Tattooed Teenage Alien Fighters from Beverly Hills is a real show?

Someone posted a clip two pages ago.

No I don't know the context for that.

It's like the worst possible Power Rangers ripoff a person could make.

Oh really when?

What about Los Luchadores?

No, you're right. Tattooed Teenagers is even worse.

It was a different time. Power Rangers was hugely successful and everyone wanted some of that sweet Power Ranger money.

In ten years, we will look back on the "Everyone be the Marvel Cinematic Universe" craze the same way we look back on the "Everyone be Power Rangers" craze today.

I mean it could have been worse. At least the main hero guy was hispanic.

As opposed to Power Rangers, which had a black guy as the Black Ranger, an Asian woman as the Yellow Ranger, and a Caucasian woman as the Pink Ranger.

I mean, yay diversity, but...really?

I mean, at least there was more than one woman.

And a woman that wasn't white at that.

I never actually noticed that color coded bit.

To be fair, if "Everyone be the MCU" ends up as having a bunch of otherwise different films sharing the same universe, I probably won't complain so long as it's done reasonably well.

[up][up] It's something that has existed in films before, as noted on the Shared Universe page. It's just something that has really been codified by the MCU, in part because of how different each of the components are.

To be fair at least to the Black Ranger bit, Zack's actor has said that he was originally supposed to be the blue ranger but wanted to be the black ranger because the helmet was cooler. He didn't realize the awkward implications until after they'd already started filming.

I mean, if it was like the third or fourth season and that had happened it would have been one thing, but the fact that that was there from the very beginning makes it sort of, suspicious.

When Vegeta counts eight Androids, I think he must have started counting Cell twice now that he knows of both the Cell in the basement and the Cell from the future.

The movie doesn't fit into continuity so that can work.

Saiga is both Toriyama and Kaiserneko so clearly that must be the case.
