Kōsuke Ueki Posted September 10, 2010 Report Share Posted September 10, 2010 Like you said in the topic. WTF?! I got no ideas whatsoever about what these Theme Parks are like. What would be a better topic is how would you make a Power Rangers CONVENTION, where it would be and how long it would last, along with what will there be in it. And for the episode name, who exactly is that "Hero"? Is it a secret like everything else planned? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Hero Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Can't really see the theme parks being large in size if it does happen and the first think that came to mind was that the kiddy train ride is gonna look like the rail zords from lightspeed rescue. I'd expect there to be an arcade area with the old PR games to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kōsuke Ueki Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Unfortunately, the arcade can't happen, ever since arcades lost their liking back in 2000. I would say that there would be both a kids, teenagers, and adults section of the theme park, the teenagers section being a martial arts studio to help learn the moves shown by the unmorphed rangers of the entire series. The adults section on the other hand would be hard to think about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNovaKnight Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 I don't think it'd have to be that divided up. The train idea is really cool though. And I'd also have to agree about it not being that big. Not seeing a Six Flags or Disney size thing. As far as attractions, maybe there'd be like one of those ride simulators of being in a zord during a battle. And as far as who the episode is named after ... maybe you, maybe me, maybe Ralis, or Bruce Lee. Who knows? - FYI, yes, rhyme was intended. It's 2:44 am here after Fashion Night Out in NYC ...thus I'm silly sleepy. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galesonic Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 What?! Arcade games failed since 2000?! I beg to differ, some of the newer ones are quite as good.I always play Time crisis 4 whenever I go to the movie theater. lol It took me an hour to actually beat the game with 4 different people to be player 2. Anyway, the martial arts studio seems fun though. lol I bet they'll probably act out a scene from the show though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Hero Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 martial arts studio sounds good in theory but the would probably be some faults in it like the fact that it would cost quite a bit of extra money to pay for them to teach cuz they ain't gonna do it for free for what i would expect to be basic self defence moves with the average person not likely to be able to do more complex fighting techniques and the only other thing that the could teach them is the shouts and grunts they do when they are fighting.

DNovaKnight Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 They couldn't do training. Demonstrations maybe ... but not general training. Why? Here goes: 1) DISRESPECT - it takes away from the true spirit of the martial arts. It's about discipline, and respect. And people jumpin into/leaving in the middle of a class would be VERY disrespectful. And you would get a very watered down, impractical, completely useless form. 2) LIABILITY - each person that signs up for martial arts, MUST sign waivers and have insurance. If one person got hurt in the slightest, they would have a tremendous lawsuit on their hands. 3) UNFAMILIARITY - there would be soo many different type of people, not just physical build, but also ability. You would have numerous classes and make it completely inefficient. You can't have someone teaching a tornado kick (one of the trademark PR moves) without them having learned the basic fundaments as well as having tremendous lower body strength and balance. If you don't have these, it could lead to a twisted ankle at least, but more likely breaking something. Which brings us back to #2. 4) BORING - since they could do the more advance trademark stuff easily (as stated in #3) they would have to do basic punches and stretches, which if someone were there for only that day, would find VERY boring and would much rather prefer the trademark moves that look cool. But i already explained what would happen with that in #3 and #2. And #1 since you must learn to walk before you can run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Hero Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 Looks like DNK has pretty much pointed out most (if not all) faults with the martial arts studio idea. Best we would ever get is some preformance act done by some other acrobatic/martial arts people which would most likely be a crap preformance. EDIT: wonder if anyone else is gonna chip in on the discussion? anyway, how far from completion are the pics, DNK? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNovaKnight Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 still have quite a few to work on, but considering this episode's layout - the zords/megazords can wait for next episode, thus i can start once these last 2 are done. I just have to scann the pics and work on one other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kōsuke Ueki Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 What?! Arcade games failed since 2000?! Of course. I beg to differ, They're only popular in Japan now, since they began there. some of the newer ones are quite as good.I always play Time crisis 4 whenever I go to the movie theater. lol It took me an hour to actually beat the game with 4 different people to be player 2. And how can you do that when most arcades in the US have been shut down. Anyway, the martial arts studio seems fun though. lol I bet they'll probably act out a scene from the show though. It may be a bit hard to reenact a scene from an old episode if they got rid of the monster and pawn costumes years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kōsuke Ueki Posted September 11, 2010 Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 I'm online most of the time, but since my brother came back, I won't be on as much since he demands to get on when he feels like it like the douchebag he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNovaKnight Posted September 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2010 arcades don't really exist as a single entity, but arcade games are still strong in bowling allies, generic bday places, movie theaters and some bars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kōsuke Ueki Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Bars? WTF? Why wasn't I informed? The last arcade I saw was at the Rotterdam Square Mall back in 2008. And it was Street Fighter. I see you're point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNovaKnight Posted September 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 :lol: Well only some, and doubtful that most members would be able to get in. haha But yah, one by me in the city has a golf game as well as Big Buck shootout.

Kōsuke Ueki Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 You know, the best way to get the ultimate arcade experience is to head to Japan and look up English translated Arcade Use Instructions. Either that or look up how to make your arcade systems with actual games. Any other possible idea works too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
galesonic Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 I always loved the Tekken arcade ports. Except for the music. It sounds so weird compared to the video game. Oh and DNK, you forgot one fault: Itelligence/humiliation: The person might be stupid, end up saying that he can do better and possibly make a giant fool out of themselves and the master teaching them. Not only that, he could end up unknowingly hit someone, especially a little kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Warden Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 There are plenty of arcade games in Australia, no idea why you say they're dead. There;s a good selecion of arcade games at the bowling alley in my town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any other possible idea works too.I think the best way to experince the arcade, is go to a place, find a game, insert quaters, AND FUCKING PLAY IT! Going to japan ruins arcading as it is meant to be a casual yet enjoyable experince. And your also implying Arcade games are not actual games. Yeah that's great your a dick. Soul Caliber series says hi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

galesonic Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 No problem. Also, I think the worst out of it is the overall ability of the master. I have read in the paper that some masters actually do their classes drunk prior to it. One of them got arrested for Public Intoxication and he roundhouse kicked a 12 year old in the face without warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DNovaKnight Posted September 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 Well those stories you hear from generic martial arts places. any place that advertises on tv and such (ie: tiger shulmens) isn't real martial arts. it's very watered down and has non of the heart and spirit. It basically become like the Cobra Kai dojo in the original karate kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fallen Hero Posted September 12, 2010 Report Share Posted September 12, 2010 All this talk of martial arts makes me wish i didn't have to leave the kung fu classes i did. Had to leave for financial reasons i case you are wondering. My master was a little strict in the lesson but afterwards you could have a laugh with her and was someone you could get along with.
