Will Power Rangers Reboot? What's the Future of the Franchise? | Hasbro | Netflix

[@graefx]

The "90s is starting to look real old" hit me like a truck. I was talking to another student and realized they were 10 years younger than me. What original power rangers, Xmen TAS, and the first spider-man movie is to me, Batman begins and Iron Man was to them. This whole wave of merchandising and nostalgia started when millenials were hitting their 20s, theres another generation coming up and if you keep recycling the same old nostalgia for an ever aging audience, theres going to be nothing for the nostaglia of that next generation whos energized and under served.

[@jackmcmorrow9397]

its the same thing that crashed the comic book market back in the 90s; regearing towards old fans with disposable income might work for a while, but eventually is starts to stifle and stomp out innovative ideas in favor of cheap markettable callbacks. A similar thing is happening with ANOTHER Hasbro IP, Transformers. Lately, it feels like everything has been marketted towards the fans who grew up with the 80s show, but what about the kids who grew up with Armada or the Bayverse?

[@Satarcon84]

I dont care what studio picks up Power rangers but hire Andre as an advisor, i freaking love his ideas

[@marinerman]

Andre and Linkara would be great consultants if they’re trying to have some ties back to the original 30 year legacy

[@nicholasdeporto5257]

Hear me out…Power Rangers movie directed by James Gunn🔥🔥🔥

[@wolfofthepride]

There's so many of us who know how to do it right. Andre is definitely a leader in the fandom.

[@blumouse8539]

I mean, Andre was already a Power Ranger, so it'd make sense.

[@Jumbalia23]

I just fear that if they divorce themselves completely from the Sentai footage, without that need to change up the aesthetics and the cast every few years, we’ll just get MMPR over and over again. Those same dinosaurs, same characters (even if played by different actors), same storylines. I’d love to be proven wrong, but I just don’t have much hope there’d be anything fully original, neither derived from Sentai nor a reboot/“reimagining” of the first series.

[@madnessarcade7447]

We are getting power rangers infinity which is an original team in the comics so I disagree

[@madnessarcade7447]

Disagree

[@madnessarcade7447]

We always get a new team whether show or comics I think they’ll keep doing that

[@Fribee83]

This is a fantastic point. Sentai will have an entire season about spider-based zords or forms of electricity just for the shit of it while if Disney had to be the one to decide the theme, they'll go the safe "Let's just go with dinosaurs again". I'm not even a huge Power Rangers fan anymore but I respect that Sentai isn't afraid to try completely weird stuff and not even try to pretend like it's normal.

[@DeadAir21]

Problem with the Sentai footage is the footage is becoming less usable. The last few Sentai series were great for Japanese audiences but doesn’t easily translate to power rangers.

[@nathanstraley896]

What should happen: 3 directions. 1. New studio (Paramount) handles a reboot. They can do whatever they want. 2. Hasbro gets their Canadian team off the ground and goes back to sentai adaptions, they're cheap enough and it keeps the "Hardcore" fans happy and buying toys. 3. Animated show for both audiences that would be something like the Teen Titans Go or Harley Quinn show, but could be a bit more serious. Easy way for Alum to come back and voice their characters again, Kayman-Lee said he'd be down to return if this was the direction they went. But the trick is, do all 3. There is no such thing as "universe confusion" when you have a brand as big as PR, Marvel juggles it just fine and youtubers serve to help explain any kind of twisting around or mixing it up. Plus, if you do them simultaneously you can cross over and double expose the hardcore fans with the mainstream fans.

[@DeadAir21]

Problem with Sentai footage it’s getting harder to use. Whole point of using the Sentai footage is was to film less original content. But watching the last 3 seasons of Sentai, you’d have to reshoot everything 100% because none of it translate to the power rangers formula.

