Power Rangers - the appreciation and discussion thread

[Hero]

Still, as he appeared with no explanation or backstory it could be culturally referred to as the Mordant paradox

I remember a colouring book also making note of the cousins thing too.

Was also hoping that Skull would appear for the Christmas episode of PR:S, but alas. Sort of wondering what the deal is with Bulk's housing arrangement; whether he just rents the garage space or owns the house and just chooses to stay in there as a dojo. Beats building a den I guess . Really had to shed a tear for poor Bulk and Spike in that Christmas ep.

The said episode is a guilty pleasure of mine and I liked how it reflected on how the characters have bonded over the last 20 or so episodes, rather than a bunch of supposedly destroyed monsters brooding about their defeats. I guess the Halloween special also serves a similar purpose as a catchup of sorts.

Do you remember how the coloring book made a note of the cousin thing?

Skull appearing in the Christmas episode would have been nice. In fact, I was talking to a friend about that.

By the way, in case you don't know, MMPR:TM is set in a universe that's unrelated to the TV series.

[Hero]

I am aware that the movie was its own canon, and just as well really. I just feel that Mordant just appeared with no establishment and had to be accepted for just being there. I think nowadays, things like this show why some films have prequel novels/comics to cover up such things.

Can't remember the colouring book in great detail, but remember that's where I picked up on the cousin thing. It was all pictures and narrative text at the bottom of the pages.

Skull's appearance in the Christmas special would have really made that episode and filled an obvious gap. He could have at least had a mention. When is the next PR:S set to air? Looking forward to the new Super Samurai formula.

"The Ultimate Duel" was promoted by Nick as the season finale, with the clip shows and the team-up movie (which is set during the next season) being specials. We're very likely not getting any new episodes until Febuary, which by then the show will have become "Super Samurai"

<- What do you all think of this? I got bored tonight and animated it myself, lol. Anything I should do to improve on it, or do you think it's fine as it is? I would animate Zack, Trini, Kimberly, Billy, or Tommy if I had sprites of their Ranger forms, but I only have sprites of their Human Forms. Feel free to save and use these for whatever, if you want them for anything. I turned Jason into a mouse icon myself, haha.

[Hero]

I like that. Make the others too

===HERO

[Redmage1987]

Thanks! I managed to find sprites for Yellow, Black, Green & White Rangers. So I will be posting Trini, Zack, & both Tommy's tomorrow. I am going to have to make up a Ranger Pose for the Green Ranger since he never really had much of one in the game he was in.

I am still searching around for Pink & Blue Ranger Sprites. Hopefully I can find some.

[Allio]

Can we also discuss Super Sentai in this thread (origins of the Rangers) or would I need to make a seperate thread?

growing up with the Power Rangers, RPM is my favorite season of all.

[Hero]

I think I made a similar request many moons ago and the answer was no, since both are separate.

I'd be up for being part of a Sentai thread if there's no problem with starting one.

===HERO

[Allio]

Well, that sounds good.

I do count both series as different... especially if you compare Go-onger to RPM

[Storm Eagle]

By the way, it turns out that R.P.M. is also meant to be in its own world apart from its preceding seasons.

If what was being said about Jonathan Tzachor is true, about him counting any Disney season as part of PR continuity, then I hope something has vetoed that statement.

[Hero]

Always thought that about RPM anyway .

[Redmage1987]

I found this image today and didn't know if anyone here had seen it before. I thought it was pretty awesome though, so I figured I would share it, lol.

[sdp]

That is an awesome picture, love it.

Trini's boobs a bit big and everyone is overly muscled, but don't mind it.

[TheCanadiandrome]

Yeah totally awesome pic

This is my dream team up as a kid. Ironically I got it and it was a cheap imitation and I never watched another Power Rangers episode again. Its funny how that turned out. Nothing beats the original six as far as Power Rangers go and I admit its nostalgia talking.

What a dumb reason, you missed out on some quality episodes. Hell PR's best writer considers the TMNT/PR crossover one of his favourates.

You just don't like it because the team-up played by PR's rules and not TMNT's rules.

Time Force and RPM's groups all beat the original six both in terms of character AND acting

Helps when you're a long-term PR fan and not blinded by nostalgia.

I love that the picture above gives the yellow ranger gi-normous boobs when that was clearly not the case in the show.

And, yes, I realize the character was a boy in Zyuranger.

EDIT: sdp beat me to the punch with that comment. :p
