Power Rangers "What If..." thoughts...
I decided to start this thread simply for fun and hopefully people will contribute their own thoughts and ideas. Here's one though to get things started...
As I watch the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers seasons on Netflix streaming I think to myself about some 'What If..' scenarios. As we all know, by season 2 we're introduced to the Dairanger zords, Lord Zedd as the new baddie, and Tommy becoming the White Ranger. However, we also see Jason, Zack, and Trini replaced by Rocky, Adam, and Aisha due to actors playing them wanting to get paid better than they were and quit midseason. I just have to wonder how would the show have gone had Austin St. John (Jason), Walter Jones (Zack), and Thuy Trang (Trini) stayed on. Would things have been any different? Would Jason still be leader of the Power Rangers over Tommy? Would the rivalry between Jason and Goldar have still existed and made use of as it was a number of times in season one? How different would the first big screen movie have been? (ex: Zack instead of Adam in the classic 'I'm a frog' scene) What do you all think? Also, do you have any "What If..." ideas of your own to contribute? Feel free as discussion is open! |

I think Jason Geiger (Austin St John) leaving would have happened anyways. He went by Austin because he was upset that the show had Jason David Frank and Jason Narvy as listed starring roles and that he wouldn't be the only "Jason" in the credits (per Jason David Frank). We also know per JDF that Geiger didn't like the "it's Morphin time" belonging to anyone but him. With JDF's rise in popularity, I assume Geiger would have demanded he be paid the most and get the most screen time for being the Red Ranger.
We also know he only came back in Zeo for money and a minor role in the movie. He said it was to take care of his sick mother but with all the stories about how dramatic and "in the spotlight" he was, one can only doubt the validity of his claims. I think for Power Rangers to be where it's at today, those 3 had to leave. |

I wonder how Walter Jones and Thuy Trang were on the set now after hearing about Austin (Jason). Given they all seemed to jump ship at the same time and stuff. When I look back at the MMPR series, when comparing Jason, Zack, and Trini to Rocky, Adam, and Aisha, I can't really recall Rocky or Aisha doing much during their time as Mighty Morphin Rangers before Zeo happened (of course by then Aisha was gone). Adam however got to become the black Mighty Morphin Ranger twice more after losing his powers (once in In Space and again in Operation Overdrive) In all honesty I wonder if maybe the cast changing out each season thing should have started in season 2 when Dairanger started to become what they used stuff from... |
I know it isn't a what if, but since we're on the topic, anyone else feel really downtrodden when they learnt the reality of Power Rangers? Although I may not like the show that much now, Jason and the gang were my childhood and between all the bullying, inflated egos and Saban being Saban I almost feel morally obliged to go back in time and boycott it. And I know this stuff permeates through all of entertainment, but these kids were no one and this was just a kids show, so it somehow feels even worse.
If anything, I'm glad they were replaced, because I don't think they deserved to be a part of what would grow into a phenomenon. |
i redo whole green with evil saga and day of dumpster
tommy brother as green ranger tommy as red trex ranger and put back storiies too |
It would be kinda cool to make Tommy Jason's brother, and Jason is the handsome, intelligent one that their parents always loved so of course he is the Red Ranger while Tommy continues to be a no one, barely qualifying for martial arts tournaments, that his brother always wins. Then Rita turns around and offers him his own powercoin and the promise that with it, he can be the top brother for once...

I'm honestly surprised at how many times Power Rangers was almost cancelled and yet somehow keeps itself from ending. Quote:

When it comes to how Austin St John was behind the scenes, I find it difficult to take anything JDF says as truth any more. He can call him dramatic, badmouth him and say he always wanted to be in the spotlight as much as he wants, but that's a bit rich coming from the guy who thinks his ranger is popular enough to warrant a solo movie...
