Enemies. Zorrotober 2025-Day 22 #Zorro
The fact that MMPR S3 was probably a lot of people's introduction to Kamen Rider is nuts to me. I wasn't expecting him to just SHOW UP, but considering Super Sentai and Kamen Rider were on the same program block? I'm surprised the crossover didn't happen SOONER.
Plus? The dude is cool as shit, full stop. He can control his Zord with a FLUTE. When he was a villain, they gave him DUTCH ANGLES, and when he is a Ranger? He seems to have an already steep understanding of what his capabilities are, even more than the other Rangers.
I maintain that the series level of quality had a DRASTIC uptick once Tommy became more of a series regular, even in the first season. Tommy seems like he's the only one who's a well-rounded character who has actual emotions and convictions that aren't completely melodramatized.
When he was first debuted, he was SASSY, a villain who served cunt harder than any of the others, Rita and Goldar included. Then, once he JOINED the other rangers, he maintained his demeanor as a rougher kid. His mannerisms had SPUNK. The other rangers were preppy archetypes who did martial arts.
The thing that's aged the best about MMPR? Tommy. Sure, the Green Ranger is already one of those overtly AWESOME things, right? But he's really the only one who seems to encapsulate the original job description of The Power Rangers. A teenager with attitude.
In reality? Bulk and Skull would probably not only be friends with a great deal of the TWA, but they'd probably be some of Billy's closest friends. Like those aren't bullies, those are the Barbarians from his weekly DND campaign.
Easily one of the things about MMPR that's aged the worst is Bulk and Skull and the general dynamic of what cliques they belong to vs. The Teens w/Attitude. Because sure, they're bullies, but in reality? The punks with piercings and denim battle vests wouldn't bully anyone.
Things I've learned this week:

1. Billy Porter is a wonderful choice for Emcee on paper, a terrible choice in practice.

2. Anyone who really thinks that Hank Hill would've voted for Trump needs to watch the new King of the Hill season, specifically Ep. 3.

3. American politics is still hell.

Seeing the general masses of Tik Tok react to the Christopher Nolan Odyssey trailer and realizing it's gonna be almost nothing like Epic: The Musical is so fucking funny to me.

Spider-Man and his rogues
Not to mention, what are those 2100+ people going to do? They trained specifically to do so many specialized things AT NASA. SPACE STUFF. Sure, the engineers can do other forms of engineering, and some of the fundamentals pass over. But the rest? Floundering? I'm livid.
Trump wanting to eject 2100+ workers out of the proverbial airlock into unemployment especially pisses me off amid the sea of other shit he's done to piss people off. My dad used to wanna be an aerospace engineer. My sister used to wanna work at NASA. He's dismantling their past dreams as we speak.
The fact that McFarlane hasn't put pre-orders up for the last Super Powers wave got me itching like a junkie.

Having today be the day that it was in terms of American History and still hearing fireworks go off WAY too early and way too close to my neighborhood gives me an existential headache.
I don't even think that late night editing bothers me that much. The act of being in solitude working isn't bad, but the fact that I can't see shit when I look out my window bugs the shit out of me. I don't like peering past my monitor into the void.
