Hypothetically, yeah, I guess it might be possible and maybe even cool if they did it right. But that would also be ridiculously expensive, since they'd have to shoot new Megazord footage as well. Furthermore, some of those Sentai have already been established as Never Seen Before On Earth and the pre-Bioman suits don't look modern enough. So that only leaves Bioman, Liveman, Turboranger and Jetman as viable candidates for adaption. I doubt they'd try it though.

The spandex suits started with Dynaman, which means that "modern suits" would include: Dynaman, Bioman, Changeman, Flashman, Maskman, Liveman, Turboranger, Fiveman, Jetman.

I also believe in the potential incorporation of Gorenger, JAKQ, and Goggle V. The "Marvel Copyright" Trilogy gives me major pause.

I have always believed that Pre-Zyu could be used and I think widescreen movies are viable, but NOT an entire series worth for each entry! There just isn't enough money or time before it gets to be too much. The inevitable product glut is also a factor.

I believe in a mini-series or original movies to service the incorporation needs which would introduce multiple teams at various and strategic intervals. An anthological spinoff is also a good alternative.

In addition, any modern footage of a Pre-Zyu team such as the Gokai Change footage could be used to compensate for the need of available scenes.

Cloth suits and blocky robos are merely asthetic concerns which could be explained away. The idea is that these are older forms which haven't been seen often and aren't well understood.

I've also interpreted the whole "Powers not seen on this planet before!" as reflective towards four of the main Dairanger suits only (since Red was preoccupied at the time)! I envision a past in which Zordon and Alpha prepped for the change to the Thunderzords by inviting "RyuRanger" to Earth back during the time of Mighty Morphin'!

New footage would be necessary for all of this and Super Megaforce proved that they were willing to film Pre-Zyu suits, so there is precedent.

Incorporation can be done, but NOT by totally adaptating every episode of a particular series!
