Power Rangers (original) - White Ranger Watch

Accept Power Rangers Blargh or im turning your name to Pink Ranger.

ah power ranger...first time I figured I had the yellow fever

Yep, I missed this thread too. Didn't even get a single post in it. This show was an integral part of my development. I owe every aspect of my adult life to its influence.

There were a few holes though. As Matt asked, why didn't Rita die on the moon? What was she trying to accomplish with all of her deviance? The bad guys in general. Their motives were never explained. We had no idea what their objectives were.

How about this for a blow-your-fucking-mind - How do we know that the Power Rangers were the good guys? They seemed to have the police force under their thumb the entire time. What if the Power Rangers were the evil force suppressing us while the "villains" were actually only trying to work as liberators? Wouldn't we feel like pawns! I'm serious, think about it. Their name itself "Power Rangers" just screams dictation and plotting to turn the world into automatons. I used to envy the Rangers for their valor, but now that I've really looked into it. We should have been fighting back.

At least the puddies had the courage to do that.

very intriguing ray

It's all coming together. Zordon was the mastermind behind it all. He was put in his sewer for being too powerful, supposedly. Yet, his layer is underground, while Rita and the baddies have their celestial layer in the heavens? HELLO! The symbolism is there, it's obvious. The benevolent force of the universe comes from above (God) while the ambivalent force come from below (Satan). Why mess with hundreds of thousands of years of concrete established symbolism in a kids' show? That's because they didn't.

Have you ever heard of an partial presenter? That's what we had! The cameramen, the narrators, the characters they were all skewed to be presented in a positive light while the whole time, the real heroes were the ineffective, bumbling oafs in the sky. They were presented as sadists or violent power-hungry abominations, but it's easy to skew it all that way. I could do the same thing against the Power Rangers and make them seem like the bad guys. It's all a huge conspiracy to keep the people as sheep.

OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES.

That is insane. And mad. You should be shot for being an insane madman.

For a start, the Rangers represented the purest force of good the world, nay, the universe has ever seen. We can see this because all racially equal teams work for the forces of good: Captain Planet, The Magic School Bus, the list goes on. If it weren't for them, we'd all be neutered and made out of putty, with balls for hands, giant mutant fish stamping on our buildings.

Now let us entertain the theory that they were evil. And you say we should have fought back? Gobbledegook. They triumphed time and again over a witch living on the moon with unimaginable power and an infinite army of hellish monsters. Their lycra gave them invincibility. They drove ROBOTS THE SIZE OF SKYSCRAPERS...SHAPED LIKE DINOSAURS. Nothing will ever be better than that.

"Oh, look, I'm James Bond in my fast sports car and oh my god, I just got crushed to death in the robotic jaws of a Tyrannosaurus Rex."

god damn so many things to sig in that post liam.

but I have to agree with ray, simple because the god to satan reference it just adds up,

edit - also the government pays the power rangers salary so I mean come on, of course there evil

But that's just it, we've already discussed in detail how they WEREN'T racially equal. They reinforced stereotypes and were steadfast advocates for WHITE supremacy. Why do you think Tommy was the ultimate Ranger? The best of the best. The Black dude wasn't even a contender, it was an epic battle for supremacy between two WHITE men. Both were Anglo-Saxons and Protestants too. They formed together to create the Grand DragonZord (a common name for the leader of the KKK).

THERE GOES THAT ARGUMENT.

Why do you think she has infinite power? Because she is God! She has been sending prophet after prophet in puddy form to warn us of the impending doom that the Dark Lord Zordon is plotting for us. But, we don't give them time to speak to us, to try and learn their language. This is another case of the Babel-Effect, we're too ignorant and headstrong to learn the language of a people trying to help us. Those are angels sent from Heaven to warn us, and we kill them. That's why they're so susceptible. Rita isn't going to hand-feed us freedom, we have to earn it through respect and understanding. We can't just overreact and hit em' in the Evapo-button once we see them.

As for the Hellbeasts, that's Rita telling us to stop fucking up. She's sending them down there to eliminate the dark Power Rangers and make sure that we know that shit's up. HELLO! Giant Hellbeasts attacking the world? If that's not an omen, I don't know what is. Fools.

