Default Can Power Rangers become a successful movie franchise?

Power Rangers has always been considered a kids property. Even the movies in the past were kids movies that really didn't do very well. So is it possible for them to make the jump not just back to the big screen...But to a successful movie franchise thar carters to the masses.

I'm just worried they are going to make it grim and dark.

I"ve always thought Power Rangers could make the successful leap to the big screen for a pg 13 audiences. In an age with the Avengers, Ninja Turtles, and Transformers, this should be do able.

I do have my fears right now though. I really like the trailer..But I am concerned that it by itself will not be enough to get adults to take the movie seriously. I am hoping for some sort of strong promotional push and a longer trailer.

Granted Transformers.had the same issues when its first movie came out. And it ended up doing tremendous. I remember having the same misgivings of people taking it as a serious franchise. And they have.

Why does everything have to be grim and dark?

I don't think we are saying we want it to be grim and dark. We are saying we want people to take it seriously as a movie franchise for adults and children. Something with an Avengers tone would be best.

I don't care about any of that. I want a fun movie that is true to MMPR. And it doesn't look like we are getting that.

The current preview clearly is trying to make people take Power Rangers seriously as a movie. franchise Notice how they don't even mention the word Power Rangers until that brief clip of Rita taunting Trini. It was clearly and attempt to pique people's interest and get them to see the movie. The question is ...Will it work?

Transformers's first teaser actually did the same thing.

I like that they have made it darker. And I think it has a chance to be a success.

I'm really not excited about the movie at all. It should be in continuity. I hate reboots.
