**** Alpha: "Well... Almost nobody!!"

** Honestly, the way that was done, it made it sound like the coins were like keys, and the doors won't ''unlock'' without one. Ivan didn't need to worry about that, and just slid through cracks in the door.

* [[Dangerously Genre Savvy]]: Unlike most of the [[Monster of the Week|Monsters of the Week]], Ivan didn't watch the rangers fight his minions and used the distraction to destroy Zordon's command center.
* [[Darker and Edgier]]: They actually mention several times about people possibly dying, including Zordon and the group of brainwashed parents. Kids are also seen at a Rave of some sort (including Bulk and Skull), smearing themselves with Ivan's Ooze and implying it to be some sort of delinquent party. There is even a news broadcast reporting on the destruction being caused by Ooze's monsters.

** Zordon's words seem to imply that when the rangers lost their powers, Saba disintegrated along with all the other weapons.

* [[Witch with a Capital B]]: Ivan Ooze's insult of Dulcea.

* [[Would Hurt a Child]] / [[Wouldn't Hurt a Child]]: Played with. The Ooze Ivan gives to the kids doesn't turn them into zombies like their parents, but that could be because, Ivan himself doesn't think they are useful in digging out his monsters. The closest Ivan's got to the former, was during the fight between himself and the Ninja-Megazord, when he broke the monorail track the kids were on. However, that was more incidental than intentional.
* [[Your Size May Vary]]: Interestingly, the Zords in the movie are scaled down considerably from the series. Whereas in the show the monster and Megazords are taller than most of the buildings, the Ninja Megazord here couldn't be more than about 10-12 stories tall (individual zords were only about 3 stories tall). This is due to the fact that much of the filming for the CGI was in real locations and not just a model set on a sound stage, the Falconzord especially wouldn't be able to fly between the buildings if it was any bigger. Though the tower Ooze uses as a weapon would have to shrink considerably for it to work the way it does.
