Hopefully, this fan series can stay up on YouTube, unlike the creative Marvel Zombies vs Army of Darkness fan film that was yanked by Marvel.

EVIL REBUILT. POWER REBORN. - As the world celebrates the 20th anniversary of the Power Rangers, a controlling paramilitary group known as The Silver Guardians has taken over the duty of protecting the citizens of Angel Grove. Claire Ashmore (Dina Cataldi) is a former top soldier of the Silver Guardians, until she unearths the plans made by the head of the organization, General E.A. Collins (John Damroth). For the first time on the other side of a conflict, Claire must stop the Silver Guardians before it is too late. She will stumble upon the help of the ancient mythological being known as Zordon, the former mentor of the Power Rangers, as she unravels the mystery and attempts to steal the Power Morphers from the Silver Guardians.

A new war has begun between the Power Rangers, The Silver Guardians and the returning Lord Zedd!

This is a "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers" fan film starring Dina Cataldi, Don Money, Jerry Murdock, Ashley Carvalho, Kimberly Carvalho, Ricky Barksdale, John Damnroth, Mack Khur and Matt Meinsen. Directed by Dominick Sivilli.

Lol I always wondered what a realistic approach to power rangers might look like

Looks interesting. I'm always impressed with what people are able to do for fan projects like this. Out of nostalgia, I'd prefer to see adult versions of the original teenage characters (even if they wouldn't be able to get the same actors). If the original rangers were like 16 or 17, 20 years later they'd be in their late 30s which could work for a gritty fan reboot.

Hopefully SABAN isn't as anal about fan-films like Marvel Studios is.
Also, the sound effects in that trailer remind me of the Robocop trailer.

Really digging the girl power feel of this.
Also, it looks pretty cool.
It's certainly a fresh perspective on a classic and timeless show.

Prop to people who do films like this.
No matter the production value they have the heart to make things happen.

So for everyone who think they can do better.. do better, till then please refrain from opening your geek hole.

Don't hate
Participate.

On a side note, I believe this is the MMPR fan-film that got Robert Axelrod to return and voice Lord Zedd, the original voice of Zedd

"Really digging the girl power feel of this."

At least somebody is. That's the only thing that sticks out like a sore thumb.

Much of the trailer focuses on the one female ranger, instead of the team, which seems off for the MMPR dynamic. The blue ranger stands alone - heroically defiant of the pigheaded, testosterone-fueled, misogynistic establishment responsible for leading Angel Grove, and undoubtedly the world, into uncertain doom.

Then, the team lineup at the bottom of the first poster reinforces that this is a girl powered team. We got the star of the trailer out in front, so, we can assume she is the team leader. Then directly behind her, we have the pink and yellow rangers. Their placement is suggestive of their prominence to the team in contrast to the 2 guys in the back. So, if blue is off on a solo mission, relax, we got 2 more leveled headed females to take over until she returns.

I could be wrong, but IMO, it seems like they're going out of their way to say "who runs (or saves in this case) the world? Girls!"

They should remake a movie, juste like the one they did in the 90's.

That stick-waving dancing and flipping chick from the movie was hot, bring her back !

Blue rangers as leader? [frick] THAT! I don't care if its a girl or a guy. Red ranger is the leader, blue is second in command. Don't [frick] with that order!

Anyway, I'd like a Power Rangers film. Not MMPR, but their own thing.

@SuperDude001, exactly. I agree totally... Not to start trouble or anything, but, it's kinda hard not to notice. I thought it was just me.

That also doesn't feel right to me too, @yonny616. It's cool they want to put their own stamp on it, but, some things should be consistent with all the others. If Millie Badass is the leader, then she should be the red ranger.

I'll give it a shot when it comes out. It'd be nice to see JDF or other Power Rangers alums make an appearance.
