History Headscratchers / PowerRangersMegaforce

*** This is PowerRangers, where people can breathe on the moon, instead of bleeding they have sparks fly (yes even out of the suits), they are constantly hit by explosions yet never get any burns and are still able to hear, there are human on other planets other than Earth, and countless other illogical events occur that break the laws of everything. In short, Power Rangers is a series that makes anyone with a science education past kindergarten face palm.
** Considering the original series is canon and that [[PowerRangersZeo a race of sentient robots]] canonically existed, it makes more sense than it seems.

*** He also said that they would be running on perpetual motion engines. Isn't that deemed impossible by scientific minds because it supposedly breaks the laws of thermodynamics?

** I got the implication that they are only similar to Earth insects. They are still aliens, yes, but they are insect-like, so Creepox and Vrak tend to reference Earth insects a lot as a reference point.

* So are the Warstar aliens or not? They are initially stated to be that, but then Vrox makes several comments that seem to imply that they're descended from Earth insects. Which one is it?

** One would assume so that the audience doesn't notice that they are wearing different clothes during the stock morphing sequence. (This was incredibly noticeable in other seasons. Zeo being the worst offender.)

* Why do the rangers wear the exact same outfits in every single episode?

** He probably was talking about A.I. and, in the great discussion of A.I. as a person or as a tool, he is in the side that says robots are people too.

* Noah the scientific mind of the group believes robots are a species???

* Okay, it is nitpicking but it still kind of bothers me. Why couldn't Noah pick up Jake's axe? Jake was able to swing it around unmorphed, so why can't Noah swing it morphed? I mean come on, [[Series/PowerRangersSPD Bridge threw a car]] and [[Series/PowerRangersOperationOverdrive Adam split the ground open]] for example. Even if their powers aren't as strong it can't be a far stretch to think the guy can lift a seemingly 50 pound axe.

How exactly will the Legend War work for the adaptation? The Zyuranger suits alone were reused over three separate adaptations, meaning Dairanger won't be used at all aside from Kibaranger. Then there's the fact that the whole team from Power Rangers Turbo aside from Justin was reused for Power Rangers in Space, while the entire team from Zeo was just a transplant of the original team. Speaking of the original team, that brings me to Tommy. He alone played four separate Rangers (five if you count his time as the Red Turbo Ranger).
* Easy, there's been more than enough substitutes, replacements and clones over the years. Only real question is Tommy.
** MMPR: Jason-Red, Zack-Black, Kimberly-Pink, Aisha (or an always-helmeted never-speaking Trini)-Yellow, Billy-Blue, Tom (the clone) back from the Colonial Era-Green, not sure about White (maybe the White Stranger from the Wild West, picked up by Tom on his way to the present?)
*** Aquitar Rangers there to use the Kakuranger suits
** Zeo: Tommy-Red (its his Red role, if he has one role, it'd be this one), Tanya-Yellow, Adam-Black, Rocky-Blue, Kat-Pink, Trey-Gold
*** Alternatively, Tommy goes with his Dino Thunder suit because its bonded to him exclusively, and gives the Zeonizers to his brother David Trueheart (who would also never be shown helmetless or speak)
** Turbo: The Robot Duplicates of TJ, Carlos, Ashley, and Cassie from ''The Robot Ranger'', plus Justin as a token human since he doesn't need a robot to cover for him
** Space: As in canon
** Dino Thunder: Not sure how Tommy'd cover this one, since he never had a clone associated with this role. Maybe Anton Mercer will somehow cover for Tommy for this role as penance, unless Tommy goes with this role and gets his brother to cover for Zeo.
* Gonna going into WildMassGuessing here. I'm thinking either they get really complex and stagger it out. Say for example, start with just the original six Mighty Morphin' Rangers, then have Tommy switch from green to white. Then add the Alien Rangers, then add the Zeo Rangers and have Tommy switch from White to Red, etc. Granted that would take a long time and probably be extremely expensive. The other possible way? Clones. Just simply say that Gosei creates clones for every Ranger who had more than one power set and after the battle the clones merge together with their originals. Simple.
* Also, keep in mind that its almost guaranteed that nine out of ten returning rangers in the War will be non-speaking morph-only roles, due to the simple improbability of getting all hundred-something actors to return (particularly when Thuy Trang is dead and Danny Slavin needed to have a favor called in to get involved with the last reunion he was invited to); the explanation will likely be left as an exercise for the sufficiently pedantic viewer to explain, as I did above, much like they did the repowerings shown in Forever Red.

* So, if Zordon left Gosei behind to help protect the Earth, why wasn't ''he'' there for Turbo instead of Dimitria? Where's he been the past fifteen years of alien attacks?
** Apparently he was only meant to select a team if something really ''big'' happened. Let's be honest, Divatox was not the worst thing the rangers ever faced.
* How is it that the Megaforce rangers never heard of Power Rangers or aliens before, if there's been twenty years of near-nonstop alien attacks?
