Go-onger vs. Gekiranger to be in the Theaters

Many the cast members revealed on their blogs that there will be Second Go-Onger Theaterical Movie. On Dec. 7, Toei announced on it's Go-onger website that the film is going to be Go-onger vs. Gekiranger, and that it is to commemorate the 15th of the Super Sentai V-Cinema VS Series, having started initially with J.A.K.Q. Dengekitai vs. Goranger in 1978 and revived annually with Chouriki Sentai Ohranger vs. Kakuranger in 1996. The film is slated for theatrical release on January 24, 2009. The DVD release is scheduled for March as always.

This is paraphrasing from the translation:
Go-Onger will have a movie once again!! I can't talk about the details, but this is unprecedented for Sentai to have a second movie. I'm so very happy. The other Go-Onger members are also very excited. Wait for more details! The fact that the second movie is being made is truly thanks to all of you, the fans. All the other Go-Onger members are really feeling loved!! Truly thank you! Bomper is also very happy!!

Shinkenger

These pictures are everywhere but I decided to post them cause they look great. Samuari Sentai Shinkenger is obviously Samuari based. Many say the helmets look Ohranger/Magiranger-esque with hints of Megaranger, while the suits have hints of Kakuranger and Gouraijer.

The OriKami become ShinkenOh. ShishiOrikami (lion), RyuuOriKami (dragon), KumaOriKami (bear), SaruOriKami (monkey), and KameOriKami (turtle). Each OriKami can transform from its "Emblem Form." (top left) Additional OriKami include: Hercules Beetle KabutoOriKami, Swordfish KajikiOriKami, and Tiger ToraOriKami.

The Power Rangers Super Legends Retrofire Megazords come with this questionare, which has very curious entries. A questionare like this is ever rarely done, #6 asks what animal we like best: Lions, Bears, Monkeys, Turtles, Dragons, or Unicorns, which all except Unicorn is in Shinkenger. #9 aks if 'we' think Japanese symbols are strange or confusing. And #10, if 'we' find Ninjas or Samuaris better. Obviously has to do with Shinkenger.
