oh fuck

[kbi the crowing]

I still have my Ninja Zord

[bladerdude360]

Power Rangers used to be my shit when I was younger.

[Greg.Kushlan]

does the yellow ranger in that picture in the link have spinners on it's helmet?

[Jake Denning]

the original theme song used to be metal up the ass.

awesome video

[HometownHero]

I used to want to fuck the Pink Ranger

[Miketheunicycle]

the Power Rangers made up my childhood.

[Auals]

GOD THIS IS AWESOME :O!

This day just became good. Wow... um... has anything been said about the original Ivan Ooze movie being remastered as well? That would induce my super childhood geek to orgasm.

[dancerazdance]

oh hell yeah, MMPR rules

[Andy Young]

Oh wow. The kid in me is jumping up and down.

I think I would still watch this today and thoroughly enjoy it.

[SteveD]

I used to want to fuck the Pink Ranger

I still would. She is probably still hot.

And for nostalgia.

[brianenvy]

fuck. yes. My dad tried for like a half hour to bribe a little kid to give up his Blue Ranger toy in Toys R' Us one year. Total Jingle All The Way scenario.

haha, great comparison

[sevinw0rds]

What I loved best about Power Rangers (apart from Tommy's sick spin-kicks) was how every single kid who made fun of someone else for watching this was just as a big of a fan. There was some strange stigma attached to the show that would prevent certain kids from admitting they loved it, even if they were the intended age demographic.

And the Putty Patrol were even more incompetent than the island ninjas in Bruce Lee's Enter the Dragon.

I don't know if you guys are just being ironic or something, but after watching some old clips I literally have no fucks to give about this.

[HometownHero]

I'd make her wear the costume. Or just the helmet

[HometownHero]

I'd do it

[SteveD]

Hahha

I remember being the only kid in my second grade class to admit enjoying the Power Rangers. Eventually I learned not to share my entertainment preferences with my peers. It was a pitiful existence.

[achassi]

Tommy = MMA fighter

done.

[eversoinviting]

I used to want to fuck the Pink Ranger
I still want to.

[pseudonym28]

i used to love this so they better not mess this up. i wonder how big the budget will be.

me too. i'm way too excited for this. mmpr was the shit.

i think i was the pink ranger two years in a row for halloween.

/embarrassing confessions.

[4N6 science]

I used to want to fuck the Pink Ranger

Haha so did I. I actually met an actress playing the pink ranger at a power ranger book signing.



I wish I still had my mega-zord. I loved putting that thing together.

[saveferris]

The guy who played the Red Ranger on T.V. was a Firefighter in my old town. I think

[saveferris]

Finally now I can complete my collection. I remember almost pissing my pants when getting these for Christmas. Did anyone else see that live show they did back in like 94? I dressed up as the white ranger and went with my dad. It was breathtaking

[c_rob2700]

This is good and all but I won't be happy until I start seeing Digimon re-runs

[Auals]

She's a singer/songwriter in hollywood now. I learned this a few years ago during a nostalgic Googling experience with a friend.

I just muted it and looked at her pictures.

Wait, what?

Apparently the original red one did gay porn under an alias.

Still has yet to be confirmed or denied.(I only know this because he was born in Roswell)

Did you see the episode where all the red rangers came back for a mission? He totally looked like he'd done gay porn in that episode.

[HelpMeSleep]

oh my god. this is my whole childhood. I honestly cried when Kimberly left Power Rangers. that was possibly the most heartbreaking moment of my life.

this will be permanently recorded on my DVR and if my roommate deletes it, I will kill her.

[HelpMeSleep]

also I feel the need to brag about this... Billy was from my town. his mom worked in the office at my high school. when they sold his house, the family looking at it had a little boy and the realtor told them the blue power ranger used to live there and the house was as good as sold.

[Chrisj182]

MMPR were/are the best things going. Absolute classic.

i heard it wasnt really him and they tried using his name to get it to sell

Oh well that's boring. Plus, I always thought the black ranger was the coolest and now he's a ballroom dancer (from what I heard)

god this is making me all nostalgic

I'll be back after I peruse STC for the first season.

[samsara]

Wow. That's all I can say to that.

Yeah shook my whole world up when I found that out.

Are you serious?! Holy crap!

As a side note, the new episodes suck.

[underdawg1119]

Will definitely buy old-school Megazord again. So stoked.

[stayillogical]

I used to re-enact the movie with my cousins. The best part was jumping off the stairs with our plastic bags as parachutes.

The green one was the best and now he is bad news bears.

me and my best friend were obsessed with this show and my older cousin was too. i didnt know anybody who didnt like the power rangers haha.

[coryatlarge]

i miss the video game for super nintendo too. that shit was so fun to play.

[ThisIsSuchAPity]

i miss the video game for super nintendo too. that shit was so fun to play.

I had that years ago. All I remember were the fights through the shopping mall and on the aircraft carrier.

They should air the MMPR movie, too.

[mutualaddiction]

We actually watched an episode yesterday in my Asian American Studies course, I love when scholars overanalyze kids stuff, it makes them seem so smart.

I came...

