One where the track gets a virus or something and all the obstacles and such get put up to max difficulty and nobody can shut down the computer that controls it, and another episode where they had to race through a snowy forest and a few of the characters got lost in a night blizzard and they had to go find them.

    As a quick reminder 1 thing that wasn’t mentioned that the power rangers franchise was owned by Disney up until power rangers RPM not SPD. The rights were then sold back to Saban due to the success of marvel at Disney. The show then ran at Nickelodeon in 2011 until 2021.
    In 2018 the franchise had its final season ran by the saban as it was bought by Hasbro. Ever since then the show has had 3 seasons under the hasbro name. Power rangers beast morphers and power rangers Dino fury.
    The 2nd and 3rd season power rangers cosmic fury is a 3rd season to Dino fury and is aired exclusively on Netflix. Hasbro now wants to reboot the entire series so it can use all American footage instead of Japan super sentai footage that was being used previously.
    Regardless the franchise has been everywhere and despite it going through ownership hell.
    It’s still going strong.

    Actually, Haim Saban created Saban Brands in 2010 to buy back Power Rangers and a few shows related to it from Disney and also bought back Digimon in 2012, but Saban Brands would be closed in 2018 after they sold Power Rangers and several of it’s other properties to Hasbro. The last series that was being produced by Saban before shutting down was Rainbow Butterfly Unicorn Kitty, which was a collaboration with toy company Funrise. Overall, I was a fan of Saban stuff back in my childhood, mostly Power Rangers and Digimon, but their still fun to watch and I like their twirly-doo logo, but it does suck to hear about the company’s history of poor decisions and sometimes terrible treatment towards the some of the people that worked for them.

    A few mistakes and omissions in this. Of note being Shuki Levy marrying and Abusing an actress from VR Troopers (in an interview with RVT she revealed she'd found camera's hidden in her home after they seperated), Saban and Levy using their connections in Hollywood to literally get backlisted actors who tried to leave their shows if they wanted to pursue any other acting careers (thus why few ever managed to transition to any other acting role, Johnny Yong Bosch being a major exception as by the point he began voice acting he'd been let go from PR amidst a full cast-change mid-way through PR Turbo), and most notably Disney didn't own power rangers through Just SPD (season 12), they went through the end of the original 17 seasons with RPM in 2009. Nickelodeon didn't get PR until Saban bought the show back from Disney in 2010 with them then making Power Rangers Samurai in 2011 in their attempt to get back in the game...and thus beginning Power Ranger's dark times which last to this day even after a shift in ownership to Hasbro in 2018. Then again, this is a 13 minute vid, so hard to fault those admissions.
    But yeah, Haim Saban and his executives are pretty scummy and not though of fondly at all. One can love the product and yet still empathize with the harm that was done to those made part of it and show respect to them over the men at the top.

  • @KasumiKenshirou
    @KasumiKenshirou 5 месяцев назад +6

    Some more things I've heard about Saban:
    KISS's Gene Simmons once had a meeting with Haim Saban and Shuki Levi to do some project with him. During the negotiations, Saban leaned over to Levi and said in Hebrew, "Now we gut him!" Saban didn't realize that Gene Simmons also spoke Hebrew, and replied, "You a$$hole, I'm one of you!" The deal didn't happen. (I think it was some sort of KISS/X-Men crossover, so I guess it was for the best.)
    From the book "Previously on X-Men":
    Storm was recast after season 1, and all the season 1 episodes redubbed with the replacement actress, just to avoid paying the actress royalties. So first, a white woman was hired as Storm. (AFAIK her voice never appeared in any aired episodes.) They then decided that a black woman should to the voice so recast the role with an American actress. Because she was American (as opposed to the rest of the cast who were Canadian) they would have to pay her royalties for reruns of the episodes her voice appeared in, they replaced her with a Canadian actress.
    Will Meuginot went to Japan and had Sunrise willing to animate for the X-Men cartoon, but Saban didn't want to spend a small amount more for animation and they stuck with their Korean animators. Later they shifted to a Filipino studio that screwed up so bad on some episodes that they had to be completely reanimated from scratch. So there are two completely different versions of "No Mutant's an Island" out there, both used in different geographic regions.
    A lot of music credited to Haim Saban was not actually created by him, but other composers on a work-for-hire basis. And (not related to Saban but mentioned in the book) Hans Zimmer also uses ghost composers.

