PR Fan wrote:Excellent review to the Casual Fan/non Power Ranger fan Albert, but there is One MAJOR Nitpicking It's Udonna clearly shown in the Opening Credits. I didn't check throughlly but All Main 5 Rangers Are New Zealander's except Xander who is an Australian(Luke made that mistake last year but I corrected it). Clare is a good character/the actress who played her has been in SPD as the Nova Ranger and Krysta in Dino Thunder who we find out more about her past on what should be the Third MF DVD.
Also concerning History, it's at least far better then Wormhole(The other Teamup) in terms of continuity and episode order(Wormhole is infamous for being aired first on The Candadian Family Channel).
Another thing yes being a WF fan myself i do agree PRIS had easily the greatest Finale in C2D and in terms of Dino Thunder Tommy was back full time after a long span which seemed to be a relief to Most Fans.
The Only PR Season DVD to have 5 Episodes from one season was S.P.D, since Dino Thunder had 3 DT Episodes and the 2 part finale of Ninja Storm and Ninja Storm volume 1 had 3 episodes also.
Sorry it took so long to reply to this, PR Fan!
Anyways, as a casual PR viewer (like, once a year if it's not PRIS), I probably was harder on the series than I should have been, but then again, I wasn't its intended target audience. The nitpicks could have been easily corrected, but my resources were simply the DVD, Wikipedia, and occasionally I'd check Power Rangers Central (I think that's the site). But I felt if some things didn't need to be mentioned, I wouldn't bother mentioning it. After all, would it really matter to someone's enjoyment of PRMF that the actors are New Zealanders? I had originally mentioned it, then cut it out, then put it in again, then I must've cut it out again. If you knew how much trouble Lukester and I had trying to get the review up, you'd know that there were multiple versions of the review, lol.
Anyways, again, I'm glad you enjoyed the review, and there are a couple screw-ups on my part (due to not enough time to make sure everything was 100% accurate), but for my first outing as an official UD reviewer, I'm glad someone took the time to fully read through it all.
As for the upcoming Commander in Chief review...I hate to have to post here with no good news...well, it may be good, or bad...but there is news.
I got the review DVD from Lukester on Wednesday (the 28th). I've gone through the first disc, and watched about half of the second disc. The review is about 63% done, I simply have to finish episode descriptions (they're a bitch to write...try condensing 40-odd minutes of an episode into a couple sentences), along with more thoughts and summary of the series (I find myself straying into what went wrong with the show instead of summarizing what it was about, so I'm working on fixing that). The bonus features section is pretty easy (read: none, not even disc previews!), and the technical parts are a bore, but someone's gotta do them.
Anyway, I hope to get the review to Lukester by the end of the week, if I'm lucky.
Thankfully, one of the roomies got his computer working, so my internet is no longer limited to 45 minutes a week. I'll likely be on it 60 minutes a week now. Or at least twice a week. We'll see.
BTW, Lukester, I noticed no one's reviewing Night Stalker (2005). Even though I can't take screencaps, could I write a review for that after CiC? I picked it up a few weeks ago and I'll figure out how to get screencaps to you (I"m back in Jersey in a month, so I'll probably be able to steal-ahem-borrow Kram's laptop for screencap capabilities...).
