It was a total cheesefest with insanely over-the-top villains and some cool kaiju monster vs Megazord fights. I look back at those times fondly, of course, but that's not to say that I'm misremebering the Power Rangers or revering them as saintly pop culture icons. The older I got, naturally, the less and less I was interested in the Power Rangers. But it was something of a phase, as it was for many other kids at the time. So yes, I was a quite the Power Rangers fan when I was a kid.

My mother, the absolute saint that she is, took me to see the theatrical movie that came out in 1995. I had this Sega Game Gear Power Rangers game. Also, the Pink Ranger was my first crush, as I'm sure it was for many other boys (and girls) my age at the time. Though, if I'm completely honest, the Green Ranger (later White Ranger) was my favorite. I believe that I dressed up as the Red Ranger one year for Halloween (I also dressed up as Wolverine and Batman other years, but that's besides the point). The reason I bring this up in relation to this movie is the fact that, yes, back in the day, I was HUGE fan of the Power Rangers. Sue me, take my geek card away, do whatever you must. Again, it's a good movie, but I've seen better. But, and this is where nostalgia gets in the way, the original movie was such a phenomenon when it came out that people who were very young the first time they watched it, place it on some comedic pedestal that it, quite frankly, doesn't deserve. None of these films were as big as Ghostbusters was in 84. That right there is FIVE movies, right off the top of my head, that are better than Ghostbusters in my opinion. The original Vacation was better, Stripes was better, Animal House was better, Caddyshack was better, A Groundhog Day was better. It's a good movie, don't get me wrong, but I never felt it was a classic. But, and I hate to burst your bubble, the original Ghostbusters doesn't hold up as well. There's this silly, subconscious idea, that women aren't funny and, therefore, an all-female Ghostbusters would just fail because the original is such a beloved classic.
That's what, in my opinion, led to the major controversy surrounding the all-female Ghostbusters. The rose-colored glasses, of course, means that you're looking at things as how you remember them and not how they were. Nostalgia is the type of thing where, through rose-colored glasses, you look back on something from your youth fondly.
