I will literally take my money out of one pocket and put it in the other. Then put it back in the first one because I was used to it being in that one. And then walk away unphased.
Sorry, but even a a very young child I just didn't care for Power Rangers :P

why
This might be a direct to video movie. I doubt it will be released in theaters.
Holy f**k, YES!
I want this to happen.
Like one of the commentators said, the inner kid in me wants this to happen but given the series' decline in popularity since the 90s combined with a PG-13 film isolating the majority of the show's demographic, this could really suck.
Reminds me on how one of TK's very first fantasy matches was the Power Rangers against Godzilla back in the summer of 2003. Good times.... :(

Who won? Or was there no real general agreement on it?
There was one guy that went "oh hey I remember PR" and that was it (most likely Thanos 6 or EarthBaragon).
I remember in kindergarten that one kid said that the Dragon Zord would totally own Godzilla and I was like "Yeah right. Godzilla is so much cooler".

The Power Rangers are awesome but would crumble before Godzilla.
I watched Power Rangers when I was a child, but don't remember anything.
These days, I don't care for them.
Sentai genre is going to experience a rebirth, something akin to what Pacific Rim did for the kaiju genre.

You should know they aired the show for me when I was a kid as well.
I used to like Power Rangers until Turbo started. I did watch a few episodes of RPM and Dino Thunder, both were pretty good. I have grown to like Super Sentai better since the writing, acting and characters are often better. Not to mention Sentai feels more natural to me when watching it since that's how it's originally made.

f**king do it. f**kING DO IT!
I don't know...
I like Power Rangers (from a nostalgic standpoint), but I don't know how I feel about a solo film. I mean Tommy is awesome, but I would like to see some of the original cast, or it's replacements (Kimberly, Billy, Adam, Aisha, Rocky (Don't judge), Jason, and maybe Tanya, or Zach) included in a film too.

The problem with PR is the fact that they don't have a consistent cast so it's a waste to get emotionally attached to the characters because by the next season, or two they will be replaced. Also I believe the writing for PR has gotten worse over time, but I guess that can't be helped...
Also maybe try to mix up the formula.

Don't judge me but for half a second there, at the beginning, I thought that was real. Took me a second to clue in that the footage of Ian Holm was from The Fifth Element :P
A dark Power Rangers movie could work. I mean Zyuranger (the show that MMPR was based on) had some pretty dark moments. Some of the other Super Sentai shows like Jetman and Ohranger have shown to be dark as well.
I say we have a Pacific Rim crossover. They already did it in the HISHE video ;D
Is Jason David Frank playing the role?
I know a Power Rangers reboot is already in the makes via Kickstarter (http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1953801310/mmpr-a-mighty-morphin-power-rangers-fan-film), but it's not by Saban, so it's quite possible they could get a cease and desist order (because Saban is a ruinous c**t).

Why. I love Rangers but hell they cant make it gritty or serious. It has to be lame with explosions and enthusiastic moves otherwise it will have lost all its flavour. Id like to see it, give the zords a decent run with todags fx but the action needs to remain sentai.

Memories :')
Having a new cast is fine as long they can act. The acting in the first three seasons of MMPR was really bad and it's hard to sit through. I hope they give this movie a decent budget to pull off some amazing special effects. I know the original MMPR movie came out 12 years before Transformers, I think the CG for that movie was bad even back in 1995.
I am praying to the Lorf that this is f**king true:

I never realized how much grunting there was in the film :P
Pacific Rim is inspire by a lot of 70's anime/manga mecha and tokusatsu. Toei in the 70's did both Mazinger Z, Getter Robo, the Japanese Spider-Man TV show and Super Sentai (which is what Power Rangers is adapted from). You can tell that Del Toro is a big nerd of those type of things.

Exclusive: 'Power Rangers' movie reboot characters announced: http://trib.al/S23XsQ8
MORPHENOMENAL!
Jason!!!!! I know, not the original actor obviously but...JASON!!!!!!!!
I guess Tommy won't show up until future sequels. I guess no Lord Zedd until the third movie going by this rate.
I've been a Power Rangers fan since day one, and honestly, Disney taking over was the best thing to happen to it. Yeah, I know, the first few seasons were zero effort colourful shlock made to sell toys, I don't enjoy them any more, but Power Rangers has actually become a pretty legit teen martial arts show. I would be excited about a new film, but... I don't think Saban is capable of making anything worthy of the Power Rangers name.
It's clear to me he has no passion or respect for the show he started and just treats it as an easy paycheck. The series has no future with him beyond mindless kiddy entertainment, and it's such a shame to see him drag it back down to that level.
Anyone whose actually interested in what the show achieved without this c**t at the helm should check out RPM. It's an alternate universe season made for non fans to be able to get into, and it's actually a pretty good show in it's own right, not just 'good for Power Rangers'.
^Actually Disney was killing/gonna kill the Power Rangers franchise back in 2010 so Saban bought it back. Then released "Power Rangers: Samurai" on Nickelodeon, and they've been working with Viacom ever since.

