W...what is this? Why are the Power Rangers fighting Mr. Robot? Said it before, I'll say it again. This isn't a Reboot reboot, it's a Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad reboot I mention that in the op.  But it was even more so than the original sounded because they have evil person helping the virus in the real world... of course SSS wins there too because the villain was Tim Curry Edit: someone mentioned to me the human villain mentions bringing Megabyte back... So this might be a sequel somehow. If so will the kids be horrified to find out they're responsible for the deaths of millions due to video games. |

If not for Megabyte, this wouldn't even be a Reboot movie. There doesn't even appear to be any other tie to the original series.

This isn't a Reboot reboot, it's a Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad reboot Which coincidentally is also getting a kind of sort reboot in Japan in Anime form via Studio Trigger. Well it's based on the original source material Gridman but it's subtitle is Superhuman Samurai Syber Squad www.denofgeek.com/us/tv/gridman/266074/gridman-anime-trailer-arrivesAnyways back to topic at hand this is pretty much Reboot in name only as none of the original creators were involved in this. |

I know he only said one line, but why did they give Megabyte the most bland voice possible?
I mean, it's hard to replace Tony Jay...but damn.

Apparently, this was another script situation similar to the Cloverfield Paradox/God Particle - they've taken a completely unrelated script and tied it in to Reboot with a couple of scenes.

Not to defend the practice (and I haven't seen Cloverfield Paradox so I can't say if it works or not) as it seems like a lazy way to revive something dormant for years but...what else could they really have done with Reboot at this point? A new season has been promised for so long, kids who were born when the show started are in retirement homes now. If you're going to do something with it, you might as well see if you can make it work for something else. Again, it's lazy as sin but it's honestly the best fans are going to get, which sucks for the fans until someone comes along with a better pitch. |

I enjoyed Mbatha-Raw's performance, but she deserved a better movie. |

 We are going to get Hex. Surely they can't screw up Hex, right? Right? |

'We tried to imagine that ReBoot had never been made and we were making it for the first time for today's audience.' www.rebootrevival.com/?p=2513If you're not going to try to keep to the spirit of something, why bother reviving it? Why not just produce something new? |

It’s the unofficial Super Human Samurai Syber Squad/ Code Lyoko crossover I never knew I wanted, and I am there for it. I just feel for the guy that has to try to follow the late, great Tony Jay as Megabyte 'We tried to imagine that ReBoot had never been made and we were making it for the first time for today's audience.' www.rebootrevival.com/?p=2513If you're not going to try to keep to the spirit of something, why bother reviving it? Why not just produce something new? Branding. The name alone gives it attention. Would this thread have even been made if it didn’t have the Revoot name attached? I doubt it. |

That's not Reboot. That's Code Lyoko with a paintjob and shots lifted directly from Iron Man.
Code Lyoko in live action would be nice, I used to like that show.

They're not going to get the people irked by the trailer watching, or making their kids watch it with them no matter what they believe when the buzz is negative. |
