the end of Overdrive - Page 2

The characters were selfish and not very likeable. The robot plot really made Hartford look like a jerk. Nobody was likeable. The mutli villain storyline was wasted. Thrax was a big bus that made no sense. The team up was lackluster. They became slaved to the Sentai Footage by the end like most Kalish seasons. The ending also made no sense in keeping with the topic of this thread.

None of the characters really grew or learned anything in the end. Any attempt to demonstrate this in the finalie felt forced and fake.

Overdrive just never felt like there was anything really on the line. And this is demonstrated in the last elisode. Which features the Rangers defeating a Crown powered Flurious rather easily. Which was ridiculous given that the Carana Aurora was built up as a big deal and the very thing all fctions were trying to obtain for unlimited power.

The final battle was very lacking. It just didn't feel big enough. Especially with the crown involved. The whole finalie felt rushed too. Which is a shame since they had all year to tell the story.

Flurious didn't know how to properly use the Carona Aurora. If he would have been a allowed to possess it longer he would have. Which would have made him impossible to beat. Which is why it was crucial for Mack to sacrifice himself when he did.

OO was always more about the search for the jewels and not as much the bad guys. The villains were just a road block to this.

Overdrive was pretty boring. And the ending made it feel even more pointless. The Crown should have given Flurious instant power. Power so great that he should have been just about invincible. Otherwise why was it so crucial to stop the villains from finding it? Any old Ranger team could have defeated Super Flurious.

The season was actually fine. The ending was just so lackluster. The final battle was just so ordinary and really a cop out. The only worst fight is in "Time For Lightspeed". Where Vypra and her monster are defeated in a very lame way. But the end of Overdrive is still pretty bad.

Flurious just wasn't an interesting villain. They would have been better off keeping Thrax around and having him be the main villain. With a more consistent back story.

Overdrive should have been a Space Season. The multiple faction angle would have been perfect. Thrax could have been Dark Specter's son trying to build a new UAE.

Krypto Ranger · 12/08/16, 09:43 PM

The final battle was very lackluster. It felt like the battle at the end of a typical episode. Flurious felt like just another monster of the day when he was supposed to be the big bad. I don't think he was the best choice. Miratrix should have ended up in the spot. Since they could have done an American produced sequence with her and Matt.