Mindless kiddy entertainment? Your joking right? That's exactly what it is and always has been. I was 6 or 7 years old when it first came on tv in the UK and I loved it. By the time I was 10 I'd grown out of it. Give over.
Yeah. People treat these franchises as some kind of thing that should grow along with them. Power Rangera is and always has been a show designed for children's entertainment.
Super Sentai in Japan was made for kids entertainment too. Something made for kids can be enjoyable for all ages. Transformers and TMNT are no different and they became blockbusters at the box office.

Of course it's kids entertainment, that doesn't mean it has to stay on Might Morphins level. MM up to Zeo were the same meaningless, glittery distractions, but In Space started to show a little effort. Then Disney took over, and the seasons got steadily better. There were some failures, of course, but it just became a better show that adults could enjoy. The writing improved, there was more and more original footage, the acting improved, it was better in every way. Then Saban takes it back. Samurai and Megaforce are massive steps backwards. The show lost almost all the progress it made without him.
Power Rangers Super Patrol Delta is my favorite ever :D
Yeah, SPD was a great season. I love the two parter with the Hannibal Lecter alien who can travel through mirrors. That was actually pretty creepy.
SPD was a good mix on being faithful to Dekaranger while trying to be it's own show. The only good recent PR show currently airing is Dino Charge. I find Samurai/Super Samurai to be decent while both Megaforce & Super Megaforce to be horrible.
Yeah, I found the best seasons are the ones that try to stand alone. I've spoken to die hard Sentai fans who hate PR who actually prefer RPM to Go-Onger. Or however you spell the Japanese season, never could get it right. Plus it had Dillon, who was one of the better 'extra' Rangers.

Kruger, Emporer Gruumm, that badass sentient Lovecraftian warship, the SPD complex Zord, a lot of the Monster of the Week episodes were fairly strong (aforementioned Hannibal alien among them), it's just a really good season in retrospect.
Curious, what are your thoughts on Jungle Fury and Mystic Force? I find those are the most divisive seasons with fans.

I didn't even bother with those :P
Ah, that's a shame, they were fairly good. Mystic Force was a fairly atypical season, and Jungle Fury was a bit too kid friendly, but they had some of the better fight scenes.
After... Alien Rangers I think, I just stopped caring about Power Rangers. I only came back for SPD, because it was awesome :D The rest I've seen, not interested.

Nice, he has that Johnny Yong Bosch vibe to him which I can dig.
So far I am extremely happy with their picks for black and pink ranger(s), but I'm a little iffy on the red ranger. Gonna wait for a [-few-] trailer[-s-] before I decide (and if I'm still iffy then I'll wait for the actually movie to come out).
Honestly though he looks like he should be the blue ranger instead of red.

I just saw the intro to Dino Charge, and... f**k it, now I have to give it a fair shot -.- I did say that Power Rangers has no future with Saban at the helm, so my hopes aren't high, but if he can pull off a season as good as the Disney Era, I will gladly eat my words.
Dino Charge is a pretty good show. Not amazing, but better then most live action kids shows out there in my opinion.
So far, it's an improvement over Megaforce and Samurai, but that's not exactly high praise. The acting is a little better, the music isn't as obnoxious (though it's still in most scenes), and the puns aren't literally every move.
The costumes, though... I don't know which parts are from the Sentai and which are original designs, but this is a step backwards. Megaforce was garbage, but it had some damn good monster costumes. Especially Malkor. These look much cheaper and less detailed. Hell, the Puddies (I don't know what they're calling the mook soldiers this season) are literally wearing pajamas.
Maybe the Anniversary made them cautious with the next seasons budget, or maybe Saban is actually trying to get some original designs. I just hope it improves.

Fingers crossed.
Power Rangers RPM didn't do that, and it was better for it. Every Ranger was important, they weren't just there to back up Red. Red was in the leader position, sure, but the show didn't make him out to be anything other than just a part of a team.
Operator Black did kind of fill the 'omfg so important' role though.

