I don't see this as whitewashing if I'm honest. Rita was originated with a Japanese actress because it was reused footage from the original show, there's no reason they need to still adhere to that with a complete reboot. The character herself isn't tied to a specific ethnicity (especially since she's not even from Earth). The only criteria should be who can play Rita well and I have faith that Elizabeth can do that. I'm excited tbh.

On the original show, the Rita on screen for season 1 at least was them using the original footage from the show that's Power Rangers is based on with a Voice Actress dubbing over her. Plus the cast has been more diversified. Kimberley is now half Indian Trini is now Latino Billy is now African American Zack is now Asian Jason is the only person that they haven't changed races for. And before we continue, I don't think you're using the term Reboot properly. The original show's still on the air technically. So we're looking at a Adaptation. (I know I'm being a bit bitchy, but I hate when people misuse the word reboot)

It's still a reboot of Mighty Morphin' specifically, irregardless of the Power Rangers TV series still being ongoing.

Rita was always my favourite character so I love that they're reviving her, I hope the costume's good for nostalgia's sake.

First official photo of the Rangers, no suit pics yet.
Spoiler: It wouldn't be Power Rangers without the rangers wearing their colors.

Oh, I expected them to take inspiration from the original costume. It looks cool in it's own right but nothing like Rita Repulsa.
People are saying it reminds them more of Scorpina, they have a point. |

I like it but they could've done better with it. It's okay to get inspiration from the original series in this case. Makes me nervous that they might make her the Green Ranger and leave Tommy out of it until a White ranger comes along.

She looks more like Poison Ivy... she needs the two horn/hair things.

There wasn't a blonde gal in the beginning. Kat replaced Kimberly shortly into Season 3.

I kind of love this theory (although I'd imagine not everyone would be on board with the idea).
http://screenrant.com/power-rangers-...sa-fan-theory/ It would be a cool way to hark back to the original MMPR series since Rita created the Green Ranger there. Last edited by Lostie!; 17-07-2016 at 03:55 PM. |
