* Porto was part of Divatox's crew, so where was he during the events of the movie?
** Maybe Saban/Fox didn't have his suit or didn't get it in time for filming.



* Why didn't the Rangers use their zords to fight Porto when the latter turned into a giant?

* Why didn't the Rangers use their zords to fight Porto when the latter turned into a giant?giant?
* Justin being able to morph directly contradicts one of the few rules of the Morphing Grid previously established by Zordon, in that he is a kid and not a teenager. During the third season of ''MMPR'', Master Vile turns the Rangers into children, because in that form, they're unable to morph. That's what necessitated the use of the Zeo Crystal to turn the world back to normal, so they could become teenagers again and thus regain the ability to morph. As ALL of the morphers are connected to the same Morphing Grid, it doesn't make sense that the Turbo Morpher should be any different than the Power Morphers by allowing a kid to become a Power Ranger.
** It could be that those past issues prompted Zordon and Alpha to create morphers that ''would'' allow children to morph if the right candidate came along.

*** Or if he does, they could be living too far away to help, which begs the question as to why Mr. Stewart and Justin didn't move there. There's plenty of folks who'd blame Mr. Stewart for their daughter's death, even if he had nothing to do with it. We're never quite told how Mrs. Stewart died either; it could have been anything from dying in childbirth (unlikely, as Justin seems to be able to remember his mom) to cancer or other illnesses.

** The movie establishes that the Turbo powers are based on Lerigot's Golden Key, and are needed to cross dimensions to where Maligore was sealed. They didn't lose the Zeo powers, they just weren't suited for this specific mission.

*** The Fridge section for Zeo cites the in-universe explanation of the Zeo Crystal's nature as a reason for the downgrade. Supposedly the Zeo powers would continue building overtime, to the point where simply morphing could release a destructive amount of energy on the surrounding area, and potentially even warp the minds of the Rangers and turn them into dark, pragmatic beings who aren't heroic in their actions. The Zeo powers were basically used out of desperation against the Machine Empire, while Divatox and her crew were a step down in threat, and didn't need such extreme measures to defeat.

** Welp, we know that [[spoiler:Tommy, at least, still has his -- "[[Series/PowerRangersNinjaSteel Dimensions in Danger]]" shows him using his Zeo V powers as part of his Master Morpher. It's possible the other Zeo Rangers still have theirs, as well.]]

** Look at the complications. Dairangers: sixth Ranger, many monsters already used, but most important, mechas already used, so forget. Jetman: the Sentai itself was aired in France, and the immediate previous ones also were, at least some episodes. And it was 5 years old. One year of special effect quality progress is not a big deal, but in the 90s, 5 years are a big gap. If you have to reach even older Sentai which had fewer episodes aired in France, it will be even worse, and those Sentai are seen poorly compared to Jetman.
** Also, adapting previous year's Sentai makes toy production easier, which may be one of the reasons it is written in the contract.
** There’s also the concern of costume wear and tear - Many of the older monster suits were already breaking down by this point, notably Rito’s being pretty much unusable sometime between the time Zeo ended and In Space started. The older pre-Zyuranger costumes had probably been either lost, damaged, or cannibalized for parts, so there couldn’t be any pick-up shots in American footage without spending the money to completely recreate the older suits.

* That being said, while it's said that Tommy's skipping the graduation to get some practice in racing during the first episode of Turbo, there's no mention of his family at all minus his uncle. If Tommy's family-including his brother David-is anything like mine, they would have wanted to be at his graduation. Out of all the season 1 Rangers, Tommy's parents are the only ones we never meet; even in ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers'' 'Return of an Old Friend', Tommy's parents never enter, nor are they indicated to have been captured with the remainder of the parents. This is another instance, several years later, where we have a situation where his parents should have been there (along with David Trueheart and also possibly Sam) and weren't. Erik Frank wouldn't pass away until several years later, so his actor was available to reprise his role.



** Dimitria's actress (Carol Hoyt) was also Divatox. So.... maybe she was wearing her Divatox costume under her white shroud and recording from the waist up.

** If that whole mess with the Ninjazords are any indication, the Zords have precautions that prevent anyone besides the Rangers from using them. Dismantling them, on the other hand...
* TJ mentions that he always wanted to be a Power Ranger as a kid. Huh? Aside from the Wild West Rangers, Power Rangers have only existed in their universe for 4 years at ''most'', and it's a bit weird for a teenager to say "as a kid" when referring to when they were 12. So has TJ done research about Zordon's previous teams in his spare time, or is this just another side effect of Master Vile [[WebVideo/HistoryOfPowerRangers beating up the space-time continuum for its lunch money]]?
** That is actually a plausible theory. The Rangers and their peers are maybe 11/12 ''at best'' during the MMAR miniseries and somewhere between 8 and 10 at worst. The Power Rangers TJ could be remembering are the Alien Rangers of Aquitar. Depending on where TJ was living at the time, they could have very well been on the news and in the papers in the surrounding areas, if not in the papers of California. Given the RetCon regarding Peter Parker in [[Film/IronMan2 Iron Man 2]], it's very likely that TJ was one of those kids who saw the Alien Rangers and was like 'I want to be one of them'.

* Another point about Zeo: as the Ranger gave up the Zeozords as well as the Zeo powers, we can assume that the Zeozord fleet still remains in storage in the hangar bay. Besides the obvious FanficFuel, there is a bigger question. What's there to stop someone from finding the Zeozords and especially use them for evil purposes? Imagine if a mad scientist, a weapons developer, a Third World dictator, etc found the Zeozords and made use of them or even reverse-engineered the technology!

** Look at the complications. Dairangers: sixth Ranger, many monsters already used, but most important, mechas already used, so forget. Jetman: the Sentai itself was aired in France, and the immediate previous also were, at least some episodes. And it was 5 years old. One year of special effect quality progress is not a big deal, but in the 90s, 5 years are a big gap. If you have to reach even older Sentai which had fewer episodes aired in France, it will be even worse, and those Sentai are seen poorly compared to Jetman.

Tzachor, with his severely and superficially boner for the physical appeal of Sentai (severely and superficially, because it's clear he does not understand Sentai's own capacity for narrative depth, only in the flashiness), probably pushed for Carranger's use then forcing elements and footage from the show that were incongruent with the general mood of PR before that, just coz "the Sentai did it, so we should do it too".
