Dino Thunder btw is super overrated, the first half of the season where they are establishing and setting everything up is great but there is basically no pay off and it all falls apart in the second half of the show, especially with how awkward some of the footage adapting becomes.

Nah, DT is not perfect, but it is by far the best of the Disney era and the only PR series they did to be good.

Better than RPM and Jungle Fury?

I'm afraid I'm gonna have to disagree, I think DT is easily one of the worst seasons done by Disney, who I personally feel had some consistently awesome seasons, much more so than Saban.

I'll add SPD and Mystic Force to that too.

DT wasn't bad, but it wasn't great either, there was nothing exceptional about it. It just was there, not incredibly memorable, not very exciting, not much really new to be shown.

And if you need some other justification just remember that the "fake" AU movie riders from Ryuki have just as much screen time as good old "fake" Abyss did. Ryuki's movies, which are alternate timelines featuring new characters, are just like the AU episodes of Decade Abyss appears in.

Why?
Why should people let it go? Prototypes mean nothing or else Kiva fans would all have Saga in hand by now.
Why is it suddenly taboo to have an issue over their decision?

I already know it's overrated. I just need to rewatch it because apparently I'm wrong in liking Ethan over everyone else

Oh hell nah. SPD runs circles around Dino Thunder.

Anyway, on topic concerning Hurricane Red: Think we'll get an alternate head with an opened visor and mouth plate?

Mystic Force was great, I'm planning on giving SPD another go, it didn't live up to the hype in the past. Loved it as a kid though.

But yeah DT is just bland MMPR nostalgia.

Because of the actual 13 riders plus alternative from Ryuki:

Ryuki + Dragredder & Survive
Knight + Darkwing & Survive
Zolda & Magnugiga
Raia & Evildiver
Ouja & Venosnaker
Gai & MEtalgelas
Tiger
Verde
Ryuga & Dragblacker

have ALL been release already. Odin & Goldphoenix are releasing in July and Scissors & Volcancer not long after that.

Femme & Blancwing, Alternative & Pshycorogue, Imperer & Gigazelle, Biogreeza, and Destwilder are literally the only things without solid release dates. 3 riders and 5 monsters. And all of them have been seen, all have been featured in magazines for 2013-14 release, and Bandai does not stop releasing characters from a series once they're this far in anymore. Yes, they did that with Kiva and Agito, and older shows from an older part of the line. They simply do not do that anymore. They don't stop halfway thorugh on riders or sentais for that matter. They finish teams now, and in terms of Ryuki they have released a rider and or a monster consistently for the last 2 years every month to 2 months.

So your "it's just like Kiva" argument is completely invalid based on the release information on Ryuki riders so far. It's ridiculous to keep up this front about Abyss when it literally has no bearing on any of the other Ryuki figures being released or not.

It's not taboo, you can have whatever opinion you want. But in this particular case you just come off as hating, there's no logical reason to be upset about Abyss who has just as much "right" to exist as Femme, Ryuga, and Verde. Considering 2 of the 3 I just named DO exist it kind of validates my point.

Scissors is being released on his own, so Volcancer is still unaccounted for.

My apologies. But the point still remains that nearly everything in Ryuki is accounted for at this point. I knew they weren't being released together but Volcancer can't be far behind.

Never saw RPM. Disney stopped airing PR during Jungle Fury, which I found to be pretty awful from what little I did see of it. The guy they got to play Rio was not only butt ugly, but he couldn't act for ****.

SPD is not horrible, but it is the Disney villains that ruin the show. 70's Toku Reject Disco Skeletor was a terrible villain in the design department and is what ultimately ruined the show for me. Now to be fair, I was not all that impressed with DekaRanger back then, so I will admit I did not give SPD a fair chance in the long run. It is one of the seasons I plan to visit some day on Netflix and give another shot to due to Linkara's review of it.

Mystice Force, on the other hand, was just a glorified mess. The acting was quite bad. The costumes were pathetic. The pink ranger should never be a DJ. The music was exceptionally horrifying (rap and PR do NOT mix) and every time it had that one stupid theme play, I kept picturing Anakin and Amidala in the field of flowers from AotC. Finally, the way they adapated the Infershia Gods was just pathetic. I know I should not compare the adaptation, but it felt like the threat of them had been removed. However, it did not help that they were cutting down episodes in half, making the footage look like it was on fast forward or something.

BTW, Kira trumps ANY Disney ranger!!!