      That one wasn't my favorite version (which is G1), but I'm sorry to hear that. So neither company can actually do anything with the show without the cooperation of the other? Really boneheaded move one or both of their parts (I don't know all the details).
      Hasbro did something similar with ROM: Space Knight. Marvel made a comic based on the ROM toy. The toy was a flopped but the comic was somewhat successful. Hasbro owns the rights to ROM himself, but most of the rest of his backstory is still owned by Marvel. James Gunn wanted to use ROM in his Guardians of the Galaxy movie, but he couldn't work out a deal with Hasbro, as Hasbro had plans for their own "cinematic universe" (remember the Battleship movie? 😄) and wanted to save ROM for that. So Hasbro had a chance to have ROM, a character that most people reading this comment have never heard of nor care about, appear in the MCU at the height of its popularity, but didn't.
      This kind of crap is why I think our copyright laws need to be drastically overhauled. These giant corporations just hoard everything and then ignore most of it. If a fan tries to do a restoration they have to worry about breaking copyright laws. The copyright needs to go back to an initial 14 years of protection, which could then be renewed one or two times, and those renewals would require registrations. Registrations would help to alleviate the "orphan works" problem, where people want to use a property but can't even figure out who owns it in order to ask for permission.
      At the very least, the copyright should end when the author dies. (The actual author, not the corporation that currently owns the work or hired the author on a work-for-hire basis.)

Saban Entertainment/Fox Kids era (Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to Power Rangers Time Force), Disney Era (Power Rangers Wild Force to Power Rangers RPM), Saban Brands/Nickelodeon Era (Power Rangers Samurai/Super Samurai to Power Rangers Ninja Steel/Super Ninja Steel) and Hasbro/Nickelodeon/Netflix Era (Power Rangers Beast Morphers to Power Rangers Dino/Cosmic Fury). Total 30 seasons of Power Rangers. Now Hasbro wants to reboot the series after Power Rangers Cosmic Fury (third season of Power Rangers Dino Fury) in 2025.

    See, I’ve always heard of his scummy practices against the PR actors like Austin, Thuy and David (hell even some of the replacements like Karen and Steve have had not nice things to say about Haim too), but I had no idea how disgustingly hard he screwed over poor Ron Wasserman.
    The poor actors still deserved better pay yes, but at least they got credited as their respective characters. How entitled do you have to be to literally censor the name of the main songwriter who created your show’s awesome theme song that everyone still remembers (even non-PR fans)? Which I should mention, he continued to remix and reuse (and made worse) when he came back in the 2010s.

    RPM was the final Disney Power Rangers season not SPD, assuming we don't count the 2010 hackjob that was the MMPR reversion. SPD was the 3rd season under Disney, following Dino Thunder and Ninja Storm. Following from SPD, we got Mystic Force, Jungle Fury, Operation Overdrive, and the aforementioned RPM. The Disney era was also, in my opinion, the best overall era of PR, at least for consistency. The only actually bad season in the Disney era, really, was Operation Overdrive, which is overall pretty impressive, and includes most of the best seasons of the show, those being Ninja Storm, Dino Thunder, SPD, and RPM.

    • @TheSHIELDCap
      @TheSHIELDCap 5 месяцев назад

      The franchise got lucky with the Disney era since Disney themselves are too embarrassed with Power Rangers; they only got it as part of a larger buyout of Fox Family Worldwide when Haim Saban sold the company back in 2001.
      They even planned to pull the plug after the Fox Family Worldwide buyout but longtime PR producer Doug Sloan convinced them to move the production from the US to New Zealand.
      Look, even Power Rangers during that era was put into programming blocks like ABC Kids, Toon Disney, and even Jetix, they even barely promoted it. In other words, *Disney never wanted Power Rangers in the first place.*
      They wanted to end it with Jungle Fury but since Disney grew tired of the franchise, Jetix helped the funding for one last hurrah, which it became RPM.
      It's never Disney themselves that made the Disney era being "best overall" but more on the production team. People like Bruce Kalish, Greg Aronowitz, and Eddie Guzelian.

    I can understand why you’d want to skip Glitter Force. As a Pretty Cure super fan myself, I know all the edits Saban had to do to give it their own sense of international appeal. I don’t have room to explain everything, but I can tell you that while each season is roughly 50 episodes long, they trimmed Smile Precure down to 40 episodes and Dokidoki Precure down to 30! Let that sink in before you decide whether or not to talk about “How Saban Ruined Pretty Cure”. …but in all honesty, Debi Derryberry did a great job with the work she was given. Ok I’ll stop now 😅

      I don't understand the concept of "international appeal" since many non-English dubs of anime usually kept all of the Japanese elements intact. For example, here in Latin America we got series like Sailor Moon, Cardcaptor Sakura and Digimon Adventure dubbed from the original Japanese version, with all of the background music intact and cover versions of the Japanese OP and ED
      I can't understand why distributors in the U.S. feel they need to replace all of the Japanese elements, as if kids from other countries wouldn't understand them

I can't tell, Saban did come back for Digimon Xross Wars ( Digimon Fusion in the US) but the rest were brought or skipped entirely ( the ones who did come outside of JP being do to Toei themselves, these being Digimon Adventure TRI, while ApliMon I think just recently got added into the Crunchyroll library after years)

I honestly hope Hasbro claims the rights to the series as they managed to claim Animated back in 2011.
    And Saban's business practices was not the best...as it's comeback was short lived only for Power Rangers (their main IP which is based on Super Sentai) to then be bought by Hasbro.
