But Megaforce and Super Megaforce are only "homages" to MMPR in the sense that they take the very bare basics and apply them to the show hoping it's enough to tide over the long time fans.

My MMPR homage isn't a Juice Bar, it isn't a Blue Ranger nerd, and it isn't cheesy stories. A lot of those are being billed as both MMPR homages AND as staples for Power Rangers going forward. They can't be both - either they're a homage or their a staple, but claiming their both is an incredibly lazy way to try and tie an anniversary season that has been anything but an anniversary to the 20 years that came before it.

The production of the show has failed to really capitalize on the MMPR nostalgia. You want to capitalize on it you need to do more than mention Zordon in passing, and use past suits in a half-hearted attempt at an anniversary because Sentai footage calls for it.

Kyoryuger's base story line - the dinosaurs were extinct millions of years ago because of a great evil. That great evil is trying to be revived to destroy the world now.

The base plot is perfect to tie in to MMPR.

I'm sick of MMPR too - but seeing as Saban keeps trying to convince us that if we loved MMPR we'll love Super Megaforce and they're failing, this is their chance to REALLY have a cool throw-back to the only season they ever cared about - MMPR.
