Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Rewatching Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie almost 30 years later can be very nostalgic, but it also reveals some harsh truths about the first Power Rangers film. There have been only three theatrical Power Rangers movies since the inception of the franchise in 1993, with only one of them being canon to the main Power Rangers chronology.
Regardless, now that Jason was no longer on the team, Tommy was the leader of the Power Rangers. Jason David Frank’s character was front and center in the movie, with the White Ranger leading the promotional material of the movie. It is interesting to notice that Tommy’s Green Ranger form never appeared in any of the Power Rangers films. In Turbo: A Power Rangers Movie, Tommy was the Red Ranger.
6 The Power Rangers Only Morph Twice In The Movie The Rangers lose their power at the beginning of the film Close Although Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie is full of action, the Rangers only morph twice during the film – and only one of them was a traditional morphing sequence. The Rangers first transform at the beginning of the movie to fight Ivan Ooze’s foot soldiers, with Tommy leading the morphing call as the White Ranger.
5 The Different Command Center Is Hard To Ignore Zordon also looked very different Close As a theatrical movie designed to expand the Power Rangers brand, the 1995 film was expected to look different – and more expensive – than the show. While that made for a great experience that the show could never provide due to budget limitations, some differences between the film and the series were hard to ignore.
4 Ivan Ooze Proves How Incompetent Lord Zedd & Rita Repulsa Were Ivan Ooze was a menacing villain Close Ivan Ooze is one of the most iconic 1990s Power Rangers villains and arguably the most effective of them all. Although Ooze was a silly character like most Power Rangers monsters – starting from his name – he made for a surprisingly great antagonist. Ooze almost killed Zordon a few minutes into the film, and he was powerful enough to scare both Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd.
