Adness Entertainment, Another Kamen Rider Series?

For those of you who don't know, I'm a Tokusatsu nut. I love shows like Ultraman, Godzilla, Power Rangers, Super Sentai and Kamen Rider. So, when Adness Entertainment brought America Kamen Rider, in the form of Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, I loved it. The show was amazing, so amazing in fact that people in Japan got their own dubbed version of it and like it more than Kamen Rider Ryuuki, the series Dragon Knight is based off of.

However, the CW4Kids (now called Toonzai) dropped the series before it's final two episodes could be aired. They had expected to have the success of Power Rangers right off the bat and it simply didn't happen. Steve Wang, the producer of Dragon Knight, mentioned that Adness had planned a Second Season of Dragon Knight, as well as a movie, but dropped the plans so Adness could raise money to bring over another Heisei Era Kamen Rider series to the US.

However, it has been some time, Dragon Knight's 'final episode' aired December 26th, 2009, since this information was given to us. I am wondering if Adness is still planning to bring over another Kamen Rider, or if they dropped it.

If they did dropped it, who would you guys like to see bring over a Kamen Rider seires, and I swear if any of you mention Saban I will need a very good explaination why. YES, Saban did pretty good with Power Rangers, but the last time he brought a Kamen Rider series to the US, it was a monstrosity known as Masked Rider.

Also, if Adness or another group DOES bring it over, what Hesei Era series, for those who watch Kamen Rider, would you like to see brought over next? Personally, I'd like to see Adness get to bring over Kamen Rider Kabut, Den-O, Kiva or W.

I'd like to see what they could do with Kiva.

Though, I think Blade or Den-o would be easier for them to do.

Agreed on Den-O, I havn't seen Blade yet though.

I am still in pain over what they did to Ryuuki, which was my jumping on point into the fandom and remains my favorite series ever. My husband thinks they did a fairly good job, but me = heck no.

Kiva...would be interesting. (thinking back to VR Troopers - wasn't that the one with the haunted house? - but I pray they don't make it that goofy)

Den-O has possibilities (if they hold off on all-out goofiness, again) and Blade. I would hope they wouldn't try Faiz or Kabuto; they're both kinda convoluted, Kabuto moreso.

Oooh, W would be *great*...

It was the Beetleborgs with the haunted house.

Also, isn't the point of Den-O to be ******* crazy?
