Happy Easter the 6 Ranger that was a pretty cool video you show us can you show more of the same Power Rangers movies please keep on the good work the 6th Ranger you are awesome hope you have an awesome Easter The six Ranger⚡⚡⚡ did you see Godzilla vs King Kong it was a good movie have a good day
Great video, I learned a lot. As something additional to this information, I watched a recent interview with the movie cast and I was surprised that several of Ivan's best lines were not impromptu lines, but rather lines written in the script. Apparently Paul Freeman, to at least the time of the interview, still had little realization as to why the audience would find them funny. I can dig it up if you want.
Keith Ellison, I'm in my early 40's, so I a little older than you, and I watched Power Rangers every saturday morning. I was well into my teens(way past the age intended Saban meant Power Rangers for) but I liked it anyway. I only saw the 95 movie years after it came out. I rented it on DVD through red box 15 years ago. I though it was good. Ivan Ooze was a decent new villain to go after the Rangers, when Rita and Zedd had failed so many times. I had forgot it existed until I clicked on this video.
@@Tekkaman1994 hell yea I watched them up until mystic force started i think and then picked them back up around samurai and megaforce but havent really watched since
When Ivanoos said "The power rangers, whoo Where's my autograph book" The entire theater lost it with laughter. I feel the same way bro brings me right back to childhood! Somebody cue the Van Halen!
I remember watching the Power Rangers film on VHS Tape and loving the positive ending. Thanks for making this video, brings back a lot of memories from my childhood.
I’ll never get over the feeling I felt going to the theater with my Dad watching this. I felt like like I was jumping out of that plane with them in the beginning of the movie & I felt like I was in the jungle with them as well. So epic.
Best part of the movie is when PR say “ you know who we are?” Tommy say “ we’re the power Rangers!” And Ivan says the best line in the movie.... “ohhhhh, where’s my autograph book!” Ha the power Rangers. Cracks me up.
I did love Zach and Trini as a kid, so I was bummed they weren’t in the movie. I always dressed up as the black ranger. That said, growing up in the 90’s and early 00’s was magical!
I loved the original cast as well. It just wasn't the same when they left the show and got replaced by the other 3 actors. As a huge MMPR fan I often wonder what it would have been like had Jason, Zack and Trini made it to this film.
They left the show because saban creator of PR didn't want to pay the cast enough money while making his millions. Or was the original cast asking for more money than what they got paid for at the beginning? Either way it sucked when jason,zach and trini left
@@fannylopez6950 they just felt like they weren't getting paid enough for their parts on the show which is why they left. A big mistake on the studios part because the replacement actors didn't quite have the same charm. Also the few episodes after that put the show in limbo. You knew they were already gone by that point but it involved reusing older footage and even having stand-in doubles with their backs turned to the camera so you couldn't see their faces. I remember Jason even having his lines dubbed by someone else while morphed and it was super obvious that it wasn't his voice. Then the writers did a half-assed explanation for their absence by abruptly having them sent to a world peace conference or something to that effect. It was an awkward transition.
This movie was actually my introduction to the Power Rangers. I was so hyped when I saw it then I watched the show and had my child brain blown open when Jason, Trini, and Zack were there first and the green ranger was evil first and everything was just so cool. When my son was about 4 or 5 (he 7 now) I came home from work and found him watching it on Netflix and I actually shed a tear lol
I remember being taken to see this film the first time with my little brother and mum. It was an experience that blew my 5 year old mind at the time! I could never forget seeing it at the cinema!
I remember when I was a kid and this movie became available for rental in VHS I watched it 5 times in a row. Is still awesome how they capture the spirit of the power rangers. A really cool group of friends that you would like to be a part of.
One thing I hold this film in high regard for is the soundtrack which introduced me to Van Halen's "Dreams", which became one of my all time favorite songs eventually in part because of the way it was used in this movie, and the album this song is from, 1986's "5150" eventually became one of my all time favorite albums later on.
The movie was great and I had NO freaking idea the skydiving was green screened! They did such a good job making that look as realistic as possible, maybe on my next viewing I'll notice it now because I'll be looking out for it. Ivan Ooze looked AMAZING and I had no problem with the CGI as a kid and even re-watching as an adult, but that's obviously due to nostalgia and I know it's like that, but even then, the poor quality CGI is kinda cute, it's not ugly. But it makes me wonder, with how Ivan turned out, I wonder what the Zords would look like if they were real and not CGI.
This was great stuff in this video. It was cool learning the behind the scenes stuff. One thing I am surprised you didn’t mention, though, was how Marisha Hargitay of Law & Order: SVU was originally cast as Dulcea 😆
This was done during series 1 but after season 2. In fact one of the reasons this movie sits as its own thing is because they did an entirely different version of these powers in the following season, MMPR season 3.
I love the suits because they felt more like the armor they were trying to wear, like the spandex was trying to pull off, plus you couldn't really see the zippers which was a good thing.
