Actually, a lot would change. We'd just have a fight scene or two from Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger.

I don't expect Saban to put in a lot of effort. My standards for them are quite low. That's why the effort that was put into this episode is enough for me to vote "Excellent."

That is seriously the worst way to go about stuff.

If people continue to have low standards and except a substandard show like this one, then that's all they'll ever get.

I haven't had high expectations on anything since february 16 2013.

I'm a 16-year-old, socially awkward, tokusatsu nerd with absolutely abysmal business skills. What am I supposed to do?

Fuck I'm old.

You get used to it.

That's what I mean. The American Footage was them fighting mooks. Once those mooks were defeated, they were immediately replaced by more mooks and it then switched to Gokaiger footage of them fighting mooks. Take out the American footage and still all that happens is that they fight some mooks. The American footage was nothing but filler.

They really didn't need to show the footage of the mooks dropping from the ships more then once...

If we're talking about footage filmed solely for this show as opposed to Gokaiger (aside: I physically can't say American when there's every argument for calling it New Zealander footage) then yes if you take it all out a damn lot would change.

Troy wouldn't have a boner for RoboKnight. Jake wouldn't have willingly dressed up as a giant frozen yoghurt. They'd know nothing about the database... the list goes on.

In fact all you'd get is out of context fight scene footage from Gokaiger. Exactly like we said.

Of course, I can tell you meant to say "American fight footage". And yes in that sense ditching that lot would make little difference.

In fact, I would rather they filmed more Gokaiger and ditched the Gosei suits to get as far away from a repeat of the Zyu2 fiasco as possible, but I understand the bigger problems associated with even that approach.

As always, it's cheaper, seems to be the phrase to use here. But that still rings untrue for me some how...
