Why do I get the feeling JDF is behind this?

Well it is the only part of MMPR worth owning.

It's a money-grab pure and simple. You watch, they're going to release White Light next. And charge the same despite it being only three episodes.

Is the title "Green with Evil" for the digitally edited stripe on the helmet? Someone tell them they forgot to change the morpher ;)

What if people don't want the full series though? In my opinion Green with Evil is the only part of MMPR that is good. I'd sooner own five episodes I'd actually watch than like fifty episodes with forty five I'd never touch.

And perhaps someone wants to own a part of the show but can't afford a full season DVD?


Kinda sad that it is...


Yeah. Now I just have to hope it doesn't get cut.

But the season sets, like MMPR Season 1 part 1, part 2 etc. Those are the same price as this thing which only has 5 episodes :confused: With the other releases you at least get more episodes.

Nine dollars is nothing though, and I'd rather pay for what I'll watch than the same amount for a bunch of extra stuff I wont watch.

I'd rather buy a movie with 2 hours worth of bonus features I may never watch for $15 than a barebones movie for the same price. I may not watch them, but at least I got my money's worth.

Also - who cares about the price? This is perfect for fans who loved the "Green with Evil" saga but didn't care for the rest of Season 1 of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I'm that guy!

When you put it like that, it seems a lot less like Shout! Factory is just hooking JDF's ego up to a bike pump.

And I'm not talking about lesser known films, I'm talking about ones like Sunset Blvd, The Big Sleep, Key Largo, Asphalt Jungle, Night of the Hunter, White Heat, The Big Heat, etc.

There's a reason for that. When they had stuff like that their customers didn't watch. They don't renew content or seek licenses when they know that few people want it. Most of the random junk they get that no one watches they only have because it's packaged by content companies with things they do want to buy. Many things, like Star Wars, aren't available because the owners have no interest in selling the streaming rights.

Even Hulu won't have most of the movies you listed and they specialize in old stuff they can get the rights to for cheap. Netflix streaming isn't supposed to have every movie every made. That's just impractical. Netflix as more quality movies and TV shows than any person can watch. Also, try other regions. Tons of content outside the US.

These companies talk big and want us to stream movies and such nowadays rather than buy them, but they don't want to provide them to companies to stream them. I miss the days of Video Factory and Blockbuster when I could walk into any one of them and find nearly every movie in existence there to rent. Nevertheless, of course JDF can afford to only be paid $1 for an episode of PR, he is gouging his fanbase of their money instead.

Streaming is all about licensing, which makes is bullshit because I should have access to see any movie I want whenever I want. I cannot even rent these movies because the only places left to rent movies are Red Box and they only carry the big boobied explosion movies. I cannot rent classics from Red Box.



Honestly, I have to say I am a bit disappointed in JDF. The man talks about how much he loves the fandom. How he would do a Power Rangers episode for $1 just to please the fans, as the fans are the reason he is where he is to this day. Yet, he is going to be at Denver Comic Con next weekend, and he is charging $40 for an autography. FOURTY FUCKING DOLLARS!!! Walter Jones and David Yost want $20, which is still a rip off, especially from a person who wasn't even on the show for two full seasons.
