Best Super Sentai films

In homage to the release of Pacific Rim, I am doing a list of best Super Sentai films.
I am excluding Goranger-JAKQ since there were no giant robots in those series.

Most of these get on the list for aesthetic reasons.

Super Sentai World aka Kakuranger vs Dairanger vs Zyuranger vs Jetman vs Fiveman
We actually get to see mechs fight each other. No old teammates really come back, but it brought interest back into the teamup.

Dairanger
It was a little early for a film, but we got to see 4 baddies against 5 rookie good guys. Good intro.

Dekaranger
Ban gets a cool girlfriend who is way too good for his annoying self. At least, we get Doggie Krueger in a helicopter sniping.

Boukenger vs Super Sentai
Was actually one of the worse Boukenger episodes, but Boukenger was full of so many great moments that this film just had to be included on the list.

Magiranger
Kai finally gets the girl.

Boukenger
The beginning of the movie begins with a great Lord of the Ringish CGI fight pre-Ranger War.
The fight is a supposed great threat that is worse than all the others, but not really.
Oh we also get a new Boukenger mecha formation.

Hurricanger vs Gaoranger
Two teams fight although it is really Jakanja in disguise and in command of the Gaoranger's powers.
They win a bit cheap, but both teams are featured pretty well.

Gaoranger vs Super Sentai
It was a first time seeing a mixed teamup of this sort. JAKQ still was unpopular unlike Big One.

GoGoV vs Gingaman
Really well executed. A demon spirit attacks Ryoma. However, he friggin uses fire so off course the undead spirits lose!
They weaken him a lot during the film though as he tries to warn  of GoGoV.
The film ends with a combined effort by Gingaman and GoGoV against the demon thanks to GoGoV's mechs and Gingaman's fire.

Magiranger vs Dekaranger
It's a theme about family that leads from Magiranger into Dekaranger. Also, Ban is less annoying.