Sounded like they went through normal production challenges and it all ended on a good note. That's good. When I first watched the movie when I was a little kid, I only kept re-watching the beginning non-morph action scenes as that was my favour (Action boy now! Action girl now!). I just loved Tommy and Adam as I tried to copy their moves and succeeded. I kinda wished I was a power ranger back then.
I remember watching this film as a kid and I LIKED Ivan Ooze as a villain. Got a bit upset when he ordered the parents to march to their death but, hey. I re-watched it a year ago with my oldest son and all the gags that Ooze makes had me in stitches! Even the look after Zed and Rita berate him for not killing the Rangers was brilliant. It’s the exact same look all guys give when their partners give them the “What time do you call this?!” crap. He was, and is, still one of the funniest villains in cinematic history. It was effortless. The Joker character NEEDS to make us laugh, the Alex DeLarge character makes us ASHAMED to laugh. But what Freeman did with the character was gloriously effortless. Even if those lines were in the script, he reeled them off like improv. He was like Cyrus Grisham (Con Air) but created for kids and appreciated by adults. Plus this film gave Bulk and Skull quite a fair story arc too. They didn’t use them as just comic foils. They made them secondary and willing assistants to a good cause. On par with Rita and Zed actually rooting for the Power Rangers near the end! I couldn’t watch this film every month but I’ll undeniably watch this as an annual treat. What Casablanca is to Christmas, this film can be for my Easter.
I still love this movie and I WISH Hasbro could get an agreement with Disney for the rights to the Ivan Ooze character cause I REALLY want him as a boss in Heroes Of The Grid. He's my favorite movie villain and all credit to Paul Freeman for having to wear all that makeup and prosthesis for hours and yet stealing every scene he's in. He knew what movie he was in and decided to have fun with it and you can tell by his performance. I remember as a kid this wasn't just a movie but an event. Mcdonalds toys, action figures, video games (I had the Genesis/Mega Drive version), other merch, etc. I feel bad for the parents now as an adult but as a kid I was hyped. Never got to see it in theaters ironically but once I got the VHS I watched that movie SOOO many times. I still put it on every now and again as well. The thing I don't see get nearly enough praise is the score.
Yes, I almost forgot about the happy meal toys. The rangers and zord toys were so cool! My best friend had most of them; I think I only had one of them. Wish I knew where they were! Pretty sure my friend ended up with them all because it was more convenient. He committed suicide over a decade ago, so I will never see those toys or most of pur childhood toys again, unfortunately. Just want to insert a big thank you to all Power Rangers staff and fans for making my childhood such a fun one. Jason and Kimberly are my all-time favorites!
Loved Ivan Ooze performance and I remember the Gold Ranger reference... memories from my childhood, once again thank you for making another great video @The 6th Ranger
@@amoguschad5952 Basically at the end of the Power Ranger film, Tommy Oliver is chatting with Fred Kelman and Fred says he would like to be the Gold Ranger one day. I don't remember the exact quote but I remember chatting with some fans who claim Fred Kelman should have fulfilled his dream and become the Gold Ranger.... The gold ranger later appeared in another series.
When I first saw this movie as a kid it blew my mind. I didn't think any movie would ever be as good. And you know, I watched it again a few weeks ago for a laugh - oh man, its still so entertaining and ambitious. It's really a quality film made with love and vision! Love it.
I wanted to love this as a kid but the fact the original team weren’t present just killed it Rocky,Adam and Aisha were just “there” and it killed it hardcore! TMNT 1990 stomps this as a 90’s kids movie with it’s darker tone and ACTUALLY good writing
I watched this in theaters. I remember going to McDonald’s before getting there. The sky diving! The suits were nice af! The falcon zord was my favorite. I had a crush on the lady with the whistle stick! And no wonder the last scene with the fireworks felt super authentic with the crowd. They werent all actors or cgi . It was real people enjoying themselves. ❤
i lived in buffalo new York, me and my dad walked to the theatre to see this i loved it. watched it a bunch on vhs shortly after. and i still watch it now. i love the fight choreography. something the new one is lacking. even tho the new one is missing alot i still enjoy it to but this one is fire
I always thought an armored costume looked far better then spandex. Plus as guardians of earth it just fits better that they wear this sleek looking armor that looks like it could actually protect them as opposed to what looks like a cheap Halloween costume.
I grew up WAY PAST the mighty morphin era but after I saw the forever red special I wanted to watch the MM season. Luckily it was eventually released on one of the main streaming services so I watched the entirety of the first season up to the end of rangers in space. I have no idea as a 20 year old, Why I still find power rangers are still cool. But I do, And I'm happy to nerd out with it
The only thing i didn't liked in the movie was the CGI Ninja Megazord. I still think it looks awful compared to the Super Sentai Models used in the series
I believe Season 3 was about to release on tv when they filmed the movie, along with the Alien Rangers miniseries. Karan Ashley said after she filmed the movie she went and filmed the scene of her walking in Africa and was asked to leave the set and wasnt allowed to say goodbye to anyone.
