Hikuro Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 was at walmart picking up some stuff this morning and I stumbled across the toyline.....dear god they're hideous looking toys. The zords are HUGE looking, but the designs are awful to look at. And what ranger toys were there, very unappealing to borderline junk. There wasn't much there to look at though. I'm sure they'll go on clearance by summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JB0 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 Third try's the charm. A competent design that actually looks like a Power Rangers poster! NOW we can complain that "it's morphin time" needs another apostrophe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 If the Megazord looked a lot better I think I would have at least been ok with everything else in this movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electric indigo Posted February 13, 2017 Share Posted February 13, 2017 It went from "Chronicle" to "Transformers knockoff + Cosplay" pretty fast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hikuro Posted March 25, 2017 Share Posted March 25, 2017 well I saw it early this morning, I was the only one in the theater room. Felt to generic, lots of plot holes, poor effects, I was just there to see the cameo with JDF and Amy Joe. On the plus side I got some nifty lil limited edition card for being 154th of 500 to see the movie since yesterday. THAT says a lot....

Dangard Ace Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 I was gonna watch this opening night....then Friday afternoon...and now I'll watch it at home. Thank god I waited to see reviews first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hikuro Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 It's atleast doing better than some of the other movies out right now except for B&TB....cause well, Disney. It's gone up 4% since I last saw the ratings last night that's at least a plus. But yeah I mean there are just some things that bug me that are forgotten...or poorly explored. Like all of these kids have problems that make them trouble makers or emo....but the two who are the weakest of this category of having real honest to god issues are Kimberly and Trini, Kimberly's being the dumbest and most explainable of them all. Then you have all the news going on right now that Trini is the first openly gay ranger. I'm scratching my head cause there wasn't really anything that clearly said she is a lesbian.

kajnrig Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 Are the mecha/monster designs as bad as they look in the trailer? Also, I heard the Power Ranger-ing doesn't actually start until the last 30 minutes or so. Confirmation? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I heard the Power Ranger-ing doesn't actually start until the last 30 minutes or so. Confirmation? So for your first question, yes, the designs are bad, better than the .......93/95 movie I can't remember when that came out. But they're fairly dumb. I mean a Momoth zord with 6 legs? T-rex has tiny arm cannons yet no arms. And when they become a megazord it's like transformers....how did these parts from Dinosaur looking robots become THAT? As for your second question.......yes and yet no. Yes the real fighting doesn't begin until the last 30-35 minutes of the film. Although they do try really hard to morph as there's a stupid catch for them to be able to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoryHolmes Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Just got back from seeing this. It was vapid, cheesy, juvenile. SO GOOD!!!!! It had just enough of the original series while still adding its own touches. The armour and zord designs I can accept (srlsy, who expects realism in a Power Rangers product???) The actors were remarkably effective in their roles, clearly enjoying themselves and doing a good job at the same time. I think my favourite aspect is the editing. It's a 2+ hour long movie that didn't drag in any one place. At no point did I have the urge to hit a non-existent fast forward button, which is quite the rarity for me. Haters are gonna hate, but I enjoyed this film far more than I thought I would've. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TangledThorns Posted March 30, 2017 Share Posted March 30, 2017 Anybody take their kids to watch this? Though I find it super cheesy the TV show on Nick holds my two and a half year old daughter's interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hikuro Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 I was reading an article this morning. Seems when Amy Jo and JDF went to the premiere of the film......JDF in all his attention hogging glory tried to film peoples reactions to his cameo with co star. Security caught him just as this was going down and kicked him out of the theater demanding his cell phone as they felt he was trying to record the film. He had a huge tantrum explaining to them he was a big deal and that he was in the film and just messed it all up for him. Doesn't sound like he was allowed back in, and he never got to see the ending of the movie or the end credit sequence. For someone who keeps telling himself he's a big deal......he's REALLY not a big deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negotiator Posted March 31, 2017 Share Posted March 31, 2017 It was fun. I mean it's power rangers but not as cheesy as you'd think. I got over the zord designs a while ago. I don't think they're good but not gonna complain about it. It's fine. Better than the original movie. All the actors did a good job imo. The original song was a hoot!

CoryHolmes Posted April 2, 2017 Share Posted April 2, 2017 For the first time in I don't know how many years, I went to see a movie twice in the theatres. Power Rangers held up as well the second time as the first. There's one slow, dragging moment near the start of the film but it very quickly got swept away by the pacing. I can't get over how well edited this movie is. Just amazing how well the whole thing was put together. It deserves at least one sequel!
