I'm curious if Ivan Ooze will turn out looking less like Ivan Ooze than Oscar Isaac as Apocalypse.

I am almost positive that this is going to be about like the quality of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles movies by Michael Bay.

I don't get why they couldn't have just stuck with an Asian (or a Hispanic from the later shows) as Rita.

Nobody is going be like "Well, I didn't have any interest in Power Rangers but then I heard Elizabeth Banks is in it and now I can't wait!"

Same reason Scarlett Johansson is the lead in Ghost in the Shell, its about foreign sales and pre-selling a movie. studios dont give a frick about audiences perceptions. its about the market perception. Max Landis also talked about this exact topic recently.


eta: to better put it into perspective, all the rangers are basically no names. Banks was just in the Hunger Games which had HUGE foreign success. They needed a name for this role for their foreign buyers.

I don't think it looks that bad. They might have her green to have some kind of connection to the Green Ranger.

The new Rita is hot, frick that old 90's ho bag.

I loved the Power Rangers as a kid but an updated version won't be a bad thing, imo.
