  • We look at the first ever Power Rangers movie to grace our theaters in the 90s. Although, some things don't work out as well as they would in a cheesy action show.

    one of the best roles Johnny Yong Bosch ever had! ((and of course I love his work in his anime dub works))

      My Favourite role of his will always be Vash The Stampede.
      "This World is made of... LOVE AND PEACE!!!"
      Ok.... now that makes Me want to read a Trigun/ Power Rangers Crossover....

      Probably the role that kickstarted his VA career in the first place considering that even in this movie and seasons 2 and 3, the suit footage is voice acted like with Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, Ultraman, etc where stunt actors specially trained to do martial arts while in the low visibility conditions of the helmets are in the suits instead and the people who play the civilian forms voice over them. Obviously this doesn't apply to the helmetless footage though.

    Director Bryan Spicer didn't see the actual series when he was hired. As such, he did a quick "fast-forwarding" run of the series, ensuring things would go wrong.
    When the Ranger suits were developed, the helmets were designed without visors or mouth pieces, intending on the heroes showing fear or worry. It wasn't until a little while later that they realized that they were meant to be a fearless force to be reckoned with and they remolded the helmets to include those missing pieces.
    Gabrielle Fitzpatrick, the original and final choice for Dulcea, was replaced partway by Mariska Hargitay because she needed to have a cyst removed. However, after filming her scenes, which included a training sequence, they fired her because she flew back to America to visit family for Christmas rather than remaining on-call in Australia. Gabrielle was rehired, but they were unable to re-shoot the aforementioned scenes, resulting in an oddity where the Rangers seem to stare at the monument for a while before going (Dulcea was supposed to train them to be ready for it).
    The filming for the final scene where the team is thanked turned into a disaster area when local radio shows caught wind of it and tried to turn it into a "Meet the Power Rangers" contest.
    Originally, Ivan Ooze was meant to mutate a bunch of rats for the Rangers to fight. However, the rat costumes proved to be too low budget even for the actual series, leading to the creation of the Ooze Men. However, the suits were spared and used in "The Return of the Green Ranger" three-parter.

    24:20 Not to mention the cockpit is in the head when it should be in the chest like basically every Japanese giant robot that's pilotable ever (hence why Domon Kasshu can use Shining/Exploding God Finger on the head of a Gundam without killing anyone). Even Transformers tend to have cabs, cockpits, etc. in their robot mode's chest.

    Edit: Austin St. John got busted in a FBI raid and the green ranger wanted to fight CM Punk.

    Speaking on Chrono Trigger, if they ever decide to make a new work based on it (an anime or otherwise), having Johnny Yong Bosch voice Frog will drive it all home from his bemoaning beginnings now that he’s one to embrace a lot of silly fun.

    CGI bad in this film? Surely the CGI can be better for the 2 version of the show....
    *Ninjor transform, most of the Megazord sequence, etc.*
    Oh, well surely they can improve the CGI in the next movi...
    *Power Rangers Turbo with sparkles, teleporting, and Maligore summoning*
    The recent movi....
    *Goldar as melted gold*
    I'm starting to think we should include "No CGI" in Power Rangers/ Super Sentai's 10 Commandments.

      Using it for regular fights a la the 2017 movie?

    How topical this week had been after Austin St John was arrested for COVID fraud.
    Former MMPR fans had to jump into watching Super Sentai for specific reasons. Notably the entire Neo-Saban era and the infamous "Legendary Battle", which is a clear reminder that all of the veteran actors and actresses will never ever come back for future reunions and crossovers.
