What's with the Power Rangers thread necromancy?

" Isn't  the Yellow Ranger dead and the Red one a convicted murderer ? "

Nearing the half-way mark of season 3. I still think that Lord Zedd is one of the greatest villains ever made. He looks cooler than heck. Very few designs that compete with how cool he looks IMHO in any media.

I had a crush on Tommy XD I still think he's beastly but I liked him better in his green uniform. Bad ranger, bad ranger! XD "

Hahahaha, awesome! I'm surprised at how many girls I've seen that are still fans of Power Rangers. Actually it's not that surprising, given that they like anime and a lot of times think the guys are cute or whatnot. But it's always interesting to hear a girl's perspective. :) "

XD I was addicted, I had the toys and even Tommy's lion headed dagger that talked, my friend had his green ranger flute/ sword that called his godzilla mech, I still watch the old episodes when i could, i miss bulk and Skull, zordon and alpha *sigh*  But np "

" Power Rangers is a little too childish, and it's just an Americanization of what the Japanese had been doing much better:

" @astrotriforce: Your thread brought back so many wonderful memories. Thank you! "

" @Xeiphyer: i was going to post that picture in your blog. i heard he is pretty good at mma. i think he is like 3-0 no. pretty badass to go from skinny to a big guy.   i use to like power rangers. i liked it until they came out with like a mysterious power ranger, he was like phantom ranger. i stopped watching it after that. it was a pretty cool show man. i remember in 5th grade there were a group of 4th graders that would play power rangers. you would just seem them yelling and kicking things. "

" Power Ranges was pretty good for a couple seasons, in a so bad it's good way. After that though, it went downhill.  What angers me is that now they're re-airing the old episodes with super random crap added in (like once when Bulk fell over "Epic Fail" appeared on screen) and they're trying to pass it off to youngsters as new.  "

" I wish they'd release a box set of DVDs for the show. "

I wish they'd release a box set of DVDs for the show.

The original Mighty Morphin and Space were the only good ones, end of discussion.

If you're a fan of tokusatsu and a fan of strategy RPGs, it doesn't get better than Banpresto's alternative to the Super Robot Wars games, "Super Tokusatsu Taisen 2001" for the Playstation!  A giant crossover game featuring several iterations of Super Sentai, various Kamen Rider iterations, various Ultraman iterations, and a few of the live-action giant robot shows of years past such as Giant Robo and Red Baron.  Old meets new, all that jazz, it's tokusatsu through the years in an epic, yet extremely difficult SRPG!
  

  

    

  Unfortunately, they haven't made a new game since 2001. They've mostly been working on Super Robot Wars games, they seem to be easier to incorporate into stuff. "

I like(d) Power Rangers when I was like 5-8.

" @angelfan91: Oh god, I do.  And they brought back the evil doppleganger rangers with the all black costumes aside from the helmets for that... Didn't that also have multiple appearances from the turtle's long-lost sister Venus?   God damn it, being a kid in the 90's was so fucking awesome.   "

What you need to be watching is mother fucking Kamen Rider.  

"

A MILLION TIMES YES! ^5  Though I watch Kamen Rider and Super Sentai more now, I watched all of MMPR and portions of series after that and loved it. I loves me some tokusatsu goodness. "

" How could anyone hate The Tick ? You have no soul or are ignorant of the shows existence good sir.  Power Rangers was nothing more then dubbed footage of some Japanese Kids show with clips of American teenagers teaching lessons in morality.  It's only entertainment value was purely camp and for the youngsters that were just weened off Barney and Friends who's minds weren't ready for the subtle nuances of Rocko's Modern Life.    Also you dissed the greatest kid's show ever, Batman the Animated Series. It was well written and didn't dumb it down for the children unlike Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers.  My freaking mom actually enjoyed the show and would watch it even if I wasn't around. I recently picked up the entire series on DVD and that show still holds up today. In my opinion Kevin Conroy is the best Batman and Mark Hamil is the best Joker. "

" Original Power Rangers was fucking incredible.  All the Zeo, Neo, Space bullshit can burn in hell. "

Who the fuck doesn't love Power Rangers

when i see the pink power ranger it makes me masturbate

I liked them when I was a kid. I've seen most of the seasons...

When I was a young child I loved 'em.  Seems really cheesy to me now.

" I watched them when I was 9 or 10 years old. I liked the first 2 seasons. Then I grew up and stopped watching because I think the show is stupid. "

" Isn't  the Yellow Ranger dead and the Red one a convicted murderer ?   As a kid I was spoiled by good children's programming like Pete & Pete, Batman, Eerie Indiana, Ren and Stimpy, The Tick, Animaniacs, and Tiny Toons.   It reminded me of a bad MST3K movie with out the added benefit of robots mocking it.

I liked them when I was 10.... but that was 14 years ago.

" @Elazul: Dude what are you talking about?That movie had giant robots and ooze and FUCKING SKYDIVING. "

Basically, just watch Seasons 1-6.

YES!! Power Rangers all the way

I haven't watched Power Rangers since Disney got control of them. Of the seasons I've seen, I just remember that the Machine Empire was my favorite as far as villains go. Glad to see that Saban got the rights back. I saw an episode of Shinkenger the other day. It will be interesting to see how they will westernize it.

When I was much younger, several years before "Power Rangers" first showed up in the U.S., I was living in the Philippines and they used to have a few of those Japanese tokusatsu shows.  I don't recall exactly which ones, but I'm sure there was a Kamen Rider in there somewhere.  Anyhow, if you think the whole Power Rangers franchise has gone on for way too long, well then you obviously aren't in the know, because they're basically repackaged from Japan's Super Sentai franchise, which has been going on since the mid-70s.  
 
I'm more a fan of Super Robot anime from the 1970s such as Mazinger Z and Getter Robo, myself. Also the various kaiju movies such as the Godzilla franchise and Gamera.

Man those were some cool toys back in the day.

I still love the Power Rangers. My Ranger love will never die.

I loved power rangers but barely watched any of the seasons oddly enough. I remember watching the season 1, 2, turbo, and Wild Force like a die hard fanatic. If I remember my childhood correctly, I think Cartoon Network took up most of my time. LONG LIVE TOONAMI

All I know about Power Rangers is that they wore silly outfits and the "White Power... ranger" image.

There isn't enough irony in my body for me to properly enjoy it.

I like MMPR, Zeo, Space, Time Force, Dino Thunder, & SPD

" Loved the original Power Rangers; watched pretty faithfully until Space was over. Stopped caring once all the characters/villains I knew were done for. "
