So many reboots these days...I think George Lucas said it best: in Hollywood, it's like really high stakes gambling. You're giving someone a hundred mil to make a movie, you want to be sure that the investment is going to turn a profit. Right now Hollywood is throwing money towards reboots because apparently everyone in the country is eating up nostalgia like it's going out of style, even though the style literally did years ago. I don't really understand why they're still doing it, making a modern reboot of an IP that was popular before 2000 doesn't guarantee profit at the box office (Ghostbusters).
As for the movie itself, I'm not really bothered by any of it (granted I stopped watching Power Rangers when I was 8 or so, probably why I don't remember much about how they're "supposed to be"), except for the fact that it feels like what weapon said: pandering. It could have been a totally new movie but calling it power rangers will get more people to see it.
