Power Rangers Armor Up

power rangers

Some fans for the Power Rangers are not to pleased with Entertainment Weekly‘s pic of the new Power Ranger look for the upcoming feature film.  To me I don’t let history get me to down about things.  I try to go with the flow so I can enjoy the, in this case, movie.  When you think about it though it makes since that the Power Rangers would have armor on because of the creatures they are battling…it gives them that extra layer of protection.  And I think the original look might have been this way, but you have to remember this was a Japanese children’s show that probably didn’t have much of a budget so they had to go with the look that they went with.  And yes I understand that look is what endears Power Rangers with fans and can feel for you in that regard.  I will go in just to have fun.
