Power Rangers RPM/YMMV: Difference between revisions

Line 2:

* [[And the Fandom Rejoiced]]: For the series as a whole; badly needed after the [[Dork Age]] of Bruce Kalish. The return of Judd Lynn -- the showrunner responsible for the string of seasons many considered to be the show's peak, also brought about rejoicing.

** Also, news of a crossover with ''[[Power Rangers Samurai]]'' indicates that Saban will ''NOT'' be [[Retcon|retconning]] the [[After the End]] setting; instead, the ''RPM'' Rangers will be from an [[Alternate Universe]]. Needless to say, many fans are happy with this decision.

* [[~~Authors~~ Saving Throw]]: After a long line of [[Dork Age]] silliness, RPM is funnier, smarter and pulls out all the stops in an attempt to convince Disney to continue the series - or at least finish it with a bang. The attempted rescue didn't work on Disney, [[Power Rangers Samurai|but the series was saved anyway.]]

* [[Base Breaker]]: Gem and Gemma. There is a good reason fans call them the [[Fan Nickname|Marmite Twins.]]

** Also, some hate the series for making everything the previous Ranger teams fought for be for nothing. Mind you, [[Word of God]] says this is [[Alternate Continuity|not the case]]...[[Armed With Canon|unless they change their minds later.]]

Line 81:

** The final battle of Go-Onger was pretty dang epic for how comical the series was. {{spoiler|Venjix doesn't even grow himself to giant size at all and gets blown up by a ''building'' getting dropped on his head.}} They couldn't have used the Go-Onger footage for a true final battle?

*** Well, it's possible they couldn't edit the footage as the Go-On rangers appear without their helmets.

* [[Unfortunate Implications]]: Barring Gem and Gemma (who are nuts) and [[Hey ~~Its~~ That Guy|Koichi's wife]], most Asians seen in the show appeared in the pilot's prison brawl.

** Add to the list that there is [[Token Girl|only one]] woman in all of Corinth who has clearance to operate the HQ.

** They made an active attempt to avert this in "The Dome Dolls", making it a point that the problem was losing a portion of their defense force and not losing men specifically.

* [[The Untwist]]: It took twenty-five out of thirty-two episodes to confirm that {{spoiler|Tenaya is Dillon's sister}}. [[I Knew It|Everyone Knew It]]. No, literally, '''Everyone''' knew it...The fact that this particular subplot [[Power Rangers in Space|was done before]] made the whole thing completely obvious.

** [[The Un Reveal]]: Until then, most obviously in "Prisoners", the series seemed to be playing keep away with the secret.

* [[Woobie Destroyer of Worlds]]: Everything that's happened so far is because {{spoiler|Dr. K wanted to go outside the Alphabet Soup facility, where she had been imprisoned (under the pretense of a sun allergy) for the last decade}}. Since it was never intended for the Venjix Virus to spread beyond {{spoiler|Alphabet Soup}}, this also crosses with [[Mike Nelson Destroyer of Worlds]].
