2017's Power Rangers: The Franchise that Never Was
2017’s Power Rangers was a film that had a lot of hype leading up to its release, but once it came out it was quickly forgotten by a majority of moviegoers. Although it may have its fans and staunch supporters, it certainly didn’t kick start the franchise that the filmmakers and studios hoped it would, and we never got to see the sequel that was teased at the end of the film.
In this video essay I take a look at the history of film, discover why it never got a follow up, and offer some of my personal thoughts on it.

My Thoughts: 7:09 - 10:33
Conclusion: 10:33 - 11:15
