[@juliagoodwin9510]

Can we not...?

[@Draconyx13]

I almost shit my pants when I saw the thumbnail! The explanation for the mixed tone of the film is fairly simple: Steve Wang wanted to make a serious adaptation of the Guyver manga, whereas the studio saw it as an opportunity to make a goofier, more kid-friendly film to draw in a bigger audience. And mind you this was at least two years before Saban started releasing the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers, so it's not like the film would've been competing with it. Thankfully Steve Wang's initial vision was realised with the sequel, which stays much closer to the source material and is an all-round better movie(with the exception of the acting).

Capsy Dash He’s obviously never rolled or sparred, let alone fought, a legit BJJ practitioner. Striking has made huge leaps since the Gracie’s exposed how useless traditional Martial Arts were in the 90s, yet Muay Thai and BJJ, along with a good knowledge of wrestling, seem to make up the core of all the best fighters now.

[@AverageAwesomeDude]

Pedro Sepulveda you really don’t know what you’re talking about you know. BJJ has those too they’re just illegal in most fighting tournaments it’s called small joint manipulation and it would get you disqualified. On BJJ fighters avoiding aikido practitioners is just ridiculous once a fight is taken to the ground most aikido techniques wouldn’t work Tho people discounting aikido are also not getting the point aikido is a discipline mainly focused for self defense it’s ideal for when people grab you or reach for you in general after that it’s merely a question of being fast enough too grab them and then use their momentum against them. It’s by no means great for competitive fighting but not at all bad for self defense. I mentioned aikido is bad on the ground but in street fights the last thing u want is to be on the ground not only is concrete gonna skin you raw but while you’re dealing with one guy any others can crowd around and kick and stomp the shit out of you. Btw BJJ also has self defense standing techniques mostly standing joint locks and throws, and if you’ve ever been properly thrown by a jiu-jitsu or judo practitioner u know that you hit the ground hard and if that ground is concrete the chances of you getting back up to keep fighting after that are slim to none BJJ in UFC is a very specialised thing for one on one ground grappling it doesn’t represent the entirety of the art. Also don’t fight unless you have to, running away is always the safer choice for everyone involved, if you can’t you try diffusing the situation, fighting is always and should always be a last resort. Anyone who had a good martial arts teacher was probably taught that u know that you can seriously hurt people and that isn’t the aim of martial arts except in competition, Jiu-jitsu (a well applied choke will knock someone out in moments with no lasting harm) and aikido (their joint locks are great for stopping advance and locking in place so u can talk and diffuse the situation) are good for self defense because they can allow for fights to end with minimum damage to both parties if the user knows what they’re doing

The 2005 anime Guyver: Bio-Boosted Armor is VERY intense. I recommend it even if you didn't like the movies as its a huge step up.

[@Laughin9M4N]

I wish they would do a second season, they should have enough from the chapters for it, maybe even a third and make their own ending kind of like FMA 2000s show since the manga artist may never finish the manga

[@jetfire851]

The Guyver manga is outstanding, and amazingly it's been in continuous production since 1986 (although in more recent years it's slowed due to Yoshiki Takaya's age and health).

[@OlagGan]

OI!! AGE???? He was only born in 1960. That only makes 60, 10 years older than me. 60 years old is nothing especially in Japan where living to 80 odd is taken as normal. Bloody cheeky kid. I'll batter you with my pension book

[@theobscurestash6537]

Words cannot express how much this movie means to me. I would watch it over and over on the Sci-Fi channel when I was a kid (they played it on cable a lot in the 90's!) Little did I know that while I was waking up at 5 in the morning to watch Saturday Anime on the same channel that I was already indoctrinated by this live action movie. As cheesy and strange an adaption as it is I love the practical effects (which still hold up), and it was like a rated R Power Rangers for me back then. I still watch it and its sequel at least twice a year. 17:16...I still laugh at that. Thanks for having great taste in your reviews!

[@zubrhero5270]

There were some shit-hot channels for that back in the day. I remember watching Sci-Fi and Bravo a lot after a specific time, like it'd get to 10pm-midnight on 50% of the cable channels and they'd just flip... you'd either be watching cartoons one minute and then WCW Thunder/Nitro or black and white western the next (Cartoon Network/TNT 10pm flip), or you'd go from "normal broadcasting" to those really weird out-there late night cartoons or crazy Japanese movies. I'm English, so, dunno if it was any different anywhere else, and we got cable quite a while after the US. This is, like you said, one of the ones I would watch if I ever flicked over and it was on.

[@SchardtCinematic]

For 1991 these movies were done very well. They hold pretty well to the story to a point. They are also way better than any adaptations Netflix had put out of other Anime and Mangas.

[@EyesOnly34]

Brandon, thought you might find this interesting. The Aikido instructor in the movie is Deborah Gorman, who was one of Steven Seagal's prize students when he instructed at his school in Japan. Just a tidbit you might enjoy.

[@TVsTewi]

Oh shit guyver! Good choice!

I think Mark went with that role because he thought the character he was based off of was the coolest character in the book.

[@Powershade117]

Oh PLEASE do the second movie, Guyver 2: Dark Hero. It's MUCH better than this one in my opinion. Better action, better music, and more focused on what it wants to be. The acting can still be hit or miss like this first movie, but it's still pretty good.

The pacing in the second movie is too slow.

[@godzillathepro5451]

Minecraft player: Takes his armor off. Normal players: OK. Me with a armed weapons mod: 8:40

[@TheBonkleFox]

Power Rangers is one of the few adaptations of Japanese things that remained a classic that i can think of; mainly because it did its own thing for most of the seasons (I.e. In Space going with a completely different storyline compared to Megaranger). It's pretty noticeable that, aside from Turbo, some of the worst-recieved seasons of power rangers were ones that were literally carbon copies of their respective sentai seasons (like samurai) or played it so safe they failed to actively establish their characters or storyline (like Megaforce)

[@varanid9]

To be fair, most Japanese manga seem to have goofy humor interspersed throughout their stories. They're amazingly imaginative, but the writing is never really what one would call high-brow.

[@theinternetgavemeaids5393]

Mario Gales I agree, if u sit and watch it it’ll grow on you. Not Oscar worthy but it was better then the power rangers TV show. Maybe better then the new power rangers movie actually. Guyver 2 knew what it was and had a darker tone. More polished really.

When I first watched it, it was in the lounge of my dorm in college. One of the other residents (who was black) that came in partway through the movie made pretty much the same comment you did, something to the effect of "why'd they have to give him the big-ass lips?" I felt kind of bad about it, but the dude stuck around through the rest of the movie and seemed to think it was pretty funny, so that's good at least. Jar Jar Gremlin is about right though. Yeesh.

Oh yeah bro... Even though I originally said who gives a fuck about the big lips, for real-for real, they def designed that monster like that on purpose.. Shit, it wasn't any monsters like his in the original manga... But they had to make J.J.'s monster like that. . smh.. Fuck it tho... I ultimately still don't give a fuck... Lmaooo!!!!

I saw this back in the early 90s, I loved it. A few years later I found the (80s) anime and since then i was hooked on anime. Obviously, I watched anime but it was mixed with cartoons so I thought it was all the same, back then. I always give credit to this film for my obsession with anime. Fun fact: In the UK this was called Mutronics. When I talk to people that dont watch anime I tend to mention the live action versions. I loved the live action versions.

Mark Hamill with a mustache is a strange sight.

The costume facial movements are better than the power rangers villains' mouth movements.

It's interesting how they never seem elaborate on Mitsuki is apparently at least half Zoanoid but doesn't have a transformation?
