DinoThunder seemed to be trying to make Trent into the new Tommy. They failed majorly. Trent never felt like much of a threat. And as a good guy was pretty lacking. He didn't have the larger than life personality of Tommy.

DinoThunder should have took place at Angel Grove High with a new generation of teenagers. They should not have totally copyed the MMPR Rangers but been similar.

Or you could just pop in a dvd of MMPR and watch that instead.

Really you two are slaves to MMPR. Especially MMPR Forever. No offense but its hard to take you seriously when you gush over MMPR.

I think Trent was great! He wasn't Tommy but he was great in his own way.

I don't think that was the plan. Trent was supposed to be his own character. They had the real thing , why copy?

I'm starting to like Braui better now that I have been watching a lot of Zyuranger..

I don't think any one character should dominate the show. Tommy was fine for his time though.

Thats why I like Sentai. No one really dominates.

I don't want Trent to be Tommy. I want him to be Trent.

Trent is pretty cool in his own right. I don't care if he is like Tommy or not.

I don't think many people claim he is. It would have been a mistake to try and make Trent another Tommy.

Trent was just a disappointing character. Its too bad they couldn't do something closer to Abrakiller. I know they couldn't do it exactly like Sentai, I would just like a darker character than we got.

You can't ignore the similarities. Evil Ranger who turns good and joins the team. There are obviously a lot of differences. I certainly wouldn't say Trent was ever the next Tommy. Cam had a chance to be but only being around a year isn't enough.

Really, Trent is so much better than Tommy. Since he doesn't hog the spotlight. Trent is who Tommy should have been.

I agree post White Ranger return. Tommy actually holds up real well as Green Ranger. Yes, I know my name is No Green Spandex.

I think Trent was good for who he was. But Tommy is an all time great. I liked him even more as White. But really I don't compare the two characters to each other. Not just because they were both under evil spells. Does that mean the Thunder Rangers are like Tommy?

I don't think Trent was written to be a new Tommy. The only similarity is the evil Ranger thing..And even that was done differently . It also lasted a lot longer.

The early arch with Trent clearly was meant to play off of "Green With Evil". His character became a toned down version of Abrekiller afterwards. But once Disney changed plans Trent became his own character.

I don't think he should be. They should be there own characters.
