Power Rangers Survey 6: Favorite Sixth Ranger.

Tommy bitches!
As I have said, he left a big impression on me by being evil at first. I honestly cannot see a Green Ranger and not understand why it isn't a big deal. He was the only original Ranger to become giant (Twice in fact if you count the last episode of Zeo), and he had a f*cking Dragonzord! Normally I wouldn't think too much of a dragon, but a show can often make something more cool by adding limitations. Here, we had giant robot dinosaurs, those are kickass! So how do you do one better? A dragon, bitch! Also he had a cool flute.

However, since I am trying to branch out from MMPR with my answers, my second choice would be The Blue Senturian.

Technically the first Sixth Ranger I saw aside from Tommy, the Blue Senturian was notable for me mostly for filling the Sixth Ranger slot, but also because he was clearly a policeman, and he helped my favorite superheroes fight monsters. That is what all policemen should do. Fight monsters. That is how you will regain the respect of the public.

He also uses his stoplights for combat, which brings me to the Wild Mass Guess that a prototype Senturian was used by Finster to create that Turtle thing with the stoplight on it's back. I just thought of that just now.

Power Rangers Survey 5: Favourite Female Ranger.


It has recently occured to me that I'm not actually that knowledgable about any seasons beyond MMPR. I feel awfully embarrassed and have decided that I will try to remedy this in the near future, but for now, I will tell you that Kim was of course my favorite (Don't worry, I'm sure there's at least one non Mighty Morphin' answer).

Kimberly, because as far as I'm concerned, she is the only Pink Ranger. However, I was originally going to go with Trini, who I always found to be more interesting (Ironic as her personality was being Kim's best friend). Why did I choose Kimberly? The answer is simple. Her Zord is a giant robotic ptereodactyl which is summoned from a volcano and is the only original Zord with the capability to fly, making it only equalled in awesome by the TyrannoZord and DragonZord, who can't fly, but certainly look cool.

Power Rangers Survey 4: Favorite Male Ranger.


Billy. Not the best Ranger in the world, and definately not the most badass, but I identified with Billy more than any of the other Rangers. Mainly because he was a geek. I was never as smart as him, but Billy was the closest thing I had to a counterpart on the show.

If I had to pic a second I would probably go to Jason, but thinking about it, I'm gonna go with Tommy because as the Green Ranger he had a subtle impact on me. In Mighty Morphin' the Rangers lineup was Red, Blue, Pink, Yellow and Black, but in the wide majority of the others Black is instead Green, and no matter how many times I see it, I will always think this is weird because I instantly think back to the Green Ranger pwning all the other Rangers. Admittedly he wasn't evil for long, but my cousin had the Green With Evil saga on VHS, so we watched it a lot. And he was a Dragon! When you're a kid dealing with giant robot dinosaurs, a giant robot dragon is the only way that could possibly be cooler.
But ultimately, Tommy just dosn't hold a place in my fandom like long running Ranger Billy.

And also, my favorite color was blue at the time.

Power Rangers Survey: 3Favorite Team


Again, I have to go with the original lineup of Mighty Morphin'. Again, it was incredibly basic, but despite this (or maybe thanks to) they are also incredibly memorable, if only because they were Power Rangers. Of course, I'm not going to yak on about how each character is interesting (That would be very difficult), but Jason, Zack, Billy, Kimberly, Trini and Tommy are beloved by thousands of PR fans for what they are, and I'm no different.

Power Rangers Servey: 2 what of your favorite season?


My favorite season of Power Rangers is and forever will be Season One. Obviously the first season I saw, there were enough episodes to make me think there were a whole bunch of seasons.

While not the best season, the original was basic and fairly simple. It had my favorite Megazord and most of all this was before Power Rangers became the multi season franchise it is today, meaning that this was the first time around and did not rely on ideas established in previous series. This is where they were set up.

Besides, it had the best theme song ever!

Power Rangers Survey 1: How did you get into PR?


My friend random_fan is well known by me for not updating his blog very much. How ironic that now that he has, I'm going to copy him? This is a Power Rangers survey, I will be posting each of my thirty responses seperately to avoid too much over use of space.

1-How did you get into PR?
I was really born into it I guess. I was born two years after the show started, so it was already established as a media phenomanon. As a young superhero and monster fanatic, the show appealed to me right away.

Oddly, I don't think we were ever shown much of any season past 1 here in Oz. I don't remember any episodes with Lord Zedd or Master Vile, just Rita and the gang. These episodes will always be known to me as the true Power Rangers, but we'll get into that more next time.

Sorry for the Wait.



I am still working on the second part of my Positively Dreadful Batman and Robin review. I apologise for not finishing it yet, but I'm not feeling all that motivated. In fact I feel that I've sort of been skimping out on this blog in general. I apologise and will try to tell you about this month's haul of comics soon enough.

Oh, and why did I use a picture of Mr. Freeze? I told you, I like the suit.
