All posts relating to the ever-present Power Rangers franchise and all incarnations within.
Yeah, so Jason Frank wants to challenge CM Punk to a MMA match. Just digest that for a minute… and then let’s follow that up with this.
Boy, oh boy, talk about your delusions of grandeur. Seriously, man, what the fuck is wrong with you? Jesus Christ, man, why don’t you just shoot a challenge over to Bozo The Clown or something?
I guess this clip sums up my feelings on the matter.
And he SPEAKS the truth.
…and boy was it painful.
If they had made the genuine effort and cash offers to try and bring back most of the original cast so they can do an episode of Megaforce and use them in a way that would be pretty cool and noteworthy. Probably not to the little kids who care only for the colorful costumes, but as a nice nod to the older folks who have stuck around since the beginning.
Gokaiger had this cool schtick where in almost every episode, they’d bring back an old Super Sentai legend from a past series and they do some cool shit or something. Honestly, that’s something they could do with Megaforce. That Super Mega Battle thing at the end isn’t going to mean much if they only have a few random faces and everyone else is in the background.
I don’t know. Maybe I put more thought into this than Saban did.
(2026 Update: Originally a 2013 Dailymotion upload that was posted onto Youtube a year later, my playthrough of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie with running commentary. This was in response to a video review of the game from which the brief snippet between new intro and title card is taken from. Nothing against the dude, just a difference of opinion.)
I’ve sat through a Linkara video for the first time in ages… technically not a Linkara video since he was accompanied by someone called Obscurus Lupa or something… one of those TGWTG personalities I never heard of. Anyway, they did a riff of sorts on the timeless Christmas special, Alpha’s Magical Christmas. Yes, they’re talking about a Christmas video in the tail end of March… which actually doesn’t bother me all that much. Hell, if you can have Halloween in July, why not Christmas in March? Who cares about Easter anyway?
Okay, so an explanation is in order…
This was originally posted last year as three separate blog entries. The original intention behind the 30-Day Challenge (that I had discovered on that Henshin Grid blog thing) is that it’s a list of thirty questions based on Power Rangers thar you’re supposed to answer one per day – hence the name, “30-Day Challenge”. The original plan last year was to compress it so that I’d put out six questions per day – the idea being that I’d get all thirty questions out in five days as part of a special theme week.
Unfortunately, tragedy hit close to home in the middle of the week and plans will go awry. So the end result is three blog posts spread out over a month.
Now because I’m trying to compile as much crap together as possible for the Master Document page currently in progress, I’ve manage to track down all three posts and compiled them under one handy dandy cheat sheet. So all thirty questions to this “challenge” can be found here, with some elaboration and a couple minor edits here and there.
So yeah… just remember that this was written in 2012.

Yeah, this has bad idea all over it. All of a sudden, I’m happy we got Ninja Storm instead.
The Mighty Morphin Power Rangers’ version of a Christmas special is Alpha 5 kidnapping a bunch of kids from all over the world to sing Christmas carols… badly.
The Power Rangers Samurai version of a Christmas special is a clipshow of past episodes…
I never thought I say this, but Alpha’s Magical Christmas turned out to be the better special.
