I saw this video, and wanted to ask the question, Is Power Rangers dead yet?

It’s in a weird spot desu, after the main series ended on Netflix they tried to reboot it from the ground up (which most certainly would’ve taken elements from the comics like Lord Drakken and the like) but it’s cancellation did cause a brief uproar from the fanbase since it meant there’s not gonna be material for a long time, and not to mention the super sentai series taking a long break. The series wouldn’t have suffered this fate in hasbro’s hands had the dude that had the very vision to make the series enter another golden age not die shortly after the acquisition leaving hasbro running around like headless chickens trying to figure out what to do with it, so they decided to screw over rival toy company Bandai instead and that’s kinda how it all went down, its an unfortunate situation indeed
sorry for the reposts I messed up a few times but third times the charm

Yes, Power is dead, not even worth questioning that.
>>
Died when it started skipping Sentai seasons and did the Western franchise thing of trying to milk genwun nostalgia.
>>
>>24036827
>I saw this video
Sure you did. When you were uploading it, I bet. Buy an ad.
>>
It's effectively just a nostalgia IP farm now. Every time they try to make a new show they get into preproduction, balk at the cost after being used to Sentai doing most of the work for them and then cancel the project. And since Sentai is now defunct they can't use that anymore either.

This is obviously your video. Why even pretend you 'found' it? There's nothing wrong with saying you made it.
>>
>>24037849
There is. Advertising is against the rules.

I'm more surprised that he considered the dwindling population of this place actually a boost to his views.

>Is Power Rangers dead yet?
Well, yes. Yes, it is, young anon. It has passed on. This franchise is no more. It has ceased to be. It’s expired and gone to meet his maker. It’s a stiff. Bereft of life! It rests in peace! If it didn't shoot itself, it’d be pushing up daisies! It’s metabolic processes are now history! It’s off the twig! It’s kicked the bucket! It’s shuffled off the mortal coil! Run down the curtain and joined the friggin' choir invisible! THIS...IS AN EX...FRANCHISE!!!!

OP must think this is like 2012 when /m/ actually had thousands of users. It's more like dozens now.
>>
>>24036827
I hope so.

Get your own damn opinion and personality that isn't being a plant!

You get banned for pointing out the creepy behaviour of the t-slur mods over at /VR/ and /co/ and they claimed you were "off topic", this website stop being a free speech site with enforceable rules since 2014.

This, if you can’t creatively adapt a season, you already lost. Trains can be easily adapted. You adapted Go-Onger for fucks sake. Zenkaiger would’ve been easy, hardest toss up would be donbrothers but you could’ve just played into the avatar video game theme.

It was never alive to begin with. It was a Frankenstein monster that existed only because Americans can't root for non-American heroes

>thousands of users?
That was real ever? I can't imagine that after 2008 maybe.
>>
>>24052034
I think the issue with Toqger is more the suit design than the trains. Back when Power Rangers was big the figures were more important than the Zords for the toyline too, unlike with Sentai.

I guess they could have done American original power up suits, but for whatever reason Saban was mostly wasting their original power up suits in cockpit footage.
>>
>>24036827
Hope so.
>>
Yes it's dead and it took Sentai's budget with it.

Since like a decade ago.
