I don't think people wanted to see a movie version of MMPR. SPD would have made for the best movie.

Yeah most of my friends who are lapsed fans weren't lured in by the promotion. I decided to give it a try and really enjoyed it.

The promotion was really bad and made the film look like it was a bad movie. Which is too bad because it turned out to be pretty good.

An SPD movie would have done worse because most wouldn't have known what SPD was. The majority of the public doesn't even know the show went on after Morphin.

Power Rangers became a phenomenon as MMPR, if the movie was ever going to work it was as a movie version of MMPR. That was what had the time and previous phenom status to trade in on Nostalga. And while the promotion could have probably done better I think at the end of the day, as good as the movie was, most see Power Rangers as nothing but a silly show from the 90's with people in silly suits fighting rubber beast who knock over cardboard buildings.

Yeah, it is still on today so clearly they did something right, but it didn't have the mass appeal that they hoped it did and had way to goofy or origins to non hardcore fans to be seen as something that could work like Marvel movies do.

MMPR was probably the best to go with. I think the previews needed a few extra scenes to entice viewers..

Maybe another trailer would have helped?

I was actually surprised they got so much promotion. I thought it was going to be worse.

I think its more that people didn't like it was not in continuity.

They should have shown more of the scenes with the teens and their problems. Like the first teaser traIler had in it.

Its just that enough movie goers weren't excited to see a pr movie. Sometimes it just happens and is really no ones fault.
