Sailor Moon Abridged By Those Good Folks

Like most people my age, I’m a huge fan of the Dragonball Z Abridged series by TeamFourStar. It’s a classic internet series, made with clear love and just funny as hell! Those good folks at TFS went all the way through the Cell Saga before burning out on the whole project, and they went out with a damn good bang! Some Buu Saga shorts exist, and they’re fun too!

Anyway, all of this is to build up to say I randomly found the other day that they’d started doing some kind of Sailor Moon abridged series as well! It’s shorter, snappier and is that same level of humor.

So yeah, watch and enjoy. Nothing too crazy. Just those very talented anime abridged folks at TeamFourStar have started doing Sailor Moon for some reason. It’s not a full episode by episode series, so it’s really abridged, and that’s fine by me, because entertainment is entertainment!

And stay tuned for additional parts they seem poised to put out in the near future, I hope!

6 Other 90s Kids Show That Deserve a Movie Adaptation

There’s going to be a Power Rangers movie, you guys! Mighty Morphin’ Power Rangers was the show of shows when I was a kid in the 90s! I watched it every day after school. I still consider the Green Ranger one of the greatest heroes of all time. And I have nothing but fond memories of Zordon, the Black Ranger, Lord Zedd and all the rest of those multi-colored knuckleheads. I don’t know if this movie is going to be any good, but my fuzzy memories will never die.

I recall the costumes being plainer

This Power Rangers movie has also got me thinking: have we finally moved on to adapting 90s kids’ shows into live action, realistic movies? Are the 80s already tapped out? We’ve had movies for the Transformers, G.I. Joe, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Jem, and I know a new He-Man movie is in the works. The 80s have given us many good to blah movie franchises, but their well of quality kids’ shows is not infinite. Is it time to move on to the 90s?

Good thing I watched kids’ shows back then too, and I’ve got some solid suggestions for Hollywood!
