I assume one of the tropes in this category apply to this.

I feel like I wanna get back into watching PR again. But I'm so conflicted on what to start & why.
Like I'm curious about Mystic Force because it looks to have a different visual & atmospheric tone than Magiranger. But I have yet to see Magiranger so does that mean I should watch it before Mystic Force or after so I'm not constantly comparing the American adaptation to the source material? Then there are shows like Lightspeed Rescue & Wild Force which I haven't seen in years & wanna refresh myself with. But I'm afraid of nostalgia making those seem better to me than they actually are/the shows not living up to my previous childhood memories of them, ya know? I know for a fact that I wanna hit up a PR series soon, I'm just not sure how I should be going about it right now. Have any of you guys had this "conundrum" before or does it just not factor in your decision-making? |

So I decided to start SPD. I'm 8 episodes in & I gotta say I really like it. Good blend of fun & serious, has a good setting & plenty of connections to previous series without letting them overtake what story they're trying to tell. Looking forward to the rest of the show.

Not any episode of Power Rangers (though I'm considering going back to watching the overall series at some point) but various clips of Robo Knight on YouTube. Why? Uh, no reason. *shiftyeyes*
And well, this: |

First Dino Charge, then Dino Thunder, and now, Jungle Fury.

A very cool interview with some of the cast.
Done as part of the MMPR Comics Kickstarter. They sadly didn't use the question I sent in, but it offered some nice insight into the cast and their characters regardless.

~DS' Movie Tour~ Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers The Movie Look, everyone else was doing it and I wanted to be popular. Jokes aside, I do feel that it's finally time to talk about the various Power Rangers movies like I said I would, starting with the very first. And man, I feel like I could babble on about how much I love this movie for ages, but in the interest of your time and patience, I'll try my best to keep it brief. Because really, this is everything that I feel a Power Rangers movie should be. Because when it comes right down to it, I think the thing that I love most about this film is its sense of fun and adventure. From the soundtrack, to the stunts, to the plot, to the effects, this is, in all ways, Power Rangers but on a much grander scale. Heck, the film starts off with our heroes skydiving; immediately setting the tone and the mood carried all throughout the movie. So much of this story is built on rule of cool I can't help but love it. The new armored up suits, the crazy martial arts stunt work, the fact that each Ranger gets a new Batman-style gadget(although Adam's' Super Hearing was cut for time), it's so much fun! The movie does a great job at feeling like a grand adventure too, what with the stakes being raised by not only including a really memorable villain in Ivan Ooze, but having the Rangers not only lose their powers, but also travel to a distant planet to get new ones while Zordon is slowly dying. This movie did alot of Firsts that would become staples later on, and also beat Kamen Rider to the punch at being an Alternate Universe movie. Its script is incredibly quotable too. The two most famous quotes of course being Adam's' "I'm a frog" and Aishia's' "Boogie with the bear." But special shout outs to "Death could really use a breath mint" "Well of course I forgot; I never knew to begin with" and... basically everything that Ivan Ooze says, haha. I mean, I ask you all, would it really be Power Rangers without cheezey puns and one-liners? Haha. This rewatch also made me finally realize that Lord Zedd's' "Excellent" at the start of the movie was a pun, because I'm slow like that. But I think the aspect of this story that goes incredibly overlooked, especially now that In Space has long since been a thing, is that this was the first time that the citizens of Angel Grove actually fought back. Well, more specifically it's the kids of Angel Grove who helps foild all of Ivan Ooze's' plots, but still, the spirit is there, and again, it helps add to escalated sense of scale that the film was so obviously gunning for. It helped that Fred was a likeable character, and I really do wonder if he did go on to be Zeo Gold in this timeline. Wouldn't that make for an awesome cameo in the future? Overall, this is a really fun watch and I think it captures the overall spirit of Power Rangers perfectly. And that's all I could really ever ask for in something like this.

I watched this movie when I was a kid and it was not only one of my rare glimpses of the og Rangers (beyond that DVD with the fan-voted “greatest moments”), but it certainly made something of an impression on me.
One thing I find awesome that’s semi-related is that someone not only abridged this movie, but made it longer (which the thing itself points out misses the point of abridging it). https://vimeo.com/104849378 |
