Looks like the twitch stream is playing a bunch of the user generated clips now.

Which would have been nice earlier, instead of watching that annoying little girl say boys are grossss.

Can't get enough of Billy getting owned by the snek tho.

This was the biggest surprise for me. I knew they mocked the silliness of the source material and franchise (the googlyeyed zords, random explosions), but everything else was surprisingly entertaining. The bad guy is Skynet and one of the rangers is Wolverine and it all takes place in Mad Max's wasteland, complete with a black on black supercharged musclecar.

This is better than power rangers deserves frankly. They need to threaten to kill the franchise more often.

Monster Heads was last night. Got a few wonderful clips out of that before I called it a night.

I didn't see the Alpha Christmas special, but I was Tommy AFK for a few.

I got some of those restricted from posting for 10 minutes sanctions against me. Who knew THIQQ and Autist were Twitch Trigger words. ???

Kelsey was the first and apparently last female Ranger to be in absolutely ridiculous​ shape.

But more than that her personality on screen really sells how much fun her character has.

I will say going Maya to Kelsey was a good reason for me to keep watching Rangers when I started to cool off on it. :3:

Been watching a bunch of the first season on netflix past couple days, in a cold induced bit of madness, it is a good time! Show holds up better than I thought it would, being so fast paced and crazy, it's more fast paced than Super Sentai series generally are, which I've seen more of. I forgot it had that going for it. Also compares more favorably to stuff like Buffy (one of my favs) than I'd figure, this show aged like a fine wine I dare say.

And that music guy Ron was on point! Was nice to have such shredding tunes in grade school. The guy did the X-Men theme song too!

Is Mighty Morphin Season 1 really that fast paced? It's like 60 episodes long, and I have to assume some of that is filler.

In every 18? minute episode roughly 20 plots begin and resolve. On top of that, the show is held together by a franticly paced soundtrack telling you just how hyped you should be at any given moment.

MMPR Episode 2.

VO Guy Summary:
Today on Power Rangers, Trini reveals she has a fear of heights. But when she and Billy are ambushed by a team of putties :Billy climbs rocks: "OH NO BILLY, YOU'RE TOO HIGH UP", will Trini be able to conquer her fear in time to save Billy and defeat Rita's newest monster?

Actual ep summary:
[b]After seeing Jason climb a rope at Ernie's Juice Bar, Trini reveals to the other Ranger teens that she is terrified of heights. Bulk and Skull show up and try the rope, only for Bulk to have the ceiling crash down on him. Billy then unveils his latest invention: wrist communicators with which the rangers can contact Zordon and also teleport to the Command Center. On the moon, Rita decides to trap the rangers in a time warp the same way she did Zordon. Squatt and Baboo send a rigged toy rocket to Earth that activates the time warp. Rita has Finster create the zombie-like Bones monster to control the time warp. Zordon sends the teens to defeat a small band of Putties. During the fight, Billy gets chased to the top of a cliff where he drops his morpher, and Trini must face her fears to go up and save him. With the Putty Patrol retreating, the Rangers morph to confront Bones but are sucked into the time warp. Baboo and Squat plant a bomb in the warp to trap the Rangers. Trini destroys Bones' head but Rita sends down a giant knight monster. Jason destroys the monster using the Tyrannosaurus Zord. At Ernie's, Zach surprises Trini, causing her to rapidly climb the rope from the beginning. Roll Credits.

Did the latest Legacy Wars update break the game for anyone else?

Half my matches now have unplayable lag, and the other half get me stuck on a screen like this (which also results in a loss for an added kick in the balls):


It's a pretty cool F2P Power Rangers game, but this isn't giving me much hope the game'll have legs.

I haven't had any problems yet. I play primarily over LTE instead of wifi. Better connections definitely provide better matches.

I loving love MMPR season 1.

It's a shockingly very average toku series, which I mean with all the highest praise I can muster because it should have been a disaster.

The Green Ranger storylines are the series at its strongest because they're the most Super Hero stuff in the whole thing.

That's a huge difference between MMPR and Zyuranger- ZyuRanger is fantasy knight stuff with robots and lazers. MMPR is straight up super hero stuff

The team seem seem to be one of the best off after PR.
Red and Blue both have recurring roles in a soap opera, Green has his own indie studio. Navy and yellow have minor careers. Crimson doesn't even have a wiki page.

RPM is also good because they basically said gently caress the budget and therefore probably had more money per episode compared to other seasons. It also had Lynn working on it, the man who probably did more for Power Rangers than Saban himself
