Power Rangers Megaforce the next series title? Yep!

Recently, Saban Brands through Power Rangers LLC trademarked the title “Power Rangers Megaforce”, which, as you can imagine, has led a lot of people to speculate on whether or not this is in fact the title of the next Power Rangers series, a.k.a. the Goseiger adaption. Here’s a copy of the trademark:

I know it’s not very big, but you can still see that it doesn’t really mention anything in the copyright application about a live-action television series, but it does mention a truck load of merchandise, mostly video, computer and possibly app games, electronics cases, DVDs featuring live-action entertainment for kids, music, and eyewear/eyewear accesories. It sounds like the typical merchandise setup for a new series, only with no series confirmation, or any children’s toys for that matter.

So then, even with nothing confirming a new live-action series, do you think that this is unofficial confirmation for a new series, possibly the Goseiger adaption? Or do you believe that this is something else? Personally, I’m not sure what to think. The name itself is so unspecific that it could be applied to anything. For all we know, this could be something similar to the “Super Legends” line that came out in ’07 with PROO. Or maybe (and this is really wishful thinking) they could be working on their own version of Power Rangers Online, the MMORPG that was announced last month in South Korea. This is all speculation, of course, so we’ll just have to wait for confirmation from Saban.

And while the series name is still mystery, we do have some info on two ACTUAL casting sides for the next Ranger series. The casting sides for the Pink Ranger and the role of the Professor are available for download here, and it looks like from these casting sides that the series will return to it’s high-school-kids-turn-superheroes roots. Yeah, teenagers with attitude!

UPDATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!: WE have official confirmation that this is the name of the next series! Check out the copyrights here:

Yep, it’s the application for tradmarks for a live-action television show! We now have a name, let’s see how long it is before we can see a face.

Sixth Rangers included in Ranger Cross game: Sorry, no Goranger sixth member. :P

Hey, some new screen shots have been added to the official website for the upcoming game Super Sentai Battle: Ranger Cross that feature the Sixth Rangers from three of the featured teams. Check them out below:

Here, we have two shots of Goseiger‘s GoseiKnight, definitely wouldn’t want to be on the receiving end of that attack. Am I mistaken, or his blade in that attack the wrong color?

And here we have ShinkenGold with his finishing move. Note the Shinkenger-style decorations in the background.

And finally, we have Go-Onger‘s Go-On Wings. I guess they count as a single Ranger? 😛

So far, there’s been no confirmation on whether or not Go-KaiSilver will also be in the game. Of course, with all these other past Sixth Rangers included in the game, why wouldn’t he be? And no, there won’t be a Sixth Ranger from Goranger included, for very obvious reasons.

Super Sentai Battle: Ranger Cross will be released on September 8th (wait, that’s tomorrow! And it’s already the 8th in Japan!) for 5800 yen, for the Nintendo Wii.

Power Rangers Miracle Force OP and ED: Korean is a fun language!

Months ago, we reported that the series Tensou Sentai Goseiger was going to be dubbed in Korean and air in South Korea under the title Power Rangers Miracle Force. Well, the series has debutted in South Korea, and now we have the new OP and ED for the newly dubbed series! Let’s watch and listen to the “new” theme songs:

Miracle Force OP:

Miracle Force ED:

They’re pretty good renditions of the original Japanese theme songs by NoB and Takahashi Hideyuki (both from Project.R). Interestingly enough, both theme songs were performed in Korean by Sang-geol Lee. Not sure who that is, but I’m very interested in finding out. Anyway, what do you guys think of the new Korean versions?

Super Sentai Battle:Ranger Cross First TV Spot!

The first 30-second TV spot for the upcoming game Super Sentai Battle: Ranger Cross has aired, and now that commercial has made its way to YouTube! Check out the preview below:

Don’t you just feel as excited as the kids in that commercial!!! (Okay, maybe not that excited, but still).