While filming the movie, they also filmed Season 2's Return of the green ranger multiparter. The rat henchmen were created for the movie but ended up being replaced by the Oozemen.
Absolutely!!! It is very obvious Tommy and Kimberly are pushed to the front... For those who were not familiar with this new cast, being the movie itself on a separate univere than the show it was like they changed EVERYTHING! And Jason, Zach and Trini were very beloved. Jason on the movie would have kicked ass!
I would loves to have seen the OG squad in a movie. Personally I would loved to have seen the Power Rangers fight Tommy as the Green Ranger for a movie.
I LOVE this movie! I just don’t understand why and how long it’s been to have a digital release for this movie. I want it in my library to just pick it up and watch it whenever, wherever.
For anyone who hasn't heard it, the story of Paul Freeman's trip to the hospital in full Ivan Ooze makeup is absolutely hilarious. He tells the story in an interview. Look it up.
Wow so great video Sixth! I really dug the whole information about the MMPR movie. The book that you got the information from sounds totally cool. I would like to see some more behind the scenes videos like this one. Maybe you can do a video on Turbo: A Power Rangers movie or a video on the behind the scenes of one of the Power Rangers series. As for some videos that I would like to see on your channel. I would like to see a video on Astronema/Karone Ecliptor Boom Studios: Grace Sterling Boom Studios: The Omega Powers Top Power Rangers team ups
I always had mixed feelings about this movie. Because in Australia when this film was being advertised they hadnt actually started airing the season 2 episodes of Zac, Trini and Jason leaving, so the movie posters basically told us they were going in season 2, we just didnt know when or how. It did kill the excitement a bit for me but I still went to the movies to see it on release and enjoyed it. To this day I often think what the film would have been like with the original cast.
Great video! This movie is unironically one of my favorite movies of all time. And learning more about what happened behind the scenes is always fun. This video is a good commercial for the Visual History book, which is now getting bumped up on my wishlist. ;)
i also heard that the actor who played Kat the next pink ranger actually auditioned for the role of Dulcea but was turned down because she was too young but was told to stay in touch as they may have something planned for her in the future of the show
@@englishatheart It's a job title not a gender role, Actor has always been defined for both genders, also pretty much every other role in media isn't separated by a gender title, you don't say Produceress do you
I was waiting on a review of the 1995 MMPR movie! I like the movie for the most part. The only thing I didn't like about it was the zords and megazords. To me too much CGI was added to the zords and they looked terrible compared to the designs of the zords on the TV series.
Agreed. If they had just used the same designs as Kakure DaiShogun and Tsubasamaru it would have been amazing. The way that Toho was doing cinematography for their Godzilla films in the mid 90s would have looked amazing with the Ninja Megazord.
I loved the aesthetic of the Rangers in this movie! So beautiful… I reviewed a few of the Super Nintendo games, including the Movie game, and they’re all really solid with exciting 90s audio video greatness!
Ive always enjoyed this movie but was never really a huge PR fan when I was younger. Started watching from season 1 recently as nostalgia has been getting me into things I passed on as a kid
Sill prefer this original 1995 version of MMPR then the 2017 ReBoot. Loved the Tv show and remember the hype of how popular it was. Then when this movie came out it was MAJOR! Still one of my favorites to this day! Have a Male MMPR Pink Ranger cosplay and the helmet is a 3D print of the version Amy Jo had in this movie. Also found out from Carla (Rita on the show) Said she and the other series villain actors were not asked to do the film because a certain number of roles had to be played by Australian actors. Barbara who voices Rita said the voice actors were not cast to do their characters and when the movie was previewed fans were very upset that Rita, Zedd and Goldar didn't sound like they normally would have so they re dubbed with the TV series actors.
I loved the movie when I was growing up, now thinking about it it kind of brought back the memory of how Zordon told them to morph way back in season one episode one " hold your morpher up to the sky calling the name of your dinosaur " which they do in this .. minus hitting the button on the side that makes the silver panels open which when I think about it I don't think they were told to do
Watched it with a friend at the theater, we accidently left his side van door open lol. I don't think I have watched the whole thing again, but I did get it on VHS recently and will watch it this summer!
It's a shame they didnt reuse the new look of zedd and goldar on the show. The cgi really needs an update, other than that the movie is a great 90's fantasy film.
I still freaking love this movie. The suits are amazing. The way of getting new powers. Everything was great. Cgi zords were a bit awkward Legit didn't know this
we as kids could connect to the power rangers expressing emotions through their over exaggerated body language. like in the show, you could tell if they were struggling or hurting, you could tell when they were shocked/surprised, or angry, or when they were trying to think, or were excited or showing gratitude, etc.
This was a great video and I would never research any of this myself so I do appreciate learning this you should make more of this kind of content as well
Just watched this the other and still had a blast! Still can’t get over how all my friends and cousins had the megazords while I only could get one or two figures of the Rangers cuz my family wasn’t as well off as my cousins and friends but I had the VHS of this movie while those suckers didn’t so booyahkasha!
