And of course the final thing that ruins the base: a detonator that triggers on pressing a button instead of any fancy timers.

So yay, competency.

Time for Power Rangers in Low Earth Orbit! I'm on my way out the door for work, and that means I'm gonna miss the Psycho Rangers arc, which makes me very sad.

Don't use your powers for personal gain... BUT I'm allowed to influence how NASA designs their shuttles in case I need to lean on them to use it.

Note: If you have a shoestring budget, don't leave Earth - the space CGI is sooo soo bad.

Was that a NASADA space station, or did they just so happen to have a perfect docking station for that particular space shuttle shape?

Basically, Zordon gave NASADA the specs for "their" shuttle, knowing Rangers fleeing Earth would need it to turn the Space Rangers ship into a Zord. Zordon doesn't gently caress around. E: christ, the Space uniforms would be visually perfect without those squares on the chest.

Ok, that's what, 4 or 5 different back-up plans Zordon had in case poo poo went horribly wrong and the rangers lost their power yet again? That's honestly impressive. Agreed on the space uniforms.

Whatever else you say about Zordon, you can't say he wasn't prepared.

Zedd posted:Which turned out to be a videogame themed show, so they went fuckit and did their space story on a shoestrong budget anyway. eh megaranger isn't really a video game themed show, it's about modern technology in general(well modern by mid 90s japan standards) buuuuuut i can sorta see people getting that misconception from the first episode

Zordon puts on a brave face, but he's a dude with major paranoia issues. There's always something worse out there, and you better have a plan to cut and run. And Ashley is seconds into wanting to go where no human has ever gone.

You know, considering all the poo poo Bulk and Skull has seen and gotten up to, I'm surprised they fainted from spotting a UFO.

Before she became a nurse at Sacred Heart, Laverne operated a food joint for Power Rangers. Also, Andros is a Jedi. Because.

Oh, and some trivia about the actor who played Professor Phenomenous: whenever he got sick of working, he'd play up the tired-old-man act to get sent home, then walk out, light a cigar, and drive away calling the on set director a putz.

Brother Entropy posted:eh megaranger isn't really a video game themed show, it's about modern technology in general(well modern by mid 90s japan standards) To be fair there was a little bit of a space element in Megaranger (such as all their mecha being based on space craft) but aside from occasionally fighting in orbit and going to the moon once they never actually left Earth.