In the game, the Go-Kaigers go up against the villain Devil Jark, whose sole mission is to prevent our heroes from obtaining the Greatest Treasure in the Universe. You play as the five teams mentioned before (Go-Kaiger, Goseiger, Shinkenger, Go-Onger, and Goranger), and fight a villain each round both on foot and in a giant robot fight!

The game will be available September 8th for the Wii, and includes a DX Go-KaiRed RangerKey.

Power Rangers Casting Sides Released: Goseiger it is!

Two weeks ago, we learned from an inside source that Saban would be having casting calls sometime this month for the next batch of Power Rangers for the 2012 season. A week later, we found out that they had cancelled the bigger casting call event, with no reason given. Well, now we’ve learned that they are going to hold auditions for the 2012 Power Rangers season!

While no big announcement has been made, casting call “sides” have popped up on services like Showfax.com, and the parts shown so far are for the Red, Black, Blue, Yellow, and Pink Rangers, indicating a Goseiger adaption. Other people have already purchased/downloaded the sides, and so far it seems to be the same sides that they posted for the Power Rangers Samurai auditions [last year’s casting sides here]. They’re even using the same casting director, Iris Hampton, who at one time listed Power Rangers in her Facebook job description, but had to change it because of overzealous fans constantly bothering her. Anyway, here’s an excerpt from one of the casting sides, courtesy of PowerAnimals:

POWER RANGER SIDES
SADIE (PINK RANGER) – AVA (YELLOW RANGER)

• AUDITION ADDRESS
1950 Sawtelle Blvd Suite 270
Los Angeles, CA 90025
PRUSACasting@aol.com
• Please correspond by email if you need to re-schedule your audition time.
• If you are running late please note that my audition schedule for the week of August
22nd is Monday through Thursday from 10-noon and 1:00-5:00 PM.
• Please park on street – metered parking
• Please bring 2 headshots and resumes.

EXT. HALLWAY – DAY

SADIE stands outside the gym where the rescued children play. She is wounded
just above her right hip. Slowly, she sits on the floor and leans against the wall.

AVA comes looking for her.

AVA
SADIE, SADIE, are you okay?

SADIE
Yes, it’s nothing.

AVA notices blood.

AVA
You’re injured. Let me see.

SADIE
I told you. Don’t worry. Just go back. I’ll meet you inside.

AVA
I won’t leave you like this.

SADIE
I’m fine, please.

AVA
I think you need to rest a while.
The kids are fine.

SADIE looks into the room and sees a group of girls playing with dolls and toys.

SADIE
I always wanted to play like that.

SADIE turns to AVA. She smiles but is sad.

SADIE (CONT’D)
I never got to play with other girls. When I was young,
all I wanted to do was play house, pretend I was the mom, but…I
always had to practice, to train…I’m sorry for
talking this way. I don’t quite feel like myself.

AVA
It’s okay. That’s your dream? To marry…

SADIE
Sometimes, I just wish I could have a normal life; become a normal
wife, maybe even a normal mother one day.

AVA
I am sure you will be all of those things.

SADIE
Well, that was the plan. But sometimes, I think
about what would happen if we…

AVA
I know…
Sadie brushes it off with a smile.

SADIE
I’m sorry. I’m just being…such a

AVA
No. It’s fine. I understand.

SADIE
Let’s go back inside. C’mon. I don’t know
what’s gotten into me. I’m getting so emotional…
Sadie smiles to AVA and tries to get back up, but she is
held back by the shooting pain in her side.

Very deep stuff. 😛 Anyway, like it said in the thing, auditions will be held next Monday, the 22nd, until Thursday the 25th, from 10:00-Noon and 1:00-5:00 pm. You’ll need to email them to set up an audition time. If you’d like to download any of the other sides, just click the Showfax.com link above.

For anyone out there bold enough to try out, I say good luck to you! Break a leg, just not your own!

Super Sentai 199 Hero TV Special: YES!

