Comic Timing Episode 265- RIP (?) Super Sentai, Peacemaker S2 and more with Julian Lytle

Leave a comment

As news broke this week on the possible farewell to the Super Sentai branding in Japan, we here at Comic Timing had to have longtime friend of the show Julian Lytle on to talk about it! Ian, Brandon, Donovan and Brent are also here to discuss just what the heck is going on with the franchise, how it all ties in to what is or isn’t happening with Power Rangers here in The States, how Bandai and Toei both can grow their reach in foreign markets, especially as Japan takes over the box office here in America and Gashapon has finally caught on, and more. Then we delve into a spoilery discussion on Peacemaker Season 2 and some convo on whether Matt Reeves Batman should be part of the DCU, some Marvel Zombies talk, our favorite superhero films of the year, recent reads, and even more where that came from!

And here’s the YouTube video version:

Comic Timing Extra Point – Episode 12: Fan Films and Power Rangers

Leave a comment

HipHopKido

Earlier this week, producer Adi Shankar and director Joseph Kahn put their 15 minute fan film Power/Rangers on the web. Three days later, the film has been taken off of both YouTube and Vimeo due to copyright claims by Saban Brands and its lawyers. You can still find the movie on Facebook, of which Shankar thanks for not bending to the copyright claim.

Ian is joined by The Black Box’s Shawn Pryor and Ignorant Bliss‘ Julian Lytle for this Extra Point to discuss the star-studded short in full (James Van Der Beek and Katee Sackhoff, seriously!), what some of the original Rangers thought about the short, along with where we think the upcoming Mighty Morphin Power Rangers reboot may go as a film, what fan films mean to the industry as a whole, what it takes to make a mature film versus a mature content film, and a whole lot more where that came from!
