I read a few days ago about the Power Rangers being added to the parade at Disney/MGM studios. I'm not a big fan but my 5 year old is. Does anyone know if the rangers can be found in the park for pictures and autographs. Unfortunately all my son wants to buy at the Disney Store now are Power Ranger toys. What's a Disney father to do?

They are in the parade right now and will be available for meet and greets some time at the beginning of next month. I can find where I read this from if you really want but trust me, this has been a big issue with a lot of people.

I think that the orinigal series of the show was great. But then once they started to change all the cast and change the zords etc etc it went completely down hill. I did happen to see an episode from one of the new seires a couple of months back and noticed that alot of the show is now cgi.
But I still would not like to see them in the parks, they just don't feel Disney.

I dare you to watch the originals now thats your grown up.. I have and cannot believe how much different the show is from an older perspective....
But it sells crap... thus it will stay on the air in version 13 comming next fall...
If only children could be weand and watch something less action filled and yetr still have a good moral....

NO!!! Taking the Power Rangers under Disney's wing was the absolute worst idea Eisner has ever had, BAR NONE! I was volunteering at my church's summer day camp in July and August and there was this one kid who brought his stupid Power Rangers toys to the place every day in the same stupid Power Rangers lunchbox! Not only that, but on a daily basis, the kids were taking the action figures and pretending to kill each other with them!!! I finally took the stuff away (too much protest, I might add) after one of them actually got a skin-puncturing wound from this game. The doofus (or his mother) realized he should stop taking the toys after I consficated them one day after just seeing them. :brick: :brick: :brick:

I'm not a Power Rangers fan but I don't really care that they are in the parks. It's kind of how I feel about Star Wars. If other people like it, I can overlook it.

Actually Power Rangers are still very popular. There have been like 5 seasons or something like that. It's one of the hot Saturday morning shows.

i never would have guessed that. i guess you can tell my tv doesnt come on saturday mornings. to busy.
Terrible idea, IMHO. Power Rangers are definitely NOT "Quality Family Entertainment".

Yeah, you may be right. I still have the original Power Rangers movie though. I pulled that out about a year ago and watched it. It didnt fail to entertain.

Being over ....a...40...
I've raised two sons through different iterations of Power Rangers. I think it is light fun, with clear good vs. evil, silly fighting, no blood or death and robots and monsters that keep the younger kids interest. Likewise, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (although they should now be middle-age turtles
) have remained popular.I have no interest in Bear in the Big Blue house or Rolly-Poley-Oly or whatever those other new childrens characters are, but many of the little ones obviously do, so it's good to have it for them.
As was said before, many are not Star Wars nuts...so why have a Star Wars Weekend? I also don't like Soaps, but the Soap week is very popular.
These are all phases of entertainment, different age groups and different tastes.
I say as long as they stay at MGM (which is the right home for them), they should be welcome. Now if Stitch shows up....
