In which I talk about the Beast Morphers team up epsiode


So, going around the rumor mill lately is a team up of current and past Power Rangers in an upcoming episode of Beast Morphers. This isn't too uncommon in Power Ranger series and with so many team up episodes in Super Sentai, the footage is available to make it happen. It wasn't really officially announced, just in the rumors as former Power Ranger actors were spotted in New Zealand where Beast Morphers (like most Power Rangers shows) is filmed. Well, non other than Austin St. John (the original Red Ranger) is said to be in an episode of Beast Morphers.

So the team up looks pretty much solid at this point and know what? I'm happy about that. I like the team up episodes and as generic as it may sound, MMPR is my favorite Power Rangers show. I never get tired of those episodes and that era, so seeing Jason show up in Beast Morphers (which I REALLY like) is a treat. Not to mention, since the footage is obviously coming from Kyoryuger vs Go Busters, that pretty much confirms the Dino Charge cast members being spotted near filming. Dino Charge is another PR series I REALLY like, so it will be great to see those Rangers in action again.

It's funny and just to once again prove my lack of organization, I don't always know what I'm going to write here each day. Sometimes I'll have a post in mind in advance, lot's of times I'm coming up with it not long before I write it. I'll have an idea, and either go with it or it turns into something else as I'm looking into that idea. Today as I was driving to work, I was thinking about Ranger Stop here in two months. I've been wanting to write something about Power Rangers all week, but didn't know what. Then wham damn the universe gave me a subject.

Whoop that ass.

Dino Bravery

Giant guns always improve robot dinosaurs.
I'm not going to lie, I didn't pay much attention to Dino Charge like I should have. After Megaforce ended I somehow never watched. I don't have much of an explanation, I thought it looked neat and as it went into Super Charge I took notice, but once again it largely passed me by. I did take notice of the Megazord toys, and thought they were great. As Ninja Steel began it's media push, I just went ahead and made a point to not let it slip by. I thought it looked neat, and didn't want to regret missing it.

So news of the new South Korean series Power Rangers Dino Force Brave, which is meant to be a sequel to the Super Sentai show Dino Force is based on, was posted last week to the various kaiju/toku sites/groups I follow. I'm not going to lie, it caught me off guard. Probably because of the use of Brave in the title, and the reworking of the Rangers and Megazord. It looks great, really great. The Dinoforce Megazord was already a good looking robot, but in the new white and red color schemes, and with new weapons like the chain gun and chainsaw sword. It really pops.

I'm hoping dubs of the short format show (15 minute episodes) will be easily available. I generally just watch clips of the Japanese shows as I'm not into torrenting (which seems to be the most accessible way to get the dubbed episodes) and as I've mentioned before, I like Power Rangers just fine as is. So, it's really enough for me.

What these clips have more importantly done is. They've turned up my desire to watch Dino Charge finally, and oh hey... that's right, it's on Netflix. So, thinking I'm going to start that pretty soon. I've been regretting not watching it and letting it slip by. Though I suppose there's plenty of time to make up for that now. I still regularly see that Megazord on shelves, think I should get it while I still can. It looks great and well...

I think I need it.

*edit* I binge watched Dino Charge shortly after writing this post. OMG it's amazing.
