The short film POWER/RANGERS that hit the web a few days ago is still a hot topic. For the most part people seem to be praising the gritty interpretation of the Power Rangers while some people feel it was too violent. Jason David Frank who’s best known for playing the Green/White Ranger on the show mentioned in a Facebook video that he feels the portrayal is too violent for a show that has an audience mostly made up of kids.
Amy Jo Johnson, the original Pink Ranger, took to her Facebook page and had nothing but praise for the film saying:
“Okay… so you’ve ALL probably seen this already. BUT just wanted to share. Personally I think it’s kind of awesome. BUT don’t tell Saban that!! I might get sued. [wink emoticon] And it’s clearly NOT for KIDS!!”
Former Black Ranger Walter Jones also seemed to be a fan of the film saying on his Facebook page:
“I wont be posting the video of the Power Rangers deboot video because I still have fans that are kids,” Jones wrote. “I will say… I thought it was very well done and entertaining. I am looking foward to other interpretations of this amazing show. I am blessed to have had the pleasure of helping to create here in the states! Its Morphing Time!!”
