Is the first Power Rangers Movie Canon?

It's interesting to think about. Is the movie considered a part of the storyline when compared to the rest of the show? I don't know if they ever go back to most of the events that happen in the movie again. Now the Turbo movie had to be cannon. What are your thoughts?

Original movie = NO
Turbo movie = YES

The first movie was never intended to be in continuity with the series. Twentieth Century Fox owns the rights to the film. So no character created for it could carry on to the series. The second movie was fully owned by Saban Entertainment and didn't have that problem.

Every official movie is cannon, period.

Continuity is what you are asking about. If you are asking then you are clearly uninformed and need to take the time to inform yourself.

In seasons 1 and 2 of Power Rangers, they used putties as the main, lesser servants of the villains. In season 3, they are no longer used, but Tengas are instead. Why did they change minions? What happened to the putties?

Thanks to Rito, Zedd and Rita stopped using the putties. That's what I think.

They never really explained why they stopped using the putties. Most likely Rito given them the Tengas is the reason. They we're more effective. Look at how the Rangers needed to use their Ninja Powers rather then fight them unmorphed like putties.

The Rangers turned to sissies.

I wouldn't say that. In "Ninja Encounter" it seemed like the Tengas we're far more dangerous then the putties.

The second generation putties were far more dangerous than the first generation but they still fought them unassisted.

The Tengas may have been more dangerous than the putties, but that is no excuse to fight someting organic assisted when the very next season they fought machines unassisted. Punching and kicking metal hurts your body a lot more than punching a stupid bird.

They turned the Rangers into sissies to sell the ninja costumed figures.