You were blessed to have a toy. My mother at the time raised me and three other siblings, and I never had a Morpher or ranger doll. I was always sad seeing my cousin with his Morpher and rangers. Thank God that now as an adult, I own two Morphers and rangers in their box today. No matter how old I get, I'm always a ranger at heart. I pass down the movie and original episodes down to my nieces. They love power rangers.
@@aaronavila9019 I know I was blessed to have the toys I did but like you said it still made me sad when others like our cousins had the nice expensive toys. But to be honest I think that not having those nicer toys was better for me and you as it stoked my imagination and creativity as I resorted to making toys with my hands and scrap material, for example, when Batman was released, all I ever wanted was a screen accurate Batman mask as I absolutely hated the Halloween masks that came with the costumes where it only covered the front face held on by stretchy rope and worst was when power Rangers helmets were like that and the visor part of the helmet was just slits or holes, so since there weren’t any screen accurate helmets like we get today with the legacy line I would make my own masks and helmets with my Batman mask being fairly damn screen accurate for being made by a ten year old with some cardboard and duct tape
@@shaunbang that's awesome man. Same here. I had a really big imagination too. I built things and I was really creative. My nephew was three years old when he wanted to dress up as batman. My sister didn't have the money to buy him the store bought versions. We used his batman pj's that had the abs on the shirt and pants that looked like they had the belt and boots. Using the stretchy book covers, I cut holes for his eyes tied it on his head and the ends looked naturally like the bat tips. He won the contest for his costume when alot of the other boys had store bought suits. His stood out and everyone loved it. It's awesome what we can come up with when we are out to the test.
@@aaronavila9019 that’s amazing! Oh man idk how old you are but I remember using the stretchy book cases to make masks by cutting the bottom of one cuz it looked like the one tobey maguire wore in his wrestling match and got i. Trouble by my teachers all the time for wearing them at school lol
I was about 5 years old when this movie came out. I had all the merchandise (toys, bed sheets, drapes, and snes video games) before I remembered watching the show. I think this movie was my first memory of power rangers because I was too young to remember the first two seasons of the show even though I knew who Jason Zack and Trini was. As a black kid I always saw myself in Zack and wondered why he wasn’t in the movie, but I also enjoyed Rocky Adam and Aisha. This movie was epic and I still can enjoy it in my adult years.
I remember working at a movie theater. We were a discount theater player movies that had already been ran at first run theaters and some how we got to do a premiere of MMPR Movie. So we all got to watch it the night before when they ran the film to check it.
Hey just found your channel and with the passing of our recent hero JDF I wanted to start watching again but I noticed it’s a difference with the movie and season 3 , do you have a video on this ?
Sometimes when I think about films that are flawed but fun, that performed 'okay' but not quite 'well'...I wonder what changes could have resulted in them being that 15-30% better without overhauling the entire process. I think with the Power Rangers movie, if they had kept the original cast fully intact, kept Steve Wang as the Director(He showed quite a bit of promise with the Guyver films, particularly the sequel which plays like a more serious, bloody power rangers episode) and MAYBE gone for "Cool suitmation" over the sub-par CGI for the zords....I think that would have made the 20-30% difference to really make this something that much more enoyable and that much more of a cult classic. And heck...with all of those differences, maybe the movie would have performed well enough to warrant a sequel and actually launch a film series of Power Ranger movies that existed within its own continuity?
Like the commentary on the CGI, so many people make the mistake of comparing it in this with recent movies and I never understand why. CGI was still new, it’d be like comparing the first silent movies to a movie in color with full sound.
This was a really good film, still is. I’ve watched your channel and then went and binged watched MMPR on Netflix again. I still no all the words from episodes 😂😂
Back in the day i remember recording episodes of MMPR since i would get home from school like 10 minutes after it started and you can't skip the first 10 minutes! Anyway around the time of the movie i sent in a letter about how great the Rangers were to some Fox address that was in the credits. I actually got a pretty generic reply but 4 passes to the movie as well. Still watch this from time to time too and lets not forget the epic soundtrack either!
I went with my dad to see this movie in theater in 5th grade. He too appreciated Dulcea and thought Ivan was hysterical. Did anyone else go nuts trying to get every toy for the McDonald's movie promotion? It took me awhile to get the falcon zord. We would take weekly trips to the drive up and ask what toy they had hahaha. My mom was probably relieved once all were collected 😆
Ivan Ooze was such an artefact of his time: Nickelodeon slime, state-of-the-aging-super-fast CGI morph effects, and an alien who somehow knew a ton of cultural references. The dude stole the show though.
I wish Austin, Walter, and Thuy at least stayed to do the movie. I get why they left, so it makes me wonder why the rest stayed. I grew to like rocky, Adam, and aiesha, but having the original six would’ve been epic.
