an over-arching epic.

It could be modified to serve as a means of incorporating Transformers and Rangers together. Whether Toei and TakaraTomy would do the same for Sentai and Transformers is another matter, but it would be nice if they monitored such things closely and used it for inspiration if nothing else. The Jungle Fury Spirit Rangers seemed to impress upon someone to include the Kyoryuger Spirit Rangers.

Currently watching Magi as Mystic Force had 32 weeks. (17 of 49) I'll also finish Deka in a few days. (36 of 51)

Although we complain about the 2-year format in Power Rangers I don't miss only 32 episodes per year. :rolleyes

What's so great about Dino Charge, RPM?
I guess it's the Story and Characters?
RPM I get it, The Cast and Story are really cool, but the Suits and Zords look stupid to me.
Dino Charge the Suits look cool, but the Zords look like crap.
I'm Primary a Mecha Fan like Transformers, Macross, Gundam, etc so the Suits, Zords and Action were always the most important aspects of PR for me. Story and Character development were a distant 2nd.

We~ll Go-onger was not a post-apocalyptic sci-fi show like RPM so there was that setback. And there is no way they are gonna re-design the zords. :lolol
But the suits are well-designed I think. The belt and harness are obviously inspired by seatbelts in racecars(a really nice aesthetic choice), the logo format is nice and well-placed on the suits, the tires on the glove and boots are another great example of matching the aesthetics, as well as the dashed lines on the side of the arms.

A bit too gaudy for my taste but I can see the appeal. I also liked how they acknowledged the Big Anime Eyes of the Zords at least.

RPM mainly gets alot of its praise for going darker than what the series normally did up to that point. It was originally written with a target audience of 15 year olds and it shows. It was also originally going to be the final season of the franchise, which got alot of people interested.

Dino Charge, however, to this day confuses me with its popularity. The most I could gather from asking around was that most of its praise comes from the idea that... it's better than Super Mega Force. Which I mean, yeah, it is, but like, low bar? I suppose Koda is often cited as another highlight, and while yeah, I like the guy too, I was a much bigger fan of Philip and Heckyl.

Yeah, I never got the love for either series. RPM is nowhere near the edgy masterpiece everyone makes it out to be. It’s got a frikkin talent show to find a new Ranger for crying out loud. And despite his rep for destroying humanity, Venjix really didn’t do a good job, considering how many are shown to be still alive outside of the safe haven. Plus, I think aside from Dillon and maybe Ziggy, most of the characters are ehh.

Dino Charge i think the love comes from the “original plot”, but I personally think the plot is rather dull compared to Kyoryuger’s. Sledge’s muted palette stands out horribly among the Sentai’s colourful cast, as does the US footage’s habit of having neither similar locations nor similar lighting to the stock footage, making the transition painfully obvious. Plus what was the point of replacing one alien mentor with another, especially since the latter does nothing of note beyond destroying the dinosaurs and the former still shows up as the silver ranger later? Plus pretty much every problem I’ve seen people have with Beast Morphers and Ninja Steel (moralising, low budget explosion effects [though I insist that Ninja Steel’s did look good to begin with], the bad guy being after the heroes’ powers and the lack of screen time for non-human characters on the side of good) are present in Dino Charge.

TL;DR I like the Sentai versions of both shows more.

This to me is exactly why it's good -- it's only edgy and incredibly dark when compared to other seasons, but in reality it's got just the right balance of dealing with serious stakes and storylines and balancing that with the inherent silliness of the genre; which is what makes Toku so good in the first place.

Dino Charge was excellent in its first season. Cast and characters were great, Sledge was a memorable villain he appeared in later PR shows. The second "Super" season was... okay at best. There were a lot of writing problems and the ending was a giant fudge-up.

Yeah, but that's also not unique to RPM, ya know? Heck, my second favorite season, SPD, is also like that. Being a great balance between a cop drama and alot of inherent goofiness the genre is known for.

Note: I also like RPM, but I do agree with some others that it's a bit overrated.

