It's like you didn't even read his first two posts. Besides, I think C42 would die before he would ever say "kewl" or "lawl."

I admit I was really interested in the concept of reinventing the original six...by fleshing out the characters more, but the race changes seriously cooled me on it. I don't need to make a thread to express that. The new comic though seems to have got things right and Commentator 42 should pick it up to sample. With Batman'66 being scrapped with the line unfortunately I have a hole in my pull list and that might be filled by the new comic. It appears as if they were right and they really are back to cause mischief as the dark reflections.



Btw, can this be merged and edited into the official thread for PR?

I freely admit, I never got into Power Rangers as a kid and I have no intention to start now. The only thing I've ever watched was that gritty reboot fan film they did with Starbuck in it.

They might as well just keep this thread separate. This one was made to badmouth the series.

Brotha, you are missing out on Time Force, Dino Thunder, In Space, and maybe SPD? You must watch them someday!

I personally feel the Power Rangers range from having good series such as In Space and Time Force but do have a good share of plain awful series like Operation Overdrive. Granted, I feel Mighty Morphin is good due to nostalgia, but it's peaked my interest a little. I'm just hoping the concept art isn't the permanent Megazord, it looks awful.

Eh, his mind is made up. Plus like I said, rejected concepts.

So Commenter42 doesn't even like PR or doesn't care either way? Well this was pointless.

Those saying why bother with concept art...that's part of like everything. You start out with concepts and different versions until you finalize it. How can anything not have concept art?

I freely admit, my mind is indeed made up. I do like to see what you guys have to say about it, though... educate myself a little.

A good season to one might be crap to another. With all original rangers gone and uninteresting replacements I stopped watching thanks to the first few In Space crapisodes, but another former fan or a current one might be obsessed with my final straws. In otherwords it depends on person to person. This should help sort it out at your own discretion.

Just saying. LOL.
This is a TMNT forum. Now kindly STFU.

Wow, reading through this thread...idk...smh... like Saban needs it's own clan of SJW's...jesus

I'm pointing out the remake is pretty silly if they're sexing it up and going dark and gritty. Maybe we can get a dark and gritty Mr. Rogers next, or a real world Teletubbies...


"Can we get some more dark here, and some grit!!! Hurry up with that mood and angst people! layer it nice and think, let's make sure the kids never notice just how stupid the entire premise is !!!

That's exactly what I'm saying. He started off seeming like he was somewhat interested. He is, but for all the wrong reasons.

I can see why others might not like the series, and can respect their opinions, as long as they're not being complete jerk-offs about it. I don't mind pointing out the flaws either, and I'm not sure this movie will do all that great at this point. Also, they won't be making it dark and gritty.

Now, take your own advice.

Fair enough, we will tell you what you should avoid when time comes.

You mean, avoid even more than "good" Power Rangers?

I'm sorry, I'm sorry... I'll show myself out.

If folks can't bring themselves to admit PR is a horribly acted and impossibly cheap show, what hope do the producers have for 2017?

I mean, it's pure unintentional camp, right? It's troma level kids programing, which isn't to say it's meritless, but it sure as hell isn't above reproach.
