Because if you are going to make a comparison have the common decency to know what the fuck you are talking about. Otherwise you prove yourself to be a useless twit and I don't respect people who are useless twits and people I don't respect get treated like the garbage they are.

Correction what works in one country may not work in another country. Time Force was pretty much a copy and paste with modifications and it worked in the USA.

That was meant as a joke. Someone's quite defensive.

There are absolutes involved.

Did I say drag it out into a Masters of the Universe PSA? No I did not. Subtlety is a writer's greatest asset. I know that. But all characters that are worth anything have faults. Major faults. Like Romeo, Juliet, Antigone, Tony Stark (that would be another one of those joke things, yet it's oddly fitting). If the hero is everyone's goody two-shoes and doesn't grow or change as the story progresses, then why should I care about them? Wait, hold up. Did I honestly just compare Power Rangers to William Shakespear? Man, I am losing it.

And, as a closing remark, if I wasn't allowed to make stupid mistakes and learn from them, I would no longer be the noob. Then, I'd have to change my screenname.

And that, Vern, is why you should trade me Park Place for Water Works. Know 'wut I mean...?

No matter how subtle it still have a moral of the day plot and they have no value other than trying to force feed someone elses morals down your throat. When someone tries to force their morals upon another nothing they do has any value whatsoever except their death.

So your idea of major faults is suicidal morons, the product of incest, and a man so weak willed he relies upon alcohol to get through life and is a traitor to his own kind. They are not heroes to be looked up to they are people to be ridiculed, mutilated, tortured, and killed.

Are you still talking? Here, watch, I'll dissect everything you say (this'll be fun! ):

And I don't respect anyone who resorts to foul language and childish name-calling to make whatever point they think they have. Also, because I'm not the one who made the comparison, if there is a point buried somewhere in that confused mess of a rant it is of no consequence to me.

And since you're so keen on freedom of speech, here's another American ideal for you: Use a flyswatter where a flyswatter is an appropriate weapon. Not a sledgehammer.

You're the one freaking out over three word sentences. You're acting like a jerk and I have no problem calling you out on that.

Then by your own argument that makes you a sad excuse for a Power Rangers fan (personally, I find it emmensely amusing you even bother making a distinction). If it may work, then why did you freak out on Ignis for asking for a show more akin to the sentai?

Okay, I'm going to explain this again. This time through example. So let's take an analytical view at Earthsea. Shall we?

Ged is a young blacksmith who wants to be a sorceror. Eventually, Ged manages to land a place in a school for sorcerory, makes several friends and one irritating rival. So Ged, in an act of anger and pride, casts a spell he shouldn't, inadvertantly unleashing a gibbish, a nightmarish spectre which posseses the living and feeds on their essence. Now that it's loose, the gibbish wants nothing more to do then find the all-powerful wizard who summoned him, consume him, and take his power. Ged sets out to destroy the gibbish, but in his mission he is sidetracked on a quest to mend the Amulet of Peace.

So, had Ged never conjured the gibbish, he never would've mended the amulet, and never would've ended the reign of a dictator. So Earthsea is about coming to terms with yourself, correcting your own mistakes, and doing one better than that. It's good storytelling with a good message which is still hugely entertaining. That's why Earthsea is a great piece of literature, which became an excellent movie, and Power Rangers is a crappy show designed to hawk Bandai's Sentai toys to American kids. This is what I'm talking about, not moral of the day.

You can tell the soap-opera crack is a joke because soaps don't cause physical pain (just the therapy thereafter).

And since I'm such a twit, here's an old proverb I'd like to share. It goes something like:

Never argue with a fool.
They'll drag you down to their level,
then beat you with experience.


If I'm the fool in this, I have the advantage. So thanks. Thank you very much.

Hercules murdered his own family, Beowulf can be viewed as being as much a monster as anything he fought, and Jessie James is considered by many to have been a hero. People's view as to what a hero is have always been a bit skewed. If you don't like it, take it up with a higher power.

P.S., thanks for trying to force feed me your morals.

Just because something may work doesn't mean you should do it. It may work that stabbing someone in the eye will stop them from killing you but you shouldn't do it, you should what you know will work stabbing him in the heart. If you try what may work it will more than likely fuck you over in the end. Disney & Saban both tried that and they were utter failures.

I sold my goat for $59 dollars, unless you are blind goat humping black man with amputated left arm you don't have my goat and never will get it. Besides even if I still had my goat I wouldn't sell to a freak who would let the goat hump him.

Why should I care about Earthsea? After a very brief scan of your swill analyse (by very brief what I saw as highlighted to delete it), just another Harry Potter rip off. If you like that kind of garbage watch the original not a rip off.

A fool couldn't beat me with experiene because I would crush his skull in with the sledgehammer after shooting out both kneecaps and plucking his eyes out with rusty spoon.

A fool never has the advantage, that is why they are the fool and why fools are the first to die. Besides you are not a fool you are a twit, much worse. A fool could beat you to death from his level with no eyes, no legs, and no arms.

People with that skewed view of reality also watch "Reality" TV, they don't deserve the air they get for free.

Like "God"? If you believe in that, I have some oceanside property to sell you in West Virginia. Stop depending on crutches and stand on your own two feet, if that is impossible for you then you should at least have the decency to stop being a blight on society.

And should you ever do such a thing for asinine reasoning like that, you lose the privilege.

Now, both of you drop it.

Don't know when Disney ever had it soap opera-like. I've seen every season and every episode and not of Disney's seasons were any remotely close to being a soap opera.

I never want to see a season that's close to Sentai especially since most Power Rangers producers will just produce a bad version of it and that's not Power Rangers is anyway. It should be an adaptation of Sentai, not a translation of it.

The only thing you got right was action.
I disagree that the Disney Rangers were not attractive. Alyson Kiperman, Jessica Rey, Sally Martin, Emma Lahana, Alycia Purrott, Monica May, Melanie Vellajo, Caitlin Murphy, Anna Hutchison and Rose McIver were all attractive.

I don't judge on the actors' abilities of their ability as an actor because I really don't notice it most of the time and the same goes for their accent slippage.

I agree in regards to the romance but then again it was no worse than all of the other Saban romances that wasn't Tommy and Kimberly.
