Some people don't seem to get that this was made for laughs...
Well, I don't think anyone would spend that kind of money and time just for laughs...
However, it is ironic that these people are complaining about how serious it...when it's actually them taking the "fan made" film too seriously.
I never liked Power Rangers as a kid. If it had been gritty like this, things would have been different.
@buttersdaman000: absoultely agree!
@gokaifire: That wasn't a trailer.
UM........It was cool for what it was but nice but no no no. I wouldn't be able to finish the movie if PR were really like that. I also thought was funny that the PR's were using Machine Guns hahahaha. Did you guys notice that when the Black Ranger was fighting he was a little fat and little bit slow LOL. Anyway it was cool for what it was.
Looks like this guy saw MK Rebirth and Legacy and said hmmm, I think I want to MKize Power Rangers lol. Though to be fair I know PR isn't MK level of darkness but this is kind of cool.
The SFW youtube version of the video is still on-line (with subtitles in Russian).
Just watched and AWESOME!!! The twist ending left my jaw on the floor as I didn't at all see it coming. It all left me wondering, "If Rocky is here, where are Adam and Aisha (and even Catherine for that matter)"??
I do have to call a bit of BS on Joseph Kahn's comments about the series. If you don't find it interesting, then why waste the money you did on known actors as the leads, great cinematography, and pretty good sfx?? It just felt like an odd comment to make even if it was just a parody of the dark superhero remakes.
Pretty awesome if you ask me. It is pretty cool to see a universe re-imagined. Some of us are old enough to remember the first couple of seasons. So, for me it is really cool.
Kind of sad they are removing it, there is a great amount of effort done in this. This film could be considered a parody, which is protected by the Fair Use Doctrine. However, most video hosting sites will pull a video at the smallest legal threat.
You can always download videos from YouTube before they are taken off. There are a number of add-ons in Firefox and Chrome to do so. There is also a review of the video on IGN.
I'm glad I got to catch it before it was gone… I really hope it will be available to the public again someday, it seems like such a waste because it was sooooo cool :/
This was a lot of fun, a bit gimmicky with the FX at times, buy told a quick and sweet story. I wouldn't want this to be a full movie, but this was just a better than average take on a old classic.
isn it was easier to recognize who was who
Hip Hop Kiddo was sheer brilliance only matched by the DAWSON and BREE OLSON casting
I loved literally everything about this and would have definitely paid to see a longer version. The original power rangers was great for what it was, and it inspired kids (like me at the time) to do positive things with their lives. Obviously this version couldn't do that. But it was still great.
But super sentai totally has it's dark and violent moments (Read a Kamen rider book), not to this extent but it still goes farther than most of the american power rangers series.(Though power rangers in space, lost galaxy and time force got fairly dark for kids shows, I may have cried during zordon's death scene).
And out of the 3 Original power rangers that were asked about the short film 2 really liked it. The real version is for kids and this version is for adults (it even explicilty says that at the start). And it poses some real questions that the kid's version wasn't ready to answer. I consider this a really well done alternate universe.
This Power Rangers version looks gritty and hardcore. But I don't like them using ordinary guns. They're Power Rangers, not soldiers.