They should have taken more cues of the original design...
Looks more like Divatox, Ritas shitty replacement. That, and how the f**k is Rita in this? She got cured of her Evil way back in In Space, and became the guardian of Light Magic in Mystic Force. She's literally a piece of reality now, holding the good side of magic together.
I know, I know, it's Power Rangers, they f**k up their own continuity almost every time a season crosses over, but this just feels stupid.

She looks very reptilian.
Looks like Scorpina.
Or some sleestak woman-thing.
She may be some dinosaur person that hates that humans that took over or some crap like that.
It's not a bad design, it just doesn't look like Rita.
That, and... Rita isn't really the best choice. I know she's the first, but she was upstaged by Lord Zedd so early in the show. Give him the redesign.

I think the old Rita design is out of touch with today's "realism" angle for most sci-fi movies. She would look rather silly.
I honestly didn't know it was a remake.
And her design can be updated. There's plenty of fan art out there that nails it. All you really have to do is tone down the ridiculous size of her clothes.

So I pretty much believe in the production values at this point, but I've yet to see anything reassuring about the writing.
waaaay to busy design.
And why do they have jock straps? ;D
I cant even tell who has what animal except for the Red Ranger.
Doesn't seem busy to me. Actually seems quite minimal.
They look like melted iron man figures.

Okay Cuckhead, you give Billys chestplate to Kimberly and just shove it all in there, tell her it's for her own good.
I like the designs well enough. I'll probably see the movie for pure nostalgia. The first one back in the early 90s was one of the first movies I was really into when I was young. Now, if they had Ivan Oozr in this movie, I would be really excited!
Jesus f**king Christ, can we have any new movie come out that isn't immediately put on the defensive to justify every instance of the female body? I can't just be cautiously excited that one of my favourite shows is getting a big budget film. No. I have to spend my morning on Facebook explaining to a grown male adult why modest sized chest bumps in a rigid suit for a woman aren't anything sinister, and that feminization of female costume designs don't need to be justified.
For those who care, my full response to this twit.
Seriously, these people are so bored
Okay, now that I'm up and caffeinated, a response more substantive. You drew a comparison between this and Spartan armor from the Halo games. They didn't have breast mounds, so why should these Ranger suits? Actually somewhat legit question, lets answer it.
Spartans are basically man shaped tanks. A bit on the twink side, but they're chunky and cumbersome. That armor is inches thick and full of servos. Trying to find a breast in those would be like finding a dead seal in an iceberg.
Sentai suits are a completely different style. They're supposed to be sleek and form fitting, and the Rangers are a far more athletic kind of fighter. I mean, you're comparing military warfare with a somehwhat down to earth style and martial arts with no semblance of realism.
Now, these new suits are solid. Majority of old Sentai suits are not. They're fabric. Hell, most don't even fit the shoulders right, or crinkle at the hip and back when they move. They're not exactly Kamen Rider, so they're not going to have literal boob socks, and... boy will this ruffle a feather or two... the actresses in those suits are asian. Majority of them are flat chested.
These new suits are rigid, like a shell, so there's room for boobs. I don't know how or when people moved on from bitching about porno posing to the simple existence of a pair of breasts, but you make yourself look like a repressed librarian. You've asked several times 'why do they need to be feminized', as if it needs justification. Well, it doesn't. This is the design they're going with, and by all accounts, it's fairly modest.
Can't believe a grown adult has to have it explained to them why the boobs probably aren't such a big deal just for appearing, but hey, that's my morning it would seem. Seems the PC police are getting closer and closer to Sharia Law every day.

I'm with yea pal. Its so infuriating.
Wait... didn't read but is gender neutral good or bad?
I can remember being attracted to women when I was very young, like 5 yrs old or less. It was a harmless curiosity. I don't understand why suppressing that curiosity would serve any benefit. It's perfectly natural and there's no shame in attraction.
The complaint is that the costumes are not gender neutral. The pink and yellow Ranger have breast shaped chestplates. The guy argued that is is just an excuse to give kids something to perv at, and that Ranger suits have never been feminized before, and when people sent him pictures of female sentai suits with pleated skirts, asshole just backed up to 'well it looks dumb'. Someone else posted a kotaku article about how real armor shouldn't have breast bumps. It's unsafe or something. And completely irrelevant. It's f**king Power Rangers, the armor isn't practical, it's shapely. Almost ever form of fiction that includes rigid, athletic armor has some kind of gendered design to it. FemShep has boob armor. No one complained because Mass Effect came out before this age of insane PC scrutiny.
Back on topic though, I really think someone needs to reach out to Saban over Ritas design. It's not bad, it's just not Rita. Ritas influence was the Wicked Witch of the West. There's none of that here. It doesn't have to be the same, just use that same influence.

