Who killed all of the first team cause Zordon said no to her fucking the Red Ranger who turned into Zedd.

Where's Rito? He was my favorite with Golddar. Rip guy who voiced Rito.

Rito was fun. The 'red neck-ish brother' thing was kind of random but it's PR.

I'll be going to see it either tonight or Tuesday but I know you don't care for my opinion so you'll have to wait for someone else to see it.

I hear there's a graphic sex scene between Rita and Bulk while Skull films it.

Well I'm not real sure about it as well, as I haven't been a fan of a lot of the things like the suits or the powers without them. The trailers have done their job though and I'm curious to see it. Hopefully they do it justice and make me feel like a kid again.

Great! Billy,Jason and Kimberly were standouts.I don't need oscar worthy for something called Power Rangers, I just needed this to be fun with solid casting for the rangers and it was.

Yeah was pretty good. Got a little long in the middle but really built up the bond the Rangers have with each other. Nice movie to start the franchise and I'm interested to see what they do next now that they are established. There is a mid credit scene as well.

Hah, I thought that Jason's dad was the actor that played the original red ranger but it wasn't . The two do look similar though

Reviews are not as bad as expected. A good number of them are. Rotten Rating is at 46.

I expected it to be objectively bad. I think that was a given. The question before the court is does it deliver to its niche audience.

Never watched The Office so I didn't know who he was. Wasn't really sure who the original red rangers was either so I just thought that was him playing Jason's dad until I googled it afterwards.

Well, that is something you should probably watch. I know it was on Thursdays. It's probably the reason I never got into Impact besides everything else about it.

Thought their was a good mix of nostalgia while also creating something new. I really think it was made for fans of the original series that lost interest as they got older. Wasn't afraid to poke fun at what is ridiculous about the power rangers but at the same time making it make sense in this world.

Elizabeth Banks surprised the fuck out of me, the whole movie was good from start to end. Thought the dark blue hue of the film would put me to sleep, but it didn't. Angel Grove lives again

This also was the day I dressed up as a middle-aged white guy dad. Very funny interactions out on the town. Almost got invited to golf? We'll get there, bought a whole golf club set w/bag for 10 dollars last week so we will see how it goes |

Very compelling Hburg. Nearly got me sold. Can you,, without spoilers, give me a critique of the film?
Word of mouth has been favorable among the niche. |

To start off, this movie was a reboot of a franchise that felt "current" and "not cheesy" given the circumstances of it being "Angel Grove" which we never got to see that much outside of the Community Center(back in the 90s show) or w/e the piss they hung out at. When I decided to go yesterday I just had brunch with my little brother with whom I watched Power Rangers with back in the early 90s. We gobbled that shit up, it was the show that came on afterschool and would entertain us while we waited for either my mom and stepdad to get off work or if we were at my dad's house(which was basically a crumbling house-shack that him and his friends did drugs like coke and heroin at) it would be our babysitter. Anyways, when he confirmed how badass the film was I chose to take my 9 year old son with me to show him my favorite group of the whole PR universe, the ones who started it all in America, the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. The first 10 minutes are fast-paced and gives you what you need to be hooked. If you don't like stories that center around team cohesion and the difficulties that come with it all then it probably won't work for you. The casting was great all around, not just the teenagers picked to be the Rangers, but the supporting cast that is stacked with familiar faces of current Hollywood. I don't want to spoil anything, so I'll just say that basically if you loved the original MMPR, then you'll enjoy and accept the hell out of the current and future of this franchise. The film was suited for adults and kids. That is very hard imo to do today in our culture. |

Cool little write-up. Pretty much every review I've read has some kind of version of "fans of the original will enjoy this". I can't wait!

Without spoiling anything, they made Zordon and Rita way more interesting than some guy on a screen and the typical "evil" person. Alpha got a super upgrade as well that again caters to kids and adults alike

Another non-spoiler to caveat up above to help you all move to the theater: It caters to wrestling fans
