And yeah, I forgot about Digimon (never a fan). But it's a lot harder to reanimate angelic monsters (even on such a cheap ass show as Digimon) than it is to write out a minor component of the Sentai version that is in no way visually referenced in any of their suits or Zords.

So it looks like Saban will be trying to bring back the MMPR mojo by setting Megaforce in a high school and cast it with five teenagers, just like the original MMPR. Btw, I wonder if the name Megaforce is a homage for the sentai series Megaranger, which was also set in a high school as I recall.

I get a very TF: Animated vibe from what we are given so far in that it is a new show but has elements of MMPR season 1.

- 5 teenagers who become superheroes dressed in red, black, pink, yellow, blue due to bad guys invading
- Wise mentor figure with robotic assistant

Very MMPR, no?

Because then it would mean that Saban would have to reshoot every scene of the Goseigers with their Tensouders with the Mega Force Rangers with the modified morpher. I don't like the Tensouder either, but that's just how it is.

This is what bothers me the most about Mega Force; Saban's trying way too hard to make this feel like Mighty Morphin' like they're doing with Samurai.

They really need to make things more akin to In Space or Time Force.
Those two series are so great! MMPR just isn't a good series, no matter how you slice it...

I just hope this series is better than Samurai, and that they bring David Yost back as the Mighty Morphin' Blue Ranger.

I just hope these actors are better than Samurai's.

Because the solar cell morphers were beyond Baytarded
Although they did leave elements of the sentai morpher in that morphology sequence
