I hated that show and everyone else loved it. Drove me crazy. I liked xfiles instead lol.
I liked it and the xfiles too…
I’ve recently been watching the super sentai series it’s based on and it’s been a fun journey.
I was never into X Files, and it wasn’t until recently I realized why.
It’s because the show encourages people to be Mulder.
Lemme explain, the show is pure UFOlogy propaganda. You can be Scully and have a skeptical mind who wants hard proof before you’ll admit an outlandish idea is worth looking into… But then you’d be wrong, because the skeptics are just ignorant closeminded saps! Unwilling to look at the evidence that’s all around us!
Even though in real life, the believers jump to the conclusion and work backwards from there to “prove it”, whereas it’s the skeptics who actually consider the evidence and go where it leads… Which has never in the history of anything been supernatural.
90’s Television and Movies had this problem in general, the skeptic is always wrong, and the believer is always rewarded for their faith. The skeptic is always portrayed as ignorant and stuck in their own ways, while the believer is shown as open-minded, full of wonder, and just a delight to be around.
It absolutely had a negative impact on me growing up, always believing in magic, believing it only wasn’t working because I wasn’t doing it right, or because I didn’t believe hard enough… That’s gotta be it, because skeptics aren’t good people, the stories all say so!
It’s only as an adult that I realize sketpics are bitter and angry for a damn good reason, people keep believing in nonsense and making it the problem of those around them. The skeptic would love for magic to be real, but that’s never where the evidence points. Because magic isn’t real.
I thought the lesson of X files was that purple who want to see magic see magic and purple who don’t want to see magic don’t.
I never saw the appeal even as a kid.
Dana scully made me feel things.
I was the same
I didn’t hate it, but it was very much not my jam and I was also the odd one out in school being one of the only kids that wasn’t obsessed with it. I’d listen to the theme song, then change the channel to like Hey, Dude or Salute Your Shorts.
This is the part of Power Rangers that breaks verisimilitude?
Not the smoke ghost living in a glass tube or the creatures made out of actual putty or the seemingly endless supply of cities to destroy while also apparently saving them?
Hey what you got against zordon the zecko
I only now just realized the problem with trying to play a flute wearing a helmet. I will never unrealize this.
Nah look. They got a nose hole in that helmet the right size for flute tooting! You can toot your flute in that helmet!
They’re like those kids Halloween masks from the like 50s-90s with the little mouth slit that cut the shit out of you if you say so tried to talk.
It’s a magic Power Rangers helmet!
Look closely that helmet has lips
That’s why it’s magic!
Your not meant to think to hard about it
Well, presumably they’ll be able to breathe with the helmets on too
I can breathe just fine in my various helmets, but no way in hell am I playing a flute, a trumpet, or even a kazoo out of them.
Fair
Clearly a MIDI.
If you look at pictures of it, it has a few valve buttons on it, exactly like a trumpet. So, why he plays it sideways like a flute, rather than like a trumpet from the tip, I don’t know.
Just the tip flutey boy
C:
Because in the 90s, sword towards mouth is gay.
Cause Tommy was OG bad ass.
Yeah he never should have broke up with shredder
Kino heel face turn.

That’s the one thing I hate about Lemmy. It does seem to be easy to create more accounts.

Maybe we should talk about the universal joints used on the robots and how they are driven?
