Re: Should we need to depend on sentai footage only
 

Look its silly to think they are going to produce an America based season 100 percent. But to say PR is Sentai and that it has to be Sentai exactly is wrong. PR is an adaption of Sentai. It does its own thing too. That doesn't mean it can't borrow any idea from Sentai. But I think you are going to the extreme in the other direction

Voltron did make changes to Golion. They changed the diolouge and everything. Sure they used the same animation but thats a bit different from using live action. Voltron isn't Golion is an adaption of it.

I would like to see PR try and do a new MMPR but no Sentai. This would make the show more like it was back in season 2 and 3.

Re: Should we need to depend on sentai footage only
 

no it wouldn't. Power Rangers was still using Sentai footage then as well notably in the case of Dairanger Gorma Monsters like Key Monster, Lipsyncher and Photomare but Beamcaster was another weird case since they shot original footage of Beamcaster but also decided to splice in some Dairanger shots of him in order to avoid needing to re-shoot his disappearing special effect as well as some of his Joker-esque bombs.

actually I'm sure they could make their own monsters if they wanted to it just would be rather expensive to do which is why they just typically keep original villains to 1 or 2 evil leaders and the mooks.

Keep in mind they made the Ghost of Darkness, Wizard of Deception, Cimmerian Planet's Messenger even though he was just simply a pasted in head for the most part, the Skelekron Warriors, Black Knight, The Dragon that Wes destroyed, Vypra's Demons from Time Force, Omni, 2 other monsters in Space Patrol Delta and that's just going episode-of-the-day creatures.

I think they could make their own zord if they really wanted to there just isn't a need to do so since they've had the zord footage that they needed.

However I do agree that I prefer them using the Sentai suits in original footage since I like seeing that. I like knowing what suits they have during the production.

Re: Should we need to depend on sentai footage only
 

The american producers should just use the sentai footage as it is. There is no reason why they should they can do a better job with the Sentai. Stick to the civilian sense and let Sentai handle the action.

Re: Should we need to depend on sentai footage only
 

Black Knight was original? Was the Zord battle?

Re: Should we need to depend on sentai footage only
 

Didn't know PR did so much original monsters back in the day. Lord Zedd was obvious.

Re: Should we need to depend on sentai footage only
 

I completely disagree. Like I keep on saying if you want Sentai then watch the Japanese version. Power Rangers should never be an American version of Sentai.

There was no zord battle in that episode. Black Knight was the evil Knight that was trying to get to the Battle Fire and killed the White Knight in the process of trying to get to it.

Yup that they did. They even recolored or fused some Sentai monsters to create semi-original monsters. To name just a few of them they were the Snow Monster in Storybook Rangers, Turkeyjerk also in Storybook Rangers, Repellator and of course Count Dregon's Plague Patrol. Some of their pieces on the 3 Plague Patrollers were original however.

Oh I was thinking of Knasty Knight. I think I remember the Black Knight being original now.
