Why is the reversioning so reviled?

Fire&Thunder · 12/08/14, 06:29 PM

So, they added cheesy and cheap comic book and animesque effects to a (charmingly in my opinion) cheesy and cheap show. Sometime it got excessive but other times it just seemed like whatever.

My only real issues with the reversioning was they edited out Squatt spiking the drinks in Foul Play in the Sky, which made no fucking sense.

Oh and I detested that Disney still did their stupid 32 episode rule (its not like it wasn't already a cheap project for them) when they should have had at least done 40 episodes, or if they only had time for 32 episodes, skip 8 of the boring episodes so you can end on Doomsday part 2.

Which reminds me imagine if the 32nd episode in production order was like Green Candle part 1. The reversioning would have ended on a cliffhanger

The bad graphic edits were a huge turn off. Adding text to the putty battles ruined them. They took a show that looked fine and made a lot of silly unneeded edits. I would have rather then just reshow MMPR season 1 as is. Thankfully Saban Brands has steered clear of the revision entirely.

I think the fact that they just took the first season added a bunch of effects tried to pass it off as a new season had something to do with it.

I kinda liked it. It was funny. But I prefer MMPR the way it was.

What a terrible way to reintroduce MMPR to a new audience! It was just a lame way of putting together a cheap "new season". Just show MMPR as it is. Smartest thing Saban Brands did was distancing itself from the revision.

Yeah pretty dumb, of course if it was up to me they would have just showed Turbo. But not many people seem to like Turbo as much as me lol.

Its bad enough we had to deal with 90s hacked dubs of animes. We don't need to hack something that was already an hacked version of something else. Why mess with MMPR?

They should have just done a 20 episode season or something. They could have saved money and still had something to sell. Its better than trying to mess with MMPR and call it new.

I'd rather forget that it even happened. Its just like Saban Moon to me. But at least that was just a failrd piolet that only leaked out years later. I dont't know why they thought fans would be okay with this instead of a real new season.

Saban Moon ? Don't even get me started.on that lol.
