The movie's going to suck for one simple reason: no Bulk and Skull. They were the heart and soul of the show.
Nothing in this movie will top the terrible acting, corny dialogue, over-the-top fighting, cringe-inducing toy sequences when the Zords showed up, or the silly guys fighting in rubber suits. These are all things that made the show endearingly campy. There's a kind of charm to it's awfulness. $10 says the remake/reboot will have 0 charm or camp and be instantly forgettable.

I'm not merely saying that the show wasn't high art. No, I'm saying the show was always unwatchable dog shit.
And this film doesn't look like it will be any better based of the most recent trailer.

I hear ya, and where's the Putty Patroll? Guess they thought some random rock monsters would be more intense to fight as grunts than some clay-heads.
Apparently the rock monster materialize from debris around the area when Rita summons them. Goldar seems to be actually made of gold.
Spoiler:
Not sure if this is a spoiler or not, but it seems Rita is out to steal large amounts of gold in this movie. Hence Goldar.

Agree with this.
The show always felt like a bargain store knockoff of other way better shows like Voltron , Japanese Spider-Man and others.

I just watched cause at the time I lived where Cable TV will never come and Sat TV was still a pipe dream, that and it had some hot babes jumping around in skimpy/tight clothes...
Amy Jo Johnson...MmmmmHMM!!!
I wonder if they'll get new power weapons or updated versions of the original power weapons.
This looks so damn exciting a serious Action fantasy movie.
This Rita Repulsa has killed rangers, she will get her hands dirty instead of complaining on the sidelines, a functional suit to fight in that seems similar to Scorpina, she can create rock monsters so new henchmen, and she's a Dark Lord a pure evil Villain much like Blackheart, Darth Vader, etc.
Also looks like Goldar will be a formidable villain not a comedic villain he was in the original mmpr movie so great.
Also great we get to see their transformations, Practical armor suits with mostly same style helmets mix of old and new, actual flawed rangers so character development likely, also the challenge of remaining normal tougher since they have become superhumans powers without the armor suits.
It's very laughable people complaining about changes including Rita's costume.
The whole point of reboots is do something different not be a rehash of what has already been used or done which is extremely unoriginal, uncreative, and very boring.
