I really should be doing something else (Dissertation, essay, reading). I'm having a fail at concentrating on anything important week. The only thing I've managed to do for days is wrestle with the University Library journal system (Which doesn't have access to half the articles that might be useful (Read: Make vague oblique reference to in ( Read more... )

This:

"Some of my enjoyment of the series is tied to my ability to believe the character in the suit is the one who we've seen transform into the guy in the suit."

Really struck a cord with me. I mean, yeah, you've totally got to believe that it is the same person. Otherwise you're never going to get into it. Strange how I never thought about it that way before - thanks for pointing that out. :D

Go-Onger was fun, but nothing special. I'm much more excited about how the *bleep* they're going to Power Ranger-rize that one. DCD is not doing it for me, with the sole exception of Mori Kanna. But she's not worth sitting through a whole episode for. I think it's too early to tell if Shinkenger is going to be great or not. Again, I agree with you, the lack of "wow" factor is probably a good thing here. We'll see how it looks at the end of the season, eh?

Take it easy!

I saw the trailer for Power Rangers RPM. It looks interesting. And I'm holding out hope it'll get better writing and a decent budget this year since KR: Dragon Knight seems to be gathering pace (Though I still prefer Ryuki my several million miles).

I'm still enjoying Decade myself more for Yuusuke than any other member of the cast though.

I hope RPM is better than Dragon Knight, DR is, just, painful. The pacing is too fast and the dialogue is sparse. It's like they're too busy fighting to develop the characters! The dialogue seems to be just 1-line question, 1-line answer between the boys, and stupid thinks-I'm-cool-'n'-funny 1-liners for the girls. Maybe it was just the episodes I saw, but I couldn't take it. Jungle Fever, ah, Jungle Fury has done very well, so I think RPM will be getting a lot of love (read: money) and attention.

I'm always excited about new Power Rangers!

Don't forget the Kit and Len homo eroticism.

I thought it was just me making that one up, perhaps I'm not as crazy as I thought! ;p I certainly was too scared to type "Kit and Len homo eroticism" into google to check if anyone else thought it too....

The folks on Rangerboard are thinking along similar lines.