I'm quite young compared to most MMPR fans as I'm on 18 I really enjoyed watching MMPR but I'm not sure how I just remember always going to Blockbusters to rent out the movie and having a good time
Do you guys want more Behind the Scenes content? Let me know :D ⚡️

It’s the exact same look all guys give when their partners give them the “What time do you call this?!” crap. He was, and is, still one of the funniest villains in cinematic history. It was effortless. The Joker character NEEDS to make us laugh, the Alex DeLarge character makes us ASHAMED to laugh. But what Freeman did with the character was gloriously effortless. Even if those lines were in the script, he reeled them off like improv. He was like Cyrus Grisham (Con Air) but created for kids and appreciated by adults.
Plus this film gave Bulk and Skull quite a fair story arc too. They didn’t use them as just comic foils. They made them secondary and willing assistants to a good cause. On par with Rita and Zed actually rooting for the Power Rangers near the end!
I couldn’t watch this film every month but I’ll undeniably watch this as an annual treat. What Casablanca is to Christmas, this film can be for my Easter.
Him ordering the parents to commit suicide showed how much of a demented psychopath he was.
I still love this movie and I WISH Hasbro could get an agreement with Disney for the rights to the Ivan Ooze character cause I REALLY want him as a boss in Heroes Of The Grid. He's my favorite movie villain and all credit to Paul Freeman for having to wear all that makeup and prosthesis for hours and yet stealing every scene he's in. He knew what movie he was in and decided to have fun with it and you can tell by his performance.
I remember as a kid this wasn't just a movie but an event. Mcdonalds toys, action figures, video games (I had the Genesis/Mega Drive version), other merch, etc. I feel bad for the parents now as an adult but as a kid I was hyped. Never got to see it in theaters ironically but once I got the VHS I watched that movie SOOO many times. I still put it on every now and again as well. The thing I don't see get nearly enough praise is the score.
Yes, I almost forgot about the happy meal toys. The rangers and zord toys were so cool!
My best friend had most of them; I think I only had one of them. Wish I knew where they were! Pretty sure my friend ended up with them all because it was more convenient. He committed suicide over a decade ago, so I will never see those toys or most of pur childhood toys again, unfortunately.
Just want to insert a big thank you to all Power Rangers staff and fans for making my childhood such a fun one.
Jason and Kimberly are my all-time favorites!
Back in the day they had the power rangers series advertise in front of the TV guide book and also newspaper and magazines. It was pretty popular.
Loved Ivan Ooze performance and I remember the Gold Ranger reference... memories from my childhood, once again thank you for making another great video @The 6th Ranger
Glad you enjoyed it 😁⚡️
What gold ranger reference?
@@amoguschad5952 Basically at the end of the Power Ranger film, Tommy Oliver is chatting with Fred Kelman and Fred says he would like to be the Gold Ranger one day. I don't remember the exact quote but I remember chatting with some fans who claim Fred Kelman should have fulfilled his dream and become the Gold Ranger.... The gold ranger later appeared in another series.
@@Mangomesh u mean zeo
i was great wasnt i?
When I first saw this movie as a kid it blew my mind. I didn't think any movie would ever be as good.
And you know, I watched it again a few weeks ago for a laugh - oh man, its still so entertaining and ambitious. It's really a quality film made with love and vision! Love it.
I wanted to love this as a kid but the fact the original team weren’t present just killed it
Rocky,Adam and Aisha were just “there” and it killed it hardcore!
TMNT 1990 stomps this as a 90’s kids movie with it’s darker tone and ACTUALLY good writing
'90s*
The mighty Morphin power ranger movie has a lot of cheese but who doesn't love cheese 😍🧀
Exactly!! ⚡️
Lactose people
Precisely. Plus, I'd take the MMPR 1995 Movie over the 2017 Reboot.
I still remember the day my dad brought this home from work. Me and my sister abused that poor vhs lol
I watched this in theaters. I remember going to McDonald’s before getting there. The sky diving! The suits were nice af! The falcon zord was my favorite. I had a crush on the lady with the whistle stick! And no wonder the last scene with the fireworks felt super authentic with the crowd. They werent all actors or cgi . It was real people enjoying themselves. ❤
i lived in buffalo new York, me and my dad walked to the theatre to see this i loved it. watched it a bunch on vhs shortly after. and i still watch it now. i love the fight choreography. something the new one is lacking. even tho the new one is missing alot i still enjoy it to but this one is fire
This is my all time favorite movie!! I still watch it to this day. At least once a week lol
The movie was epic. Sad the original cast wasn't in it 😢
It wasn’t that epic… just that opening fight scene when they morph. The rest is trash
I always thought an armored costume looked far better then spandex. Plus as guardians of earth it just fits better that they wear this sleek looking armor that looks like it could actually protect them as opposed to what looks like a cheap Halloween costume.
