Well, there's the most fanboy rampant article on TvTropes yet.

Honestly don't see why the turning of people to skeletons is so special.

Also who's everyone's favorite species of monster?

Destron's.

Man, Faiz Paradise Lost has to be the best Kamen Rider movie. It was just excellent.

Not in the same league of being as well acted, or thought out.
Hinders too much on Ichigo and Nigo fanservice.
Plus a lame ass out of nowhere plot twist at the end
Also too much Momotaros serving no point other than being there.

Let's Go Kamen Riders is weighed down by a lot of things. This is apparent, upon a second viewing.

Now between W A to Z and Faiz Paradise Lost it's a tough call.
Both are pretty well thought out
Both get great heroic climaxes with the hero coming back from the edge of defeat.
Both have satisfying endings

Which is funny as I watched all 3 today

Though speaking honestly 555 Paradise Lost = W A to Z > Let's Go Kamen Rider.

But if you haven't seen Paradise Lost I highly recommend it, it's great.
A tier above most Rider movies

Is the movie that celebrate the 40th anniversary of the franchise!

Also Takeshi Hongo and Hayato Ichimonji>Shotaro and Philip.

The only thing i disliked in Paradise Lost(other than the gruesome deaths) is that the main villain is a Kamen Rider.....And like i said before....KAMEN RIDERS SHOULD NOT FIGHT EACH OTHER!!!

nd good for seeing the Showa Riders just wreck some shit.

Ishinomori characters are much more than just wreck some shit.

[HikizuruBeat]

As much as I like Rider 1 and Rider 2 I like Shotaro and Phillip better. Probably because W is my favorite Kamen Rider.

Anyways~ I just bought S.h.figuarts Kamen Rider OOO tatoba form. I heard the OOO figuarts weren't really that good, but I really love figuarts and OOO is one of my top 5 fav riders. Plus it came with Ankh.

List of figuarts that I must get:
Skull crystal version
Amazon
Meteor (One day you'll come out)

Figuarts I'll one day get, but aren't top priority:
Rider 1
Rider 2
Black
Kabuto
Joker
Cyclone/Joker Gold Extreme
Tajadoru (with wings)

But that's what makes it cool, that's what makes A to Z so cool. Eternal (Who's by far one of the more badass Riders in terms of comabitive ability) slugging it out with W, shit was awesome.

This whole Riders shouldn't fight each other attitude is boring. Many of Batman and Superman's best stories have them at odds, and they're WAAAAY more iconic than any Rider could ever dream of being. Why can't Riders fight each other? It makes for more interesting stories, and quite frankly, better villians.

It worked to an extent in Kiva, putting Kiva and Saga on a collision course for having different motives for destroying the Fangire. Though it didn't do much as far as developing Taiga or Wataru.

Rider conflict in Kabuto, helped to diversify the Zect Riders, by diverging their motivations. Showing them each to have their own reasons, to which another could get in the way of (Or in the case of Kick and Punch Hopper, just being weird)

Plus in Faiz, the belts were made by the Orphenocs anyways. It's actually logical for one to be used against the humans.

It works very well as a good alternative to monster thrashing, or just beating up annoying, useless grunts (Thankfully they took that out in the newer series, and relagated it to Sentai where they're treated like jokes)

Is the movie that celebrate the 40th anniversary of the franchise!

It doesn't really work well as one until the end. I think Gokaiger, Goseiger 199 Heroes Battle was a much better anniversary film, than Let's Go Kamen Riders is.

I have A to Z memories. I still need to watch it. Isn't it between certain episodes in the W series?

[SaiyanRider54]

Episodes 44 and 45 to be exact. They also reference OOO in one of those episodes as well.

And yes I have seen Paradise Lost (why do they call it that anyways?) as well as LGKR.
I think both are awesome, but Paridise Lost is probably a better movie. Having recently re-watching LGKR, I don't think it was all that great. It makes no sense in ANY timelines of all of the riders continuity and it really isn't an "all riders" movie until the last couple minutes. With "All Riders" in the title you'd think they'd have V3-Decade do more than just two punches and mabye a kick and then just get their ass handed to them until they do that cheesy "All Rider Break" as Eiji called it.
KRDCD: All riders vs. Dai-Shocker had a lot more "All Rider" action if you ask me. LGKR is still extreamly enjoyable and would definately take it over ARvsDS any day.
(Those kids in LGKR were very anoying as well. Their screen time could've went to more rider action, but NO watching Eiji and Ankh chase around a bunch of annoying little kids is MUCH more entertaining that that shit... )

Yep,the kids were annoying.

I'm still sorta new to Kamen Rider and have so far watched Den-O, Decade, and Kiva. What are other good KR shows that I should watch?

Double, (or W whatever you feel like calling him) Faiz, and OOO are very good, you should check them out.

Go W and OOO, they're a great time to watch.
W is still the best Rider series I have seen yet, though Kuuga is catching up

[shinmattiathekaiju]

I'm still sorta new to Kamen Rider and have so far watched Den-O, Decade, and Kiva. What are other good KR shows that I should watch?

Kamen Rider Black and Black RX.

Watch also the first series and V3 if you like Adam West Batman mixed with Bruce Lee and James Bond.

W-B-X, and OOOO played on the violin.
Just some neat Rider related stuff

[shinmattiathekaiju]

I really enjoyed W, Is the most Showa-ish of the heisei series:The heroes are Phletibonum rebels,W has a scarf,a skreeoonk scarf, the villains are people turned into monsters,the big bad is a Bond-style villain(without a silly costume,unfortunatly),the only thing missing is cyborgs.
