    [email protected] @DefConG Going Legendary: Merchandising, Transmediality and Nostalgia in Power Rangers Super Megaforce Ross P. Garner School of Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies Cardiff University Introduction • Research questions: • How do forms of nostalgia become constructed in programmes primarily targeting children? • What cultural issues do these industrially-located strategies intersect with? • Approach taken: • Nostalgia as discourse. • Addressing social, cultural, historical and industrial contexts. • Case study: • Power Rangers Super Megaforce (Saban Brands 2014) Introducing Legendary Mode Diegetic Codings of Objects Decontextualized Nostalgia Decontextualized Nostalgia and Imagined Audiences • Audiences targeted: • Fans • ‘Child’ = primary audience: • “Boys aged 4-8” (Saban Brands 2013: 2) • “As they get older, children repeatedly (and often fiercely) reject their former enthusiasms: differences of as little as a couple of years carry enormous significance.” (Buckingham and Sefton- Green 2004: 15). • Adults: • Intertextual pleasures (Gordon 2003) • Inter-generational bridging. Decontextualized Nostalgia, Adults and Reassurance • Useful framework = Giddens (1991)…: • Trust in abstract systems = subjective anxiety and powerlessness. • Counter this through reflexive self-narratives and ontological security. • …but add to this: • Davis (1979: 41) on nostalgia and self-identity. • Holdsworth (2011) – TV rememberance = show and context. • Discourses constructing the Power Rangers: • Violence; consumerist; aesthetic dismissals

Il Rapporto 2008 su “Il Mercato e l’Industria del Cinema in Italia” ha lo scopo primario di colmare questa lacuna e di offrire agli operatori e agli analisti un quadro più ampio possibile di un universo che attraversa la cultura e la società del nostro Paese. Il Rapporto è stato realizzato con questo spirito dalla Fondazione Ente dello Spettacolo in collaborazione con Cinecittà Luce S.p.A., ed è il frutto della ricerca condotta da un’équipe di studiosi sulla base di una pluralità di fonti e di dati statistici rigorosi. Questo rigore si è misurato in alcuni casi con la relativa indeterminatezza di informazioni provocata dall’assenza di dati attualizzati (ad esempio, per i bilanci societari) e dalla fluidità di notizie in merito a soggetti che operano nel settore secondo una logica a volte occasionale e temporanea. La Fondazione Ente dello Spettacolo opera dal 1946.
