That fanon is interesting, but it still doesn't add up unfortunately because if the movie were to take place after the 4-part Ninja Quest, then why in the movie would the Rangers still yell out, "Pterodactyl!"; "Triceratops!"; "Tyrannosaurus!" etc. when their new morphing calls were, "White Ranger Power!"; "Black Ranger Power!" "Yellow Ranger Power!" etc. after that 4-episode arc.
ETA: It is interesting though that the Sega Genesis game based on the movie connected the TV show to the film's storyline by having Adam, Aisha, and Rocky reflect back on the time when they became Rangers. It began with an introduction of Lord Zedd invading the moon palace, Tommy's loss of the Green Ranger powers, and then him becoming the White Ranger.

I only saw the Turbo movie twice (one in theaters and the second time on TV) and I don't remember much about it. When I rewatched James Rolfe's review of PR, I forgot that there was a kid who becomes the blue ranger and his body grows up whenever he morphs for some odd reason.
