So in light of the news that Saban is making a new Mighty Morphin Power Rangers movie francise.

Do you think they should stick with the original suit. Update it or go for a completely new style?

Post pictures if you can find something you like on the internet. I'm voting for a new suit.

 

[DonMigs85]

Probably new suits, but the designs in the 1995 movie were pretty good.

 

[Ravek]

Both?

Both.

 

[chickdigger802]

depends on their audience they are targeting for, and budget.

i'd love for them to get legacy effects to design suits that are an evolution of the old movie's, but more streamlined.

something like the new robocop or the pacific rim suits + old helmets.

 

[Shadownet]

I'm loving this design, kinda remind of Arbiter from Halo. But it look mysterious, and actually look like a battle suit instead of cheap costume.

Don't even get me started on how the gold is throughout his body instead of just the chest piece.

Dude, there are new suits every series. No need to go retro, they can mix and match from 20 years of Power Ranger history.

 

[jstripes]

Seeing as the Super Sentai series that it's based off has new outfits every year... why?

Looks more like the Guyver armor, which in my opinion, should be more of how the overall look of the Power Rangers should go with rather than the skin tight uniforms.

 

[G-Fex]

Even if they do find a way to make it work, guarantee people will nitpick it.

 

[Lionel Mandrake]

Does the word "morphin" bother anyone else?

 

[Sn4ke_911]

Wait, wait, wait.... the new Power Rangers movie will be about the BEST POWER RANGERS EVER "MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS" ??!!!

HOLY FUCK, now i'm so in.

 

[Toki767]

They'll probably make the original ones more modern. The original movie had fancier suits for instance.

Metamorphosis Lionel! That's what billy said at least.

I forgot about Guyver. But yeah. Its a battle suit, if a cosplayer can make a power rangers suit and it actually look legit, then you're doing something wrong.

Gotta have some pads. The 1995 movie suit was pretty good.

Because Americans are insanely nostalgic for the MMPR costumes.
A lot of it is probably due to spending 3 years with them, as opposed to the once-a-year style Super Sentai uses. Thankfully, they stopped using the MMPR costumes when Zeo rolled around.

 

[Zebra]

Not as badly as animorph does.

 

[Shadownet]

The only one that had a problem with it if I remember was Phillipine? They changed morphin to something else when the show was broadcasted there.

 

[G-Fex]

How come people don't like Zeo? I liked Zeo.

 

[GekigangerV]

Does the word "morphin" bother anyone else?

My brother had a teacher in elementary school who thought it was "morphine" and thought power rangers promoted drug use.

 

[chickdigger802]

i feel like the recent GI joe snake eyes suit is a good place to start.

 

[Sn4ke_911]

 

[G-Fex]

what is that shit?

 

[Shadownet]

How come people don't like Zeo? I liked Zeo.

My best friend love Zeo a lot so don't worry. You're not the only one.


I know this is unrealistic. But I like this design too. Give everyone a sense of individuality. Maybe it could be an upgrade power mode.

Or if they wanted to do a MMPR cartoon show.

 

[Thatonemoor]

Ewwwwwwwwwwwww

Pink and Yellow's spines are made of silly puddy apparently.

Poster of a garbage fan movie.


This looks pretty cool but definitely needs more Tommy!

Edit: There he is!

I will start a riot if they ditch the white gloves and boots.

i like this

 

[.GqueB.]

I feel like they should look more "armor"y. It never made sense that they put on those spandex suits and were suddenly able to take so many crazy hits. The movie tried to solve for this which I appreciated.

Even as a kid I questioned that shit.

Hmm yes, this is delicious.

 

[G-Fex]

fan shops are the fucking worst ew

Did Rob Liefeld design these?

 

[ReiGun]

Probably going to redesign them. The original suits are actually really good, but probably not gonna fly in a big Hollywood production in 201X.

Does the word "morphin" bother anyone else?

Outside of the battle cry ("It's Morphin Time!"), yes. That word actually does bother me.

 

[bagandscalpel]

When did Char become a sentai hero?

 

[Odoul]

It blew my mind when the first movie gave them actual armor instead of velcro spandex and Pay Less boots.

I say go for broke and get the who designed Gears of War on it.

Giant 300 pound uniforms.

Hulking weapons of mass destruction looking Zords.

All bright neon Primary colors.

 

[Archpath1]

Vanquish armor ,different colors.

or those suits from pacific rim.

I like these, though not quite the action poses of the Pink and Yellow Rangers, but the design idea for the first quote, and the size difference between Rangers on the second.

 

[kevo_huevo]

IMDB page says the budget is only 42k

edit: i see that poster up top is for the fan-made movie, with a 42k budget

Crap... We gotta do a kickstarter guys!!

Yeah the poses are ridiculous, but the design are pretty sweet. White ranger chest piece and helmet are just amazing.

I love that first pic. I could see the other rangers being the same with white lining instead of gold. Maybe subtle differences between the armors.

Fix the helmet and its great.

 

[Shadownet]

Fix the helmet and its great.

I almost forgot but its missing the symbol in the middle. Then we'll be good.

 

[sixteen-bit]

appeal to the youth of today

...or at least the mid-aughts, lol

 

[Shadownet]

It always bugged me how the holster are always flapping around when they fight. It need another belt to secure it properly.

New Power Ranger Designs

 

[MHWilliams]

Wait, wait, wait.... the new Power Rangers movie will be about the BEST POWER RANGERS EVER "MIGHTY MORPHIN POWER RANGERS" ??!!!

HOLY FUCK, now i'm so in.

Not even anywhere near the best season.

Why would you recast everyone but Jason David Frank? Reboot, new movie, new cast.

 

[RPGCrazied]

I'd like to see the Power Rangers ip get a bigger budget. I haven't watched it in quite some time, but I always remember it for its laughable budget and special of effects. Has it got any better today? I'm going to say no.

 

[Nakazato]

Mbj and gambino oh ok. *opens wallet*

 

[Yazuka]

Have I missed something? Are they making a new MMPR movie?

Why? The guy is still in amazing shape and can easily pull it off.
