No. They named him that solely to kick me in the nuts, after already breaking my legs. ... Yes, I am still bitter.

How do you figure?

I personally don't. I was merely offering a counter opinion.

Ah. Because Disney wanted PR dead. I really don't see what Disney did that was better than Saban, for both target audience or adult collectors.

well the only thing that differ from disney and saban is the milking the advertising the brands thats it

In my opinion the presentation of story, this case the upcoming anniversary series, and yes that's really what gokaiger is. Kids wont care, they weren't around at the beginning. But the way they are ramming a non anniversary series onto the anniversary series, under terms of the stupid Nick season episode count, there's little room for it to be anything other than what samurai was....a poor story

I hope you understand that kids in Japan weren't around for the beginning either.

He's right... Kind of =p They won't care in the same sense that an older fan might be miffed if his favourite team etc get skipped, but they will just see it as other cool rangers that they'll dig the designs of and want toys of that design etc.

As for storytelling, you can tell a perfectly good story in 2 minutes if you're good enough. Samurai, I haven't watched shinkenger and super hasn't even started to air over here, only struggles to me due to the, at times, poor acting and that they seem to be trying to cram too much cheesy humour into it.

Super has started over here (at least on Nick, I vaguely remember hearing its on channel 5 too). Don't know where its up to though.

The story in Samurai is fine, like you said its the acting and cheese that's bringing it the most part down. There is the issue of it being a carbon copy of Shinkenger, but that only matters to the small portion of the audience who's happened to have seen both shows. Kids won't aren't going to know any different.

Meshing two completely series together sounds strange, but I'm not watching Megaforce expecting an American version of Goseiger/Gokaiger and I suggest anyone who is to go away and just rewatch the Japanese series instead. If they can rewrite the story to make it work, then I see no reason why it shouldn't be done.

Damn, really... I didn't realise Ultimate spider man had started showing new eps either till yesterday, need to keep more up to date on my kids tv =p

This, big time. They should be judged as separate entities and not as one thing butchering/spoiling the other etc.
