I grew up heavy with power rangers and though I am disspointed that the blue isn't the nerd, black ain't black and Asian ain't yellow, I moved on. What can we do?

I guess i may be in the minority but im disappointed that they pullin this breaking barrier thing .... i grew up when the black ranger was black, yellow was asian when they switched to the ninajs and it changed i was cool with it. But if this is OG Power Rangers than just do it how it was.

Oh well im still gonna watch and i hope its good. I actually pulled out my OG Power Rangers the movie ... boy that ish is corny still watched the whole thing.

Man i had a suitcase full of rangers n zords. Zords better nt be no damn transformers tho


Sooooo what about Tommy though? No green or white ranger?

 

[rfx45]

Green Rangers probably going to be in the end credit scene to tease the sequel.

 

[alleyzonjay]

wasnt JDF rumored to make a cameo or did that fall through? im happy were only getting the OG 5.. its only the first movie...

 

[Fozz]

What are the odds that the Megazord is going to look like a Transformers?

As long as it resembles a legit Megazord...Not like that Megazord from the first film.

Becky Gomez doesn't look too bad.

 

[dopeness]

Nicki Minaj probably would've made an ill Rita Repulsa:

[Master Zik]

Oh wow, so the Latina really was named Trini

 

[everysingletime]

Surprised that ppl would think of Trini as an exclusively asian name like that

 

[blacklion23]

[shogun]

[rfx45]

Lol at the Asian guy lookin the most alpha of the group

Maybe he should've been Jason

 

[robtoofresco]

First time in this thread...

WHERE THE **** IS TOMMY, B???

 

[slighted]

Asian dude is playing Zack, right?

Zack was the coolest dude in the OG group.

 

 

[Master Zik]

Surprised that ppl would think of Trini as an exclusively asian name like that

Doesn't sound exclusively like it belongs to any region really.

Also the Yellow Ranger's full name was Trini Kwan. Maybe that's what I should've led with

I mean if you start typing Trini in google tell me what comes up isn't Trinidad & Tobago

But hey maybe the name was short for Trinity all this time