He's also an original character for the American show, not something adapted. He would make a better main villain on that quality alone, but he was just a cooler design, and a more competent villain over all.
But if they picked him, purists would bitch that Rita was the original.

For you adults that left the fandom early, that's the son of Rita and Zedd. Yep, they got together. A lot of Zeo (I believe, could be Turbo) was them in a camper van on the moon watching the current villain and arguing like a bunch of trailer trash about how they used to be the villains. Try adapting that for modern times!

wow the casting for this movie has been pretty much been perfect so far.
What's really disappointing about the costumes is that recent movies have proved that full body Japanese style superhero costumes (think Ant-Man, Spider-Man and Black Panther in Civil War) can be accepted by American audiences, but the filmmakers here went the Iron Man/RoboCop 2014 route instead. I hope the Zords/Megazords at least look cool, but they're looking a little too organic and weird looking like the protoforms in Bay's Transformers.

So basically The Breakfast Club meets Chronicle
Can't f**king believe it they made me interested in a Power Rangers movie :o
Everything's so much better than the show and they're taking it seriously. They're making characters relatable, giving everyone an interesting background and personality. I can't explain how much they're getting me into this even when the show was complete cheese, the part where Rita appears and threatens to kill the Rangers was so badass.
So f**king HYPED for this. More hyped than for any Marvel movie, can't believe it.

dat kiss had me rolling haha.
I want to be hopeful. Really, I do. I'm still on the fence, though.
I will say, I'm not sure I like the unmorphed powers. There have been a few seasons where Rangers get some kind of ability outside of 'Rangering up', like super strength or speed or matter mimicry, and I'm not totally against the idea, but I do think it detracts from the Morphing overall. It's not as big a deal to Morph if you're already a damned Saiyan.
Oh well, I'm interested.
so its opposite day?
The few characters that we saw are exactly the complete opposite of what they were in the series... ::)

Being all emo and cutting your hair and being in trouble with the law isnt more anything.
The OG where supposed to be kids that are role models, this angst stuff is actually more kiddie than the original.
It's not angsty of overly dramatic. They're guys with a couple social troubles but that doesn't mean they're emo. Their reactions are pretty tame.
Even if it did go typical 'dark/gritty reboot', I'd be down for that. Maybe if there wasn't a current season, I'd be more wanting a fun Power Rangers movies, but I can watch Dino Charge if I'm obscenely bored wanting that.

It....It....It looks like the Chestburster from Alien Resurrection with a metal jaw with legs....
Hmmm... the more I see of this, the less hopeful I am. I always tried to stay out of the whole 'Sentai vs Power Rangers' scuffle, and I still don't particularly want to watch Sentai, but I've been working through the Kamen Rider series. The more I see of it, the worse Power Rangers holds up. Even the Disney Era stuff. Hell, RPM is taking a hit for me. I loved RPM.
About the only positive thing that I can say Power Rangers has over Kamen Rider is the battles are bigger and flashier. It's not uncommon for a dozen or more people to be fighting, and using some real wire work to have people jump around and send enemies flying. Kamen Rider, on the other hand, is more about duels or small groups with multiple cuts used to show people doing things that would normally need wire work. When they actually do show a Rider doing big leaps or knocking goons away in twos and threes, it's pretty damn cool but doesn't happen often.

Quote If your boyfriend likes to cosplay with you as characters from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers, he may be the one.
That was the case with James and Anthony, a couple who just got engaged while donning the suits worn by the characters of the cult TV show.
James posted the engagement video to Facebook to share the magic moment with friends, but fans of the show quickly caught on and helped make the post viral.
"You guys know that Anthony and I never do anything mediocre, we always have to be over-the-top!" James wrote. "So, with that said, he had to make sure that the next step in our lives was more than special, it had to more Morphinominal!"
Check out the Mighty Morphin moment below.

Could've done without the eyes but that actually looks pretty goofy and funny in a good way, like the original Alpha-5

This design is a bit overdone, I don't think Rita needs to be an undead creature or anything, but the costume is in the right direction and the overall idea is better than anything this movie has brought to the table. Really, the designs for this thing are so uninspired and vile.

That, and the Mastodon looked like some kind of exotic caterpillar or water bear. I really hate these Zord designs. I'm not opposed to the biomechanical look, but they don't look enough like the animals they're supposed to be robotic versions of.
Look at this shit.

looks like their version of the megazord with melted paint thrown on. hopefully this is just what the bigger version looks like, and the normal sized one has a look more akin to the original design.
its like they are actively making it so the OG fans dont like this movie.