Just came across this tv special for Go-Kaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Battle, thought you might want to watch it too. It’s basically an extended preview of the movie, but it does have a lot of info and background on the movie, and it covers past series as well. Check them out right here:

Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_BVr40uwi8&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O112ezEXKQc&feature=mfu_in_order&list=UL

I would’ve have embedded the video itself, but the share button doesn’t want to work. 😛

Anyway, it is a good special, you get to see a lot of the movie, and get a little insight into the background. This is the longest Sentai movie made yet, so I don’t think there will be too many spoilers. And it debuted at No.2 in it’s first weekend at the box office, so that should say something in regards to the movie itself.

Goseiger to air in Korea: Power Rangers Miracle Force! (No, I didn’t make this title up!)

That’s right folks! Starting next month, Tensou Sentai Goseiger will air in South Korea under the title Power Rangers Miracle Force. It will be part of the ongoing Korean dubbing of Sentai series under the “Power Rangers” title. It will be replacing the currently running Power Rangers Jungle Force (aka Hyakujuu Sentai Gaoranger). Here are some promotional pics:

For anyone who doesn’t know, there has been an ongoing dub project for Sentai series in South Korea since Abaranger premiered there under the title “Power Rangers Dino Thunder” (the original Disney-produced American Dino Thunder never aired there). Almost every series following Abaranger has been dubbed over and aired in Korean, with the only exception being Shinkenger (due mostly to cultural differences, and their grudge against Japan, at least to some extent).

Power Rangers Miracle Force will air July 2011.

And just so that we’re clear, THIS IS A KOREAN DUB OF THE ORIGINAL SENTAI SERIES, THIS IS NOT SABAN GETTING AHEAD OF ITSELF. IF SABAN DECIDES TO MAKE GOSEIGER INTO A RANGER SERIES, I’LL BE SURE TO LET YOU KNOW. This is just for those of you who might see this article and think this is an announcement for the next Saban’s Power Rangers Series.

Go-Kaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Update: Nearly there!

Earlier today, there was a pre-screening of the Go-Kaiger Goseiger Super Sentai 199 Hero Great War Movie (yes, I know I keep fogetting to include the whole title), and some people have reported on some of the scenes from the movie. Here are some of the things they’ve reported seeing:

If you’d rather not have the movie ruined by spoilers, then stop reading here. But if you don’t live in Japan, then I would suggest that you just go ahead and read on, because we all know it’ll be months before we get to see it.

• In one scene the change into Dynaman and use Dynaman’s “Big Explosion” to finish off a troop of Gorims that were behind them. Reedeming themselves for getting their butts handed to them using Dynaman’s power, I see.
• Go-KaiSilver was also in the movie, but he didn’t have a real speaking role, like when Accel showed up in the Decade/W Movie Taissen 2010. No word on if Gai Ikari shows up in some cheesy fashion at the end of the movie like Ryu did, though.
• They don’t get a Great Power from the Goseigers, so that probably means that there will be a separate Goseiger tribute episode. And Navi is the one who brings back GoseiKnight.
• At the end, the Goseigers return the RangerKeys to the pirates. I have a feeling that there going to find some big flashy way to give all the past Sentais their powers back at the end of the series.

•  During the robo figh scene, there WASN’T some big gattai with all of the past robos, but they did use all of their finishing moves together. In some cases, they had to use old footage for some of the attacks from the older series robos. They just can’t quite fight like they use to, I guess.
• At one point, Zangyack corners GoseiGreat, and Akaranger and Big One fly in to save them. Shiba Kaoru, along with some of the other extra heroes, have appeared with them.
• The Extra Heroes end up getting chased down by the Gormins, when Rio, Mele, and Wolzard Fire show up to help.

That’s all that’s been said of the movie, I’m sure there will be more about as we get closer to 11th. If anything else pops up about this or anything else, I’ll be sure to let you know.
