YOU DID! I mean, that entire post was genuinely touching. Like, thank you so much for keeping this up over the past month to get to this point. This has been an extremely fun ride, and that passionate summary of a random "filler" episode made for one heck of a climax.
I— I don't like to say this when I have so many nebulous plans floating around in my brain at any given time, but one of my ideas for a big Kuuga rewatch style thread that I've considered more than most is actually just one where I would go back through at least the first season of MMPR and just kinda ramble about how goofy and fun each episode is, like exactly how you did here, but almost certainly worse.
This is a franchise that, as I mentioned at the start, I'm not consistently passionate about, but I very occasionally see this sort of elitist attitude crop up among toku fans that Power Rangers, and especially the MMPR days, is like this big embarrassment you're obligated to dismiss as cheesy kids stuff, despite that being exactly why most of us are here anyway, and I kinda wanted to do something to demonstrate that Mighty Morphin' was a phenomenon (and make no mistake, it was
inescapably
huge) for a legitimate reason, and that there was genuine value in that sugar rush of inspirational heroic energy and the simple positive values it always stressed, not in spite of how hopelessly silly it all was, but
because
of it.
And I mean, just sayin', but if you wanted to make a thread doing opinionated Ranger Recaps or whatever,
I'd be reading it in a heartbeat
. You have an infectious love for this franchise I don't think I could hope to match. I know I literally just said this, but thank you for doing this whole countdown. I didn't end up having too much to say, but I really looked forward to each and every one of these posts over the past few weeks.