QuoteThe Tyrannosaurus doesn't require much retooling. It still retains a lot of the basic shape and silhouette of the animal it's based on. But it does need a bit of tweaking to make it readable as a badass theropod dinosaur. Even if you do give it guns for arms ;) Seriously though, the little guns do make sense if you're retooling a life form into a weapon of war when your Zord doesn't need little arms to carry food or help with mating.
Many are giving the new version of Triceratops a pass because "the original didn't have any legs anyway, it was a tank!"
Ok but...see, that makes more sense than an extra set of legs for no reason. Nonaka and company took the Trike and combined it with elements that were recognizable as a machine of war. Giving something more legs because "it's weird and aliens are weird so that makes it more alien!" is weak.
Pterodactyl/Pterosaur always bothers me because there's a predilection for redesigners to make it literally just a weird looking fighter jet. Now, to be fair, so was Nonaka's Pteranodon in MMPR. But I just think that pterosaurs are too cool and visually interesting to be reduced to literally a less efficient fighter jet.
The Sabertooth is another Zord that doesn't look TOO bad. It still reads as a Sabertooth. But the weird head-guns are kinda unnecessary since it would make the head more awkward and clunky when trying to use its actual fangs in battle. Just an overall more catlike body would be more efficient and visually cool.
And finally...the Mastodon.
Hoo boy.
This is the toy that if you were to hand it to a child (or shit, ANYONE) and ask them what it was, they would more than likely say "I dunno...like a bug or something?" I mean, for Zordon's sake, the damn thing fires a WEB. Also, it has a rail gun for a trunk.
How about, instead, an grabbing/manipulating appendage? You know, LIKE A TRUNK. Make the tusks into guns if you want. In a nutshell, the Mastodon could be a giant mobile command unit. It's big and clunky and thick, so it's basically the bruiser of the team. Rex is the voracious fighter, Triceratops the battering-ram, Sabertooth the quick slicer and dicer, Pterodactyl the air support, and mastodon is the impenetrable wall of ass-kicking.
Also, it doesn't have 8 legs. I don't have to explain why.
What do I know? I'm just a fan
The Tyrannosaurus doesn't require much retooling. It still retains a lot of the basic shape and silhouette of the animal it's based on, but let's for sure turn the ancient hair and horn elephant into an obese caterpillar.
This film has been rated PG-13!!

Well, since nothing the movie or show is coming out with is doing a thing for me, I went looking for something, anything, to help.
Okay, that's pretty cool.
Aaaand ya f**ked it. Oh well, maybe Saban will suddenly become competent and Ninja Steel will be half as good as it's competition. Ultraman Orb and Kamen Rider Ex-Aid look like high art in comparison, and I hate Ex-Aid.
I think a problem this movie is going to have is to try and take itself too seriously. It should just go all out on the camp like the original movie and have cool monsters in rubber suits and makeup.

Power Rangers is one of the cheesiest shows from the 90's era; granted it had its moments....(dino thunder fan)
The film will bomb, no publicity minus the trailer, pics,
Toy commercials....
Still interested in seeing it.

The Lord Zedd era felt like the highest point of the series to me.
I would highly suggest trying it. It was the last season before Saban took it back, and the contrast in quality is stunning. I've even spoken to Super Sentai fans who prefer it to the Super Sentai season it was adapted from.
Second half isn't as strong, though.

So Rita Repulsa has gone from being an intergalactic space witch to being a reject off the tv show Face Off with earth bending skills. Also because Goldar has the name gold in it then he is a walking CGI gold monster. Bravo! 10/10
Cant wait for the sequel hook for her to become the honorary green ranger and Lord Zedd space cloud.
How dare they do something different with muh silly power rangers!1

That's a lot of salt over a kids tv show.

I don't mind her powers, it's the redesign I don't understand. If you have to ditch the Wicked Witch look, then whatever, but why the f**k did you decide to make her look like Divatox? People hated Divatox. She was a worse villain than Rita (sorry, but Rita is a shitty villain).

