[Red Tulip Ranger]

COOOOOL! But am I the only one, who thinks it's a bit weird for the Quantum Ranger to be included in this team-up?

He wears a Red costume, and is around due to Reinforcements from the future, it is PR, we allow strange things to happen...
I'm surprised to see Aquition Red there though, I'll be surprised, yet very very happy, if Aurico really has returned for this!


Edit: With Eric, we have 10 Red Rangers for the tenth aniversairy.

I heard it would take much longer before this episode would air then people originally thought (two or three eps after RftF) and it would be sometimes during october now??

This was always an interesting decision. We do know that Amit did this on purpose since he considered Eric a Red Ranger.

It makes sense when you think about it since Time Fire was a reversed engineered version of Time Red in Timeranger. Plus the rivalery between Wes and Eric and their friendship makes it seem right. They needed a tenth Red for the team up anyway. And didnt want to use Ninja Rocky.

It's set and scheduled to be the first episode played on the ABC network after the great changearound ion a couple of weeks.

For those who have seen/read the episode, what did you think?

(For those who haven't watched it, a transcript is available here).

I think Ranger fans have always read too much into Forever Red's plot holes. The special was supposed to be a special team up and it succeeded in that regard. With a half and hour there wasnt enough time for a lot of exposition. Plus it kinda makes the episode more legendary since fans can use their imagination to feel in gaps.

Aparently, Amit intended for Jason to have gotten his powers back from the evil Red Ranger in the comics. TJ got his powers back from Lightening Cruiser just like Justin did with Mountain Blaster. Which is pretty plausible. Amit wanted to have Rocky make a cameo as Tommy's butler but the actor couldnt be found at the time. The plan was to have a multiparter but it wasn't aloud in budget.

And really we know now that the Zeo Powers didnt becomr the Turbo Powers so it probably wasnt that hard for Tommy to get them back.

I think it's just the fact that nitpicks add up after a while.

That plus it seems sometimes that the folks in charge of the actual professional production do things that we probably would get crap for if we were stereotypical loser nerds who live in their mom's basement writing fanfics.


Truth be told though I don't really care all that much about Forever Red's continuity issues or even Once a Ranger's as much as I do Super Megaforce's.


On topic you know I never really thought too much about why Jason, Tommy, and TJ had their powers back.


If I had made it I would have gone with the original idea of evil space priests trying to bring back Dark Spector, and having it where since Dark Spector is the physical embodiment of darkness, and evil it causes some weird flux in the balance of good, and evil that brings back Zordon since he's the embodiment of light, and good.


Also I would try to have other past villain groups besides just the Machine Empire like Zedd, and Rita, Space Pirates, Bansheera's demons, and mutant criminals from 3001 be represented.

Yeah the Spector Descipiles plots sounds interesting and would have made sense. Too bad the higher ups made Amit use the Beatleborgs suits instead.