I grew up WAY PAST the mighty morphin era but after I saw the forever red special I wanted to watch the MM season. Luckily it was eventually released on one of the main streaming services so I watched the entirety of the first season up to the end of rangers in space. I have no idea as a 20 year old, Why I still find power rangers are still cool. But I do, And I'm happy to nerd out with it
The only thing i didn't liked in the movie was the CGI Ninja Megazord. I still think it looks awful compared to the Super Sentai Models used in the series
I believe Season 3 was about to release on tv when they filmed the movie, along with the Alien Rangers miniseries. Karan Ashley said after she filmed the movie she went and filmed the scene of her walking in Africa and was asked to leave the set and wasnt allowed to say goodbye to anyone.
While filming the movie, they also filmed Season 2's Return of the green ranger multiparter. The rat henchmen were created for the movie but ended up being replaced by the Oozemen.
I still watch this movie amid Tommy’s death In 2022. We miss you White Ranger. Once a Ranger, Always a Ranger 😭❤️
to me i felt like the original cast should've been in the movie honestly.
Right it would have been so much better
I agree, Jason, Zack & Trini would of added a whole different feel! 😪 #RIP Trini
Absolutely!!! It is very obvious Tommy and Kimberly are pushed to the front...
For those who were not familiar with this new cast, being the movie itself on a separate univere than the show it was like they changed EVERYTHING! And Jason, Zach and Trini were very beloved.
Jason on the movie would have kicked ass!
I would loves to have seen the OG squad in a movie. Personally I would loved to have seen the Power Rangers fight Tommy as the Green Ranger for a movie.
well ya but it was not possible - because of the payment dispuits - they wanted more money and the company said no
I LOVE this movie! I just don’t understand why and how long it’s been to have a digital release for this movie. I want it in my library to just pick it up and watch it whenever, wherever.
It would've been more badass, if they used the movie suits as the metallic armor for season 3, instead of sparkling spandex.
They might have been too heavy for the show's actors or may have fallen apart and were expensive to repair or maintain. The glitter was cheap.
I'm sure the idea was pitched but it was an entirely original American production and no Sentai footage being usable would've driven up the cost.
@@ZeroX7649 The glitter was in US-made footage.
As much as the metalic armor sucked, I'm glad the movie suits weren't used.
That was the plan actually but the suits didn't hold up and were a pain to shoot with
Haven't seen the video yet, but I already know its gonna be great!
For anyone who hasn't heard it, the story of Paul Freeman's trip to the hospital in full Ivan Ooze makeup is absolutely hilarious. He tells the story in an interview. Look it up.
My favorite out of all the PR movies. Very classic and to the core, contains the heart and very essence of Power Rangers.
The show was about to start season 3 when this was released it’s another version of the ninja quest
I was thinning it was more into the 2nd to 3rd season of the show.
It was towards season 3, they filmed 5 TV episodes for season 3 while shooting the movie
it was released in part to promote the new season
This is one of my all time favorite guilty pleasure movies
Wow so great video Sixth! I really dug the whole information about the MMPR movie. The book that you got the information from sounds totally cool. I would like to see some more behind the scenes videos like this one. Maybe you can do a video on Turbo: A Power Rangers movie or a video on the behind the scenes of one of the Power Rangers series.
As for some videos that I would like to see on your channel. I would like to see a video on
Astronema/Karone

Boom Studios: Grace Sterling
Boom Studios: The Omega Powers
Top Power Rangers team ups
I always had mixed feelings about this movie. Because in Australia when this film was being advertised they hadnt actually started airing the season 2 episodes of Zac, Trini and Jason leaving, so the movie posters basically told us they were going in season 2, we just didnt know when or how. It did kill the excitement a bit for me but I still went to the movies to see it on release and enjoyed it. To this day I often think what the film would have been like with the original cast.
Great video! This movie is unironically one of my favorite movies of all time. And learning more about what happened behind the scenes is always fun.
This video is a good commercial for the Visual History book, which is now getting bumped up on my wishlist. ;)
i also heard that the actor who played Kat the next pink ranger actually auditioned for the role of Dulcea but was turned down because she was too young but was told to stay in touch as they may have something planned for her in the future of the show
The Dulcea in the movie was for the dads. No offense to Catherine Sutherland but Dulcea is a WOMAN and she was still rather girly.
@@iKETOURAGE my dad fully appreciated the inclusion of Dulcea
Actress* Men and women are different and we should embrace these differences instead of trying to erase them.
@@englishatheart It's a job title not a gender role, Actor has always been defined for both genders, also pretty much every other role in media isn't separated by a gender title, you don't say Produceress do you
I was waiting on a review of the 1995 MMPR movie! I like the movie for the most part.
The only thing I didn't like about it was the zords and megazords. To me too much CGI was added to the zords and they looked terrible compared to the designs of the zords on the TV series.
Yes totally agree the CGI Zords were awful!
Agreed. If they had just used the same designs as Kakure DaiShogun and Tsubasamaru it would have been amazing. The way that Toho was doing cinematography for their Godzilla films in the mid 90s would have looked amazing with the Ninja Megazord.