Real talk, Trakeena was the best villain. I'm still surprised that Saban allowed such a sympathetic villain to-
Spoiler
just go crazy and start killing civilians with suicide bombers
That sounds like a joke, but that was the plot. I wish the video of this was still around. It's kind of amazing for a Power Rangers story.
Spoiler
There's even a slow build up to her 'Knight' and father figure, Villamax, losing faith in her mental stability, and only when it comes to mass suicide bombing of a civilian area does he tell her enough is enough. And the ice cold bitch just carves him up, and he stands there and lets her, because even though she's turned into a monster, he would rather die than draw his sword on his Queen.
And no, he does not get resurrected. He's just f**king dead.
Heavy shit.
I personally, loved this trailer, as well as perhaps more than the previous one. I'm simply hyped. The humor looks legit too. The only part I was concered of was when they're like skeptic towards Zordon... that was set up for a sublime moment, not a time for laughs. Still looking forward very much :D

Well, it had to happen eventually. A bad Neo-Saban intro. And they were doing so well.
I just watched the trailer, and I'm embarrassed to say it actually looks awesome, in a dumb fun way. I'll probably go see it. Hope it's successful enough to get a sequel with Ivan Ooze.

yeah cos they looked so functional in the series...
Well, they looked like robots that should move around. The designs here have that ultra sleek pseudo-organic look, like they're big living beings that just happen to be shiny and have primary colours. Honestly, they look like the giant animals that turn into Zords from Wild Force.
That doesn't bother me, but I would prefer something like the pictures that Genocyber posted.
Power Rangers Production Notes (http://www.scifijapan.com/articles/2017/02/12/sabans-power-rangers-2017-production-notes-and-images/)
The whole organic vision is just the wrong way to go about Power Rangers. Sure the tech is alien, but it just does not mesh well with giant robots and battle armor. If we can have a proper Iron Man without him looking like a rainbow colored T-1000 then we should have more grounded designs.
No, it's better this way.

Robots are burned as hell with the Transformers movies. A more organic look makes it stand out and not to feel like a repetition, also dinosaur-robot-alien technorganic hybrid makes more sense than just having robots in the shape of dinosaurs.

Aesthetics are to taste, I guess. Personally, I like the bulkier look. Most of the suit actors were surprisingly spry for something that looked so cumbersome. Maybe you'd prefer something like Jungle Fury, where the Zords were a lot sleeker and agile.
Granted, it's still bulkier than you'd like.

https://youtu.be/RkxKox2p5ck (https://youtu.be/RkxKox2p5ck)
I really enjoyed the movie. It's not perfect, specially because of the final battle, that could have been more exciting and exhilarating (music sort of screwed the feel up), but they went the extra mile for character moments, all the emotional and teamwork aspects feel authentic and the movie knew how to end in a high note. It's inspirational.
I feel like some current superhero movies could learn a couple of things from this movie, specially the X-Men films.
8.5/10, I'm glad someone made a movie like this :-)
Movie has bombed.
Yeah, that's a shame.
I'm still glad they did it :D
Almost everything I've heard about it (from sources I actually give a f**k about) have been surprisingly reassuring. Good, likeable characters, plenty of time spent developing their character arcs, good villain, the colours aren't messed with in post production, pretty much everything I was worried they'd f**k up was done well.
The harshest critique I've heard was that it was 'just okay'. f**k, I liked Battleship, I'm sure I'll enjoy this.

Well put it this way, I doubt those 6 sequels are happening now (I don't understand why studios make these absurd plans before a films even released, they never ever learn),
Pacific Rim wasn't that huge a success and here they are making a sequel
Too early to judge but why would I tell that to you again
So I was forced to go see this again yesterday with the lady and her kid brother and I actually really enjoyed it the second time around. I thought the cast was actually pretty good (the lead reminded me of a young Chris Pine) and it had some fun character moments in it. I dug the design work. Looked a lot better than the show imho.

Yes.
PACIFIC RIM 2 is made ONLY because of China.
WARCRAFT 2 is made ONLY because of China.
Warcraft sequel is not confirmed and Pacific Rim took a long time and much pestering to actually get the green light.
You might get a Power Rangers sequel, but I suspect it will go down the same route the TMNT reboot franchise went.
Hubbs has a point.

I hate the TV series. I never was a fan of the old Power Rangers episodes or the 1995 movie. I think those were too stupid.
This 2017 version is more serious and gritty. Better, in my book.
There was nothing serious or gritty, it was super generic stuff all around. They basically stripped any uniqueness this type of story has.
To each its own.
I disagree with you. This Power Rangers 2017 was better than the chessy old power rangers.
If you like this style cool, but the script is worst than the old show. Like i said, everything was super generic and ends basically had nothing to do with the rest of the movie when it came to the power rangers part.
It was like two different things splashed together.
The original show had them specifically seek out "teenagers with attitude." That's only a few super massive guns and gratuitous pouches away from being about as generically 90s as you can get.