[@Merdicano]

Paramount is literally on the verge of collapsing 😓. Seeking out a major company to be bought, with their stock almost going low, like, they're going through a huge darker phase as we speak. And I fear the worst for what the outcome is going to be for them in regards to who will carry the studio from now on

[@christianramirez6578]

Honestly an animated power rangers series should be inspired by 2000s cartoons like Ben 10

[@Merdicano]

@@christianramirez6578 One perfect blueprint that could make a Power Rangers animated series work should be Ninjago. The writing and characters could bring a great formula for Power Rangers if done right

[@TheMidnightillusion]

I feel that would make things even more confusing for newcomers and spread the fanbase too thin. If you have 3 different versions all happening at the same time, newcomers to the series are going to constantly ask "which is the definitive version? Which should I watch first? Do I need to watch them all?" and more likely than not they will just not even bother watching any of them.

The only people I ever see hoping for more power rangers or talking about it want a newer more serious/adult version of MMPR. No one but the hardcores care about any other version. You cater to your audience which is people who watched from the OG movie and before.

[@cyber-thundr_]

Selling Power Rangers back to Saban is the definition of “THE WORST DECISION DISNEY HAS EVER MADE” 👎🏻 because after they no longer wanting to own the show we get more sh***ier 💩 seasons & failed licensed products. Samurai was not loved by many, Megaforce was a Mega-piece-sh***, I freaking HATE that season 😡 I hated it so much that it makes me angry because they’re too hyped about setting up Rangers from old seasons but the problem is they never tell a good cohesive story around it and that makes Operation Overdrive a masterpiece, the 2017 theatrical reboot was a box office flop, and we only have 2 Power Rangers seasons of the post Disney seasons that are good like Dino Charge was loved by many, and Ninja Steel by many was okay.

[@cqmi8712]

It wasn't perfect. Just because the show was good doesn't mean that the brand was thriving. The only thing that Disney did to promote the brand was putting a car with six Rangers in a park and the Super Legends videogame, nothing else.

[@MattCaliber]

Speaking of G.I. Joe, we haven't gotten a cartoon of them in a long time. Glad we're getting toys again but would like a cartoon too. Idea for one: Cobra has taking over the world! And it's up to a resistance group of old and new characters to fight back! G.I. Joe: Resistance!

They just need to reimagine MMPR, but closer to how the comics reimagined it and not how the 2017 movie did. The real issue is that there is no love or passion behind these mega corporations. We are far past the days of a creator solely owning and producing content with their own small company.

Animation would be an amazing direction for the series, it would be easier to coordinate legacy cast members coming on for cameos/team ups (plus a number of them went on to be VAs) , they could do more with the action and zords, plus it could bring in a larger audience as animation has become more mainstream lately.

Power Rangers Legion.

My question is why they're breaking their heads so hard about this? Is it because the money isn't so "easy" anymore? Adapting Sentai would still be a given. Properly streaming Sentai subbed would be a given. Adapting the Comics into either Live Action or Animation would be a given. Adapting Hyperforce would be a given. Heck, even making a multiverse game line would be a given. They're not even transparent with what the issues are. At least with Disney we knew it was that they thought the franchise was too violent back then. It can't be "it doesn't make money" because as a franchise its still one of the most lucrative things in the world. It's not Pokémon or Disney level, but like, in terms of making money, it's like a B-Lister that you can't tell me doesn't make money.

[@hpfred]

You joked about puppets and stop-motion but that'd be cool. Actually I have a pitch, and anyobe at Hasbro you can take this one for free: Make it stop motion with Hasbro action figures, like Robot Chicken but actually make it serious. It could have a kid playing with toys aesthetics a bit, but a big budget version of that. The kids after watching it can just go to the store and buy the figures from the movie, not toy versions of them, but the actual same figure that was aninated on the screen. Robert Rodriguez talked about how he used Star Wars toys to storyboard Mando action scenes, and I want that vibe. Actually, bring Robert Rodriguez into this. Make a character focused toy stop motion with highly cinematic and thrilling action scenes.

This sends the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers on a new quest to find their missing Ranger. Along the way, we run into updated versions of the previous Power Rangers.

With the rumors that Hasbro, didn't want the IP. I wouldn't be surprise they eventually sell the franchise. If i own a studio have the money to buy the Power Rangers, i would do justice to the franchise.

