(I had the unfortunate encounter of meeting Summer Glau once. At least in that instance, she was a very unpleasant young woman.) |

So both Johnny Yong Bosch and Steve Cardenas have said on Facebook that they liked it. I'm a bit surprised, but I'm curious to see what other cast members think as well.

The satire seems intentional. There's just way too many Hollywood cliches for it not to be. The Youtube comments are hilarious though. So many people don't get it, and insist they should really do this. lol

This. This exactly.
I've made my thoughts pretty clear on both Twitter and Facebook. This is awful in almost every single way. I guess I have to commend the thought they put into crafting the story, but it missed the mark in every single way. Unnecessarily dark and gory, turning heroes into villains etc. It represents just about everything I hate about Hollywood remakes these days. And despite somehow getting a big name like Katee Sachoff on board, she still gave a flat and uninspired performance. That said, if this thing really IS meant as parody/commentary then its both genius and depressing. The general consensus for this video from non-fans who grew up with MMPR is shocking. The idea that everything from your childhood has to grow up with you is nauseating. I'm not convinced that is the case at all though, it all sounds like backtracking to me. You could make that kind of point on a fraction of the budget and effort. This just has "make a popular viral video" written all over it. It won't be. It's a reboot of the original concept, if anything we might (And I stress MIGHT) get some sort of small reunion for DC the show. |

David Yost being gay and the "outrage" over it is a long dead and buried issue. The fandom are largely in full support of him and his preferences, whats the problem? |

why would anyone care? So they migratedthe original actor being gay into the actual character aswell, so what?
David Yost being gay and the "outrage" over it is a long dead and buried issue. The fandom are largely in full support of him and his preferences, whats the problem? When they found out that this was incorporating the fact that the actress who played Trini was dead (the funeral scene), the fandom lost its shit. "HOW DARE THEY PORTRAY THAT SHE DIED IN TO THIS MOVIE?!" "THE CHARACTER IS ALIVE BUT THE ACTRESS IS NOT, SO MUCH POOR TASTE!" Yet, here they allude to the fact that Billy is gay - even though the character was never portrayed as such, just the actor. So where's the uproar? This has nothing to do with anyone and their sexual preference - this is just over the fact the fandom picks and chooses what it gets upset about.
