Power Rangers Dino Thunder: Before it Began
... But before that, I wanna talk about the
lead up
to this show, actually!
"Before it Began"
was a bonus feature on one of the
Dino Thunder
DVDs, and was one of our first peaks into what would become
Power Rangers SPD.
The setup involves Ethan and Kira managing to summon a fragment of the Morphin' Grid, which in turn shows them visions of the future and the next season of the show.
Like alot of early previews for toku shows, there are some rather notable differences between what we see here and what'd end up in the final product. Most obviously there's the stand-in voice actors, but there are other details too like the basic plot setup and one of the elite mooks being voiced.
Having already been a diehard
Rangers
fan, getting me to watch the show wasn't exactly difficult. But alot of the preview really did intrigue me. The Power Rangers as cops(which was last seen during
Time Force
), the promise of aliens now being common place, and as noted by the characters themselves, those really cool new Zords!
But the thing that really got me excited for this upcoming season was the early commercials for it...
One that would air all of the time both before the show began airing as well as during its early episodes was one that gave us a much closer look at the world and its cast, as well as stating that the show took place in the year 2020, when in reality as soon as the story started it was established to take place in the year 2025. I guess someone in the writer's' room felt at the last second that tacking on another five years would make alot of the stuff seen in the show alot more plausible sounding.
Regardless, the general vibe and aesthetic as presented not just in that trailer, but in alot of the early promos got me super excited for what was to come, and needless to say, I was not disappointed. But more on that when we start watching the show proper.
Also, big shout out to this fan made trailer I found while searching. It's very cool!