[@nicholasrodinos4701]

Personally, I'd love an animated Power Rangers series. We could really use more action cartoons, I'd say create a whole new thing, with little hints saying 'Yes, the original universe still exists and all your favorite characters exist, but we're doing our own thing, please just let us be our own thing.'

[@maxordman4100]

First and foremost thank you very much for giving this topic the attention and respect that it truly deserves and I strongly want Power Rangers to continue and to make money again and to reach more people across the world. I’m all for doing a few different things but I’m not on board with shared hasbro verse right now because I never liked the idea of Power Rangers having a connection to either the government or a corporation. However I would never say that it’s a bad idea to link it up with Transformers but I just don’t like the concept of a possible connection with either government or military forces. That’s the problem that comes up in my mind when I consider the hasbro verse idea. However a lot of your other ideas are fantastic and I really appreciate your enthusiasm and your passion here. I have a lot of amazing ideas myself and I hope that maybe someday I could share them with the right people who could help make them popular and bring the franchise back! Thank you again for sharing your perspective on this topic and showing off such strong enthusiasm! This was one of the better responses I’ve heard on the current situation! Go go power rangers! Thank you very much Andre!

[@DankbotDancing]

Honestly I hope they continue to build off the lore. There is so much. Little 6 episode seasons doing an arc focusing on 1 team or teamups. Easy to do focusing on a singular threat happening like in cosmic fury. Companion pieces to a new team series which is like 20 episodes split into 2 parts plus a Halloween and holiday special

[@dcnfreak5]

A hundred percent agree about starting over with the hasbroverse and hear me out.....gi joe takes transformers Tech to develop new "power suits" and somehow these suits bond to civilian teenagers (maybe young adults) and they become the power rangers

[@reese_collects]

Such a well spoken and well made video Andre!! You hit all the important points and yet again succeed at being the voice of the fans. Hope your thoughts and ideas reach Hasbro and in a perfect world follow through with some of these ideas. Keep killing it!

[@TheEleventhDoctor]

I wish the Power Rangers franchise would return and to adapt the Boonboomger season.

[@andylindsey]

If Hasbro is thinking they want to appeal to adult fans as well as kids, I think the happy middle ground is to reboot MMPR and stick with that version for a few seasons, see where that goes. Keep the classic costumes, zords, bright colors, heavy metal music, etc. but give it a new cast of new, young original characters. Trying to recast all the OG characters would just have us comparing the new actors to the original cast and they won't live up to the nostalgia. Maybe introduce a new, sinister villain to make it fresh. No more Rita or Lord Zedd. And don't go too dark. Add some drama and compelling plot twists, like PR in Space did. But at the end of the day, this is Power Rangers. They don't have to go full cheesy, kiddy with the writing, but trying to make it some dark, brooding franchise is just ludicrous. It will never work, IMO.

[@manuelorozco7760]

Why not still have Astronema? But I strongly agree. I love the OG characters. But it’s time for characters that won’t be written off for behind the scenes reasons

[@Cloud-dt6xb]

As someone who's had experience with Hasbro stuff I think it's going to be a case of them sticking to what's shown to work. The reboot failing is a sure sign that it was bigger work to try an all orignal series than they expected. A good way I'd do it is adapt the Sentai series so you can continually put out new episodes like before, and then have a new team focused souly on pumping out a new special like Once and Always every once and awhile.

[@JuneieBack]

Honestly if I were them I would go almost fully original. Just use the Super Sentai suits with completely original footage. That way they could even use past suits from older Super Sentai while telling new stories that fit their continuity. Also I don’t know why people are treating the series as if it has to have two different demographics. Just have it be more family oriented instead of being purely aimed at kids. In other words, just make it TV-PG instead of TV-Y or TV-Y7. That way it can be slightly more mature while still accessible to everyone. In other words, similar to Super Sentai.

[@wolfgod6890]

Aye Yooo you finally Said it lol 😂😂😂 " Lov3 ya Like a Play Cuzin Outti 5000" glad u back using it

[@PaulGaleNetwork]

Great discussion, Andre. Hopefully Power Rangers can have a thriving future. Rita’s Revenge is an awesome start!