This movie was a great part of my childhood
one of the best movies i have ever seen and brings back so much nostalgia.
I loved the aesthetic of the Rangers in this movie! So beautiful… I reviewed a few of the Super Nintendo games, including the Movie game, and they’re all really solid with exciting 90s audio video greatness!
Me too. I actually prefer the 1995 MMPR Movie over the 2017 PR Movie
Watching the crowd at the end is the scariest part during COVID 😱
This whole movie is a huge nostalgia trip. As a kid the opening scene of this movie with them skyding was the best thing ever
Ivan Ooze's best line is
*sniff *sniff It's that odious stench, smells like.......Teeeeenagers..........
Ive always enjoyed this movie but was never really a huge PR fan when I was younger. Started watching from season 1 recently as nostalgia has been getting me into things I passed on as a kid
Sill prefer this original 1995 version of MMPR then the 2017 ReBoot. Loved the Tv show and remember the hype of how popular it was. Then when this movie came out it was MAJOR! Still one of my favorites to this day! Have a Male MMPR Pink Ranger cosplay and the helmet is a 3D print of the version Amy Jo had in this movie. Also found out from Carla (Rita on the show) Said she and the other series villain actors were not asked to do the film because a certain number of roles had to be played by Australian actors. Barbara who voices Rita said the voice actors were not cast to do their characters and when the movie was previewed fans were very upset that Rita, Zedd and Goldar didn't sound like they normally would have so they re dubbed with the TV series actors.
I loved the movie when I was growing up, now thinking about it it kind of brought back the memory of how Zordon told them to morph way back in season one episode one " hold your morpher up to the sky calling the name of your dinosaur " which they do in this .. minus hitting the button on the side that makes the silver panels open which when I think about it I don't think they were told to do
I will never ever forget the sky diving scene.
Feels like a fever dream but damn that was and is still so awesome haha
Watched it with a friend at the theater, we accidently left his side van door open lol. I don't think I have watched the whole thing again, but I did get it on VHS recently and will watch it this summer!
Love this movie... Still own it and watch all the time
It's a shame they didnt reuse the new look of zedd and goldar on the show. The cgi really needs an update, other than that the movie is a great 90's fantasy film.
Did Pretty Well but surprised nothing about Kat actress and Dulcea (Gabrielle)
Best line from the movie, Tommy - "Eightball corner pocket"
I still freaking love this movie. The suits are amazing. The way of getting new powers. Everything was great.
Cgi zords were a bit awkward
Legit didn't know this
This FILM was my first ever glimpse of Power Rangers.. I would have never known until the internet but this one is such a wild ride.
Absolutely loved this movie growing up as a kid!
we as kids could connect to the power rangers expressing emotions through their over exaggerated body language. like in the show, you could tell if they were struggling or hurting, you could tell when they were shocked/surprised, or angry, or when they were trying to think, or were excited or showing gratitude, etc.
Power Rangers taught children the power of body language! LOL XD
This was a great video and I would never research any of this myself so I do appreciate learning this you should make more of this kind of content as well
Thank you! Will do! 😁⚡️
I've seen this film on dvd back in 2007 when I was 5 yrs old man. Good memories.
Just watched this the other and still had a blast! Still can’t get over how all my friends and cousins had the megazords while I only could get one or two figures of the Rangers cuz my family wasn’t as well off as my cousins and friends but I had the VHS of this movie while those suckers didn’t so booyahkasha!
You were blessed to have a toy. My mother at the time raised me and three other siblings, and I never had a Morpher or ranger doll. I was always sad seeing my cousin with his Morpher and rangers. Thank God that now as an adult, I own two Morphers and rangers in their box today. No matter how old I get, I'm always a ranger at heart. I pass down the movie and original episodes down to my nieces. They love power rangers.
@@aaronavila9019 I know I was blessed to have the toys I did but like you said it still made me sad when others like our cousins had the nice expensive toys. But to be honest I think that not having those nicer toys was better for me and you as it stoked my imagination and creativity as I resorted to making toys with my hands and scrap material, for example, when Batman was released, all I ever wanted was a screen accurate Batman mask as I absolutely hated the Halloween masks that came with the costumes where it only covered the front face held on by stretchy rope and worst was when power Rangers helmets were like that and the visor part of the helmet was just slits or holes, so since there weren’t any screen accurate helmets like we get today with the legacy line I would make my own masks and helmets with my Batman mask being fairly damn screen accurate for being made by a ten year old with some cardboard and duct tape
@@shaunbang that's awesome man. Same here. I had a really big imagination too. I built things and I was really creative. My nephew was three years old when he wanted to dress up as batman. My sister didn't have the money to buy him the store bought versions. We used his batman pj's that had the abs on the shirt and pants that looked like they had the belt and boots. Using the stretchy book covers, I cut holes for his eyes tied it on his head and the ends looked naturally like the bat tips. He won the contest for his costume when alot of the other boys had store bought suits. His stood out and everyone loved it. It's awesome what we can come up with when we are out to the test.