I think every one is putting waaaay too much thought in this. Image file not present in the recovered backup

im downloading the first 3 seasons right now haha 20 some gigs woo!!

You're not putting enough. You're not putting enough. Zordon will kill us all.

trying to find conspiracy theories in power ranger episodes? come on guys...

go outside and toss a baseball around or something..

I'm not trying to find anything. It's there. You go outside and toss a salad. Rita is God. Nick will be crippled.

Granted, they weren't equal, but my point remains that they had a representative from all walks of life, like a model UN that can kill you with lasers. Let's not forget that the most powerful Zord was based on Godzilla; and I'm sure we're all aware that he's been a Japanese citizen for almost seventy years. There was nothing corrupt in the Rangers. Only that Kimberly chose Jason over Rocky. That harlot.


We have it on good authority that God is not some slanty-eyed, scratchy-voiced Queen of PMS. He's an old man, probably not with a physical form. Is it coincidence that the letters O and D of "God" are both found in the name Zordon? How many are found in "Rita Repulsa"? Rita is evil, it is common fact. She tempted Tommy with the power of the Green Ranger: another parallel to Satan. Not to mention Green. She used Tommy's envy of Rocky as the basis for the power of the Green Ranger. One of the deadly sins. Would Zordon utilise such a heinous method? I think not.

I could go on, but I think I've proved my point.

then what about whn rita brought ooze into the operation ray?
a being with the power to control the masses?
he tried to make the parents of the city go the way of the lemming
right off a cliff
and where was god?
stuck in a snow globe
no true god would A. be capture in a souvinere B. bring a creatur in to take over control C. kill all the adults to stop the "evil ones"

Model UN my shitter! Where were the Muslims? Australians? Hell, the Power Rangers idea of Diversity had nothing to do will melonin and everything to do with killing black people. The idea that their Zord was based on Godzilla is absurd - but okay, I'll bite - say it is based on Godzilla, is Godzilla not an evil death lizard? Don't even bring Mothra into this.

Why does God have to be a man? Fact - there are more women on earth than men. Fact - there are more people of Asian pigmentation and ethnicity than of Caucasian. God made people in His/Her own likeness, ring a bell? That's right.

Don't get all Da Vinci Code on me with the linguistics of the names. That is mere coincidence. Zordon is also a corruption of the name Zondor, a Norse God of the underworld. THAT is not a coincidence my friend.

The symbolism of the Green Ranger suit is pretty solid, I like that angle and see where you're coming from. But, consider this - Tommy ultimately was given the White Suit by Zondor, sorry Zordon, and white symbolizes purity and peace. Yet, he is the most powerful Ranger of them all - his ability to destroy far surpasses any other Ranger's. This is Zordon spitting in the face of all humanity. Why have a Power Ranger with the most destructive power be White? Irony, my friends, irony. Irony is a common aspect of humor and jest. Jest leads to argument. Argument leads to fisticuffs.

And we all know where fisticuffs lead.

Flynn, you stay out of this!

lol sorry

you people have waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too much time on your hands. im gonna jack off.

Liam and Ray now have a masters degree in Power Rangers
I still have the crappy rubber white ranger sword somewhere with the talking head
I'm really not surprised that the red ranger became a gay porn star(or so I've heard) jumping around in a lyrica suit having balls thrown at you

This is turning out to be the greatest argument that I have read on these forums in the longest time

This is the greatest thread since Seth

Wow, an actual somewhat intellegent and coherent conversation on HGF?
Did I miss something?

Don't worry, it's just about Power Rangers

this guy has the whole movie into his videos section Image file not present in the recovered backup

Liam knows his shit.



As for Rita being good, bullshit. She said in every episode she wanted to destroy the planet.

/end.

Wonder what there all doing now?

porn, dead, crackhead, porn, dead.....


thats my guess.


EDIT:: check it out here http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0106064/ find who you want n see wtf their doing now.

To much work.

Okay, I'll own up to it all.

I don't really believe that Rita is good and all that shit I said. She was giving me moon pussy in return for saying that. It was good.