[@Half_Bl00d_H3R0]

I need Lost Galaxy, Lighspeed, and Time Force to get some love. Can we please!!!

[@darkangel220a]

a more mature animated power rangers series or movie that continues the stories of previous ranger teams voiced by those original rangers is the way to go

[@TheColonelKaijuVT]

I would love to see them continue to adapt more Sentai here in the west, because there's some amazing concepts down the pipeline that I think would be a real shame to not see here. The season that follows what was loosely adapted into Cosmic Fury, for instance, is a cops vs robbers show with two rival teams of rangers, one team being detectives and the other being phantom thieves, which is such a cool and unique take on the formula! But, just like you said here, more than anything, I just want someone to do SOMETHING with the series. It's so disheartening to see it come to such a sudden screeching halt following Cosmic Fury, and I really hope it gets back on track sooner rather than later

[@davidtheriault1421]

It's baffling that after 30 years there's been no animated Power Rangers series

[@pleaseshutup7053]

Not baffling at all it’s not meant to be an animated series

[@gemglowsticks]

Cobra Commando and Rita Repulsa teaming up with the Decepticons is a fascinating concept.

[@Zeltrax7]

An animated series with a Young Justice or Justice League (Unlimited) formula would work so well with this. Have your initial focus, the founding members, represent the different types of series we've had: 1 ranger from space, 1 from the future, 1 from the past, 1 governement funded, 1 MMPR (love it or hate it, it's still the series that started it all),... and have them assemble a mix and match team foŕ whatever mission they're dealing with that episode. Have them fight previously defeated villains from different series and, along the way, discover how and why they're back. If the series lasts long enough; do the unused Hexagon idea, flash back to Scorpion Rain, eventually have Drakkon show up, have a real Mega Battle... There is so much, ready to use, stuff in this franchise. It would be animated so if you wanted to include a different Hasbro franchise you could do that for a few two-parters. And on the toy side of things you could continue the Lightning Collection. If, for whatever reason, you can 't put a complete team on the shelves then that would actually fit with the way the show works. If you wanted to release a Zord, you wouldn't have to wait untill all the zords that came before had been released.

[@2nerds1braincell]

one thing I'd love to see if them adapting some of the shorter comic stories in live action. Give us one of the Legend teams, or even one that was skipped over and have them make some references to older teams

[@madnessarcade7447]

19:35 I read entwistle is directing the new karate kid so maybe they’re waiting until he’s done with that before starting the PReboot

[@Trollkeeper123]

I love this video. I love your energy. I think that they should adapt the boom studios comics into an animated thing like the mentioned altraman because it looks dope and I think it would appeal to most fans if done right. (I've never read the comics so I'm not sure)(where can I read the comics? (Preferably online) Lol)

[@washiperjoestar]

Honestly, we need a project Super Sentai x Powers Rangers RIGHT NOW. Imagine if Power Rangers meets Zyuranger and fights together... Tommy learns how to be a great warrior from Burai. Jason fights side by side with Geki. Zack annoying Goushi with his goofy personality. Billy exchanges knowledge of their lore with Dan. Trini is excited to see Boi, her yellow counterpart as a male. Kim adores Mei like a long-lost sister. And Bandora & Rita team-up.

[@dr.darkcrow6784]

If it were me, I'd try to hit both markets: Keep the Sentai footage show for the kids, but make an animated series for more mature audiences. Kinda like Invincible levels of action, the material is there for it. And for the heck of it, I'd make it connected universe by only a few shared characters, just cause I like chaos a little bit.

[@maskmaker6374]

Honestly a Boom Studio's reboot would be great! And they can do is have that organization that the ranger from the 60s be apart of the GI Joe program and have her show up in a teaser saying "I think its time for me to talk to an old mentor of mine" and we hear the theme.

[@justyouraveragegeek548]

Okay Andre I like your idea about blending power Rangers into the transformers/gi joe universe just reminded me of power Rangers light speed rescue so why not use that series for a new jumping on ponit
