Power Rangers - the appreciation and discussion thread

Is this stating " introducing new high school students" mean new actors playing characters Jason, Tommy, Billy, Zach, Kimberly, and Trini is not happening but all new characters in the old ranger costumes? I was interested in seeing a new take on the original six, but new characters? Not so much.

I think they mean new actors playing the rangers not new characters. The artical is just badly worded at least that's how I see it.

I was wondering if this was an actual song or something Saban came up with for a quick clip show. Also, does it have a song title? This moment is one of the two or three biggest problems I had with the plotting of the show during my five seasons of viewership. So outta character.

I can't answer your question for certain, but what's out of character about this?

1. Like a brother? She likes making out with her brother figure?
2. Out of the blue like that? It would seem like there would be signs otherwise Tommy would not have let someone else read it.
3. Simple plot device to force a romance with a character in use versus one off screen.
4. It just simply did not seem like something Kimberly would do and I knew that at the age of 9 when this aired originally.

See, you should have said all of this all along. All you did was show a clip of the montage of scenes from Tommy and Kimberly's relationship.

I think that when she mentioned in the letter that he's like a brother to her, I figured it would be a Dear John letter. I guess it just didn't occur to Tommy.

I was mainly interested in learning a song title from that scene. It was actually a good tune but is a one-off thing I think. I just could not resist mentioning my distaste in the move.

I guess they were bound to break up anyway, with Kimberly going off far away to live somewhere for a while. Anyway, he kind of did rush into things with Heather anyway. Of course it wasn't going to work out.

There are of course all those fanon theories she wound up with Skull just because someone heard it was a deleted line from Forever Red. Was that ever confirmed as bulls*it?

I only remember how Funaro convinced Amit to put it in the PR bible that Skull married Kimberly. Then officials at PMC in 2012 said that Kimberly isn't Spike's father.

Well, Kim was a confused person

Character descriptions for the MMPR revival have come out. Seems Kim has a secret and was gone for 6 months. Wonder if she had a kid that she had to give up??

Jason – 17 years old, the makings of someone or something great if he would just get out of his own way. Jason was a legend of this town—a freshman quarterback with the skills to take him all the way. People knew his name. Children wore his jersey. Until, one night Jason wrapped his car around a pole and busted out his knee. Everything Jason was going to become ended in an instant. And with it, he lost himself. When we meet him at the start of the film, he’s a kid in need of redemption. By the end, he’ll be leading this disparate group of teens to shed their individual baggage and find who they truly are.

Kimberly – 17 years old, unconventionally cool all in a way the popular girls wish they were. In fact, she was one of those girls, but isn’t anymore. Not since she’s returned to school after an absence of 6 months. Rumors are flying as to why; rumors she seems not to care about, because she’s come back with this new rebel-without-a-cause, edgy attitude. But the truth is, it’s all masking a deep secret that makes her feel profoundly vulnerable.

Trini – 17 years old, mysterious and extremely bright. Her parents constantly move for work, making Trini the perpetual new girl to any school. A loner who owns it, Trini is self-sufficient, contemplative, but always observant. All she wants is to find her gang of friends, but she’ll never admit it – least of all to herself.

Billy – 17 years old, slight and awkward. Billy is challenged in his abilities to communicate and interact socially. Whip-smart and sweet, but always odd. Sometimes in a fun way, sometimes not, Billy is a kid with no filter. Showing his emotions, understanding sarcasm, and dealing with his OCD is a constant challenge. Has never really had any friends and instantly gravitates towards Jason.

Zack – 17 years old, always the life of the party. Filled with bravado and swagger, Zack’s tough and cool on the exterior. A charming guy who’s never had trouble with the one-liner, nor lacked confidence around women. A great athlete that’s never wanted to play on any team but his own. Zack advertises everything about himself, except the truth, which is that he lives in a trailer park with his single mom, and because of it, feels deeply inferior to all his peers.
