In 1993, pop culture was introduced to a franchise that would fascinate children’s television with a fresh take on superhero stories. Produced by Saban Entertainment, “Mighty Morphin Power Rangers” quickly rose to prominence as one of the cornerstones of after-school television memories for children of the 1990s. It follows the story of five teenagers who are left with the fate of the universe in their hands after they are given powers by Zordon to defeat the villain, becoming the color-coded, spandex-wearing, band of heroes, the Power Rangers. 

July 21, 2023; a day that has already cemented itself in history for hardcore filmgoers and fans alike. It was unlike any movie-going experience ever before: a brooding group of film junkies ready for a three-hour telling of the story of the atomic bomb by acclaimed director Christopher Nolan versus a storm of sparkly pink outfits, in tribute to America’s original sweetheart, ready to view Greta Gerwig’s latest feminist concoction. The double-feature event earned itself the catchy nickname “Barbenheimer” – describing a war between fandoms over which film they would view first: “Barbie” (directed by Gerwig) or “Oppenheimer” (directed by Nolan).
