Re: Go-Busters and PR
Mar. 18th, 2014 10:49 pmDear Saban,
I forgive you for not adapting Go-Busters if this was the pitch.
I honestly don't care for Amit Bhaumik's proposals. Much as the idea of LG + RPM = Go-Busters is...intriguing? frightening? hilarious? IT MAKES NO SENSE.
( Cut from my complaints in chat )
And another thing, having the Venjixes be the same? That's an insult to Dr. K's character development! You can't build up a character whose motivation and everything is "I fucked up and destroyed the world," then retcon it into "Oh, silly me! It was actually an evil alien computer from another dimension--my conscience is clear!" NO. K has to work her ass off to make things right. The day she puts in the source code that allows them to stall the progression of the virus inside Dillon to keep him from attacking everyone is the day she has to face everyone and tell them, "I killed your loved ones. I'm responsible for the death of Scott's brother and Summer's butler. I'm the reason Dillon has no memories and has a virus inside him."
She says, "Everything that's happened, everything you've all been through, it's all my fault." She is an atoner; the whole point of her character is to get past this one mistake that cost everyone everything. It leads to her deciding that "Even the most flawed human is better than the most perfect machine" and it leads to Dillon finally forgiving her and thanking her in the finale. Dr. K is one of the best written characters, particularly one of the best written female characters, in all of Power Rangers and for you to take away her sin? It's like telling Andros, "Actually, no, your sister was never kidnapped." Or telling Jen, "Alex wasn't dying--he was perfectly fine. Ransik never touched him. Also, he's breaking up with you."
So while I commend you on the idea of Kendrix as Mayor when I thought the same thing for Flynn in "The Messiah Protocol," fuck you, Amit. Especially for completing the genocide and leaving K the only one of her dimension left alive.
Edit: I read on