Personally I liked the second season more. I absolutely loathed Sledge and I especially dislike Poisandra. Heckyl and Snide were alot more appealing to me. Seriously, is Poisoandra really so popular that they feel the need to keep bringing her back every season?

I do agree that the ending was dumb though.

Was Sledge in the original Sentai? I'm watching a lot of past PR seasons on Netflix trying to see what the popular ones are like. I guess it just comes down to the aesthetics for me. If I don't like them I just can't get into it. Dino Fury, Knights, Swords, Armor, 9+ Megazord forms, I'm all over that.

Nope, Sledge was original to PR

Really, why didn't they use the main villain of the Sentai?

One of the forms for the Kyoryuger "Big Bad" was used as the Dino Charge monster Greenzilla, but the final form has never been seen in any incarnation of Power Rangers!

I get Sentai is generally going to be the better of the two most of the time, but are people really now preferring Kyoryuger to Dino Charge or Go-onger to RPM?! I could at least watch Kyoryuger but what I disliked about it the most was how the entire thing felt a bit manufactured, how it was trying to make Sentai be a certain way when while I agree Go-Busters wasn't exactly one of my favourites either, at least it was slightly more interesting in terms of characters and story in my book! This is probably a controversial opinion but I actually prefer both Dino Charge and Dino Force Brave to Kyoryuger on that occasion, I think for some reason I must tend to be a bit picky on characters and story moreso than giant fights and so on.

I'll be done with Deka (Detective) Ranger next week. (40 of 51)

Shipping Magi in from Brazil.

This is one Badass Ryusoulger/Dino Fury Fan Art!

Dang.

Random thought: i was just looking at my robo-Blaze figure and thought he looked like an evil robo-squidward tentacles. Like does anybody see that when they look at Enter from Go- Busters, or am i just nuts?

Random question: Who’d be up for it if I created my own “X watches a show they haven’t really seen” thread? My last one was a really obscure show, so it didn’t get much buzz. But I think the idea I have in mind for my new show of choice is likely to draw in more views. It is a Sentai show, so that’s why I’m bringing up the idea here.

(Though please bare in mind that I cannot guarantee pictures to go with my posts. Mostly because when it comes to uploading pictures, I have to upload to Twitter, open the app, open the picture in Safari and then use that url. So I may have one photo per post, sometimes not even that).

For me it depends on the Sentai. If it's one of the few that I'm currently interested in checking out, then yeah, I'll follow along.

But really, if you wanna do a thread, my best advice is to just kinda... do it. Don't grip onto attention when doing these or you might lose motivation fast.

Yeah, just do it. :rock:
If you are doing 80s shows PLEASE do Liveman. Seriously that show is so underrated.

Yeah, this is definitely good advice. The most important question here is just, like... is it something you want to do, before it's anything else. If the process of making the thread itself is something you can feel passionate about and have fun doing, that's reason enough to make it happen.

For the record, though, if it's a Sentai I've already seen, I'd be more than up to at least read along and see your thoughts on it. I have weird spoilerphobe tendencies when it comes to things I haven't seen but want to though, so to be perfectly honest, it might keep me away if it's a Sentai I've yet to watch for myself.

You’re closest to what I intend to do. But I’m not doing Liveman. I’ve seen it twice and I don’t think a third watch would make me like it more or less than I already do.

And yes, I have decided to go through with it. Though I’m keeping what show it is under wraps until I start the thread (It’ll update every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday, so I’ll start the thread around Monday).

Good stuff, as long as I know someone has seen the show fine by me. :lolol

So I've been watching Kiramager (I fell behind a little bit but I'm catching up) and while I enjoy it, it feels awfully generic. On the other hand, Lupinranger vs Patoranger is one of my favorite because of how it changes up the typical formula. So my question is...which Sentai seasons feel the least generic?

LuPat feels less generic. It's just more disappointing because it sets out to do something different, then folds halfway through.
Kiramager is more standard Sentai fare, but it's not trying to be anything but, nor is it trying to convince you otherwise.

And that's perfectly fine, I can't fault it for that. But I'm more into the ones that change things up. What are some others?
