And they change the smart guy into the black guy because a black guy having average human intelligence is not politically correct. As if skin color had anything to do with IQ. That's what bugs me. They already had a Chinese girl with a clearly Asian family named. I never knew a Mexican who's last name was Lang. That's what annoys me.

And since this is a film adaptations board, I think I can make a common complaint that people have about film adaptations, Power Rangers or not.

In terms of marketing, the two are vastly different, especially considering Super Sentai's been around sense the 60's and Saban made Power Rangers in the 90's.
