If you think that, along the way, you're not going to fail... you're blind.

There's no one I've ever met, no matter how successful they are, who hasn't said they had their failures along the way.

I really, really hope Austin St. John thinks "it's morphine time" every time he's cleared to administer.

Also, I want a ride in Austin St. John's ambulance :v:

I hate the lack of eyes.

The Zords, even in MMPR, were alive to some degree.

Removing the eyes in favor of mesh or, apparently in the Mammoth's case, exposed gears(?!?!) just dehumanizes them even more.


The one nice thing I can say is that it looks like the T-Rex will be standing up right, which would be a neat little nod. No loving clue what Jason is standing on in that picture though.

The Zords will also have personalities, and be voiced by your favorite actors and celebrities, like Adam Sandler!

Oh God bless it

Looking at it with more scrutiny, it looks like he is sitting on the tail and from the way the leg is built, it looks like it'll have a 'realistic' T-Rex build.

He's riding on the T-Rex rear end. Which means I don't know what the gently caress that jaw looking thing is.

It's just an unfortunate coincidence that they used that tagline with one of the first bits of solo-Yellow marketing we've seen since the casting announcement.

I understand where the reference lays. I suppose I misinterpreted where the issue was, though.

I was certainly saying that if someone sees an Asian person and a vehicle and they immediately think "well this is in bad taste of poor Asian driver jokes!", they are not being conducive to correcting the issue. Although I'm nothing but guilty of that myself, now.

Maybe.... nevermind?

People pointing out racism are the real racists, amirite?

I'm of the mind that this is tasteless for two reasons, and pointing that out really shouldn't be as big a deal as people are making it.

"It's a little hosed up."

"Sure is."

is about all the conversation this warrants.

"Driver's Ed not required"

I know that they were just making a joke about a teenager operating a massive robot sabertooth...but given that the original actress for the Yellow Ranger died in a car crash, it came off as just a hair tone deaf. They could have switched that tagline with any other ranger's and nobody would have batted an eye at it.

When in doubt, err on the side of Awesome!

So for my podcast I got my co-hosts to agree to watch the two Power Rangers movies. After Turbo they showed some interest in doing an episode about basing an rpg campaign on the show. I put together a quick list of episodes to watch to get familiar with the cliches that was maybe 3-4 hours worth of episodes. My older co-host has watched like 8 hours of episodes and is only into season 2 or three so far.

I think I may have accidentally turned him into a fan.

Dino Charge 13 wasn't too bad, the Monster Vs Monster fight in the Megazord was a neat idea and it's nice to see the plot finally return. Not sure about Arcanon's voice though, he seems to range from tolerable to trying way too hard. Though unrealted this does bring up a thought, since they're going to keep filming there anyway why not have a season that canonically takes place in New Zealand rather than keep pretending it's America?
