That... doesn't make any sense, though. At all.
What does something being a cash-grab have to do with who it's marketed at? There are plenty of other audiences that have disposable income that have been marketed at with cash-grabs throughout the world's entertainment history.
I guess I just have no idea what you're trying to get at. Could you elaborate?

He could be talking about the 'Dragon Dragon Ball, Dragon Ball Z' theme used in episodes 123-291 of the Ocean Dub, I'm not sure.

That's written by somebody else, likely so they didn't have to pay royalties, or get their own royalties.
I'm just curious because it just seems like his 'dream intro' is by Ron Wasserman, and he already did one.
I'm a big fan of The Mighty Raw's stuff, so I understand his like for it.

What's wrong with another opening by the guy? He made some of the best songs for Power Rangers, so I wouldn't complain about getting another one. An energetic opening song can be good to get an audience in the right mood.
RIDER KIIIIIIICK!
