New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

This article was from a few weeks ago. Obviously just a rumor. But the talk about the new movie matches the rumors we have been getting there. A more mature series for a streaming services does sound like an interesting idea.

The whole dark and mature movement is silly. Thats just not what Power Rangers is. Its a family friendly children's show. Being dark and mature isn't going to do the franchise any good. Whats the point of doing a new series just to be dark and mature.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

The show really needs to he revamped..

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

They revamp the series every season. Every year starts with a new cast and storyline. What more can they do to revamp? The super dark and mature stuff isn't going to help at all.

That website is known for clickbate. So I wouldn't trust it.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

I figured we should take it with a grain of salt. Its real easy for rumors and speculation to be presented as fact on the net. Especially with a website designed to get clicks. There have been rumors like this in the past that turned out to be nothing. But it makes for an interesting discussion.

I don't know I think Hasbro has done a great job with Beast Morphers. Just give it a few more years to see how successful the brand is.

As for mature pr? If Hasbro was willing to fit the bill , a show aimed at teenagers or twenty somethings would be nice. I would have told you it was impossible years ago. But wih streaming sites paying big money for content, it isn't quite so far fetched. This could also make a movie more sellable in the long term. If said series is successful anyway.

I'm pleased with no kiss and no death stuff in PR.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

I just want to know what the obsession with dark and gritty stuff.

It's like I like shows like Rick, and Morty, and movies like Deadpool, and Guardians of the Galaxy so Power Rangers should have weird for the sake of weird humor, and the Rangers should be dumb assholes who go on weird adventures, and do stupid shit.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

Very true. It gets ridiculous when you make something over the top dark.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

You can find a kiddle ground though. For instance Time Force is darker then MMPR. But its not over the top dark and gritty like that Power/Rangers Fan Film.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

I think the terms dark and gritty are overused. But I definitely don't want PR to become ultra dark for no reason.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

I believe the movie rumors.but the tv show rumors sound far fetched.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

It really does sound far fetched. But the era of streaming services makes it more possible if not probable. We have seen tons of series produced based on concepts that never would have seen the light of day on traditional tv. The best change for it to happen is in this era.

A series based on the 2017 movie would be interesting. Even if it had a different cast ( which tends to happen when movies are adapted for a tv series). Of course the fact the movie didn't do well might discourage them from this. But it would be interesting to see these characters on a weekly series. Rita could be revived on the moon by Lokar or something...With new powers. And of course there is the angle with Tommy the movie teased in the credits.

Said series could and honestly probably would do there own thing. But its fun to speculate regardless. But would I treat this article with a heavy grain of salt? Definitely, especially since its been mentioned this tends to be a clickbate site. And its not like this kind of wild speculation hasn't existed before. I posted the link because it was at least interesting to talk about. Whats a message board without interesting topics?

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

This would be a horrible idea. You can't just do something completely original from Super Sentai. If you want a darker series just copy Super Sentai better...Or better yet watch Super Sentai.

Re: New Mature Power Rangers Series?
 

Power Rangers and Super Sentai are two separate shows. I see no need for PR to have to copy them verbatim. Also, Super Sentai has plenty of craziness.

I think the real road block to this type of thing is the funding. Even if you can find a home. Which I agree is much easier now that streaming is huge.