What I think this film made its misstep is making Power Rangers into a coming of age story. The personal lives of the Rangers were never all that important to know. Had I made the movie I would have approached the material more as an epic sci fi with them already as friends who hang out together. No need for long introductions. It would have a magic vs technology angle of Rita being a sorcerer conjuring up monsters and spells, and Zordon being the scientist building weapons and robots to fight back with. Someone like Guilmero Del Toro could have really brought out the fantastical qualities that sentai has for it.
I take it you never watched the Disney Era.

I'm not salty, why would I be salty? I don't care about this film, I'm just pointing out its not done very well.
They already said they had
6 sequels planned for this franchise. But judging by how this first flick has gone, I highly doubt that's gonna be happening anymore.

This movie is a flop.
Still, Lionsgate is a small studio. Maybe they make a sequel because they don't know better or other options. They don't have any franchise.

define mess?
cause this movie spent most of it's time teaching these people to kung fu fight and they end up having a 20 second fighting scene before moving on and spending the rest of the time on zords that had basically zero development. THAT'S a mess. Zords almost came out of nowhere and the Megazord ACTUALLY came out of nowhere.

I think you have A LOT of nostalgia for the TV Series from 1990s.
That TV series from 1990s is very bad. Too cheesy. Too cheap. I suppose you were a little kid. I never grow up with them. I saw that awful series recently.
For me, I could see a trilogy of epic Power Rangers movies covering the Rita and Lord Zedd seasons. Since this is a long post I am spoiling it.
Spoiler
First movie- Rita's prison is broken from Zordon becoming too weak to maintain it anymore. Is under orders by Lord Zedd to conquer this world for him. Sepcifically targets Angel Grove to find Zordon. Rangers are recruited and a big battle is waged destroying the city, but the people are saved. The monster fought is Goldar, but looks more like how he did in the show. Final act is Tommy turning evil and battling the MegaZord to a draw. Rita cuts her losses and drags Tommy away to fight another day.
Second movie- Lord Zedd arrives with his army, banishes Rita to earth as a mortal who becomes a reluctant ally of the Power Rangers. She and Zordon work together and help forge stronger megazords with a combination of magic and technology. Tommy becomes Lord Zedd's lieutenant and the Dragonzord leads his army to Earth. Each of the Rangers zords split up and repel the monsters across the globe. Tommy and Jason have a duel which breaks the dark spell put over him by Rita. A final monster is sent down to finish them off, which would be Silver Horns. The Dragonzord combines with the new MegaZord and beats this monster. Lord Zedd discovers the location of Serpentara and leaves to retrieve it, vowing to come back and finish them off.
Third movie- Time has passed, Rita has settled down living as a mortal. The Rangers don't know if Lord Zedd will be back, but must also move on with their lives. Many of them will be leaving Angel Grove to study abroad and take careers. Tommy decides to stay behind and protect Zordon saying goodbye to the others. Lord Zedd finds Serpentara buried beneath the surface of Mars and activates it. Zordon senses this but is unable to get in contact with any of the Rangers anymore due to them leaving behind their power coins. Tommy seeks out Rita for help, and she explains the origin of Lord Zedd of how he came to be and what Serpentara is. Tommy gets in his Dragonzord and makes his stand to fight off the giant serpent but it gets destroyed effortlessly. Lord Zedd finds the location of Zordon and finds Rita helping to guard him. He captures them both as trophies along with the power coins. Things look hopeless, but the Rangers zords are still hidden away. The military launches a global strike against Serpentara but none stand a chance against it. Casualties build as the Rangers are forced to reunite and find the hidden location of their zords. Zedd tries to use the power coins in an effort to blow up the earth in one strike with Serpentara's mouth beam but is unable. Zordon reveals the power coins won't work for Lord Zedd because they only served to release the power already inside of the user, rendering them useless. The Rangers are able to activate their zords and do battle with the giant serpent and repel it back, slicing its head off in a epic display. Lord Zedd retreats to his base on the moon to rally his army together but is confronted by the Rangers who teleport there to save Zordon. Lord Zedd combats them and beats them all effortlessly one by one, displaying his superior martial arts. He runs Tommy through with his staff "killing him". Rita then makes a distraction by using her remaining magic to blast Lord Zedd and divert his attention away from the Rangers. Zordon is dying since he is removed from his tube, and makes a choice to use the last of his energy to restore Tommy. Lord Zedd cuts Rita down, and turns to face Tommy who now transforms into the White Ranger. They all charge at Lord Zedd and overwhelm him. The White Ranger makes the killing blow slashing through his staff and through his chest. Zedd refuses to die like this and strikes the ground with his staff, causing a massive earthquake before collapsing. His army retreats with the base crumbling. The Rangers escape but are forced to abandon Rita and Zordon who sacrificed themselves to save them.
The dust clears on Earth with the Rangers making one final goodbye to eachother. Tommy still feels he must stay behind to guard whats left of the base. The final moments are him staring at the empy power tube wondering where to go next. Suddenly a voice is heard from the darkness as a little robot is activated. His name is Alpha, and offers his service. Tommy tells him they need to be ready for the next battle ahead.

