Eh. Raiden, Shao Kahn, Shinnok, and Quan Chi are the best they got. Thor / Wonder Woman duo the whole thing.

Is this a mass shooting or just a shooting? It could be a gang-related or escalation from an argument or a fight. We need more details.

Why is it only a "mass shooting" when a white foreveralone shoots four people?

Because they shoot a lot of people that is best described as mass

...but not when a disgruntled employee or gang-banger shoot four or more people?

Four or more sounds like a mass. Idk what you think

Four is apparently the threshold for "mass" shooting, depending on who you ask.

Are we ever going to admit that showing the shooter's picture, making him a household name, and telling his story is exactly what's enticing these people to do this?

I still cant believe that was a real thing that was meant to be taken seriously.

They did Billy dirty in season 3.

No, Dacre Montgomery revealed in a recent interview that a new Power Rangers film will be made, but with different actors. So another remake.

Aw, that sucks. That cast was so great and the sequel had a ton of potential

This.

Also, no, the cast being paragons of virtue leaves no room for character growth. It worked in the OG series because, well, it was an episodic series and not a movie.

Are there any lasting damages in either option

I actually recall reading how Yost tried to play the character with a straight sexuality, so he would rather Billy stay straight. Might have dreamed that up tho.

I don't know David Yost's feelings on the situation, but that's how George Takei felt about Sulu from Star Trek.

Idk about great. The martial arts was whack. Zords were cool, but the megazord was lame. Plus how Goldar had zero lines smh. Zordon, like everyone else, seemed out of character.

Loved Rita tho.

Ok, you're right about the megazoid, and goldar (that was bullshit), but for what it was worth it was a good fm. Worthy of a sequel. This reboot of a reboot is bullshit.

I made this topic concerning a remake that ignores the most recent racebending film. I would prefer the original genders, races, etc. Although I'm actually okay with Billy being gay to honor David Yost being gay.

You can make one or two changes. But if you're going to change everybody, you might as well make it an original team. It's not like later seasons didn't replace all of the cast members anyway.

And, yeah, I'd be fine with Billy being gay. If I were directing, I'd ask him first though to make sure he was cool with it. Considering he left the show because he was tired of putting up with homophobia, it might be more like salt in an old wound than any sort of a tribute.

<_<

Yeah I really wanted to see female Tommy rival the red ranger.

That last movie was great. If it ain't broke, don't fix it

OK, that's sucks.

If I'm correct, isn't a sequel for the 2017 still happening?

This time around, they should go with an original cast. (Essentially what they should've done the last time around.)

The Power Rangers team was pretty diverse to begin with and that has been maintained and expanded upon from generation to generation. But it seemed unnecessary to keep the names of the original cast of characters when, to a person, each got changed in one way or another.

And it'd be doubly silly if they once again shuffled everybody's sex, orientation, or ethnicity while still calling them Jason, Zach, Billy, Kimberly, and Trini. If the leader of the team is a black gay male, don't call him Jason. Call him Michael. The story will work just the same without the hokey nostalgia bait of calling him Jason.

Besides, having an original team might even open the door to making the team leader a girl.

A reboot of a remake?
