I'll go with TMNT. I loved the cartoon and the movies were great.

Power Rangers were awesome too, I used to watch the show religiously and I had the movie on VHS.
 
Anyways, this is really a question about how old you are right? I'm 26 and although I loved watching OG Power Rangers when I was in grade 6 (Green Ranger=> White Ranger was

That's a real tough one. But seeing how TMNT came out first and that I can't without conviction pick them, Iwill say the OG Power Rangers

This.

And TMNT has been able to withstand the test of time while Power Rangers got more and more sucky.

Even though the original TMNT cartoon was geared for the kids, the comic book was dark and bloody and geared for the adults

and now there's news that the new TMNT movie (2011) will be close to the tone of the original comic book

Of course it will continue to withstand the test of time since the original fanbase is now composed of 20- 30 yr olds


"I can say that at this point there are a lot of positive feelings about a 'Batman Begins'-style 'reboot,' which would, of necessity, include a retelling of the Turtles' origin story," Laird told MTV News of early plot discussions regarding the film. "Having said that, I would also be into an all-new story, if it was decided that that was a more desirable direction. Either way is fine with me, to be honest!"

Laird went so far as to share some specific story points that TMNT fans hold near and dear to their hearts as potential elements in the upcoming film.

"Simply telling the story of what happened in the first issue of the 'TMNT' comic book would be a pretty short movie, so I suspect other things from the Turtles' history in the comics might be brought into it," continued Laird. "I would not be unhappy to somehow see the tale of Baxter Stockman and the robotic 'mousers' folded into this movie, as well as some elements possibly setting up the TCRI connection for a possible sixth (or seventh) movie. But I think I'm getting a little ahead of myself there."

As for other characters we're likely to see in the film, the "Ninja Turtles" co-creator said the villainous Shredder would be a necessity for any TMNT origin story, and also mentioned that both intrepid reporter April O'Neil and vigilante Casey Jones came up during recent creative discussions.

Finally, Laird also offered a few more details regarding the way in which the live-action filming and computer-generated effects will blend to bring the Turtles to the screen in the upcoming film.

"The basic idea, as I understand it, is to do an all live action shoot, with actors and stuntmen in full Turtle suits," said Laird. "To add expressiveness to the Turtles' faces which would be difficult if not impossible to get with animatronics and/or puppetry, there would be 'face replacement,' with CGI Turtle faces superimposed on the live action performers' heads."

"This technology has been proven to be incredibly effective if done correctly," added Laird. "Look at the character of Davey Jones in the 'Pirates of the Caribbean' movies, with his mass of writhing tentacles… an incredible effect."
