Didn't mind the morph at all, I thought it was excellently done. At any rate, I do like it better than the Samurai ones. The backflips seem to be a thing of Power Rangers adaptations, they remind me greatly of SPD and Dino Thunder.

I liked it. The sequence was pretty lengthy, but so was the one in Samurai and that wasn't used very often. The use of the Japanese cards was incredibly lazy, but unlike seeing "Zyuranger" in MMPR or "UAOH" in Zeo repeatedly I can explain it away in my head (for now at least) since the cards did come from a guy named Gosei.
As for the acting - so far they seem better than the Samurai cast and no worse than the average Power Rangers actor. That's good enough for me.

The "go go! *insert team name*" does kind of suck, and dang Saban...you must relly love the MMPR theme song. I was hoping for a new one myself.

I still stand by that this season will be wonderful. I'm just sad that the Gosei Morpher doesn't work like the toy we got.

Back flips are always necessary.

illogical its more logical its easier er to keep filming continuity with stock footage by using the Dic-o Cards due to its cheap and easier, then editing every bit of sentai stock footage to make the cards look american.

I don't mind the Japanese cards beeing used too much. We have never had a toy that matched up 100% to the show models so that doesn't perturb me too much. Also we know that the mentor figure is called "Gosei" so seeing that on the cards makes a certain amount of sense.
But what is bugging me is the red ranger. He seems to be stuck on "distant and confused" (kinda like how I felt Kamen Rider Wing Knight was stuck on "angry and grouchy") and... I swear it looks like they either overdubed his voice, or just did really bad ADR work on it, because his voice doesn't seem to match up to his body at all.

Is using the Japanese cards lazy? Yeah, kinda. It's obviously been done for cost though. The final bit, with the cards behind their heads, is stock footage from Goseiger. Sure they could make new scenes but its just quicker and cheaper. They'd have to do it for all of the Mech summons and finishers too. Might as well have some continuity instead of constantly switching from the American to Japanese versions.
It's kind of like Octoroo, how in Samurai the American footage version had a mouth and the Japanese footage version didn't. Cutting from one to the other is far more distracting then just sticking with one. |
