It's hard to imagine this working well....Ryan,<br /><br />It's hard to imagine this working well. You make an excellent point about the problem of meshing the CGI Rangers with the live-action human world. The human characters in RESCUE RANGERS tended to be caricatural in nature. The few times they weren't, such as in "Flash the Wonder Dog," the effect was a bit jarring. Putting the Rangers in a live-action world would be rather like making BOLT and putting the same animal characters into the real world. It would have looked completely phony. <br /><br />I think Disney regards this idea as its "answer" to SMURFS and ALVIN AND THE CHIPMUNKS and it WILL probably play up the pop-culture references. No matter that the original show was decidedly light on that kind of humor, focusing instead on adventure and character interactions.<br />Poor Dale, he'll probably have to shoulder the brunt of the modern-day stuff. Better get his hoody fitted.<br /><br />If one good thing can come of this, it's that the need for publicity might convince Disney to finish releasing the "Golden Age" WDTVA series.<br /><br />ChrisChris Barathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06845538037091279990noreply@blogger.com
