Re: Power Rangers: Samuraii had such high hopes for this season but as of right now sammurai is second only to overdrive as the worst pr series ever

Re: Power Rangers: SamuraiBut it was Turbo that almost killed the series. Operation Overdrive did fairly well for a Disney series. But what I meant by how I'm bugged by them being cheap with this is that they're making a second Samurai season called "Super Samurai" by making both be only 20 episodes long each, and then dragging them both out with reruns to make them run for an entire year each. That's why the Samurai has been so slow this year. It's only 20 episodes long (not counting the TV specials) and won't even have a proper conclusion. ![]() "When there's gold feathers, punch behind you!!"
“Critics who treat 'adult' as a term of approval, instead of as a merely descriptive term, cannot be adult themselves. To be concerned about being grown up, to admire the grown up because it is grown up, to blush at the suspicion of being childish; these things are the marks of childhood and adolescence. And in childhood and adolescence they are, in moderation, healthy symptoms. Young things ought to want to grow. But to carry on into middle life or even into early manhood this concern about being adult is a mark of really arrested development. When I was ten, I read fairy tales in secret and would have been ashamed if I had been found doing so. Now that I am fifty I read them openly. When I became a man I put away childish things, including the fear of childishness and the desire to be very grown up.” -- C.S. Lewis
Re: Power Rangers: Samuraiyeah but atleast turbo had a theatrical movie
the only thing overdrive had going for it was the once a ranger two parter ![]()
Re: Power Rangers: SamuraiThat's still not saying much, considering that it not only got poor reception, but also botched up the continuity as set up by MMPR-Zeo. That movie alone has more continuity headaches than Clash of the Red Rangers has. Not to mention that it introduced many of the stupid ideas that were carried over into the Turbo series.
Which was still a million times more enjoyable than Turbo or its movie. "When there's gold feathers, punch behind you!!"

Re: Power Rangers: Samuraidude do you have any idea about how much mythical lore there is on phantom cars or cursed vehichles (which they did later play on with lightning cruiser and storm blaster)
and to be fare the sentai turbo was based on was the slaps stick series of super sentai so turbo didnt really have much to work with ![]()
Re: Power Rangers: SamuraiExcept that these cars aren't like that. These are high-tech sportscars like something out of the MTV generation. There were zero fantasy elements about them. That's the real world reason, not the in-fiction reason. They still never explained what happened to the Zeo powers since those were said to always be getting stronger. I am aware of the supposed cut scenes of Divatox defeating the Zeo powers in the Turbo movie, but even that's really stretching it considering how the Zeo powers obviously outclass her. What was so bad about Operation Overdrive? I found it to be... average, at best. "When there's gold feathers, punch behind you!!"

Re: Power Rangers: Samuraitwo words
treasure hunters ![]() and it was explaind a little bit in forever red of how the zeo powers were still operational ![]()
Re: Power Rangers: SamuraiAnd? That's what Boukenger was themed around. Got something against archaeology? I know they were still operational. I said that Turbo never said what became of the Zeo powers. Since the Zeo powers still worked, there was no in-universe need to change over to the Turbo powers.

Re: Power Rangers: Samuraii have nothing against archaeology
dino thunder was one of my favorite series its just the actors didnt sit right with me and treasure hunters arent so much archaeologists as the are excavaters and come on treasure hunting power rangers thats ridiculus ![]()
Re: Power Rangers: SamuraiWhat's Dino thunder to do with this? Paleontology isn't the same thing. Archaeology deals with man-made materials of the past, not dinosaurs. It wasn't "treasure hunting", it was "archeaology". They were hunting artifacts, not goods. Mr. Hartford was an archaeologist. Mack fantasized himself as being an Indiana Jones-styled hero, and Indy was an archaeology professor. In fact, the early title of the series before it was finalized as "Operation Overdrive" was "Power Rangers: Relic Hunters" (which Flurious made a nod to in one episode, "Well, it looks like we'll all relic hunters today."). And all those times in past series when the Rangers were looking for items of value weren't treasure hunting? I'd say that the search for the Light of Orion counts. As do the quests for he Zeo Subcrystals. If this bothers you so much, how are you going to handle a Gokaiger adaptation? It's themed entirely around pirates. ![]() "When there's gold feathers, punch behind you!!"
