Part of the no explantion is that this is not the "first episode" in the storyline. (Saban thought it would be better ratings wise to start with an action packed episode). And turns out his decision was correct as this made more than 2 million views. Let's see if he can keep it coming. It was posted on Henshin Justice unlimited and I will try to find it. Edit: http://forums.henshinjustice.com/showth ... 16&page=36

Acting wise I thought it was better acting then what we have seen in a long time though that's not saying much. The only PR season that had alright acting was Time Force really. As much as I love MMPR, that had the worst acting in the series IMO.

Also, the violence factor is back. The monster's arms got cut off by the Megazord, something disney would not have let.

I actually really liked the episode. It was very nostalgic, like an old school Power Rangers series, me and my roomate, another Rangers fan, watched it and loved it.

No one knows when the pilot will air though there is a rumor that Nick will advertise it as a "See how PRS begin" sort of thing.

Soooo...

What's everyone thoughts on Power Rangers Samurai so far?

Biggest disappointment I've had so far is the lack of Bulk and Skull

Spike just doesn't fit the bill. :/

I'm still uncertain. I kind dislike the Red ranger, he seems really robotic, and not caring about anyone but himself and his training. And the lack of the actual episodes 1 and 2, which I "heard" will be made into a 75 minute long movie, to serve as the origin

Power Rangers will be good once they adapt Gokaiger, as impossible as that likely will be.

Skull's actor is a teacher now, they really couldn't get him to reprise his role, so they just made him a son.

Personally, I LOVE the series so far, it's not the best series ever, but it's not even close to worst. RPM is the only Disney series which might be better than this one, and that's just because Disney didn't care and told the creator to do whatever he wanted.

He's actually less cold than his Japanese counterpart though.

Also, I'm loving Ricardo Medina Jr. as Deker, he's doing a great job as the character.

Also, on topic, I've seen pics of a new Ranger suit circulating around that was made for Samurai. Has anyone heard anything about that?

Ladies(the very few) and the many gentlemen of this forum, let your inner child shout in glee while the series is still not in the U.S. region of dvd land but if you have a netflix account, You can watch every season from mighty morphin to the last season before it went into Limbo.

I was a hardcore MMPR fan... Last series I watched was Zeo.

Is Samurai good?

Started out a little slow, then the character Deker showed up and it got a lot better. When the sixth Ranger showed up, it really got good. It's a lot like the Japanese version, but it's started splitting off and heading into it's own thing.

Alright guys, this has been bugging me for the past week. I cannot for the life of me figure out what monster I am thinking of.
I believe it was white-ish in color, and looked sorta like a robot or something. Had some spikes maybe. And then along with it was this huge face in the sky that was all spikey. I want to say that it could grow swords out of it's arms? And that it was dominating whichever Zords it fought. And I swear that Rita was involved in the episode somehow. But I CANNOT figure out what it is. UGH.

EDIT: Ha! As soon as I post this I find it. It's Cyclopsis, I believe. But the picture I saw of it earlier wasn't actually a picture of it. :?

Cyclopsis is the name you are looking for and he was also piloted by Goldar and in the Japanese version the head was Satan.

Stuckey, as your apperent Superior I'm deducting a week's worth of pay from you. :P

Cyclopsis I always thought was cool and it's even cooler that he's playable in two power rangers games.

just thought of something.

If they had to film new MMPR footage with the white ranger and the other rangers they couldn't have made jason or a new actor the new green ranger and just splice some dragonzord footage into a couple zord fights?

And it seems that Gokaiger, the epic anniversary season that utilized every Ranger ever, will not only not be the next season of Power Rangers, but will in fact never be adapted. Ever.

You may be wondering why Power Rangers Megaforce used Goseiger rather than Gokaiger, which was an ideal season based on the successful execution of the anniversary concepts. I wasn’t able to get a solid answer for this question. They believed that Gokaiger’s pirate theme was more focused for boys (rather than boys and girls) and the concepts of stealing and plundering were too hardcore for a young audience.
