    I saw power rangers many years later and was amazed at how horrible it was. Why did we ever think this was fun?

          Imagine having to portray every emotion using nothing but the varying frenzy of your arm wavings.

          That would probably be because they hired martial artists to act instead of teaching actors to do martial arts. For better or worse I respect that decision. Even if Haim Saban is a homophobic Zionist piece of shit.

      cause we were dumb kids and had the power of imagination.

      Now we’re adults with failing health, beaten down by life and full of regret, and we cast a longing eye back to our better days and can only see the flaws,as we have long since lost the wonder.

      Because back then, it was different from everything else. The over the top movements, 5 little robot dinosaurs turning into a giant robot, the monsters being eclectic.
