[Blade Raider]

And now for my rant..

Shocker's and Zanygack's master plan is to make the Big Machine (lamest super weapon name EVER) because...evil? Okay, fine. To make said weapon, they have to combine their resources. Makes sense enough. So why do they have to involve Sentai and Riders before it's complete? Matter of fact, why are they on Earth for this? They could've easily made the Big Machine off planet.

Then part of that plan is pitting Sentai and Riders against each other. Admittedly not a bad plan, but really dumb when they don't even have to be on Earth to achieve their goal. And why would they think GokaiRed and Decade would trust villains they themselves killed? Wouldn't it have made more sense for GokaiRed to be tricked by Rider villains and vise versa with Decade.

AND WHY ARE THESE VILLAINS EVEN ALIVE?! EXPLAIN MOVIE! EXPLAIN!

Then there's GokaiRed's and Decade's plan. GokaiRed and Decade knew all along to the villains are trying to trick them. Admittedly this explains away some things, like Marvelous being able to beat the 7 Legendary Showa Riders. That said, why play along? GokaiRed and Decade could've easily just summoned the other heroes to fight. And why did Marvelous send Joe back in time to get a fake AkaRanger to fight a fake Rider 1 in a fake battle to fake out villains that shouldn't even be alive? Why is there even time travel in this movie? Is it not confusing enough?!

And who told GokaiRed and Decade about this plan? DiEnd? Wait, DiEnd knew GokaiRed's and Decade's plan all along too. Why was Joe left out? I can understand at the first when Marvelous is trying to cut his ties to the Gokaigers and make it believeable, but there's at least 15-20 mins of Joe being Decade level emo in front of DiEnd. That would be the time to tell Joe the plan DiEnd, you douche. A third of this movie is the worst kind of padding because DiEnd is a douche.

And then there's DiEnd having a sudden case of villainy. Again I have to admit that I love the idea of DiEnd being a villain. BUUUUUUT his motivation makes him sound like a kindergartener that didn't get picked for a game. You knew the plan, why are you so butthurt about it?! I've already said it, this a convoluted mess of a movie full of flawed logic, plot holes, and grade A bull shit. What is so damn hard about keeping these films SIMPLE?!



Also, there are huge missed opportunities in this movie. This movie needed Stag Buster in it. Why? Because Kamen Rider J is in the movie. There is fun to be had there. Like when the monsters grow, Kamen Rider J could be getting ready to grow only to have Beet J Stag step in front of him saying "I will handle this." Then Kamen Rider J would grow only to have Beet J Stag in a borrowed Buster Hercules stand in front of him again.

Of course that would require Shoji Yonemura to watch Sentai. Hell, I don't even think he watched Decade.
