Don't give me that, it wouldn't be the first time they completely changed the mentor during the switch, and I already gave my thoughts on why it's probably not Kaoru.shadowneko003 wrote:LOL

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
Oh...sorry. On another note, maybe Princess is Jii?
Though, if may I ask, who did they switch? *not familiar with anything pre-Hurricanger and anything post SPD unless I really did miss the switch*

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
It really says that a requirement for Red is he's a caucasian male. So, they'll probably tell everyone else to go away for Red. Have you by any chance seen the American Goku on YouTube?shadowneko003 wrote:That Guy wrote:Who is the princess supposed to be a parallel to? Tanba?
LOL
If this is real then...Welcome to Samurai High.
I hope non-white actors try out for Red. TJ, Shane, and Jack were good leaders. Dont know about Nick and Scott since I didn't watch MF and RPM

Basically every mentor from MMPR through Lost Galaxy was a completely different character from the respective Sentai's mentor. Not sure about Lightspeed Rescue or Time Force, but I'm pretty sure the princess from Wild Force and the guinea pig from Ninja Storm were direct transpositions of their Sentai counterparts. Dino Thunder...I guess Tommy qualifies as the mentor of that season, not sure who the Abarangers' mentor was. Doggy Cruger/Kruger from Deka/SPD speaks for himself. They changed out the plant from Magi for keeping the white ranger alive, though when Solaris Knight showed up he had the same role as Magishine to the team, so that's a half and half. They changed out Mr. Voice from Boukenger for Mack's dad in Overdrive. And I don't know a thing about Jungle Fury or RPM.

Jungle Fury was mainly RJ as the mentor, and RPM was Doctor K.

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
The character types roughly resemble Shinkenger, with Gold as the extra, and a princess....they're definitely adapting Shinkenger. Well, lets just hope that:
-they cast actors ie people that can act well, not pretty faces with just muscles.
-the action choreographers get it in their heads that these guys are samurais, not gymnasts. They stand their ground and cut down their enemies, and they don't do fancy backflips or somersaults.

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
I'm just happy they're doing Shinkenger. And I'm glad that 'they' means Saban again. It looks like this will be an attempt at an adpatation.

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
Has anyone else noticed this discrepancy? If it is an adaptation of Shinkenger, then what are they going to do about Genta's suit actor?forceflow wrote:[ GOLD RANGER - WESLEY ]
Any ethnicity male, 18 - 23 to play 17-19 years. He is on the slim side - 5'7" - 5'10". He is over animated, funny and affectionate, a Jim Carrey type but with no ego. He is a guy who grew up in the streets and is self taught fighter and a self taught computer programmer. Must have great comedic body movements.
I don't really know what to make of this...

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
The size are not that obvious unless he uses HyperShinkenGold. Assuming it's happening, they'll probably shoot more new fight scenes and use less footage for the Gold Ranger.

Not surprising really, while it wouldn't match I doubt they would care and assume kid's won't notice as per usual... but that's my guess.Anime_freek22 wrote:Has anyone else noticed this discrepancy?

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
Yeah, that's my guess. Jii and Kaoru have been combined into the one role, Princess Megan, for Power Rangers Samurai*.shadowneko003 wrote:Oh...sorry. On another note, maybe Princess is Jii?

*We should know the actual series name in a few days, the licensing show is on June 8th, that's this Tuesday.

Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
IT would be cool if they got him to come do it. I'm sure he would probably do it for not much more than a plane ticket(those can be expensive.)
Re: Casting Call for Saban's Shinkenger
Unless they can hire the same actor, I'd say the ShinkenBrown footage is unusable.Jedediah wrote:I call being Shinken Brown
