Everyone knows about them. Hell I started watching at about 5 and threw out until they ended with the one about them looking fotr a new home. This thing has been overused to hell. Jesus christ the people in charge keep churning out shows every year! Dont you think its time for it to die?? power Rangers was cool in the 90s with its sheeap special Godzilla like Effects but its time to die in 2005. So the question is..why do compainies keep trying to reive old series?? and the power Rangers??

What is up with all these new incarnations? Power Rangers: In The Lost Galaxy, Power Rangers: Back In The Ice Age, Power Rangers: Smokin Weed, Power Rangers: Disco Party, Power Rangers: Iron Chef, etc

You did NOT just make a Power Ranger thread. This is just a figment of my imagination. You didn't make a Power Ranger thread. If you did, I would have to go 1985 on your ass.

Power rangers died on TV in NZ about >10 years ago. I didnt even realise they still existed

Would you rather me make a thread about Cindy sheehan or rush limbo Or jesus vs Mike Tyson?? Nobody wants to see that.

Meh, it is a change. Why couldn't you make it about chocolate, or cute puppies? Why did it have to be the POWER RANGERS.

Power Rangers sucked IMO. Man they pissed me off as a kid

I loved it as a kid till they finshed the oner in space were I lost all track.

I loved the Power Rangers back when I was 6.

Then they kind of raped it.

Ok here's some 411 on the Power Rangers.

Saban has been taking Japaneese Senti teams and reworking the footage into american shows. Basically anytime you see the PR's in their costumes, you're seeing footage shot and previously shown in Japan

As long as it remains popular here he'll probably keep doing it. We've been running about a season behind Japan. Their curret Senti team it Mystic Force. Should be interesting to see what they call it here.

For several seasons the Saban team tried to keep the same characters. That ended with the end of PR In Space I believe. The only real tie over from the to Lost Galaxy was the space ship the PRIS show used. After that there was no real ties between the groups. Only exception was Tommy Olliver comming back in Dino Thinder to be the Black Ranger

I have 4 kids who grew up on the early PR and my current mate has a son who (at 6) loves them. And sadly I can pretty much name off all the diffrent groups. Not allthe characters names mind you because there were several seasons I missed.

I think they're kinda of neat and, being the Transformers freak that I am, really like the Zords concepts.

The more I see the new Power Rangers, the more I realize the original series (the show had characters from the original series up until the pilot for Power Rangers in space or whatever the hell it was where the citizens of Earth hauled their collective, strangely not-fat asses onto a space ship and set off for the middle of space apparently) was great in its lameness. The storyline might have gotten crazier every year (people from another galaxy who lived under water come to Earth to fill in for the Power Rangers? Come on), it was still the weird ass original plot line. Now it's weird crazy shit like the Power Rangers are cops not random teenagers given power suits and giant robots straight from a Godzilla movie.

But the shows were still pretty lame, the best thing was the toys. The original series with the bots and the Dragonzord or whatever it was was bad ass, then the next one with the chiense dragon zord and the rest could clip onto it to make it uber-zord. We have one set, but its from the movie, and somehow the newer they get the crappier they get. Same with most of the rest of action figures too, but that is another topic..

Mighty Morphin' Power Murder:

http://www.hollywood.com/news/detail/article/2444190

Former child actor Skylar Deleon, who is already facing trial for hijacking a yacht and murdering the owners by throwing them overboard, has been charged in a second murder case.

Deleon, 26, who once appeared in the Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers TV series, now stands accused of luring Jon Peter Jarvi to Mexico in December 2003, slitting his throat and leaving his body by the side of a road.

I just saw this case on CourtTV...

Anyways, onto my opinion.. I think Power Rangers is crappy and should be buried as an idea.

He was an extra, he probably got eaten by that Giant Toad monster or the Mosnter who trapped people in his magical pot of trapping or whatever it was.

He was called the Fan man. Oh God. I remeber the villians. Jesus Christ was I a Power Rangers freak when I little. True the toys were fucking badass but not the cheap plastic shit today.

The Power Rangers were the gayest thing, since gay came to Gaytown.

The zord toys did indeed rock, and they did indeed get crappier the longer it went on.

Then why does Mesa hate them? :p

The Power Rangers started when I was about 5 or 6, so that makes them.....13-14 years old! Tell me if I get the order right: It's morphin' time! Mastadon! Triceratops! Pterodactyl! Saber-toothed Tiger! Tyrannosaurus!

yeah you got it right. The old zords were so awsome becaus they were like Transformers but you could connect them and just make it look so cool. today I think there worth quite a bit of money.

So the question is..why do compainies keep trying to reive old series?? and the power Rangers??the history of the Power rangers dates back to 1975 where the first super team was assembled. Go Rangers. in japan.

and how many people here remembers the US attempt to create their own, non-imported, version of Power rangers...
