grey ghost Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 As someone who never watched Power Rangers, permit me to ask a stupid question: how would a big budget movie be that different to Pacific Rim? Neon ninja fights, major nostalgia factor, more "interesting" villians. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wileECoyote Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Comicbookmovie is on suicide watch right now. They just don't seem to be able to process how Turtles could double Guardians on this Friday. They need to learn some coping skills. It's not as if GotG fell off the rails. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eXtacy Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I don't think pokemon could be done on any reasonable budget, realistic looking creatures are hard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

filmscholar Posted August 9, 2014 Author Share Posted August 9, 2014 (edited) I had the pleasure of living overseas and I saw the original Japanese Power Rangers. There was like over 20 Different Power Rangers shows. So it's funny to me seeing the American Versions just remix all the different Japanese versions. As for a reboot. Of course. The 1st movie did OK. Pokemon is a no brainier. But I don't think Bay will touch any of these franchises. Bay reppin for the 80's.

Alpha Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I don't think pokemon could be done on any reasonable budget, realistic looking creatures are hard They were able to do it with GOTG. If they had a similar budget, then it could easily work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No we are talking about realistic enough rendering of at least 50 species of Pokemon, and you have to have different shapes and sizes of the same pokemon. Add in water, fire, leaf, wind, etc Its a huge undertaking. I'am thinking another 10 years of advancements with CGI rendering techniques. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't puppets be cheaper than CGI. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
