I forget the specifics but I believe in Dino Fury a MOTW specifically brought back Zedd’s evil side or something (he’s also apparently going to be the primary villain again in Cosmic Fury) Kind of curious what they have planned after that honestly as the latter is apparently only going to be a short miniseries that just uses Zord and by association monster/villain footage from a select few episodes of Kyuranger Also I can’t tell, is that Barbara Goodson doing Rita’s voice again?

RBX posted:Time travel? Ugh. Only blemish I can see. It's not like they havent done time or dimension travel before in PR. I'm going to assume it's going to be a minor thing aside from "Oh no Rita is going to erase the Power Rangers before they ever started!" And probably a way for them to borrow/bring in the Green Powers without having to address the may or may not have passed away Tommy (JDF ) in the present.

I feel like if Frank shot anything for this they'd have at least hinted at it in the trailer. An off screen "It's morphin' time!" at the end or something

Based on some behind the scenes stuff the new Rita is apparently a robot and the coin issue will actually be explained. Hope we finally get to hear Catherine Sutherland say Kim’s original morph call at the very least since she’s using her coin

Tommy somehow brute-forced a multimorpher so I'm figuring that recovering coins by reforging/relinking them to The Grid isn't so crazy anymore. Maybe they finally got Ninjor off his rear end again.

Adam's coin was hosed in PRiS and then unfucked in OO Jason got his coin back from Rocky and it was fine for WF Everyone's coins worked in Super Megaforce Rocky either has a dupe coin or took it back from Jason and it works fine in Ninja Steel Also everyone used their ninja coins to access their MMPR suits In conclusion, a wizard did it

Yeah even today I see a lot of "but I thought the coins were GONE FOREVER so much for history being meaningful" and I'm like, "it's been over 25 years that they've shown them slowly getting them working again, cmon." I'm not that hype for the special, everyone looks very old. But I'm glad that Billy will get a better ending than the he one got on Zeo.

Also only the Ninja coins were actually straight up destroyed (and even that seems to have been undone given that Tommy summoned the Falconzord back in Ninja Steel, though then again so did Alpha back in Alien Rangers despite said coin already being dust)

The coins being destroyed wouldn't have effected the Zords to my knowledge, indeed all of the Season 3 Zords survived that season(as did all of the ones from Zeo, as well as Dragon Zord, Titanus, Tor, and Artillatron if we extend this to the rest of the Zordon era Zords) Not destroying or otherwise properly writing off all the stuff from Zeo has basically left a giant gaping question of "why has no one ever gone and dug that stuff back up either for the original users to use again or to give to a new team"* outside of Tommy using Zeo 5 during Forever Red and later integrating it into his multi morpher *or similarly "why has no one gone and bugged Ninjor to make a new set of Ninja Power Coins"

Between the Morphin Masters , Gosei and multiple teams just straight up using tech to tap into the Morphing grid there is little reason to assume any power can't be back in some way.

Speculation, but spoilering in case folks are avoiding the trailer Looks like Robo Rita shrinks/transforms Tommy, Jason, and Kimberly to explain their absence.

I'm aware of this, but I was also a believer post-Megaforce that I no longer wanted to see JDF in the costume with the helmet off because it just looked so drat goofy to see those costumes on someone of an advanced age. I suspect I'm in for a lot of that sort of thing. Voiceover atop stuntmen in full costume is fine, of course.

Original Pink Power Ranger Amy Jo Johnson writing a new Power Rangers comic book series with Boom! Studios.quote:Debuting the series next year, Johnson collaborated with her partner and director Matt Hotson to co-write it. She recalls coming up with the idea before the pandemic hit in 2020. “I was daydreaming about it and mentioned it to my boyfriend, Matt. He said, ‘Why don’t you try to write it as a comic book?'” Johnson tells Variety. “We had all the time on our hands, so we daydreamed up this entire comic book series knowing the 30th anniversary was coming.”

AJ's also responded to people who assume they didn't pay her enough to do the special. She pointed, not unfairly, that maybe she can't fly to New Zealand for however long or just didn't want to wear spandex in her fifties. (I'm sure the pay scale wasn't great, mind.)

That’s fair, I would have loved to see her again but Kat’s good too and it’s nice they got Walter Jones, Richard Horvitz, Barbara Goodson and probably most impressively, David Yost back for this at least.

They fly you there and give you a hotel room I'm pretty sure. At least I think that's what Cardenas said when I was talking to him about his experience with Dimensions in Danger. It is true they didn't pay anybody flight expenses for super Megaforce though.

Dunno if the recent acquisitions changed the way things went but basically all the reuniin/cameos were the folks doing it on their dime aside from whatever scale they were paid for their work. As in book a plane+hotel yourself, bucko.