Mess as in not as competent as what you just described. I love Power Rangers, but the early seasons were not well written.

Im not discussing the budget or the effects, specially effects back on those days, im discussing the structure.
This conversation happens all the time when people discuss movie version of cartoon. We see people claim that the cartoon or show was way more horrible than what the movie put out. And it seems you have the opposite of nostalgia, whatever that is.
Transformers Dark of the Doom was ten times more stupid than the episode it was based on. The Ultimate Doom even had proper physics of what would happen if Cybertron suddenly appear near earth.
If this move would've followed proper power range story structure it would've been way better. Instead they only used the beginning and skipped all the way to the end for some reason. But i guess it doesnt matter cause most people seem to be ok with the movie.

What i described was the opposite of competent. I find it extremely unlikely that the early season were worst than the what we saw on the movie. Everything was properly introduced. Or at least had some explanation along the way. The Megazord HAD NONE in the movie. It just happens and freaking Billy gives it a name because no one knows what's happening. It's the stupidest thing ever. "Hey, we turned into a big robot. Let's call it a Megazord cause why not?"
How did this actually make it to the the final draft?

And you would be mistaken. The show was practically made on the fly out of disjointed footage from multiple shows. It did get it's act together later, but season 1 had all the issues of a poorly written show. Elements were poorly established and often changed, characters were 1 dimensional, plots just lurched forward randomly and resolutions were usually very abrupt and not satisfying.
It was a badly written show.

Can you give some examples? Cause i have given a couple of why i think the script of this movie was bad but you never got specific. All you say in general stuff.
Your not understanding. I'm not contesting what you said about the movie. It could be as bad as you say or worse. I'm talking about the general writing quality of season 1, and I did give detail.

If you want specific examples of that, you're essentially asking for an episode to be chosen at random and described. If you want one off the top of my head, the Green Ranger introduction, which was a 4 parter, had the Zords destroyed, which was treated very seriously, but in the finale, they just popped out of the ground, fully repaired.
That was just how story elements were handled. Brief, slapdash and unsatisfying. A generic movie like your describing shows more competency.
Big failure in China: https://www.forbes.com/sites/scottmendelson/2017/05/12/box-office-were-probably-not-getting-a-power-rangers-sequel/#754e4cad52e4
Too bad since I still loved the movie, definitely on my top 10 of superhero movies :D
Focus on one good stand alone movie, learn your lessons Hollywood.
Also, stop trying to appease the SJW crowd, learn your lessons Hollywood.
I think it was good and it was standalone.
lol wait? hold on, there are people that actually think the original MMPR was better than this? Nostalgia can be quite powerful, i guess.

I agree.
Nostalgia is too powerful.
I saw the film a week after it was released. It sucked. It was boring and dumb. I'll happily choose the original MMPR over this any day of the week.
So I finally saw it. I'm a huge fan who was pretty skeptical about the film, and my partner has no love for the show whatsoever, but I've poked and prodded him with various Power Rangers stuff, and he actually enjoyed the Twitch Presents showing, and he wanted to do a drinking game. Drink for reference, drink for cringe, double drink if something was really good.
We were f**ked up by the mid way point. I vaguely remember him going on a rant about why this gets to be so good when the Warcraft movie was so garbage and something about Blue being a better character than Hermoine Granger. So, we were not exactly in an objective state of mind, and we're kind of worried that if we watch it again sober, we'll find out it wasn't this amazing experience we remember.
Still, seeing this review was pretty reassuring. We'll get to it eventually. I will say that when the Zords charged to the theme of the old movie, I legitimately felt happy, alcohol aside.

Doesn't matter how long you've been awake. However long it is, Power Rangers 2017 still won't be a good movie.
I believe it.
I personally enjoyed the PW 2017 movie. I was a massive PR fan as a little kid so maybe i'm a little bias.
I loved it too.
And I'm not much of a fan of the original PR.
