Anyone else catch the first episode?? {Spoiler}
I understand it is a homage to the original MMPR...so I can forgive the rehashing of a remix you used for samurai just changing the lyrics.
I even liked the new command center.
BUT WHAT THE HELL! with the completely illogical and ridiculous statement of Gosei being put their on earth by his mentor Zordon....REALLY? there is sooooooo much to be said about that. I know this is PR and I should quit thinking so hard about it...but COME ON!! that statement throws so much out the window. Apart from that non sense I liked it..the acting has alot to be desired but it is Power Rangers so meh hammy acting is a pre-requisite. |

If there is no hot femme fatale villain, then no buys.

And they're not using the pirate series why? The japanese didn't even like this series.

I think MegaForce is only like 20 episodes long, and Pirate Armada will follow straight after.

I do wonder if they'll dub the crossover movie. Because seeing two teams throwing down against a hundred other power rangers would be awesome.

Considering the very first scene opens with said pirate series' marquee scene of a dozen Power Ranger teams fighting against evil aliens, as well as its main caveat of "Ranger Keys" being prominent inside the new Command Center, this is a big certainty. |

Yeah, they've already said they're basically merging Gokaiger into MegaForce, with them saying that they're likely not going to have the Rangers use the Gokaiger suits as their official/standard suits. Due to how confusing it will be for American audiences.
Which really annoys me, because Gokaiger was one of my favorites of the recent offerings of Sentai.

If there is no hot femme fatale villain, then no buys. The Pink ranger wears really short short shorts, is that acceptable? Anyway, the first episode shows more potential than Samurai but I hope they don't make to many old references, Nostalgia is good but I don't want to much of it. |

I enjoyed the first episode. Some good callbacks here and there. My main problem would be the rangers acting like they've never heard of Power Rangers before. I hate it when they do that. I imagine giant monster battles would be a very important news headline.

That's all that series was. Don't get me wrong, it was an enjoyable viewing experience, but it's obvious a gripping story wasn't exactly high on that show's list of priorities. Fights were awesome, though. |

I imagine giant monster battles would be a very important news headline. What I never understand is how do each of these teams able to call themselves Power Rangers. I always figured that technically, only the Zordon Era teams were "Power Rangers", and any future teams were just similarly themed "pretenders". The lone exception would be the Dino Thunder team, because Tommy passed it down to them. |

I'd say any tech based teams too, like Time Force, SPD, Lightspeed Rescue etc. since they have found a way to hack into the morphong grid, they could have found information there, and seen that the teams using it were called Power Rangers and decided to continue the legacy, not pretenders, more a tribute. |

And what about other teams who aren't connected to Zordon, but obtain powers through other mystical/supernatural means, i.e. Lost Galaxy, Wild Force, Mystic Force? |

All of them are still able to access the morphing grid, which I think is the main basis for why they call themselves power rangers. |
