You gotta admit that command center stage set was pretty sweet at least.

I have
fond nostalgia of this movie because I was a Rangers kid for the longest time. I
mean sure, it's a flaming piece of crap now, but I was amazed by this movie when
I was 6.

This was a movie that I obcessed over as a kid. Now thanks to you I see it for
the piece of crap that it is.

I die EVERY time over "The Mother of all Finishing Blows." XD! I can't
believe I never noticed that as a young kidlet!

Even though I enjoyed this film as a kid, I still pondered on the plot holes in
the movie, as well as the skydiving scene (least the Chilli's song kicked ass).
Awesome review.

For what it's worth, the Power Rangers movie DOES have a kickass soundtrack.
Devo AND They Might Be Giants each contributed a new song, and TMBG's
"Sensurround" is probably their best song ever.

That song is pretty catchy

I was never a power-ranger person myself, just the cornyness of the whole thing
drove me nuts.

yet my brother loved it, he never stopped watching it until i
told him that they were just actors in suits, he headbutted me and ran to his
room crying, them not being real was just to much for a 21 year old to take
in...

"Fuck this, man. I'm gonna go into anime" is one of the greatest
semi-obscure references you could make that ensures people they are my new best
friend.

I too have always loved the "Oh, the things I've missed!" bit,
but no references to Ivan Ooze being Belloq? He unleashed the wrath of God!

I
also always loved the back and forth with the construction workers and the....
bullies. "Hey, Dave! Come have a look at this!" "Go on,
Dave."

Ah, what a wonderful crappy movie.

I never noticed the stereotyping with the first black and yellow ranger until I
saw this vid. Damn, Kimberly was like the hottest pink ranger ever.

Eww. That part about the yellow and black made me cringe.

That little brat from the movie always pissed me off...I don't know why

God	\|2008-06-13 02:01:15

I feel embarrassed that I used to like this as a kid..

God bless my parents for putting up with this shit so I could retain some idea
of happiness as a child.

Even as a little kid though, that fight between the
Rangers and Ooze was bull. It was as anticlimactic as the fight between Shredder
and Splinter in the Ninja Turtles movie. Or at least comes close. The fights in
the show were better, which is NOT a sentence I say often.

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers the Movie was bad from what I remember. Although I
did really liked it when I was a kid. But Turbo A Power Rangers Movie was way
worst. I still bare some emotional scars from that piece of crap.

You were born early enough to miss the boat; I was a babe of 1990 (the later
part even, October) and this shit fell right into my lap before I knew any
better. Ooooh the obsession I had. But, my parents were supportive and happy to
cater to my first childhood fandom. Probably has to do with them being geeks
themselves. And, they have a few fun stories to look back on about the swarming
hordes of parents flooding Toys-R-Us at Christmas time fighting to get to the
new Power Rangers toys first.

When I look back on it, they picked a bizzare spectrum for the Rangers. Red,
blue, yellow... OK, the basic colors, good deal. Pink 'cos she's a girl, and...
black? Oh right, because he's black (that was my five-year-old logic before I
learned how racist I was).
Then they meet a kick-ass new ranger whose green, but
you feel like he's better than the "normal rangers" 'cos he has a mantle
and a flute that summons a fuckin' plesiosaur Zord. Then he gets upgraded one
day from green to white. Now, this all made sense to me as a small child but now
that I look back on it...

Red, blue, yellow: gotcha. Pink and black... I guess
I can give you pink, but black? The most evil and disheartening of colors? Why
is the green ranger a later addition, why isn't green one of the beginning
colors? Black should be a special color like white. And then we get a green
ranger, and he becomes white! So now we have the three primaries, pink, white,
and black. WHY NO GREEN?! I can understand passing up purple and orange, but
that rainbow where they turn into colored energy and teleport just looks wrong.

Haha, I agree NC. This movie is pretty ridiculous. I dun't know if you were
asking all those questions at the end because you honestly don't know or if you
were just trying to be funny though. I can only honestly answer the first one:
The monsters land in the same city cuz' Rita and Zed both know that that's where
the Rangers live. Other than that, the rest are a mystery. lol

Are you jesus?

As a kid who had actually seen the original sentai show Saban ripped off to make
power ranger, I can still remember my excitement when I saw the teaser trailers
for the Power Rangers TV show. I can also remember how horrified I was that the
shows I saw that had some cool drama and sweet action sequences were reduced
to...
"No Zordon, not Teenagers!"
t(^_^) Heres to Saban for making all
our childhoods just a little bit worse.

Man that show was gay. Can't believe I used to watch it.
