That Pink Megaforce Ranger is pretty hot. She reminds me of AJ Lee for some reason. Maybe it's just the similar hairstyles that she and AJ share.

Boom may be the second best comic relief turned badass character in the series since Bulk and Skull, SPD was all in all awesome.

So whose is everyone's favorite and least favorite disposable foot soldiers/grunts in Power Rangers? My favorite would have to be the Rinshi from Jungle Fury, I like the whole Chinese ghost motif and this was I think the only time in history the name was unchanged from the Sentai adaptation. Least favorite would have to Lord Zedd's putties yeah they had a strong debut...for about all of two seconds when the large Z on their chest was revealed to be their weak point then they became total jobbers. My favourite foot-soldiers were probably the Taranodrones from Dino Thunder, my least favourite would have to be those big birds from the 3rd series of Mighty Morphin.

What do you think would be the scariest method of torture to get from a PR Big Bad? I can't imagine Mesogog's mind rape thing would be very pleasant, nor would Miratrix's fate of being in a jewel for problem an eternity with nothing and no-one.

No matter how ridiculous her haircuts were, I still maintain that Miratrix was one of the prettiest Power Rangers girls ever, even though according to the actress Ria Vandervis (awesome name) the people who were doing her hair couldn't decide what kind of hair they wanted her to have. From this To this She's pretty much carried on a recent tradition that the recent PR series have, the sidekick/goon/henchman was more competent than the actual big bad (the exception being Mesagog who was a phenomenal villain) Zergene from Ninja Storm was better than Lothor, The A-Squad from SPD were cooler than Gruumm and to an extent Goldar was more interesting than Rita until Zedd came into the picture, can't the right handman/woman just take over the position of the main villain because they'd do a more competent job.

She's pretty good looking. Of recent Villain female sidekicks, I like Adelaide Kane and Lothar's niece Marah, especially as the Purple Ranger.

I agree, it's a shame that she pretty much got the worst fate out of all of the OO villains, she was trapped in a jewel with no hope of escaping and with nothing around her, that's some And I Must Scream stuff right there, surely the best thing to do if you're a PR villain is to go it alone then no-one can backstab you. Marah was the one who had the bee motif and Kapri was the one with the pink hair right?

That was pretty interesting to see some development in the villains rather than it just be 'conquer the earth' I think another villain I liked was Broodwing from SPD who was motivated by profit since he was a mercenary.

From what I could tell from the History of Power Rangers I watched, since I haven't watched full seasons of any Rangers in a long time, it seems like she went psycho when she merged with Deviot.

Oh gotcha, I didn't mind the nieces as much but I did find it cool when the trashed the Ninja Ops because it showed that when they wanted to, even the two who had been shown to be spoiled, whiny and bratty could still cause a lot of damage, the fact that she also had a brief relationship with Dustin was interesting.

I'm addicted to that series, I really like Linkara from what little I've seen of him and I can't wait for him to review Operation Overdrive, no matter how bad the season is it seems like he's always got something good to say about it which is really refreshing.

So I've been watching Zyuranger. Im not going to derail this into aSentai discussion, as we have a thread for that. I'm using this as a comparison.
Burai, by himself, to me, is...justnot that interesting.
So what is it about Tommy that made him so damn awesome? Jason Frank, at least at that point, was definitely NOT the best actor on the show, though was probably the best martial artist.
So what was it about Tommy? What made him so damn awesome?
Keep in mind that I say this as a completely unabashed Tommy Mark.

He wasn't the best actor on the show but I do think that he's the best actor out of the original Ranger team to be honest, as to why he's so awesome, in Dino Thunder he spin kicks a cyborg T-Rex.
