    It'll be hard to beat the first one but I hope it does.

    I hope the original green ranger is in it. He still looks good for his age. Also it will be very easy to beat the first one with today's technology. This can only be amazing.

    Are you somehow unfamiliar with pretty much every Hollywood reboot of shows from our childhood?

    I'll believe this is a good thing when it's out and actually turns out to be good.

    Yeah, Pike. Don't jinx it. We have to be prepared to go to war.

    My real name is Tommy and I have the Dragon Dagger. I know what I have to do to keep the peace.

    I don't think you get it, I want this to be the next Transformers

    I want to pay a bunch of money to go watch explosions and lens flares and the Power Ranger theme for two hours

    Unless this turns out to be the next Citizen Kane I have no reason not to be stoked

    The Power Rangers was already live action, so it has that going for it. Animated series especially seem to have trouble translating to live action big screen deals. I've heard the first Power Rangers movie had a ton of people in it that turned out to become pretty big names in the industry. (As in production staff, not actors.)

    Especially the second Transformers movie was just smurfing confusing. It was just a cluster smurf of rapidly moving camera angles, and tangles of robots rolling around in a combat ball.

    I'll take Orson Wells as Unicron and the original animated movie every day of the week.

    But the transformers movies were bad, especially because of the technology.

    I'd like a Jason David Frank cameo. One of the rangers is excited about getting their new powers and they bump into him and he spills his coffee or something like that.

    Lens flares are JJ Abrams territory. Also don't count on hearing the original PR theme. (lol PR)

    I wonder what they mean by superpower. Is that them being too stupid to know the difference between actual superpowers and being given advanced technology? Or do you think each individual member will have unique abilities? I hope Zack gets like super breakdance fighting skills. Jason and Tommy can have some take on super strength. Natural Billy's got to have dat 12th Lv Intellect that they boast about on DC. Truthfully though, I hope Tommy's not in it. I never approved of the show constantly being a sausage-fest, so if there ends up being a Green Ranger, I hope it'll be a girl. It would especially be awesome if she went on to be the White Ranger (woman in white).
    Jack: How do you know?

    Will: It's more of a feeling really.

    Jack: Well, that's not scientific. Feeling isn't knowing. Feeling is believing. If you believe it, you can't know because there's no knowing what you believe. Then again, no one should believe what they know either. Once you know anything that anything becomes unbelievable if only by virtue of the fact you now... know it. You know?

    Will: No.

    If Demolition Man were remade today

    Huxley: What's wrong? You broke contact.
    Spartan: Contact? I didn't even touch you.
    Huxley: Don't you want to make love?
    Spartan: Is that what you call this? Why don't we just do it the old-fashioned way?
    Huxley: NO!
    Spartan: Whoa! Okay, calm down.
    Huxley: Don't tell me to calm down!
    Spartan: What's gotten into you? 'Cause it sure as hell wasn't me.
    Huxley: Physical relations in the way of intercourse are no longer acceptable John Spartan.
    Spartan: What? Why the hell not?
    Huxley: It's the law, John. And for your information, the very idea that you suggested it makes me feel personally violated.
    Spartan: Wait a minute... violated? Huxley what the hell are you accusing me of here?
    Huxley: You need to leave, John.
    Spartan: But Huxley.
    Huxley: Get out!
    Moments later Spartan is arrested for "violating" Huxley.

    By the way, that's called satire. Get over it.

    This is so weird. First a big screen big budget TMNT reboot, now this?

    It would be so bizarre to see a new generation of kids who like a bastardized version of the things I grew up liking.
    I like Kung-Fu.