[Cheshire_Buddha]

oh my god. this is my whole childhood. I honestly cried when Kimberly left Power Rangers. that was possibly the most heartbreaking moment of my life.

Same, mostly because I had the biggest crush on her.

Hell, I stopped watching Power Rangers because of her exit.

[irthesteve]

the yellow one (asian) went to UCI (big surprise), she also died at a young age

[Thug_Nasty]

power rangers was awesome.

[HelpMeSleep]

she was seriously my idol when I was little. and I wanted to be a valley girl because my mom would always say Kimberly was a valley girl.

Sound pretty serious about a TV show there. It's cool, retro goggles affect us all differently. I'm fairly certian Mighty Max is shit, but I'm not going to ruin the memory of it being completely awesome by looking it up now.

[samsara]

I had all of the origional toys, lost them. Now I have to get the new ones.

[Prestonxsmith]

Anyone ever see the sequel to the first movie? I watched it drunk with my friends way earlier this year. Holy shit it was fucking weird.

[slickwataris]

My Wal-mart finally had the toys in stock. Orgasm achieved.

I picked up Red Ranger, Green Ranger, and Zordon/Alpha 5. Will go back when money allows.

[HelpMeSleep]

when's the original show coming back on tv?

got it. thanks.

[FTeric]

does anyone know if they're coming out with those "spinner" type things that used to have when Power Rangers first came out? i really don't know how to describe them more than just that they were little "top" type things that you spun in an arena and tried to knock the other ones out.

[HelpMeSleep]

pogs?

[FTeric]

no not pogs. there was a little slot in the arena and you put your different Power Ranger top things in there and they all spun around at once. there really was no point to it now that i look back, but man was i obsessed with collecting those things.

[HelpMeSleep]

weird. I don't even remember those and I had like everything power rangers. although my mom might. the other day, she was talking about some head flipping power ranger toy I had and I didn't remember it at all.

[TerrancePryor]

Go Go Power Rangeeeeeeeers!!!!
dunnaaanaaanaaanaaa

[bouttogetfancy]

I want to go back and watch the movie. I think had their christmas movie too.

[slickwataris]

$2 off any Power Ranger figure!

They actually sold out at Wal-mart. I'm surprised.

[cirerelleum]

I recieved the dino megazord for christmas. its amazing because that was the one zord i never had while i was into them. i had everything up to turbo. i feel the circle is now complete.

Me too! My mom would never buy me the megazords.


Just watched the series finale for Power Rangers: RPM and they had a preview for Mighty Morphin. It will air next Saturday like I predicted.

[slickwataris]

it's coming

[slickwataris]

just a couple more minutes

[slickwataris]

Damn, they keep adding in these stupid special effects and comic book word balloons. And they ditched the old logo.

[cirerelleum]

I do not approve.

[TerrancePryor]

There was also another one called I'm Dreaming of a White Ranger.

:shudder:

[samsara]

Why do they feel the need to add all of those lame effects?

[slickwataris]

it gets worse

FIBXcrXToaA

[samsara]

I can only get through part of it. Its so cheesy now. :-(

[cirerelleum]

I didn't think it was possible to dumb the show down, but they found a way.

[poser_281]

they fucking ruined the toy line!! the weapons are like half the size of the first ones...and the figures are like 3 inches tall!!
i hate it!!

[TerrancePryor]

I got so fucking pissed when I saw those shitty effects.M-(

[slickwataris]

Toy update: I now own all 8 of the regular figures, action Green Ranger, Dino Megazord, and the deluxe Dragon Dagger. They had the strangest MMPR figures at Target today, red/green/blue/black rangers that transform into dragons, and a Red Ranger that transforms into a race car. I almost want the dragon ones.

As for the televised edits, I'm slowly getting accustomed to them. The only ones I hate are the stupid commercial bumpers. They make no sense and mess with story continuity (which is a big deal now that I'm 17 years older and am 100x more likely to spot the Japanese from American footage).

[B-Bones]

I remember playing Power Rangers on the playground in first grade. I used to always have to be the blue ranger, cause his name was Billy and I was always pissed cause he was the wimpy, nerdy one.

[underdawg1119]

So I nerded out and youtube'd a video of the new Megazord, and I am completely disappointed. The Triceratops and Saber Tooth Tiger don't even have wheels, you can't move the Mastodon's trunk, the sword is dull, soft plastic and since when the fuck does the Pterodactyl have feet?

Now that I watched the above videos, I'm pretty underwhelmed by this whole thing.. :-(

[SkyHeldUpByStar]

Oh dear god, what have they done?

[rising_tied]

oh...my... GOD this is the greatest news of the year so far

EDIT:.....wait im watching it the vids that have been posted now.. IDK if im that excited. And I also dont know if kids know what Cohorts means

EDIT numero dos- I am sad

[slickwataris]

Ever wonder why the yellow ranger didn't have a skirt but pink did? That's because in the original Kyōryū Sentai Zyuranger series, the yellow ranger was a dude. Another childhood mystery solved.

Also, Rita Repulsa (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machiko_Soga) and Trini (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thuy_Trang)are dead.
