The dialogue was babyish and dumb, and not delivered in any kind of dramatic way. Considering the world is being fucked up right now by the Armada, this SHOULD have been epic.

They come down to the centre of the city, in person because they are just that confident, and announce themselves and as people are running away screaming the Rangers remain stood where they are, inspiring other people to stand tall too before calling the Armada's bluff.

Instead we get the equivalent of "you're a smelly poopoo head." delivered with less emotion than auto tuning.... in a back alley. It makes both the villains and the heroes feel LAME.

To be fair, the back alley problem is still there in Gokaiger too, just that we SEE the Kuroko evacuating the area as Kaoru holds back the Zangyack. It wasn't the best place to land for Warz Gill either, because the only audience was Kaoru, Tanba and the Kuroko. If its any consolation, the upcoming fight makes some pretty good use of the surrounding cars and balconies, although some of it was unmorphed.

The dialogue, however, was still pretty awful. Still not QUITE as bad as Jake's trophy of awfulness that was "Malkor? How do you even spell that? M-A-L-What?", which I don't even get.

Still, I'm hoping we'll get some decent original footage. The on-scene pictures we got way back when of them using the Lost Galaxy suits was from this episode and the image of Argus fighting Troy unmorphed would also probably be from this episode, considering the original Gokaiger plot involved Marvelous getting seriously injured protecting Joe from Barizorg. It still sort of sucks that this isn't a two parter. The upcoming fight was the Gokaiger's first real loss and having an episode of them sort of building up for the rematch was something you don't usually have in Sentai so early in the series.

Yeah this is the one case where I'm not getting the degree of hate from everyone either.... Grating dialogue aside, the scene doesn't reveal a whole lot about anything to me.

Now now. No reason to all ape on us. Let's just all agree that those damn dirty producers at Saban a really bad at their jobs.

Coke and hookers for the producers...

Im surprised this is even a talking point still, they lied. They lied BAD

dammit, you beat me to it

Yeah... I can accept powers every other week but goddamn they do get handed over way too easy. At least say theyve levelled up or something...

Oh wait... Power Rangers... treating the audience like retards.

Yup, the dialogue and editing I cant facepalm, i feel i need to punch myself in the head instead

Got the reference, sadly I feel your pain, I genuinely found a lot to like in Power Rangers for a lot of years, including disney, but this crap is utterly killing it for me.

As somebody that went to university and learned how to write a story, edit and direct, I must strongly disagree with you there. Its been really shit so far and this clip changes zip.

was that ever a point of discussion? Im pretty sure theres a biblical tablet with those words carved in. Its like... the law or something

I could produce a bowel movement with better writing and dialogue than Saban ever could.

It feels like they're trying to emulate one of those pre-battle banter moments from Gokaiger...and failing.

Does anyone know how the ratings are doing. I know there was something like a 12% drop from ep 1 to 2.

thats weird

And instead we got something like this
