How would you guys feel about the possible plans for 15 prequel Rangers shows? Not done by Disney but a new company since the US didn't start adapting till Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 1.

Also all Zord fights and Morphed Uniform battle fights plus bad guy lair segments would be left intact with new US side plots and new US series plots?

We could keep a Rangers type show on the air till well after 2020 this way and people could see the generations prior to Mighty Morphin.

I think he is talking about adapting the Sentai Footage from before Zuyranger. Another company couldn't do it, Disney made sure they have the rights to all the pre Zyuranger footage. To protect themselves from another company doing just that.

I don't know if it would really work though. The footage is older and less advanced. There probably isn't really a need for it either. But its an interesting idea to ponder.

Joe Rovang is working on a fan adaption of Jetman. He hasn't actually produced anything. But he has written scripts for it. Just for the fun of it. I believe there should be a link to it here:

Well I'm talking about going back to Series #1.

Remember thoes Tomb Raider games?

Somebody wrote a novel based on Tomb Raider - A new one.

We could remake a fan project and mix in US Rangers with Toei plots and that would ake it better.

Also for instance we could redo the Dino Thunder series but like have the Dino Earth plot be used.

So one idea is remake episodes with US Rangers substituted in and do a redub for the rest.

Using what Sentai footage though? The pre Zuy stuff or from the season we are prequeling/remaking?

I think for this project for the 15 Generations of prior to Mighty Morphin we should do an English dub as a fan thing so West viewers can see the shows prior to Mighty Morphin 1. When they do Pokemon and Digimon thoes are English dub for the US airing. Also we should do the three generations used for MMPR.

Then for Zeo to Jungle Fury use the American Rangers and place them in Japan's episodes and English Dub the current 14 generations (Mighty Morphin to Jungle Fury.

Yeah, didn't Chris Funaro make a long lengthy point on how Dino Earth wouldn't have worked in PR?

Yeah, it was either on Rangerboard or in an episode of Rangercast ( or both).

Found it!!

Adding Dino Earth, or making Dino Earth seminal to the seasonal storyline in the DT we had, would suck. You'd lose so much of what made DT its own entity that it would be a horrible loss. No school, no social lives, nothing. If we're picking up the season again after Thunder Struck, sure. The energy-dino finisher opened up a dimensional rift to an alternate universe where Mesogog proceeded to take over the entire world in short order by enslaving its reptilian inhabitants. Or even do a Marky Mark-PotA riff, and say there's a time dilation field and Mesogog has been on Dino Earth for centuries/millennia.

If Dino Earth is a mechanism for other storylines, I don't have a problem with it. Introducing Dino Earth as a key part of the mythos for DT at the onset I have a tremendous problem with, because it's the same always-on-theme crap PR pulls every season to make it impossible for the cast to simply be their own people or have adventures that are off-theme for the year. Once the season's over and they've graduated, I don't have a problem with them having adventures on an alternate Earth.

Simango, there's no point to any of that when people can easily just download Super Sentai series.

I'd love to get some kind of Super Sentai DVDs that we're subbed and dubbed. Even if they we're a limited release.

Toei would probably have to release themselves. Most likely working with Saban Brands. Who now own the rights to Power Rangers.

It would be interesting if they actuallly did a prequel type of idea in which they ended up showing all of the pre-Zyuranger stuff but it wouldn't really work. Granted Saban Brands is in charge now but according to what some people have stated, Saban wouldn't ever support any kind of dub. It's been claimed that Jonathan Tzachor wanted Power Rangers Samurai to be a dub but Saban wouldn't allow it so a dub wouldn't work.

Now a short live action series would work but how would you really handle it? It would have to feature editing like they did with Masked Rider or Beetleborgs since it's doubtful any of the monster and zord suits are still usuable for a production. The Ranger suits wouldn't be a concern since Power Rangers typically makes their own Ranger suits anyway.

Not to mention like PRangerX said, the footage would be pretty old as well so there wouldn't be a whole lot that you would be able to show off.

15 prequel shows would be a stupid investment.

15 prequel 1 hour specials using all new footage would be better but still probably stupid in the long run when all you have to do is edit out or reshoot when they use pre-Zyu suits in Gokaiger or any other movies they might adapt for PR.
