Powerman's right if this movie doesn't bomb like hell we'll just get more MMPR movies at best they'd eventually change the characters in the suits.

Anyone thinking They'll make Zeo,Turbo,In Space whatever movies are deluding themselves.

Fan projects like Mortal Kombat Legacy and Street Fighter: Assassin's Fist also focus only on the first parts, but that's because that's as far as they get before they're cancelled or they take forever to continue.

The general public didn't know shit about Guardians of the Galaxy or Suicide Squad, but Guardians did great and Suicide Squad's fans both old and new still defend the movie regardless. People not knowing about the later bits of a franchise doesn't stop it from happening. As for changing the characters in the suits, doing so past Rocky and his group and not just making it Zeo would be stupid. People bitch when they change whoever Ironman or the Hulk is without even reading the comics, so it would be worse if a movie most people watch just chucked aside a kid to be the same Red Ranger each 2 or so movies if it's the same suit.

The reason Hasbro and others focus on the first installment when adapting it is obviously because it's best to start at the beginning. The reasons why they don't go farther are different and varied depending on the quality of the adaptation. How much are the Michael Bay movies like G1 right now? (Autobots being hunted, no Autobot City, no mention of Unicron, Quintesson, Primus, so on). How similar is IDW's Transformers, now that Hasbro is going all shared universe with G.I. Joe and M.A.S.K.?

Maybe I won't get my Time Force movie, but for this film to not make it to Zeo at the very least, it would have to be too shitty to continue on. Or are we forgetting that series like James Bond, Star Trek and Dr. Who thrive all the while getting new characters and actors regularly?
