A lot of what happened in Dino Thunder didn't work for me. These are the points that didn't, which I'll eventually explain a year later in another article, but I'll explain why they appeal to fans for now.
Another Tommy ship with a woman whose age they don't establish (although it doesn't really matter in Power Rangers Hollywood)
The Anton Mercer storyline has elements of in Space, Time Force, and Blade Runner, but sorta trivializes the corporate matters of the show, possibly due to Disney actually caring whether a corporation can look bad, something Michael Eisner probably did not want to show to his friends.
Conner isn't likeable and there's not really a reason for it, unlike what Toei does with Takumi in Faiz, and that should appeal to "anti-Disney" Disney fans who want an edge to their characters.
Kira can sing.
Ethan's a nerdy guy, whose a bit darker than Billy dealing with a bully that he's actually afraid of.
They have cool powers.
Trent is the new Tommy and Disney never capitalized on it.
This show attempted to mix Time Force with Mighty Morphin and it didn't quite work for me. Disney never seemed to be G1 Saban fans, but we should appreciate them for their individuality and image unlike G2 Saban.
