Yup, and I don't want to see that type again thats for sure.
To think there were similar concepts in Hurricanger and Gaoranger that we avoided.
Now about that Venjix
Now about that HAL idea, it's probably on the money but we have to all see something that's obvious here.
Venjix is a PR villain who was trying to bring back the Machine Empire.
Years later the new sentai imported villains are what? A Machine Empire.
I don't think that they just happen to accidently name the leader of this group the name of the Empire's last general.