@@aaronavila9019 that’s amazing! Oh man idk how old you are but I remember using the stretchy book cases to make masks by cutting the bottom of one cuz it looked like the one tobey maguire wore in his wrestling match and got i. Trouble by my teachers all the time for wearing them at school lol
@@shaunbang lol. Oh dang that's dope!! 😆 We're probably around the same age. I'm 30.
I want lighting collection figures of this movie
Me too. And hot toys would be nice as well.
I was about 5 years old when this movie came out. I had all the merchandise (toys, bed sheets, drapes, and snes video games) before I remembered watching the show. I think this movie was my first memory of power rangers because I was too young to remember the first two seasons of the show even though I knew who Jason Zack and Trini was. As a black kid I always saw myself in Zack and wondered why he wasn’t in the movie, but I also enjoyed Rocky Adam and Aisha. This movie was epic and I still can enjoy it in my adult years.
I remember working at a movie theater. We were a discount theater player movies that had already been ran at first run theaters and some how we got to do a premiere of MMPR Movie. So we all got to watch it the night before when they ran the film to check it.
Hey just found your channel and with the passing of our recent hero JDF I wanted to start watching again but I noticed it’s a difference with the movie and season 3 , do you have a video on this ?
5:33 😍
the best movie of the year I was born 🎥
This movie was so awesome as a kid I couldn't tell u how many time i rewatch this movie
Sometimes when I think about films that are flawed but fun, that performed 'okay' but not quite 'well'...I wonder what changes could have resulted in them being that 15-30% better without overhauling the entire process.
I think with the Power Rangers movie, if they had kept the original cast fully intact, kept Steve Wang as the Director(He showed quite a bit of promise with the Guyver films, particularly the sequel which plays like a more serious, bloody power rangers episode) and MAYBE gone for "Cool suitmation" over the sub-par CGI for the zords....I think that would have made the 20-30% difference to really make this something that much more enoyable and that much more of a cult classic.
And heck...with all of those differences, maybe the movie would have performed well enough to warrant a sequel and actually launch a film series of Power Ranger movies that existed within its own continuity?
I still watch this movie, 26 years later. And it still gives me the fizz every single time.
The fizz?
@@DW3010 the feel goods
Like the commentary on the CGI, so many people make the mistake of comparing it in this with recent movies and I never understand why. CGI was still new, it’d be like comparing the first silent movies to a movie in color with full sound.
This was a really good film, still is. I’ve watched your channel and then went and binged watched MMPR on Netflix again. I still no all the words from episodes 😂😂
Weird that RUclips recommended this video. I literally just watched this today on HBO Max.
Right!! Dude, same! My little nephews LOVED IT.
Back in the day i remember recording episodes of MMPR since i would get home from school like 10 minutes after it started and you can't skip the first 10 minutes! Anyway around the time of the movie i sent in a letter about how great the Rangers were to some Fox address that was in the credits. I actually got a pretty generic reply but 4 passes to the movie as well. Still watch this from time to time too and lets not forget the epic soundtrack either!
You should definitely do more behind the scenes videos. This was awesome!
I went with my dad to see this movie in theater in 5th grade. He too appreciated Dulcea and thought Ivan was hysterical. Did anyone else go nuts trying to get every toy for the McDonald's movie promotion? It took me awhile to get the falcon zord. We would take weekly trips to the drive up and ask what toy they had hahaha. My mom was probably relieved once all were collected 😆
Ivan Ooze was such an artefact of his time: Nickelodeon slime, state-of-the-aging-super-fast CGI morph effects, and an alien who somehow knew a ton of cultural references.
The dude stole the show though.
Thank you again for this awesome video - I remember how hyped i was about this movie. I watched it multiple times :D
Still love this movie. I wished it did have Jason, Zack and Trini (R.I.P.) though.
Thanks for the information have a blessed day and life doing what you love and thanks for all you do for us
Saw it in the movies and still watch this movie today. I even introduce Mighty Morphin Power Rangers to my kids.
I wish Austin, Walter, and Thuy at least stayed to do the movie. I get why they left, so it makes me wonder why the rest stayed. I grew to like rocky, Adam, and aiesha, but having the original six would’ve been epic.
I can see your point. I honestly love BOTH Jason and Rocky equally. Same for Trini and Aisha. Same for Zack and Adam.
Man, so the end of the movie was an actual celebration. love it.
Yes.... The greatest movie of our time...
I'm 28 and rewatched this movie last night. I still like it
Loved this movie and the turbo movie but preferred this one by far good video the 6th ranger
Wow! I remember my dad taking me to see this movie but I dont remember it at all! Lol
I'm quite young compared to most MMPR fans as I'm on 18
I really enjoyed watching MMPR but I'm not sure how
I just remember always going to Blockbusters to rent out the movie and having a good time
Hey I too am a 2000s kid, and I recently watched the 1995 Movie and really liked it. And the OG MMPR Show is in my top 4 favourite PRs Series.
