Didnāt realize there was a Power Rangers thread. This past Halloween my fiancee and I went out as the Red and Yellow ranger. Not screen accurate but I think for something done in about two weeks, it came off pretty stellar
I was gonna add the Green Ranger shield, but didnāt have time.
I also saw the movie last night. It was better than I expected. If you liked the show, Iām pretty sure you will walk out of this one pleased. If you didnāt then there isnāt anything here to get you interested.
Unfortunately, Overdrive is still going on the marathon⦠the one saving grace of this season is the adorable Rhoda Montemayor. (*she actually looks better on this show than in some of the pictures Iāve seen online.)
*itās funny that the one guy (Blue, I think) got the worst power when they got the unmorphed superpowers⦠one girl gets invisibility, another gets superhuman speed/reflexes, the black guy got telescopic vision I guess⦠but Blue got super jumping. Terrible :lol: In Ranger form, people can usually do skyscraper-length super-jumps anywayā¦itās quite a basic, default Ranger powerā¦and thatās what he got as his only super power :lol:
The movie didnāt suck. After the abortion that was Turbo almost 20 years ago exactly that I was all I was asking for at this point. The theater applauded when the credits rolled so thatās definitely a good sign.
I would have liked for the actual Ranger fight to be longer with how much they built towards how important the armor was, but Iāll forgive that because it was an origin movie and most of the film was spent building the characters up. I expect to see a lot more Ranger action in the second film.
Anything with cars and sentai suck. Might just be my opinion, but Voltron was better with the lions, and Power Rangers needs to stay away from vehicle enthusiast shit. What next, NASCAR Rangers*? Power Rangers Monster Truck Force, trying to capitalize on the Cars and Trucks Pixar movie fans?
I donāt think itās the cars issue, itās just material.
Heck, I donāt see anyone all over the later seasons that were animal-themed (Wild Force and Jungle Fury). Even if Wild Force having such a killer team.
Overdrive had decent concepts, but still came off as⦠very⦠eh. Meh. Bleh, even. Felt like it dragged on just as bad as Turbo, though without the extra-silly moments the Turbo rangers were exposed to.
Then that Once A Ranger episode came around and made the entire team bitchmade-tier IN THEIR OWN SERIES.
