Operation Overdrive Episodes 20 and 21: "Once A Ranger" Episode Discussion

JDF'd · 07-23-2007, 05:41 PM

The other thread is a clusterfuck. I admit it. It will be closed when the episodes start to air and this will be opened when they finish since no one likes running commentary.

Mikey? I expect a zany picture soon.

Thanks for your half-assed celebration, Power Rangers.

And no mini rangers yet either.

Second part episode commentary:

They didn't end the episode with a freeze frame jump

Adam had the best lines, "Morphinominal" and his line about being old school while all the other Rangers used their new school techniques.

The color clouds when they all lined up were awesome, but should have lasted longer before ANOTHER big fiery explosion, do they not have any patience with those things? They have one every 2 minutes!

alphs 6 voice wtf!

Flurious is a moron how can he think a boulder wall can stop stop anyone from getting through did he just come from watching 300? "well if it worked for leonidas it can work for me!"

nice morphing scene for adam way better that that of mmpr

thrax's defeat was too short it could of been longer

no need for Kamdor/Miratrix battle at the start and y r they just standing off the side of the museum after the got beat?

nice entrance of the retro rangers at the stonehenge too bad they couldnt of used the mmpr themesong

so after hanging out with the turbo rangers and the space rangers then the lost galaxy rangers they decide to put him in a crate to rust? very nice but i guess i would too if he started sounding like that

i love how at the end they have bridge do his buttery motion and its nice to know that adam no has a dojo
more later

Hooray, I didn't see it XD

Hurry encodes, hurryyyy ^^b

Shoes · 07-23-2007, 08:06 PM

Alpha came back!!
I knew it.

ZeltrZach · 07-23-2007, 08:06 PM

Besides Alpha 6's voice.. I enjoyed it.

The whole Power Axe thing was pretty sweet.

Kinda wish Thrax's end wasn't as simple.

=================================

Let me be the first to thank the crew. Obviously we here at Rangerboard have some to do with what goes into these episodes. Don't let some people's crappy reviews ever make you think it's not worth it.

insert mandatory "will sum1 upload the ep?"

Slappyfrog · 07-23-2007, 08:07 PM

Two early thoughts:

Adam's morph made my nipples hard.

Alpha's voice as painful to hear. He sounded like Frax.

nickraman · 07-23-2007, 08:07 PM

It was Alpha 6 after all.

Shadowstar · 07-23-2007, 08:07 PM

First post to the forum and it has to be to this thread because, let's face it- that ep was kick ass! 8D

Quantum Wolf · 07-23-2007, 08:07 PM

Good call on this new thread. My mind melted whenever I preused the old one.

I don't have Jetix, so I'll just wait until an encode of part 2.

WhiteTigerZord · 07-23-2007, 08:08 PM

Did Adam have a new morph sequence?

GreenNinja · 07-23-2007, 08:08 PM

Overall, compared to History and Wormhole, I would watch this episode again. It had one thing the past two didn't: solid, internal consistency, and plenty of past references. The battles may have gone a little excessively with the wire-fu and explosions, but they were cool. Also nice to see the new sequences for Adam and Bridge.

At the end, all we can do is assume that Bridge mindwipes everybody. I'm aware that Sentai footage was here, but it was well-integrated. Seeing the alumni in UDB and SirenBuilder was a nice touch. I'll give it a low 4. Because it held itself together and entertained - just what a team-up should do.

Lord_Etrigan · 07-23-2007, 08:08 PM

I really feel that Adam got the short end of the stick in this team up. Probably because he's not a "Disney-created character" or something stupid like that.

He didn't get the same morphing sequence, he didn't get the classic music... it was as if someone had taken the Black Ranger of old and "remastered" him to horrid effects.

I liked it, Some thoughts that come to mind are, So Sentinel knight absorbed the Sword to give him a new body cool at least he can say more than one word. Adam pwns all. Does Alpha seem Taller? We will never know how Thrax was conceived. Well I gave it a four to me it's just not five material they tried to put to much into the episode like a zord battle and the whole sword thing.

armadadragon · 07-23-2007, 08:09 PM

I guess its time to give up on alpha 5.

Also why was alpha mothballed in the first place. I mean wtf, once the galaxy rangers were done with him they had in placed in a damn box.

Adam remains kickass. Liked the new morphing. They gave it the dino thunder treatment.

They also should have considered a 6th ranger to add to the new/old group.

I think its time to give adam another ranger show(this time as leader).

Caboose · 07-23-2007, 08:09 PM

They kept their Powers in the end & they kept their memories. I wonder if this means the Knight can know restore all old Rangers Powers for being fully restored ?
